  • The Cross-Country/Cross-Class Drives of Don Draper/Dick Whitman: Examining Mad Men’S Hobo Narrative
    Journal of Working-Class Studies Volume 2 Issue 1, 2017 Forsberg The Cross-Country/Cross-Class Drives of Don Draper/Dick Whitman: Examining Mad Men’s Hobo Narrative Jennifer Hagen Forsberg, Clemson University Abstract This article examines how the critically acclaimed television show Mad Men (2007- 2015) sells romanticized working-class representations to middle-class audiences, including contemporary cable subscribers. The television drama’s lead protagonist, Don Draper, exhibits class performatively in his assumed identity as a Madison Avenue ad executive, which is in constant conflict with his hobo-driven born identity of Dick Whitman. To fully examine Draper/Whitman’s cross-class tensions, I draw on the American literary form of the hobo narrative, which issues agency to the hobo figure but overlooks the material conditions of homelessness. I argue that the hobo narrative becomes a predominant but overlooked aspect of Mad Men’s period presentation, specifically one that is used as a technique for self-making and self- marketing white masculinity in twenty-first century U.S. cultural productions. Keywords Cross-class tensions; television; working-class representations The critically acclaimed television drama Mad Men (2007-2015) ended its seventh and final season in May 2015. The series covered the cultural and historical period of March 1960 to November 1970, and followed advertising executive Don Draper and his colleagues on Madison Avenue in New York City. As a text that shows the political dynamism of the mid-century to a twenty-first century audience, Mad Men has wide-ranging interpretations across critical camps. For example, in ‘Selling Nostalgia: Mad Men, Postmodernism and Neoliberalism,’ Deborah Tudor suggests that the show offers commitments to individualism through a ‘neoliberal discourse of style’ which stages provocative constructions of reality (2012, p.

Race, Religion, and Rights: Otherness Gone Mad Abstract Inevitable yet often unnamed, the looming political radicalism of the late 1960s acts as something like a silent partner in the Mad Men narrative, relying on viewers' historical knowledge of the social tension outside Sterling Cooper to underscore the contrived nature of the world within it. Just as the series spans the period between the emergence of liberal and radical white feminist discourses, it also bridges key moments in the civil rights movement, from the boycotts, otv er registration drives, and sweeping oratory of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., to the assassinations of civil rights leaders and activists; rioting in Watts nda other cities; and the emergence of a black power movement.

  • St. Mark's, Capitol Hill History and Description of Its
    ST. MARK'S, CAPITOL HILL HISTORY AND DESCRIPTION OF ITS FABRIC, STAINED GLASS, AND OTHER NOTABLE FEATURES [Book update 2010 on-line text] [Winged Lion emblem] The Winged Lion of St. Mark on the title page was created in 1992 by John Lineberger, parishioner and graphic arts designer, who produced it as a new cover design for The Gospel According to St. Mark's, the parish newsletter since the 1960s. by Bert & Mary Cooper, Parish Historians 1 INTRODUCTION St. Mark's Episcopal Church on Capitol Hill is many things to its members and friends -- an urban parish attempting to stay in touch with its community and the times, a congregation of people seeking to make sense of their lives within a religious context, and a building that for many years has been a landmark in its neighborhood. In a time of rapid change and destruction of many of the physical features of the urban landscape, the mere survival of this late 19th century structure and its many beautiful artifacts is remarkable. But St. Mark's has been committed to more than just surviving in the physical sense. The congregation has insisted on making St. Mark's an institution that reflects the richness and diversity of life on Capitol Hill. This online text describes aspects of our architectural and artistic heritage that may be of interest to those who worship here as well as those who come to the church for other reasons. Many of the questions people have asked about the building, the windows, and other features of the church are answered in these pages.

  • Boxing Isn't Like Other Sports. When Aging Players in Other Profes
    As 2007 began, the ice that Evander Holyfield was skating on seemed dangerously close to cracking. Evander Holyfield and the Impossible Dream oxing isn’t like other sports. When aging players in other profes- sional athletic endeavors can’t perform anymore, the system forces Bthem out. In boxing, there’s always money to be made off an aging fighter; either as an opponent to pad a young prospect’s record or as a “name” that sells tickets and engenders pay-per-view buys. Evander Holyfield is an aging fighter. He’s forty-four years old and has amassed a professional record of forty wins against eight losses and two draws over twenty-two years. “I’ve had a lot of good things happen to me in my career,” he says. “Making the United States Olympic team [in 1984] was my greatest moment. Beating Buster Douglas [in 1990] to become undisputed heavyweight champion of the world for the first time was a high point. And knocking out Mike Tyson [in 1996] is up there with those two.” Then Holyfield utters the words that have become the mantra of his fistic faith: “But the best is yet to come. I’m not going to retire until I’m the undisputed heavyweight champion of the world again.” Reality would seem to dictate otherwise. In the past six years, Holy- field has won just three fights. In 2004, he fought a journeyman boxer named Larry Donald at Madison Square Garden and lost eleven of twelve rounds. He was so outclassed that the New York State Athletic Commission put him on indefinite medical suspension for what it called “poor performance” and “diminished skills.” Evander subsequently passed a series of medical tests, at which point the commission removed him from its medical suspension list and placed him on administrative suspension.
