In this response, the authors critically engage bullying, which they understand as an intersectional cultural performance of/for power in relational context. They offer embodied experiences as individuals who survived bullying, performed bullying, bully, and who perpetuated institutionalized through curriculum and policy. Certainly, bullying holds the potential to traumatize; and the authors write that this is absolutely the case for these authors. However, rather than assuming a compulsory role of victim, they implore both their readers and themselves to hold steadfast to the critical labor that reflexivity demands. That is, to engage the ways they have been bullied even as they implicate themselves as bullies across intersecting lines of identification and embodiment. Doing so refuses a propensity to victimize the self as they foreclose on the ways they bully others. Holding themselves accountable for the ways they have bullied others--even as they have been bullied--is vital reflexive labor.
