    Journal of Ethnic and Cultural Studies Copyright 2020 2020, Vol. 7, No. 3, 142-162 ISSN: 2149-1291 http://dx.doi.org/10.29333/ejecs/392 Racism’s Back Door: A Mixed-Methods Content Analysis of Transformative Sketch Comedy in the US from 1960-2000 Jennifer Kim1 Independent Scholar, USA Abstract: Comedy that challenges race ideology is transformative, widely available, and has the potential to affect processes of identity formation and weaken hegemonic continuity and dominance. Outside of the rules and constraints of serious discourse and cultural production, these comedic corrections thrive on discursive and semiotic ambiguity and temporality. Comedic corrections offer alternate interpretations overlooked or silenced by hegemonic structures and operating modes of cultural common sense. The view that their effects are ephemeral and insignificant is an incomplete and misguided evaluation. Since this paper adopts Hegel’s understanding of comedy as the spirit (Geist) made material, its very constitution, and thus its power, resides in exposing the internal thought processes often left unexamined, bringing them into the foreground, dissecting them, and exposing them for ridicule and transformation. In essence, the work of comedy is to consider all points of human processing and related structuration as fair game. The phenomenological nature of comedy calls for a micro-level examination. Select examples from The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour (1968), The Richard Pryor Show (1977), Saturday Night Live (1990), and Chappelle’s Show (2003) will demonstrate representative ways that comedy attacks and transforms racial hegemony. Keywords: comedy, cultural sociology, popular culture, race and racism, resistance. During periods of social unrest, what micro-level actions are available to the public? Or, how does a particular society respond to inequities that are widely shared and agreed upon as intolerable aspects of a society? One popular method to challenge a hegemonic structure, and to survive it, is comedy.

  • Israeli Journal for Humor Research, December 2017, Vol. 6 Issue No. 2 5
    Israeli Journal for Humor Research, August 2018, Vol. 7 Issue No. 1 4 Guest Editor’s Introduction Steven Gimbel* As Humor Studies writ large has continued to develop and blossom into a recognized and respected interdisciplinary field over the last two decades, so too the subfield Philosophy of Humor has gained a foothold of respectability in its disciplinary milieu. Professional organizations such as the International Association for the Philosophy of Humor and the Lighthearted Philosophers’ Society hold annual meetings, attracting both senior philosophers from more established corners of philosophic discourse who have begun to work on humor-related questions as well as younger scholars, junior faculty members, and graduate students who see philosophy of humor as their area of specialization. It is from this position of growth that a conference was organized at Bucknell University in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania from April 5th through 8th by Professor Sheila Linttot focusing on the ethics and aesthetics of stand-up comedy. Attracting some of the most well-known scholars in the field as well as earlier career researchers, the conference was unique in moving away from general discussions of humorous utterances in standard conversational contexts and instead sought to examine the philosophical ramifications of a specific aesthetic context, stand-up comedy. Drawing thinkers from North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and Australia, topics of talks and panels ranged over linguistic, epistemological, ethical, aesthetic, social-political, and ontological themes. Ever aware that stand-up comedy a practice, the philosophical work was interspersed with active participation in the art form. Two top name comedians, Paula Poundstone and Hari Kondobolu, performed on separate nights in front of large audiences sprinkled with philosophers.

RACIAL SATIRE AND CHAPPELLE’S SHOW by KATHARINE P. ZAKOS Under the Direction of Mary Stuckey ABSTRACT This thesis examines Chappelle's Show’s use of racial satire to challenge dominant stereotypes and the effectiveness of that satire as a tool to achieve perspective by incongruity. I use a variation of D’Acci’s circuit of media study model to examine the institutional challenges and limitations on the show due to the context in which it was created, produced, and distributed; to interrogate the strategies employed by the show’s writers/creators to overcome these challenges through the performance of race; and to analyze the audience’s understanding of the use of racial satire through a reception study of the show’s audience. I argue that using satire often has the unintended consequence of crossing the line between “sending up” a behavior and supporting it, essentially becoming that which it is trying to discount, though this is not to say that its intrinsic value is therefore completely negated.

  • Camp TV: Trans Gender Queer Sitcom History by Quinlan Miller
    Reviewed by Ken Feil Camp TV: Trans Gender Queer Sitcom History by Quinlan Miller. Duke University Press. 2019. 232 pages. $99.95 hardcover; $25.95 paper; also available in e-book. In Camp TV: Trans Gender Queer Sitcom History, Quinlan Miller presents a revelatory historical reassessment of the US network sitcom of the 1950s and 1960s in addition to rethinking camp, an ironic performance and reception sensibility usually associated with white, gay male culture. Arguing that non- binary gender is a constitutive element of both camp and situation comedy formulas, Miller disputes the assumptions of both television history and camp studies with meticulous research spanning institutional procedures, social- historical context, and textual features. The subject of camp remains marginal in television studies, as W. D. Phillips and Isabel Pinedo recently observed, despite holding a pivotal position in television history.1 Genealogies of cult TV, furthermore, have rendered camp either invisible or hovering in the fringes.2 Miller confirms the centrality of camp to television aesthetics at the same time as they challenge the typical historical narrative of camp TV, which begins in the 1960s with the iconic network series Batman (ABC, 1966– 1968) and the burgeoning mainstream currency of “camp” sensibility generated by 1 W. D. Phillips and Isabel Pinedo, “Gilligan and Captain Kirk Have More in Common Than You Think: 1960s Camp TV as an Alternative Genealogy for Cult TV,” Journal of Popular Television 6, no. 1 (2018): 23– 27, https://doi.org/10.1386/jptv.6.1.19_1. 2 Phillips and Pinedo, “Gilligan and Captain Kirk,” 21– 23; Philippe Le Guern, “Toward a Constructivist Approach to Media Cults,” in Cult Television, ed.
