  • Hood Politics”: Racial Transformation in Hip-Hop Richard Spradlin
    41 “Hood Politics”: Racial Transformation in Hip-Hop Richard Spradlin Abstract: This paper explores the possibility of music to transform the way we understand each other. In particular, it looks at the genre of hip-hop and the ways in which it can serve as a vehicle for understanding black experience. I argue that hip-hop’s structural elements allow artists to convey their living narrative in a way that recognizes, challenges, and changes our conceptual understanding of the black body. Using the works of Darby English and Harry Nethery, I examine hip-hop and apply their arguments to two specific rappers in order to illustrate my argument. Introduction Although music has been a relevant topic of philosophical conversation for centuries, rarely afforded this same privilege is the genre of hip-hop. The rough, aggressive sounds and lyrical content can turn many would-be listeners away. It is often critiqued for its sexism, misogyny, violence, and generally hedonist attitudes. It is fundamentally “different.” I’m interested in the location and identification of difference, as I believe hip-hop can reveal a larger cultural and social compartmentalization and confinement of the differently identified. These larger systems can shape our experience and influence our understandings of others-particularly black bodies.1 I argue that hip-hop has the ability to inspire a reconstruction of the narrative of self. It challenges how we understand the capturing and appropriation of black experience through the musical articulation of that experience. Using the language of conceptual terrain, inherited from Darby English, I argue that hip-hop can deconstruct and rebuild our larger schematic relationships with black art, and thereby our relationship with black bodies.

  • 36Th Annual Bull Sale
    36th Annual Bull Sale FEBRUARY 27, 2021 - SPRUCE GROVE - 1:00PM to our 36th annual sale. In these trying times we can’t help but feel fortunate to be a part of an Welcomeindustry that is actually essential. An industry that supports itself internally no matter the obstacle. With very few things going on in the world that make sense, we feel that people involved in AG make sense and matter more than ever. Agriculture is maybe, finally getting half the recognition it deserves. Our beef markets have bounced around in the last 12 months. However, this fall we saw a surge in high calf prices and tremendous bred heifer prices if the quality was present. The fat market and cull trade has been painful, but things are slowly climbing this mid-winter. Times are on the rise. We lost an important member of our family and farm this past May. The man who steered the ship for many decades. Jack Lewis passed away on May 16th at the age of 88. He is missed every day and we are reminded of him in everything we do. With that being said Tyler and Brianna had a baby boy named Jack in September. Kyle and Alexis had another boy, Kolter John in May. The future here is exciting and we wouldn’t want to be doing anything else. We would like to thank Leonard and Rhonda Mark and their family for their continued partnership in this event. Leonard’s set of bulls continue to raise the bar. The consistency and attention to detail he has in the sector is unmatched.

  • A Case Study: the Issues High School Principals Encounter With
    A CASE STUDY: THE ISSUES HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPALS ENCOUNTER WITH INSTRUCTIONAL SUPERVISION By GREGORY CURTIS GENTRY, SR. (Under the direction of DR. SALLY J. ZEPEDA) ABSTRACT This case study explored the perspectives of four high school principals regarding the definition of instructional supervision, the process of instructional supervision, the climate that enhances instructional supervision, what gets in the way of principals supervising teachers, and the structure of the high school. The constant comparative method of data analysis was used in this qualitative study. Drawing from the literature in the areas of the purposes and intents of instructional supervision and the history of the principal as instructional leader, the researcher examined the construct of instructional supervision within the high school setting. Results indicated that principals could not clearly articulate a definition of supervision, but rather, they defined supervision as evaluation. The factors that enhanced supervision included trust and management style. Findings indicate that due to the compartmentalized nature of the high school that the principals in this study were stymied by their inability to set priorities based on work demands and lack of expertise across specialized content areas. Other constraints included role entanglements between assistant principals, department chairs, and instructional coordinators that prevented the principals from emerging as informed instructional supervisors in their buildings. Discussion and implications are presented for
