ABSTRACT School shootings are mediated by ways of sensing—through seeing bloodless, distant photographs and hearing retroactive eyewitness accounts. Yet at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, students’ cell phones offered a more immediate and immersive experience. This new way of seeing and hearing created a unique rhetoric situation. In the immediate aftermath, Emma González, a student and survivor of the Parkland shooting, seized upon this perspective to invent a new figure, the “Parkland Kid,” a generational stakeholder in the gun debate. The new subject position of the “Parkland Kid” expanded the range of thinkable thoughts, opened novel discursive strategies, and moved the intractable gun debate forward.

感知校园枪击案

摘要 学校枪击事件是通过感知方式进行调节的——通过看到无血的、遥远的照片和听到追溯目击者的叙述。然而在 Marjory Stoneman Douglas 高中，学生的手机提供了更直接和身临其境的体验。这种新的视听方式创造了一种独特的修辞情境。紧接着，帕克兰枪击案的学生和幸存者艾玛·冈萨雷斯 (Emma González) 抓住了这一观点，创造了一个新人物，即“帕克兰小子”，他是枪支辩论中的代际利益相关者。“公园小子”的新主题定位扩大了思考的范围，开启了新颖的话语策略，推动了棘手的枪支辩论。
