Subclaims¶

q1 i? The article argues that not conforming to the norms of white femininity may result in credibility deficit and tracker prejudice for black girls. → Göktürk 2021 q1 i? The article argues that, in Ispa-Landa's study, testimonial injustice can be eliminated through black girls' personal efforts, while hermeneutical injustice is structural and cannot be eroded by personal efforts. → Göktürk 2021 (2) q1 i? The article argues that a systematic absence of knowledge about black girls' social experience holds unjust distributions of credibility, trust and recognition in place and contributes to the institutionalized hierarchy of knowledge. → Göktürk 2021 (3)

Göktürk 2021¶

Göktürk, D. (2021). Epistemic Injustice and Cultural Processes in Education. Kastamonu Education Journal, 29(1), 218-227. https://doi.org/10.24106/kefdergi.732138

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

The author's application of testimonial injustice to Ispa-Landa's (2013) ethnography: nonconformity "may result in credibility deficit and tracker prejudice for black girls". A theoretical argument; the article reports no measurement of credibility.

"Not conforming to the norms of white femininity may result in credibility deficit and tracker prejudice for black girls since prejudices imposed by negative stereotypes track them in diverse spheres of social life."

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

The author's argument in the Discussion, applying Fricker to Ispa-Landa's study: "hermeneutical injustice is structural and cannot be eroded by personal efforts", unlike testimonial injustice. Theoretical argument; no data.

"On the other hand, considering Ispa- Landa’s study, the critical point is while testimo nial injustice can be eliminated through personal efforts of black girls, hermeneutical injustice is structural and cannot be eroded by personal efforts."

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

The author's argument: a "systematic absence of knowledge about the speaker’s social experience" holds unjust distributions of credibility, trust and recognition in place in a pedagogic medium. Theoretical argument; no data.

"In a pedagogic medium, a systematic absence of knowledge about the speaker’s social experience, black girls’ social experience, holds unjust distributions of credibility, trust, recognition in place; contributes to the institutionalized hierarchy of knowledge; and designs the codes of relations of recognition."
