  • PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 and 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak a Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate
    PERFORMED IDENTITIES: HEAVY METAL MUSICIANS BETWEEN 1984 AND 1991 Bradley C. Klypchak A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2007 Committee: Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Dr. John Makay Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Ron E. Shields Dr. Don McQuarie © 2007 Bradley C. Klypchak All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Jeffrey A. Brown, Advisor Between 1984 and 1991, heavy metal became one of the most publicly popular and commercially successful rock music subgenres. The focus of this dissertation is to explore the following research questions: How did the subculture of heavy metal music between 1984 and 1991 evolve and what meanings can be derived from this ongoing process? How did the contextual circumstances surrounding heavy metal music during this period impact the performative choices exhibited by artists, and from a position of retrospection, what lasting significance does this particular era of heavy metal merit today? A textual analysis of metal- related materials fostered the development of themes relating to the selective choices made and performances enacted by metal artists. These themes were then considered in terms of gender, sexuality, race, and age constructions as well as the ongoing negotiations of the metal artist within multiple performative realms. Occurring at the juncture of art and commerce, heavy metal music is a purposeful construction. Metal musicians made performative choices for serving particular aims, be it fame, wealth, or art. These same individuals worked within a greater system of influence. Metal bands were the contracted employees of record labels whose own corporate aims needed to be recognized.

  • 2020 Commission for Health Advocacy and Equity Legislative Report
    RHODE ISLAND Commission for Health Advocacy and Equity Legislative Report 2020 “Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in healthcare is the most shocking and inhumane.” Martin Luther King, Jr. Dear fellow Rhode Islanders, We are pleased to support this important report of the Rhode Island Commission for Health Advocacy and Equity (CHAE). The goal of this report is to highlight how factors like race, gender, and class intersect with historical injustices and forces in our institutions and systems to drive health inequities for many individuals and families in Rhode Island. The Rhode Island Department of Health (RIDOH) and the CHAE share an important focus. We are working to build a Rhode Island where every person has a fair and just opportunity to be healthy, prosper, and reach their full potential – regardless of race, ethnicity, ZIP code, income, education, employment, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any other factor. This work requires a deep commitment to addressing the root causes of health issues in our communities, including structural racism, discrimination and their consequences. These consequences include poverty and unequal access to good jobs with fair pay, affordable housing, safe neighborhoods, and more. This is a big task. But we all share responsibility for getting it done. We’re also making progress every day, in big and small ways. For example, this report uses data from the recently developed Rhode Island Health Equity Measures. For the first time, we have adopted a standard dataset we can use across sectors to measure the factors in our communities, like education and transportation, that affect up to 80% of our health outcomes.
