Alyssa Kahn (MA, University of Nevada, Las Vegas) is a part-time lecturer at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Alyssa studies rhetoric and environmental justice, particularly around food waste and Indigenous rights. Her thesis rhetorically analyzes Awake, a documentary film about the protests at Standing Rock. Her project blends Burkean theory with ecofeminist rhetoric to argue that the counter-story of Awake proposes an ecology of transcendence to make sense of human-nature relationships. Alyssa will soon be applying to PhD programs after graduating from UNLV to continue studying environmental rhetoric and environmental justice. In her free time, she likes to go on hikes and write poetry.
