  • The Unladylike Ladies of Roller Derby?: How Spectators, Players and Derby Wives Do and Redo Gender and Heteronormativity in All-Female Roller Derby
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by White Rose E-theses Online The Unladylike Ladies of Roller Derby?: How Spectators, Players and Derby Wives Do and Redo Gender and Heteronormativity in All-Female Roller Derby Megan Geneva Murray PhD The University of York Women’s Studies January 2012 Abstract All-female roller derby is a rapidly growing full-contact sport played on quad roller skates, with a highly popularized punk, feminine, sexual and tough aesthetic. Utilising theories on the institution of heterosexuality, I conducted a qualitative study on all-female roller derby which evaluated the way in which derby aligns with or challenges heteronormativity. In order to approach this question, I analysed, firstly, thirty-eight interviews with spectators, and twelve with players about their interactions with spectators. Secondly, I interviewed twenty-six players about the phenomenon of “derby wives,” a term used to describe particular female friendships in roller derby. My findings relate the complex relationship between players and spectators by focusing on: (i) spectators’ interpretations of the dress, pseudonyms, and identities of players, as well as the ways in which they were actively involved in doing gender through their discussions of all-female, coed, and all-male roller derby; (ii) players’ descriptions of their interactions with spectators, family members, romantic partners, friends and strangers, regarding roller derby. Additionally, I address the reformulation of the role “wife” to meet the needs of female players within the community, and “derby wives” as an example of Adrienne Rich’s (1980) “lesbian continuum.” “Derby girls” are described as “super heroes” and “rock stars.” Their pseudonyms are believed to help them “transform” once they take to the track.

  • Upper Harbor Terminal
    APPENDIX A Upper Harbor Terminal ABOVE THE FALLS REGIONAL PARK MASTER PLAN PARK MASTER PLAN Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board PAGE A-1 PLANNING FRAMEWORK SEEKING A DEVELOPMENT PARTNER In 2013 MPRB concluded the majority of the ATF Regional Park planning process with a public presentation and opening of a 45-day comment period. At that time, the boundary for the regional park within the City owned Upper Harbor Terminal property was undetermined. In 2015, the Army Corps of Engineers closed the St. Anthony Falls lock and ended barge traffic to the upper river and redevelopment planning for the Upper Harbor Terminal entered a new phase. Because the City and MPRB would split the Upper Harbor Terminal between park and private development, it was critical to understand the nature of the private development. MPRB was seeking adequate width for shoreline restoration, circulation routes, and park features, while the City sought to retain adequate width to support a wide range of development options. With much of the site approximately 500’ wide, the land use and required width for development was a critical question for both agencies. After discussions with developers in 2014, there were many questions about the viability of private development, particularly housing and mixed use. In order to gain insight into the real estate and development market, the City and MPRB agreed to seek a master developer to join the planning process. The two agencies signed an agreement to issue a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and conduct a competitive process, informed by community engagement, to find a developer. In late 2015, staff initiated the upcoming planning process by raising awareness among community members and asking for input that would help inform the RFQ.

  • Carver Historic District
    Jonathan Carver 1710-1780 2014 UPDATE Highlights of Carver History • Ten thousand years ago glacial River Warren flowed through the Minnesota River Valley on which Carver is situated, carrying melt water away from retreating glaciers and leaving rich deposits of clay, sand, gravel, and fine silt soils, while cutting a deep and spectacular landscape. The River Warren was variously called the Riviere Pierre, the St. Peter River, Maddepaw, Menesotar, and finally the Minnesota River. Minnesota, a Dakota Indian name given to both the river and the state, means “sky tinted water”. • Carver and its surrounding Minnesota River Valley environs was occupied by Native Americans of the Woodland Culture from about 1200 B. C. to 1850 A. D. This occupation was often a seasonal hunting and gathering event, though in more recent times it was given over to summer planting and late season harvesting. The Minnesota River was long a Native American waterway for travel by dugout, canoe, and on ice during frozen periods. • Pierre-Charles Le Seuer is the first European known to have navigated the Minnesota River. In 1683 and 1700 he made exploration trips for King Louis XIV of France along the area that became Carver. • In 1766 Captain Jonathan Carver, working for the British, explored the Minnesota River area near present day Carver while making maps and searching for a western water route that flowed across North America to the Pacific Ocean. He named a small branch flowing into the Minnesota River “Carver’s River”, after himself, carving his name in a tree at its outlet. This is almost certainly the Carver Creek of today.

  • And USA Powerlifting Minnesota, Plaintiff Jaycee Cooper Through Her Attorneys, Jess Braverman and Christy L
    STATE OF MINNESOTA DISTRICT COURT COUNTY OF RAMSEY SECOND JUDICIAL DISTRICT Case Type: Discrimination JayCee Cooper, Court File No.: ___________________ Judge: ___________________ Plaintiff, vs. COMPLAINT AND DEMAND FOR JURY TRIAL USA Powerlifting; and USA Powerlifting Minnesota, Defendants. Plaintiff JayCee Cooper through her attorneys, Jess Braverman and Christy L. Hall, of Gender Justice, 200 University Ave West, Suite 200, St. Paul, Minnesota 55103, and David Schlesinger and Matthew A. Frank of Nichols Kaster, PLLP, 80 S 8th St. Suite 4700, Minneapolis, MN 55402, for her Complaint against Defendants USA Powerlifting (“USAPL”) and USA Powerlifting Minnesota (“USAPL MN”) states and alleges as follows: INTRODUCTION JayCee Cooper is a competitive women’s powerlifter who lives in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She began competing in powerlifting in 2018 and fell in love with the sport. Ms. Cooper sees powerlifting as a way to find strength within herself, and has found a home in the community of strong supportive women who come together around a shared love of sport. In 2018 Ms. Cooper trained to compete in the USAPL Minnesota State Bench Press Championship, which took place on January 19, 2019, and in the Minnesota Women’s State 1 Championship, which took place on February 16, 2019. On December 5, 2018, USAPL emailed Ms. Cooper, informing her that she could not compete because she is transgender. USAPL then revoked her competition card, which means that she was not eligible to compete in future USAPL events. USAPL MN then went on to hold both championship events, at which all transgender women athletes were prohibited from competing. At the time of its decision, USAPL had no express policy regarding participation in competition by transgender athletes.

  • Intellectual Property Norms Governing Roller Derby Pseudonyms
    Articles Talk Derby to Me: Intellectual Property Norms Governing Roller Derby Pseudonyms David Fagundes* Some groups use endemic social norms rather than formal law to regulate their intellectual property (IP). This qualitative empirical study extends and critiques existing work on this topic by examining how roller derby skaters guarantee exclusive use of the pseudonyms under which they compete. Roller derby names are a central part of this countercultural, all-girl sport, adding to its distinctive combination of punk and camp. Skaters have developed an elabo- rate rule structure, registration system, and governance regime to protect the uniqueness of their pseudonyms. The development of this extralegal governance scheme despite the ready availability of IP theories (e.g., trademark, right of publicity) to protect derby names shows that IP norms emerge independently of law’s substantive (un)availability, so long as the relevant group is close-knit and the norms are welfare enhancing. These groups are especially likely to craft formal regulation and registration schemes to buttress informal norms where the relevant community is identity constitutive and where the intangible goods arise from nonmarket production. This study also suggests another way of thinking about the problem of supplying property systems, casts (further) doubt on the coherence of the prevailing neoclassical economic assumptions underlying IP law, and reflects on what it means for rules to be law. * Associate Professor, Southwestern Law School.
