FARM AID: A CASE STUDY OF A CHARITY ROCK ORGANIZATION by Andrew M. Palen A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Media Studies at The University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee December 2016 ABSTRACT FARM AID: A CASE STUDY ON THE IMPACT OF A CHARITY ROCK ORGANIZATION by Andrew M. Palen The University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, 2016 Under the Supervision of Professor David Pritchard This study examines the impact that the non-profit organization Farm Aid has had on the farming industry, policy, and the concert realm known as charity rock. This study also examines how the organization has maintained its longevity. By conducting an evaluation on Farm Aid and its history, the organization’s messaging and means to communicate, a detailed analysis of the past media coverage on Farm Aid from 1985-2010, and a phone interview with Executive Director Carolyn Mugar, I have determined that Farm Aid’s impact is complex and not clear.

  • Willie Nelson and the Mom and Pop Grocery Aid Concert
    Willie Nelson and the Mom and Pop Grocery Aid Concert I’m sure you’ve seen or heard of special events to aid suffering farmers. Willie Nelson’s Farm Aid concerts are my favorites. A few choruses of “It’s a Bloody Mary Morning” sung in a Midwest football stadium and millions of dollars go to help farmers. I always wait for Willie to say that all we need to do is legalize marijuana and solve the farm problem, but Willie understands enough economics to know that wouldn’t work either. The increase in supply would drive prices down to near zero. This is the problem in U.S. agriculture. We’re too good at it. As supplies increase, prices fall, and with inelastic demand lower prices lead to lower revenue. In order to stay in business, you have to cut cost, and in agriculture that usually means getting bigger. Say goodbye to the small family farm. Unlike normal people, economists don’t see a problem in agriculture. That’s because economic losses in a market economy serve the same purpose as profits. A loss acts as a signal that you need to find another line of work. Even normal people recognize this in other industries. We don’t have celebrities coming to the aid of mom and pop grocery stores driven out of business by the new supermarket. I’ve never heard of a single Grocery Store Aid concert, or Barber Aid, or Dry Cleaner Aid, or Restaurant Aid. We don’t mourn the replacement of full service auto mechanics by Jiffy Lube and other specialty chains.

  • THE NEW DEAL, RURAL POVERTY, and the SOUTH by CHARLES
    THE NEW DEAL, RURAL POVERTY, AND THE SOUTH by CHARLES KENNETH ROBERTS KARI FREDERICKSON, COMMITTEE CHAIR GEORGE C. RABLE LISA LINDQUIST DORR ANDREW J. HUEBNER PETE DANIEL A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2012 Copyright Charles Kenneth Roberts 2012 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the political and administrative history of the Farm Security Administration (FSA) and its predecessors, the New Deal agency most directly associated with eliminating rural poverty. In addition, it studies and describes the efforts to remedy rural poverty, with an emphasis on farm security efforts (particularly rural rehabilitation) in the South, by looking at how the FSA’s actual operating programs (rural rehabilitation, tenant-purchase, and resettlement) functioned. This dissertation demonstrates that it is impossible to understand either element of the FSA’s history – its political and administrative history or the successes and failures of its operating programs – without understanding the other. The important sources include archival collections, congressional records, newspapers, and published reports. This dissertation demonstrates that New Deal liberal thought (and action) about how to best address rural poverty evolved considerably throughout the 1930s. Starting with a wide variety of tactics (including resettlement, community creation, land use reform, and more), by 1937, the New Deal’s approach to rural poverty had settled on the idea of rural rehabilitation, a system of supervised credit and associated ideas that came to profoundly influence the entire FSA program. This proved to be the only significant effort in the New Deal to solve the problems of rural poverty.

  • Willie Hugh Nelson Est Né Le 29 Avril 1933 À Abbott, Périphérie De Fort Worth (Texas), Pendant La Grande Dépression
    Willie Hugh Nelson est né le 29 avril 1933 à Abbott, périphérie de Fort Worth (Texas), pendant la Grande Dépression. Il sera élevé par ses Grands Parents (ses parents, sa mère Myrle Marie (née Greenhaw et son père Ira Doyle Nelson divorcent alors que Willie n’a que 6 mois). Son grand-père forgeron décèdera lorsque Willie à 6 ans. En dehors de l’école il va travailler dans les champs de coton ou de maïs pour s’acheter des fournitures scolaires. Sa Grand-mère, cantinière, gagne 18 $ par jour et s’occupe de sa famille. Autour de sa 5ème année Willie apprend la musique sur une guitare ’’ Harmony ‘’ que lui achète son grand père, à partir d’un catalogue de vente par correspondance ‘’ Sears and Roebuck ‘’. Sa grand-mère commence à lui montrer quelques accords ; sa sœur Bobbie, aînée de 2 ans, joue du piano. A 7 ans Willie écrit sa première chanson et à 9 ans il chante dans un groupe local, les ‘’Bohemian Polka’’. Après ses études secondaires Willie occupe plusieurs emplois : vendeur d’encyclopédies en faisant du porte-à-porte, puis représentant de machines à coudre Singer. Willie commence à jouer dans des orchestres puis intègre l'US Air Force en 1950. En 1956 Il reprend quelques études à l'université Baylor de Waco, mais abandonne rapidement celles-ci et une future carrière d’agriculteur pour devenir musicien et disc jockey et se destiner à la Country Music. S'installant à Vancouver, dans l'état de Washington, le jeune homme débute dans les clubs, tentant d'imposer son style folk sudiste traditionnel face à un public globalement indifférent à ce genre.

    Escaping 1980 Episode 4 – Bottoming Out David Widmar: We saw in 1972, they bought as much as they could as quickly as possible so that way no one knew how bad the situation was. Brent Gloy: This changed the tone from the “sky is the limit” to the “sky is falling overnight.” We had people walking into banks and shooting loan officers and bank presidents, because they'd lost their family. David Widmar: Every farm boom ends. It's how it ends that's the difficult part. Sarah Mock: Where the 1970s might've been a little before Brent's time. The 1980s were not. Brent Gloy: I grew up on the farm and, you know, Husker football is a big thing, of course, in Nebraska. So, in 1983, we should have won the national championship that was devastating. I always think of Journey and Van Halen, and that was kind of my era - Guns and Roses toward the end of the 80s. Wall Street – “Greed is good.” I don't remember when that movie came out [in 1987]. The original with Charlie Sheen and Gordon Gekko, “Greed is good.” Sarah Mock: Brent, as is clearly evidenced by the story, has been a documented econ and finance nerd since at least 1987. For the rest of his generation these years were about Ferris Bueller's Day Off and the Breakfast Club, Michael Jackson's We Are the World broadcast at Live Aid, and a lot of spandex, Doc Martins, and heavy metal. Even beyond the cultural milieu, Brent and David also have particular memories from the fallout of the Chernobyl disaster to the ongoing Cold War.
