Download or read book Tainted Witness written by Leigh Gilmore and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-17 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1991, Anita Hill's testimony during Clarence Thomas's Senate confirmation hearing brought the problem of sexual harassment to a public audience. Although widely believed by women, Hill was defamed by conservatives and Thomas was confirmed to the Supreme Court. The tainting of Hill and her testimony is part of a larger social history in which women find themselves caught up in a system that refuses to believe what they say. Hill's experience shows how a tainted witness is not who someone is, but what someone can become. Why are women so often considered unreliable witnesses to their own experiences? How are women discredited in legal courts and in courts of public opinion? Why is women's testimony so often mired in controversies fueled by histories of slavery and colonialism? How do new feminist witnesses enter testimonial networks and disrupt doubt? Tainted Witness examines how gender, race, and doubt stick to women witnesses as their testimony circulates in search of an adequate witness. Judgment falls unequally upon women who bear witness, as well-known conflicts about testimonial authority in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries reveal. Women's testimonial accounts demonstrate both the symbolic potency of women's bodies and speech in the public sphere and the relative lack of institutional security and control to which they can lay claim. Each testimonial act follows in the wake of a long and invidious association of race and gender with lying that can be found to this day within legal courts and everyday practices of judgment, defining these locations as willfully unknowing and hostile to complex accounts of harm. Bringing together feminist, literary, and legal frameworks, Leigh Gilmore provides provocative readings of what happens when women's testimony is discredited. She demonstrates how testimony crosses jurisdictions, publics, and the unsteady line between truth and fiction in search of justice.

At the minimum, I have the power to do so." Sebastian Alzmek has it all influence, power, beauty, and AIDS. When he emotionally died a decade ago, he buried an insecure, unattractive individual and erased his past. Now he lives a second life based on society's perception, using his silence to mark his victims and make them part of his secret society of the undead. Sebastian is on a one-man campaign to remind the world that AIDS is still alive. No one can stop him from his hunt-not the law, the CDC or even the victims themselves.

His past soon catches up with him, and he is reminded that life itself is beautiful, even though it is too late. At the end of the journey, Sebastian asks the ultimate question: was it worth the fight, or will history repeat itself?

Download or read book Tainted Milk written by Maia Boswell-Penc and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tainted Milk provides an in-depth analysis of the debate about infant nourishment issues, with a particular focus on environmentally contaminated breastmilk. Maia Boswell-Penc asks why feminists and environmentalists have, for the most part, remained relatively quiet about the fact that environmental toxins have been appearing in breastmilk. She argues that feminists avoid the topic because of their fear of focusing on biological mothering and essentialist thinking, while environmentalists are reluctant to be perceived as fearmongers advocating formula use and contributing to public hysteria. Boswell-Penc also points to the continuing racism, classism, ageism, and corporatization that leaves the less privileged among us more vulnerable.
