Seiler calls “contemporary conscious popular music”, which includes “music of any genre that focuses on social issues and perceived problems in society and may or may not include music that carries an overtly political message”. Consequently, much of the analysis of their songs claim that these are only a mere description of the terrible situation countries such as Ireland and the US were facing at that time. In this paper, however, I will examine the sociopolitical significance of U2’s songs as an appreciator of their cultural contribution and show that the events which formed the backdrop to some of U2’s most explicitly political songs in the 1980s – especially those included in War and The Joshua Tree – are etched indelibly into the text of both Ireland’s and America’s troubled colonial and political history.

  • Petition to List the Western Joshua Tree Under the California Endangered Species
    BEFORE THE CALIFORNIA FISH AND GAME COMMISSION A Petition to List the Western Joshua Tree (Yucca brevifolia) as Threatened under the California Endangered Species Act (CESA) Center for Biological Diversity October 15, 2019 i Notice of Petition For action pursuant to Section 670.1, Title 14, California Code of Regulations (CCR) and Division 3, Chapter 1.5, Article 2 of the California Fish and Game Code (Sections 2070 et seq.) relating to listing and delisting endangered and threatened species of plants and animals. I. SPECIES BEING PETITIONED: Species Name: Western Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia) as either a full species, or as the subspecies Yucca brevifolia brevifolia. II. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Listing as Threatened The Center for Biological Diversity submits this petition to list the western Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia) as Threatened pursuant to the California Endangered Species Act (California Fish and Game Code §§ 2050 et seq., “CESA”). The western Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia), long recognized as a subspecies or variety (Yucca brevifolia brevifolia), has recently been recognized as a full species distinct from its close relative, the eastern Joshua tree (Yucca jaegeriana). This petition demonstrates that the western Joshua tree is eligible for and warrants listing under CESA based on the factors specified in the statute and implementing regulations. Specifically, the western Joshua tree meets the definition of a “threatened species” since it is “a native species or subspecies of a … plant that, although not presently threatened with extinction, is likely to become an endangered species in the foreseeable future in the absence of the special protection and management efforts . .” Cal.

    PSCI 11 The Gospel According to U2 Winter Study 2008 Professor Darel E. Paul PSCI 11 Stetson g19 Griffin 6 597-2327 TWR 10am-noon [email protected] Office Hrs.: Mondays 2:00pm - 4:00pm and by appointment Course Description It has been said that U2 is the "world's greatest rock band" – but is it also (unknown to most) the world's greatest – and most unusual – Christian rock band? This course explores the theology, spirituality and politics of U2 expressed through the group's songs, stage performances and human right campaigns. We will travel from the band's origins in the Shalom Christian Fellowship in Dublin to their overtly Christian second album October (1981); the culmination of their superstardom in Joshua Tree (1987); through their techno and ultra-ironic 1990s marked by Zoo-TV, PopMart and Bono's "mock the devil" phase as Mr. MacPhisto; and a return to their roots in All That You Can't Leave Behind (2000) and How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb (2004). Along the way, we will listen to a lot of U2, watch some videos and tour footage – but it's not all fun and games. We will also read serious theological and philosophical tracts on U2 lyrics and explore the band's complicated interweaving of faith, sexuality, grace, fame, doubt, justice, and the meaning of America in a way which makes them a surprisingly popular and poignant spiritual voice in our superficial and materialistic age. We will also delve into the group's human rights and social justice work, from Band Aid in the ‘80s to (Product)RED today, and in particular explore Bono's Christian social justice moorings.

    B.B. King: “I’m Just A Blues Singer” …and so much more! Come take a virtual trip through the life and times of this world-class bluesman. B.B. King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center Education Curriculum 1 A Lifetime Collector The contents of this presentation, drawn from multiple sources, simulate a visit to the B.B. King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center, which opened in 2008 in B.B. King’s “hometown” of Indianola, Mississippi. Almost all of the items exhibited in the museum were shipped to Indianola from B. B. King’s Las Vegas home. By sharing these artifacts with museum visitors, he has given us a glimpse of himself and what it’s like to be the King of the Blues. 2 Tennessee Birthplace Arkansas Riley B. King was born on Wednesday, September 16, 1925, Mississippi in a cabin on the bank of Bear Creek in the tiny town of Berclair, Mississippi. This map shows other places he lived during his childhood and into his Louisiana teens: Kilmichael, Lexington, Indianola, and Memphis. 3 Sharecropper’s Home Riley’s parents, Albert and Nora Ella King, were sharecroppers who lived in a simple home southeast of Berclaire along Bear Creek. After his parents separated when he was four, King lived in Kilmichael and Lexington before moving as a teen to Indianola, which he refers to as his hometown. 4 Sharecropper’s Life Growing cotton began by breaking up the ground with hand tools like this hoe. Workers stooped over the cotton plants to fill their bags, which they dragged along behind them.
