Wounds materialize in the wake of the event, when rhetoric inadequately indexes what is present in a situation. Such a position bypasses ethics from the transcendental ought or the purely descriptive is to an ethics grounded in an immanent occurrence. To give an example of this kind of rhetorical ethics, I turn to an example of a recent wound, the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, where the pathology of gun violence has created a wound that shattered our rhetorical sensorium. In the immediate aftermath, Emma Gonzales, a student and survivor of the Parkland shooting, seized upon this perspective on the wound to forge a new figure, the Parkland Kid, and with it new lines of argument. I argue her capacity to turn a wounding into a new subject illustrates a new rhetorical ethics that is inclusive; she became a subject of the shooting, the new Parkland Kid, that anyone is welcome to join. My contribution departs from the wound as a damaged attachment for its understanding as a productive force.

(帕克兰)孩子们还好

当言辞不足以说明情况中存在的内容时,伤口就会在事件发生时变成现实。这样的立场从先验观念中绕开了伦理学,或者纯粹地描述是基于一种内在的发生的伦理学。为了举例说明这种修辞道德,我举一个最近的伤口为例,在Marjory Stoneman Douglas高中的枪击案中,枪支暴力的病理学造成了一个伤口,打碎了我们的修辞感官。紧接着,帕克兰德枪击案的幸存者艾玛·冈萨雷斯(Emma Gonzales)抓住这种对伤口的看法,塑造了一个新的人物,“帕克兰德之子”,并提出了新的论点。我认为她将伤势变成一个新话题的能力说明了一种新的包容性修辞伦理。她成为枪击事件的对象,新的Parkland Kid,欢迎任何人加入。我的贡献脱离了伤口,因为它是对生产力的理解,是附着的损伤。
