  • Nike and the Pigmentation Paradox: African American Representation in Popular Culture from ‘Sambo’ to ‘Air Jordan’
    Nike and the Pigmentation Paradox: African American Representation in Popular Culture from ‘Sambo’ to ‘Air Jordan’ by Scott Warren McVittie A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Scott McVittie, May, 2016 ABSTRACT NIKE AND THE PIGMENTATION PARADOX: AFRICAN AMERICAN REPRESENTATION IN POPULAR CULTURE FROM ‘SAMBO’ TO ‘AIR JORDAN’ Scott McVittie Advisor: University of Guelph Professor Susan Nance Martin Luther King Jr. once remarked: “The economic highway to power has few entry lanes for Negroes.” This thesis investigates this limited-access highway in the context of American culture by analyzing the merger of sports celebrity branding and racial liberalism through a case study of Nike and the Air Jordan brand. As a spokesman for Nike, Michael Jordan was understood as both a symbol of “racial transcendence” and a figure of “racial displacement.” This dual identity spurred an important sociological debate concerning institutional racism in American society by unveiling the paradoxical narrative that governed discourse about black celebrities and, particularly, black athletes. Making use of archival research from the University of Oregon’s Special Collections Department, this study sheds light on the “Nike perspective” in furnishing an athletic meritocracy within a racially integrated community of consumers. Positioning this study within the field of African American cultural history, this thesis also interrogates representations

Sometimes they were very indirect placements, such as a character’s line indicating a preference for carpets because they absorb noise and reduce dust. A very innocent remark, on the face of things, if the studio Bavaria Film hadn’t been paid by a floor covering corporation to include it! German legislation is highly restrictive on the principle of placements. In hindsight, it was realized that such placements had been occurring for a long time in several other series such as Schimanski and Tatort. The ‘scandal’ reached such heights that the director of Bavaria Film, Thilo Kleine, and Frank Doehmann, former director of Colonia Media, were sacked.1 Although recent, this ‘affair’ seems to hark back to a distant, bygone age!

  • Getting Punchy Fist-Fighting, Wrestling and Fight-Books
    Getting Punchy Fist-Fighting, Wrestling and Fight-Books by Jeffrey Hull Often and somewhat understandably, one may find this kind of question at various forums for Medieval and Renaissance German Kunst des Fechtens (art of fighting / martial arts): Why are the knights in the fight-books never fist-fighting but instead wrestling? There are some unarmed strikes amid the wrestling and dueling of Kunst des Fechtens in the fechtbücher (fight- books / fencing manuals) of the 14th to 16th Century. Indeed, the single ubiquitous term for a variety of strikes was stöss. This was and is a highly dynamic, quite contextual and often-mistranslated word; which was used in both unarmoured & armoured, unarmed & armed combatives; and which could mean “punch, kick, pummel, strike” or alternately “push, shove” – thus any sort of violent “jolt” – and only rarely “thrust / stab [with blade-point]”. So we find in the fight-books a variety of weaponless strikes: jabs to body as per Codex Wallerstein (1380-90 & 1450s) and Hugues Wittenwiller (late 15th Century); kicks to groin, belly, knees & shins, as per Sigmund Ringeck (1438-40), Hans Talhoffer (1459 & 1467) Peter von Danzig (1452) and Paulus Kal (1460-70); head-butts as per Ringeck; punches to face as per Von Danzig; various “death-strikes” or “murder-jolts” (mort stöss) done to heart, groin, skull, throat/clavicles & belly of Ringeck; all congruous with the “forbidden wrestling” (vorboten ringen) of Döbringer & Von Danzig, the “murder-techniques” (mortstück) of Codex Wallerstein and “secret techniques” (verporgen stück) of Albrecht Dürer (1512), thus arm-breaks, leg-breaks, knee-kicks, bollix-kicks, finger-wrenches, eye-gouges, ear-grabs, nose-crunches, strangles and throat-presses; plus unterhalten (holding down / ground-work) as dealt with by Martein Hundtfeltz (1452), MS KK5013 (1425-30), Gladiatoria (1435-40), Ringeck, Von Danzig & Talhoffer; plus ubiquitous covers & blocks versus strikes.

