  • Michael C. Coleman University of Jyvaskyla. Finland William Mandel
    considering some of their possibly positive contributions to perceptions of natives, Vizenor fumes: I have not been fierce enough about anthropology. There are no measures of fierceness that could be reparations for the theft of native'irony, humor, aud original stories. There's not enough time to be critical of the academic enterprise of cultural anthropology. This work that plagues every native in the universe is despicable; it's only in the interests of profits and power that these studies and siin~~lationsof cult~ueare given institutional authority. Cultural anthropologists pose with their booty, and universities honor these academic predators (emphasis added) with advanced degrees.... (90) Not all his opinions are so polemical. He olfers tantalizing comment on the some- times sharp disagreements between contemporary native writers such as the late Michael Dorris, Louise Erdrich, Leslie Silko, Louis Owens, Sherman Alexie, and others (I won't spoil the fun by revealing Vizenor's preferences). And underlying much of his vitriol is a passionate belief that natives must be 'present' in America as real people, not as stereotypes (which even well-meaning whites and AIM radicals, in his view, perpetuate). Natives must not succumb to 'victimry,' a constant whining to impress the media. 'Survivance' (a combination of survival, resistance, and the upset- ting of binaries) should be the strategy for natives and for himself as a writer. 'Survi- vance stories honor the humor and tragic wisdom of the situations, not the market value of victimry,' he writes (37). This was my most difficult review assignment yet. Beyond Vizenor's promiscuous coining of new words which mean what he wants them to mean, his use of language is often personal, even eccentric, and sporadically postmodernist - a challenging combination! For me the experience was like driving in foggy weather: as the fog momentarily lifted I came upon scenes of powerful clarity and even beauty - to be followed by more fog, then by more clarity.

  • KPFK Folio Is Published Month- Ly by KPFK-Ftvl, a Non-Protit
    Open your ears — IN MEMORIAM: SASHA SHOR (October 2, 1890 — February 17, 1968) In search for the words which would best express a fitting tribute to the memory of Sasha Shor I concluded that Sasha's own words about himself would serve better than anything I could say. After listening to 32 sessions on Cuisine Bourgeoise and attending some of his classes, I would add that only Sasha could introduce a recipe Coq au Vin or Mousse Chocolat and proceed to reveal the man and his philosophy for living. Among his epigrammatic instructions one heard, "You dont cook to impress your friends, you cook to please them." He believed that "in order to cook well, one must have plenty of love.* And that "a little more or less* was no crime. His concept of the truth was not an intellectual one, but rather an emotional experience to be shared at the very moment of its happening; so that, to come into contact with Sasha, however briefly, was to find oneself encom- passed by hiscameraderie, goodhumor, concern but without fear, and above all, hope. He took issue with our Declaration of Independence on its "unalienable right . to the pursuit of happiness." He felt that "happiness* is the moment that isi "How can you PURSUE happiness?" he would ask. The word "happy* seemed to be one of the most frequently used in Sasha's vocabulary. Shrimp are cooked just right when they blush pink with happiness. A good wine is one that brings "smiles in the mouth." The taste of one of culinary delights can be "amusing." The only kind of garlic to us is "happy gloves" (cloves).

  • Media Moralities, Comedic Inversions, and the First Amendment Anna Lisa
    "Pigs Ate My Roses": Media moralities, comedic inversions, and the First Amendment Anna Lisa Candido Department of Art History and Communication Studies McGill University Montreal, Quebec March 2018 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Communication Studies. © Anna Candido, 2018 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the politics of morality that structured the moral development of mass and niche media forms in America between the 1930s and late 1970s. In order to understand how media became entangled in moral struggles, this work begins by tracing the rise of moral regulation in film and broadcasting in the 1930s and 40s, and the ways that live performance, narrowcast recording, and listener-sponsored radio enabled forms of expression around gender, sexuality, race, crime, and vice that had been unconstitutionally prohibited in mass media. To do this, this dissertation examines a number of critical moments at which community and religious groups charged performers or media players with the loosely-defined concepts of “obscenity” or “indecency” as a way of establishing moral boundaries in mediated culture. By charging Mae West, Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, and listener-sponsored radio stations with obscenity or indecency, groups like the Legion of Decency and Morality in Media (in concert with other state and industry players) exerted significant control over forms of expression that may have otherwise circulated freely under the protection of the First Amendment. Although these groups succeeded in producing discursive and representational limits in film and broadcasting between the 1930s and 1970s, the semi-hiddenness of live performance spaces, niche recordings, and listener-sponsored radio partially or temporarily sheltered controversial performers and allowed like-minded people to convene over unorthodox expressions that more adequately reflected the depth and complexity of their affective states, experiences, or social positions.
