Doug,

A very good source for rhetoric / identity / social change is Jay
Lemke's Textual
Politics: Discourse and Social Dynamics, London: Taylor and Francis,
1995. The
entire book is relevant; however, there's a particular chapter on gender
and textual
politics. Lemke's perspective is exceptionally interesting because he
approaches
rhetoric from a very interdisciplinary perspective. As you may know,
he's a
professor of Education at CUNY, but he's also a physicist. Jean
