  • Song & Music in the Movement
    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

Four of the interviewees worked as uranium miners or prospectors, one was the wife of a miner, and another was a retired compliance officer for the Bureau of Land Management who was familiar with the area and with the history of Copper Globe mine, in particular. The goal was to record personal accounts and general histories related to five abandoned mine sites on the San Rafael Swell that are considered Areas of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC): Copper Globe, Lucky Strike, Tomsich Butte, Hidden Splendor, and Little Susan.

Well, here it is, December 30 and we're already rained out for March 31st. Bummer! The good news is that it gives you seven more days to get your rig ready for the big show. We have more surprises in store for you this year. Yes, we're busy working. E@RTC never ever sleeps, not even with one eye closed. It's the end of the year, time to put 2017 in the history books. I hope it was a good year for everyone. We all hope that 2018 is even better for all of us. You may even get that felony to drop off your record! I can't say I know how that stuff works, but at some point, they've got to take that "blowing up the outhouse" incident off your record. How were you to know Gram-Gram was using it. Petition the governor! He will sign it if he can stop laughing. For many who show up at our season opener, it will be new cars, others will now be classics, same with your significant other by the way, but I digress. The point is, that with every new year, we see changes and it's nice to see the show continue to evolve into something even more special than the year before. So, we wish you all a Happy New Year! ______________________________________________________________________________ December 18, 2017 The Calendar Is Starting to Go Up We've started to put a few dates on the calendar and the one that's still missing is Classics and Muscle Cars.

  • Grooming Men: Consumer Culture and the Constitution of Masculine Identities
    Grooming Men: Consumer Culture and the Constitution of Masculine Identities Mary Watkins PhD Thesis May 2017 The thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Portsmouth. Declaration Whilst registered as a candidate for the above degree, I have not been registered for any other research award. The results and conclusions embodied in this thesis are the work of the named candidate and have not been submitted for any other academic award. Word count: 75,511 Abstract Consumer culture expanded considerably throughout the twentieth-century. Consumer commodities, goods and services became ever more significant in the everyday lives of those living in the Western world. Consumer and marketing industries have invested considerable resources into sites of information that have cultivated a relationship between consumer commodities and identity with consumer brands and products positioned as signifiers of owners’ identities, used to reflect individuals’ tastes, preferences, sexual orientation, class, income, ethnicity and gender. Drawing on Zygmunt Bauman’s extensive body of work as a framework for analysis this thesis examines how a shift from a production- led to a consumer-driven culture has impacted on the identity of modern men, an identity that was until the late twentieth-century more closely associated with employment and production than consumption. By focusing on men’s relationship with and involvement in consumer markets, particularly the male grooming product market, this thesis makes an empirical contribution to the men and masculinity academic field, examining new ways of understanding male identity, masculinity and the male gender role.

  • The Burgeoning Usage of Neologisms in Contemporary English
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 18, Issue 3 (Nov. - Dec. 2013), PP 25-35 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org The Burgeoning Usage of Neologisms in Contemporary English Bhagavan Behera1, Priyadarshani Mishra2 1Department of Business Studies, Konark Institute of Science and Technology, Bhubaneswar, Odisha (India) 2Department of English, Konark Institute of Science and Technology, Bhubaneswar, Odisha (India) Abstract: Change is the law of the nature. Nothing changes like change and today’s trendy English language is also predisposed to the same. Every Language is a vivacious observable fact. Even though English has a critical nucleus of words which are elementary to sentence formation and have remained unswerving over centuries, there are also a good number of words which both penetrate and relinquish the language with the efflux of time, a straight mirror image of the obsession of society in any particular epoch. Some new words are momentary, coupled with educational or scientific concepts which become paler in implication and the rest hang about the itinerary, more often than not for the reason that they symbolize concepts which have developed into enduring attributes of civilization. Therefore the drive for novelty should not be undermined. A large amount of new words do not fit to the proper language but to the colloquial one, these neologisms are not chronicled in dictionaries and they may immediately be done away with when new ones emerge. Nevertheless where do all these innovative words that navigate or permeate into the English language. In this paper I endeavored to seize a closer gaze at the modus operandi by which new words are coined, demonstrating that new words and phrases are far more about redesigning than actual configuration.
