The Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol J. Adams
THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT A FEMINISTVEGETARIAN CRITICAL THEORY Praise for The Sexual Politics of Meat and Carol J. Adams “A clearheaded scholar joins the ideas of two movements—vegetari- anism and feminism—and turns them into a single coherent and moral theory. Her argument is rational and persuasive. New ground—whole acres of it—is broken by Adams.” —Colman McCarthy, Washington Post Book World “Th e Sexual Politics of Meat examines the historical, gender, race, and class implications of meat culture, and makes the links between the prac tice of butchering/eating animals and the maintenance of male domi nance. Read this powerful new book and you may well become a vegetarian.” —Ms. “Adams’s work will almost surely become a ‘bible’ for feminist and pro gressive animal rights activists. Depiction of animal exploita- tion as one manifestation of a brutal patriarchal culture has been explored in two [of her] books, Th e Sexual Politics of Meat and Neither Man nor Beast: Feminism and the Defense of Animals. Adams argues that factory farming is part of a whole culture of oppression and insti- tutionalized violence. Th e treatment of animals as objects is parallel to and associated with patriarchal society’s objectifi cation of women, blacks, and other minorities in order to routinely exploit them. Adams excels in constructing unexpected juxtapositions by using the language of one kind of relationship to illuminate another. Employing poetic rather than rhetorical techniques, Adams makes powerful connec- tions that encourage readers to draw their own conclusions.” —Choice “A dynamic contribution toward creating a feminist/animal rights theory.” —Animals’ Agenda “A cohesive, passionate case linking meat-eating to the oppression of animals and women . -

10. How Star Wars Became Museological
10. How Star Wars Became Museological Transmedia Storytelling in the Exhibition Space Beatriz Bartolomé Herrera and Philipp Dominik Keidl Star Wars’s production and reception histories—not to mention the millennia-long history of the storyworld itself—have been documented across books, television specials, DVD extras, interviews, articles, wikis, and fan-run websites. Another important site to encounter the franchise’s history is the museum. In fact, with the sale of Lucasfilm to Disney in 2012, George Lucas has turned his attention from filmmaking and producing to the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, which is set to open in Los Angeles and will house his collection of paintings, illustrations, comics, props, films, and digital art.1 This museum project is not the first time that Lucas has appeared in the role of art collector, philanthropist, and museologist. Since the early 1990s, Lucasfilm has licensed and co-curated several themed exhibitions for muse- ums, science centers, and other exposition venues, offering visitors detailed insights into the production process through the display of various objects from Lucas’s cinematic oeuvre. Star Wars-themed exhibitions have been the most popular of Lucasfilm’s exhibitions by far, bringing large numbers of visitors into many different institutions. For instance, throughout its fifteen-month run from October 1997 to January 1999, The Magic of Myth drew more than 900,000 visitors to the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum (NASM), becoming one of the most popular shows in the institution’s history.2 However, despite the franchise’s growing museum presence, the study of exhibitions has only played a minor role in Star Wars scholarship. -

While ARVAs and ARVAism are the focus of this inquiry, the approaches, concepts and theories used are broadly applicable and therefore this investigation is potentially useful for any activist or group of activists wishing to interrogate and improve their persuasive practices.

Paul Allen's EMP Museum Changes Name to Museum of Pop Culture
Online Articles Meet MoPOP: Paul Allen’s EMP Museum changes name to Museum of Pop Culture The Museum of Pop Culture, formerly EMP Museum, near Seattle’s Space Needle. (Kurt Schlosser / GeekWire) Update: The museum shared a news release about the name change late Tuesday. This story has been updated to reflect additional information. Department of Information Resources Promotion http://arit.npru.ac.th/ Page 1 The branding department responsible for putting the name of Seattle’s EMP Museum onto merchandise should just take a deep breath. They’re probably just as confused as the rest us who are tasked with remembering what to call the colorful blob at the base of the Space Needle. For the fifth time in its 16-year history, the museum founded by Microsoft billionaire Paul Allen has undergone a name change and will now be called the Museum of Pop Culture, or MoPOP. The change isn’t yet reflected in the website URL for the museum, but banners at the top of the site announce the change. And over on Twitter, @EMPMuseum has given way to @MoPOPSeattle. The museum was designed to incorporate Seattle’s monorail. (Kurt Schlosser / GeekWire) Department of Information Resources Promotion http://arit.npru.ac.th/ Page 2 “MoPOP reflects who we are today and the future of the museum,” Patty Isacson Sabee, CEO and director of MoPOP, said in a news release. “Pop culture is a platform that resonates with audiences in a powerful way. And at MoPOP we provide avenues through our exhibits and programs for people to explore, learn, create, and celebrate pop culture in all of its diversity.” Founded in 2000 as the Experience Music Project, the museum was originally christened as a home to celebrate rock ‘n’ roll. -

Oregon Historical Quarterly | Winter 2019 "White Supremacy
Oregon Historical Quarterly Winter 2019 SPECIAL ISSUE White Supremacy & Resistance in this issue Violence on Tribal Peoples of the Oregon Coast; Settler Sovereignty Formation in Oregon; White Egalitarianism and the Oregon Donation Land Claim Act; George Williams’s Anti-Slavery Letter; Abolitionists in Oregon; Labor and White Right; Liberty Ships and Jim Crow Shipyards; Struggle to Admit African Americans into ILWU, Local 8; Nativism to White Power; The Murder of Mulugeta Seraw THIS PROGRAM, from the St. Rose Church Men’s Club’s ninth annual minstrel show, is an example of how OHS Research Library, Coll. 835 Library, OHS Research racism and White supremacy can take many forms that are accepted in mainstream society. As detailed in the program, participants dressed in blackface and performed skits for audiences in Portland, Oregon. Programs in the OHS Research Library collection indicate the church performed minstrel shows from the 1940s until at least 1950. During that time, the church moved the show from a single performance at Grant High School to two performances at Civic Auditorium. ON THE COVER: On May 26, 2017, White supremacist Jeremy Christian verbally attacked two young women, one wearing a hijab, on a light-rail train in Portland, Oregon. Three men intervened, and Christian killed Ricky Best and Taliesin Namkai-Meche, while severely injuring Micah Fletcher. In the days following the attack, a powerful, tangible response from the community developed at the Hollywood MAX station — a memorial to the victims that included chalk messages, photographs, candles, and flowers. Jackie Labrecque, then a reporter for KATU News, took this photograph at dawn after someone wrote, in pink chalk, Taliesin Namkai-Meche’s final words: “Please tell everyone on this train I love them.” The memorial, a response to tragedy, also provided hope through a resounding denouncement of hate.
