Communication Afrocentricity African American Rhetoric Resistacne Rhetorical Analysis Mothers of the Movement Critical Theory In this study, I used an Afrocentric rhetorical approach to analyze the rhetoric of mothers of slain children advocating for social justice and police reform after the deaths of black males and females at the hands of police and vigilantes. The speeches include Sybrina Fulton, the mother of Trayvon Martin and the Democratic National convention speech of the self-proclaimed group called the Mothers of the Movement. Using the metatheory of Afrocentricity and paradigmatic adaptation of Afrocentricity, the study will serve as an Afrocentric rhetorical analysis to uncover ways in which a rhetoric of social resistance can be empowering and motivating to its audience members. 2020-11-04 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1592135067647318 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1592135067647318 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
