  • Most Censored Stories of 2006–07
    ISSN 0028-9485 January 2008 Vol. LVII No. 1 www.ala.org/nif Project Censored, a media research group at Sonoma State University that tracks news published in independent journals and newsletters, has published its annual listing of “most censored” stories. Project Censored compiles an annual list of 25 news stories of social significance that have been overlooked, under‑reported or self‑censored by the country’s major national news media. Between 700 and 1000 stories are submitted to Project Censored each year from journalists, scholars, librarians, and concerned citizens around the world. With the help of more than 200 Sonoma State University faculty, students, and community members, Project Censored reviews the story submissions for coverage, content, reliability of sources and national significance. The university community selects 25 stories to submit to the Project Censored panel of judges who then rank them in order of importance. Current or most previous national judges include: Noam Chomsky, Susan Faludi, George Gerbner, Sut Jhally, Judith F. Krug, Frances Moore Lappe, Norman Solomon, Michael Parenti, Herbert I. Schiller, Barbara Seaman, Erna Smith, Mike Wallace and Howard Zinn. All 25 stories censored are featured in the yearbook, Censored: The News That Didn’t Make the News. The following are the ten “most censored” stories for 2006–07 as reported in Censored stories 2008, published last Fall by Project Censored: of 2006–07 1.

  • Building a More Inclusive Women's Health Movement: Byllye Avery and the Development of the National Black Women's Health Project, 1981-1990
    Building a More Inclusive Women's Health Movement: Byllye Avery and the Development of the National Black Women's Health Project, 1981-1990 A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences 2012 By Evan Hart M.A., University of Cincinnati, 2007 B.A., University of Southern Indiana, 2005 Committee Chair: Wendy Kline, Ph.D. Abstract This dissertation examines the National Black Women's Health Project (NBWHP), the first organization devoted solely to the health of black women. The Project was a unique organization because it was one of the first which argued black women, because of the multiple jeopardies of racism, classism, and sexism, must fight the forces negatively impacting their emotional, physical, and spiritual health. These forces, Project members argued, included their white counterparts in groups such as the National Women's Health Network, the Project's mother organization. Troubled by the lack of information on black women's health issues, NBWHP founder Byllye Avery sought to remedy the situation by hosting a national conference on black women’s health issues at Spelman College in 1983. It was at this conference that black women demanded the formation of an independent health organization, not just a program of a predominantly white health group, a group which too often glossed over the health concerns of women of color. NBWHP leaders insisted they needed their own organization which addressed their health issues. Many of the founders had been involved on some level with white women's health organizations, and most continued to have friendly relationships with white activists.

Global Feminisms, Transnational Political Economies, Third World Cultural Production By Winnie Woodhulli Abstract Third wave feminism is located historically in relation to de-industrialization in the 1980s and the 1990s’ boom in information technologies and transnational finance, which exponentially increased disparities of wealth and power worldwide. Given the global context of third wave feminism’s emergence, this article argues for a consideration of the many forms and expression of feminism the world over, and of the ways they converge with and diverge from western feminisms, both politically and culturally. After briefly discussing the economically oppressive and culturally homogenizing tendencies of globalization, the article looks at the democratizing potential of today’s global media networks.

  • Marilyn Webb's Biography 2021
    1 Marilyn Linda Salzman Webb Veteran Feminists of America Pioneer Histories Project Documenting the Second Wave Women’s Movement Biographical Information Activism: How did you first become involved in the women’s movement? I was an activist before there was a women’s movement, but I didn’t label it as such. At age nine I protested loudly when I went to try out for Little League and was told girls were not allowed. No one listened then, but when I was in college I celebrated when one New Jersey 12-year-old’s parents sued Little League and won. Girls sports forever changed. I was unknown but felt avenged. When I was twelve, I was thrown out of summer camp for another gender protest. This time I had been grounded for being caught kissing a boy. Nothing happened to him, but I made such a scene that my parents were asked to take me home because of it. I never forgot how unfair that was. My official movement involvement began in December of 1965, at an SDS national meeting at the University of Illinois campus at Champaign-Urbana. While the SDS meeting was going on upstairs in the student union, women drifted down to a big booth/alcove in the cafeteria. Someone, maybe Heather Booth, had received a letter from women in SNCC—Casey Hayden, Mary Varella and someone else, I believe--about issues women had in that organization and they asked us to look at similar issues in our organization. Basically, it said women do the shit work and men get the credit.

  • Marillion.Com " Non Lascia Il Segno
    Marillion Scritto da Montag Domenica 01 Novembre 2009 15:18 - Il primo 'nucleo' dei Marillion nasce nel '78 da un'idea del batterista Mick Pointer. Il nome del gruppo è Silm arillion , nome tratto da un libro pubblicato postumo di J.R.R. Tolkien, autore e ispiratore (involontario) di un genere letterario che è il Fantasy . All'inizio i Silmarillion sono una band strumentale, con influenze non definite ma con una propensione ad una musica piuttosto complessa. Ma il gruppo è giovane e, dopo i primi 'disastri' live, chitarrista e tastierista se ne vanno. L'anno successivo, grazie ai soliti e mitici annunci sulle riviste di settore, si unisce al gruppo Ste ve Rothery , un chitarrista affascinato da artisti quali Gilmour, Hackett e Latimer. La sintonia con il resto del gruppo, in special modo con Mick, è totale. Si riesce a trovare un tastierista, Brian Jelliman, e il nome del gruppo viene 'accorciato' a Marillion. Si cominciano a produrre i primi demo di carattere estremamente differente dai Marillion che conosciamo: musica barocca con tinte neoclassiche, inserti di flauto e un'aria bucolica pervade la loro proposta musicale. Si cercano ingaggi per concerti, e dopo vari fiaschi si arriva a suonare persino in una clinica psichiatrica (almeno così narra la leggenda...). Sul finire del '79 una piccola svolta: Doug Irvine (bassista) si cura delle parti cantate! Questa scelta (del canto, cioè) 'sconvolge' la musica dei Marillion. Da brani precedenti, come una fenice, sorge la prima 'canzone' della band, Close (che con Fish diverrà The Web ). Purtroppo, Doug lascia la band e i reduci sono costretti a cercare bassista e cantante.

Review of A Politically Incorrect Feminist by Phyllis Chesler Abstract Phyllis Chesler’s new memoir, A Politically Incorrect Feminist (St. Martin's Press, 2018), spans almost fifty years of second-wave feminism. She names 100s of women, both famous and virtually unknown today who took part in the awakening and growing women’s movement, marching, sitting-in, writing and organizing since the 1960’s. It is the personal life story of one of the earliest feminist authors and political activists of the second- wave, the author of Women and Madness and 17 other books. Chelser discusses major issues of the time and provides an insider’s view of many of the feminism’s most significant public events.
