ABSTRACT Heeding Karma Chavez’s (2015) call to imagine rhetoric as “something entirely different,” I introduce what I call an Afrafuturist Feminist (AFF) rhetorical approach with the aim of offering one means by which rhetorical studies can move beyond normative white constructions of citizenship. In this piece, I flesh out a theoretical framework that explores the ways Black women’s truthtelling engineers rival conceptions of Blackness, creating spaces for us to reimagine what citizenship can look like in the lived experiences of Black Americans. I invoke the phrase, “in and out of frame,” to preliminarily consider how Black women like Assata Shakur and Cardi B employ rhetoric as threat to negotiate citizenship in the 20th and 21st centuries.

滑入和滑出框架：Afrafuturist 女权主义对黑人女性和美国公民的定位

摘要 注意到 Karma Chavez (2015) 呼吁将修辞想象为“完全不同的东西”，我介绍了我所谓的 Afrafuturist Feminist (AFF) 修辞方法，目的是提供一种手段，使修辞研究可以超越公民的规范白人结构. 在这篇文章中，我充实了一个理论框架，探讨了黑人女性说真话的工程师如何与黑人的概念相抗衡，为我们创造了空间，让我们重新想象公民在美国黑人的生活经历中的样子。我援引“框架内和框架外”这句话来初步考虑像 Assata Shakur 和 Cardi B 这样的黑人女性如何在 20 世纪和 21 世纪利用修辞作为谈判公民身份的威胁。
