Amplified by Donald Trump’s handling of the incident, Floyd’s death caused what some would term as a “racial reckoning”—a reckoning that pervaded different parts of American and even international life. As Floyd was killed during an arrest, the matter of public safety did not escape this reckoning, prompting some to call for the defunding of law enforcement and to question what is truly meant by safety in society. In Safe Space Rhetoric and Race in the Academy: A Reckoning, James Noel contends that national discussions about safety should not be excluded from conversations about safety in academia. Noel examines the presence of safe space rhetoric in academia and illustrates the ways that designating safe spaces can be a panacea for chronic institutional problems groups on campus may face. The book unflinchingly interrogates what it means to safe in academia in the hope to find a starting place for radical possibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eContent Warning\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Looking for Haidt and Lukianoff\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter One: American Values\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Two: Trust Thy Neighbor\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Three: On Hypersexuality\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Four: Difficult Lessons\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Five: January 6\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Six: Engerrrllland!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter Seven: November in My Soul\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEpilogue: For Lawrence and Damarie\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfterword\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReferences\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndex\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042700525911,"sku":"9781793655516","price":65.7,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781793655516.jpg?v=1750955240","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/safe-space-rhetoric-and-race-in-the-academy-a-reckoning-9781793655516","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