  • The Belated Awakening of the Public Sphere to Racist Branding and Racist Stereotypes in Trademarks
    545 THE BELATED AWAKENING OF THE PUBLIC SPHERE TO RACIST BRANDING AND RACIST STEREOTYPES IN TRADEMARKS FADY. J.G. AOUN* *Readers are advised that this Article contains highly offensive, demeaning, and derogatory representations of Indigenous Australians, Native Americans, Black and ethnic minorities. While these may cause serious offense, they have been included here to provide a more accurate account of the racist trademarks and racist branding circulating in historical and contemporary liberal democratic societies.* ABSTRACT The transformative Black Lives Matter social justice movement has shone a harsh light on endemic structural racism in Western civil societies, especially as it relates to police brutality and hegemonic perceptions of oppressed minorities. A small, but important consequence of this powerful movement is the long overdue mobilization of the contemporary public sphere against longstanding racist branding and racist stereotypes in trademarks. This encouraging outcome — exemplified by the archetypal *Senior Lecturer, The University of Sydney Law School.

  • Final Dissertation EDITS Andrea 4-21-10
    © 2010 Catherine Adelaide Coleman DISEMPOWERING THROUGH DEFINITION: A DIALOGIC ETHICS FOR UNDERSTANDING CONSUMER VULNERABILITY THROUGH NIKE’S ‘MIKE AND SPIKE’ ADVERTISING AND AFRICAN AMERICAN CONSUMER HISTORY BY CATHERINE ADELAIDE COLEMAN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communications in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Jason Chambers, Chair Professor Clifford Christians Professor Linda Scott, Oxford University Associate Professor William Berry ii ABSTRACT Through socio-historical and market analysis and through the lens of ethical theory, this research argues that past thinking about vulnerable audiences is insufficiently grounded in evidence, unsubtle in its understanding of markets, and unselfconscious about its own paternalism. As a result, such thinking can actually disempower the very audiences it sets out to protect. This project is not simply a commentary on branding or on an historical incident; it is an important reflection of race relations in the United States and a theoretically important exploration of the power dynamics of defining vulnerability and of the roles and responsibilities of marketers, advertisers, endorsers, the media and consumers. This research proposes dialogic ethics as the framework through which to understand and define vulnerability in the consumer realm. Advertising frequently is criticized for creating and perpetuating negative stereotypes of vulnerable populations. Scholars have criticized the media and, in particular, advertising for reflecting and perpetuating racism in portrayals of minorities, with much popular and scholarly criticism of advertising and race into the 1980s based on the fact that there were few to no positive representations of African Americans in mainstream advertising.

  • Slavery and the Context of Ethnogenesis: Africans, Afro-Creoles, and the Realities of Bondage in the Kingdom of Quito, 1600-1800
    SLAVERY AND THE CONTEXT OF ETHNOGENESIS: AFRICANS, AFRO-CREOLES, AND THE REALITIES OF BONDAGE IN THE KINGDOM OF QUITO, 1600-1800 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sherwin Keith Bryant, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Professor Kenneth J. Andrien, Adviser Professor Stephanie J. Shaw ___________________________ Professor Stephanie Smith Adviser Department of History Graduate Program © Copyright by Sherwin K. Bryant 2004 ABSTRACT Exploring the emergence of African slavery in the Kingdom of Quito, this dissertation argues that Quito was not only typical of large Spanish American slave societies, was in many respects the quintessential Spanish American slave society. Similar to New Spain and Peru, in Quito, African slavery emerged first within the urban center of Quito, and extended almost immediately to the kingdom’s rural periphery. A region dominated by a strong indigenous presence, the areas of modern-day Ecuador and southern Colombia were thought, until now, not to possess significant numbers of African-descended slave laborers. Nevertheless, the region was marked by slavery and possessed three principal slaveholding regions—Popayán, the north-central highlands, and the district of Guayaquil. Similar to other Spanish American slave societies, throughout Quito, Afro-Creole slave laborers commingled always with diverse racial and ethnic pools of coerced laborers. Although African slavery represented only one of several ways Spaniards chose to divide labor in the kingdom, enslaved Africans and their Afro-Creole descendants formed the critical quadrant of Quito’s work sector.
