About
Jamie Moshin is a Lecturer in Communication and Media and Liberal Arts. He is a Critical Rhetorician, whose scholarly interests lie primarily at the intersection of identity and discourse. In particular, he focuses on American Jewish identity, and what its constructions and representations tell us about liminal Whiteness, appropriation and authenticity, and unusual identity performances. His work has appeared in many scholarly venues, and has addressed such issues as "new" performances of Jewishness that resist Whiteness, the repression of "taboo" language in the media, the representation of marginalized masculine identities, and the intersection of tragedy and humor.
