Ipse Dixit

In this episode, Elizabeth Berenguer, Associate Professor of Law at Stetson University College of Law, discusses her article "Gut Renovations: Using Critical and Comparative Rhetoric to Remodel How the Law Addresses Privilege and Power," which is co-authored by Lucy Jewel and Teri A. McMurtry-Chubb, and which will be published in the Harvard Latinx Law Review. Berenguer begins by explaining how traditional legal rhetoric encodes troubling assumptions. She explains how alternative forms of rhetoric can help us question discriminatory policies and advance justice and equality. And she provides some examples of how we can implement alternative rhetorical forms. Berenguer is on Twitter at @BerenguerProf.
