Biden serves as an exemplar of the “ideal stepmother” because she fills the role of a deceased mother, practices intensive mothering, and deliberately obscures her status as a stepmother. Renegar and Cole argue that rather than stepmothers embodying the destruction of the nuclear family, they show us another way to parent. However, even the language used to normalize stepmothering is caught up in and fraught with the same social and ideological contradictions that are so present in the wicked stepmother archetype. This chapter explores an emerging version of stepmothering that attempts to, and perhaps successfully does move past the age-old trope of wickedness. They call this the Ideal Stepmother and see it embodied in the way that First Lady Dr. Jill Biden was introduced to the public at the Democratic National Convention in 2019.}, author={Renegar, Valerie and Cole, Kirsti}, year={2023}, month={Jan} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Conclusion}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-8}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-8}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Conflicts in Shared Governance and Policy Development}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-7}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-7}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Developing Effective, Equitable, and Transparent Policies}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-4}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-4}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Doing Governance Work}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-3}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-3}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Engaging in Shared Governance Work to Support Educational Opportunities}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-5}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-5}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Introduction}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-1}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-1}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @inbook{renegar_cole_2023, title={Introduction: Resisting Rhetorics of Mothering, Intensive Mothering, and Biological Determinism}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003311799-1}, DOI={10.4324/9781003311799-1}, abstractNote={This chapter investigates the way that new rhetorics of mothering can expand the realm of maternal caregivers beyond the biological definitions of motherhood. It is important to note that when scholarship refers to "mothers," particularly intensive mothers, motherhood is exclusionary. Many women do not have access to the social archetype of mother because of their race, nationality, religion, class, skin color, or gender identity. And of course, it is paramount to acknowledge the lasting resistance to intensive mothering. While motherhood is both contextual and contingent, the dominant and paradoxical portrayal of mothers is both authoritative and undermining. In the United States, however, intensive mothering has become the prevailing cultural expectation for mothers. In refiguring motherhood, the authors call the biological characteristics associated with motherhood into question and open up space for different versions of motherhood to emerge. The chapter also presents an overview of the concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book.}, author={Renegar, Valerie and Cole, Kirsti}, year={2023}, month={Jan} } @book{cole_renegar_2023, title={Refiguring Motherhood Beyond Biology}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003311799}, DOI={10.4324/9781003311799}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Renegar, Valerie}, year={2023}, month={Jan} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Shared Governance}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-2}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-2}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @inbook{cole_giordano_hassel_2023, title={Strategies for Implementing and Assessing Change}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781003257974-6}, DOI={10.4324/9781003257974-6}, author={Cole, Kirsti and Giordano, Joanne Baird and Hassel, Holly}, year={2023}, month={Jun} } @article{bivens_cole_heilig_2020, title={The Activist Syllabus as Technical Communication and the Technical Communicator as Curator of Public Intellectualism}, volume={29}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-85076502716&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.1080/10572252.2019.1635211}, abstractNote={Recently, educators have created crowdsourced syllabi using social media.

In this article, we examine the rhetoric of self-help books, one of the few print genres aimed at stepmothers. We argue that these texts reify a particular identity by perpetuating cultural stereotypes, reinforcing negative connotations about stepmothers, and providing inadequate solutions to common issues that arise as a result. The books reinscribe the primacy of biological mothering and relegate stepmothers to a secondary status at the same time as they subject stepmothers to the contradictory expectations of intensive mothering. The privilege of motherhood is granted, deflected, and denied across these advice books. We seek to move beyond the negative expectations of this common parenting role and point to the inadequacies of the solutions offered in self-help books to expand and diversify the visibility of and possibilities for alternative familial configurations.}, number={4}, journal={Women's Studies in Communication}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Renegar, Valerie R. and Cole, Kirsti K.}, year={2019}, pages={511–533} } @article{bivens_cole_2018, title={The Grotesque Protest in Social Media as Embodied, Political Rhetoric}, volume={42}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-85035131262&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.1177/0196859917735650}, abstractNote={ The grotesque protest—emboldened through social media—employs the body’s fluids to push back against attempts to legislate bodies. Although social media use is commonly understood as engaging audience members who share ideological frames, it can instead diversify protest networks and encourage discourse. Social media provides individuals opportunities to resist attempts to control bodies and to reinsert individuals’ voices in political discourse aimed to exclude those bodies. The body functions as the modality in which the communicative act occurs, and the body’s fluids function as the medium for inventing disruptive, grotesque protest strategies. Activists such as Rupi Kaur, The Satanic Temple’s Jex Blackmore, and those using Twitter hashtags #periodsforPence and #PEEOTUS use bodily fluids and tissues to emphasize resistance to political movements attempting to control and legislate bodies. The protest campaigns show that the grotesque can be an effective tool for opening space, transgressing boundaries, demanding attention, and equalizing differential political power relations. }, number={1}, journal={Journal of Communication Inquiry}, author={Bivens, K.M. and Cole, K.}, year={2018}, pages={5–25} } @book{cole_hassel_schell_2017, title={Remodeling shared governance: Feminist decision making and resistance to academic neoliberalism}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-85028719695&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.4324/9781315523217}, journal={Surviving Sexism in Academia: Strategies for Feminist Leadership}, author={Cole, K. and Hassel, H. and Schell, E.E.}, year={2017}, pages={13–28} } @book{surviving sexism in academia_2017, url={https://www.routledge.com/Surviving-Sexism-in-Academia-Strategies-for-Feminist-Leadership/Cole-Hassel/p/book/9781138696846}, journal={Routledge Press}, year={2017}, month={Jun} } @article{bivens_cole_2017, title={The Grotesque Protest in Social Media as Embodied, Political Rhetoric}, DOI={0196859917735650}, journal={Journal of Communication Inquiry}, author={Bivens, Kristin Marie and Cole, Kirsti}, year={2017}, month={Oct} } @article{cole_2015, title={"It's like she's eager to be verbally abused": Twitter, trolls, and (en)gendering disciplinary rhetoric}, volume={15}, url={http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-84924657365&partnerID=MN8TOARS}, DOI={10.1080/14680777.2015.1008750}, abstractNote={Commonplaces about feminists, about women's rights, bodies, and rhetoric participate in a cycle of violence and consciousness-raising.
