Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage
Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Aaron Joseph Johnson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Jazz and Radio in the United States: Mediation, Genre, and Patronage Aaron Joseph Johnson This dissertation is a study of jazz on American radio. The dissertation's meta-subjects are mediation, classification, and patronage in the presentation of music via distribution channels capable of reaching widespread audiences. The dissertation also addresses questions of race in the representation of jazz on radio. A central claim of the dissertation is that a given direction in jazz radio programming reflects the ideological, aesthetic, and political imperatives of a given broadcasting entity. I further argue that this ideological deployment of jazz can appear as conservative or progressive programming philosophies, and that these tendencies reflect discursive struggles over the identity of jazz. The first chapter, "Jazz on Noncommercial Radio," describes in some detail the current (circa 2013) taxonomy of American jazz radio. The remaining chapters are case studies of different aspects of jazz radio in the United States. Chapter 2, "Jazz is on the Left End of the Dial," presents considerable detail to the way the music is positioned on specific noncommercial stations. Chapter 3, "Duke Ellington and Radio," uses Ellington's multifaceted radio career (1925-1953) as radio bandleader, radio celebrity, and celebrity DJ to examine the medium's shifting relationship with jazz and black American creative ambition.

What Is Democracy Now! 010510
Democracy Now!, is an international, independent, daily news hour, hosted by award-winning journalists Amy Goodman and Juan Gonzalez. By featuring a rich diversity of voices often ignored by the corporate media, Democracy Now! presents in-depth information, historical perspectives, and substantive public debate on the most pressing issues of the day. What began in 1996 as a daily election program on a dozen community radio stations has rapidly grown into the largest public media collaboration in North America. Democracy Now! is broadcast in English and in Spanish on more than 800 radio and television stations across the country. The program airs on Pacifica, NPR stations, low power FM, College and Community Radio stations as well as Public Access TV and PBS stations, and on both TV satellite networks -- DISH Network channel 9415 Free Speech TV, 9410 Link TV, and on Direct TV channel 375. The program -- in audio, video and transcript form -- is also available in its entirety on the internet. Time Magazine named Democracy Now! its “Pick of the Podcasts,” along with NBC’s Meet the Press. Democracy Now! continues to attract public awareness and professional recognition for its work. As a growing number of authors introduce their books on the program, Crain’s cited Democracy Now! for propelling political books onto bestseller lists. In the past year, Democracy Now! was featured in O Magazine, Le Monde diplomatique, The Washington Post, and The International Herald Tribune. Democracy Now! accepts no advertising income, corporate underwriting, or government funding. The program has grown, and maintained its editorial independence through the generous support of its dedicated audience and committed donors.

Honoring Amy Goodman & Glenn Greenwald
Izzy Stone 1st Annual Founded in 1953, I.F. Stone’s Weekly stood bravely against Sen. Joe McCarthy and the deceit propelling the Vietnam War, including the Tonkin Gulf hoax – inspiring generations of journalists and activists. “In this age of corporation men, I am an independent capitalist, the owner of my own enterprise,” Izzy Stone wrote in 1963. zzy Award “I am a wholly independent newspaperman, standing alone, without organizational or party backing, beholden to no one but my good readers.” honoring “All governments lie,” said Izzy, the ultimate un-embedded reporter. He launched his ﬁrst independent publication at age 14. He went on to become a daily reporter, Amy Goodman & Glenn Greenwald editor, columnist and powerful journalistic advocate for FDR’s New Deal at the then-liberal New York Post.

Annual Report FY2017
Annual Report FY2017 CONNECT TO YOUR CENT ER http://lgbtbrooklyn.org/ Brooklyn Community Pride Center | 2017 From the Executive Director We did it! After many months of negotiation, planning, construction, and packing, we will move into our Bedford- Stuyvesant home at Restoration Plaza on August 15. Through it all, we managed to keep our doors open Monday through Friday, 12-8pm, with two full-time and three part-time staffers, and dozens of incredible volunteers. We aspire to longer open hours but, for now, that too is cause for celebration. Yet all around us are familiar threats. The broader political environment continues to attack the LGBTQ+ community in general; people of color and transgender and gender nonconforming people in particular. One theme keeps emerging over and over as I reflect on these things, and the year: It’s heroism. By definition, a hero is a person or character of a literary work who, in the face of danger, combats adversity through impressive feats of ingenuity, bravery or strength, often sacrificing their own personal concerns for a greater good. Dr. Demetre and Carlos Menchaca, honorees at the 2017 Community Leadership Awards and Gala, are heroes. They soar above common bounds in ways that inspire me every day. From AIDS prevention to immigration advocacy, these two are heroic warriors: queer bedrocks of our community. But they’re not the only ones. If you are reading this, it means you are among us: a friend, ally, or direct member of the LGBTQ+ community. You could be a visitor to the Center who takes advantage of all that we have to offer, a donor, volunteer, staff or board member, committee member, or a program officer at a foundation.
