Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?

  • The Mixtape: a Case Study in Emancipatory Journalism
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: THE MIXTAPE: A CASE STUDY IN EMANCIPATORY JOURNALISM Jared A. Ball, Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Directed By: Dr. Katherine McAdams Associate Professor Philip Merrill College of Journalism Associate Dean, Undergraduate Studies During the 1970s the rap music mixtape developed alongside hip-hop as an underground method of mass communication. Initially created by disc-jockeys in an era prior to popular “urban” radio and video formats, these mixtapes represented an alternative, circumventing traditional mass medium. However, as hip-hop has come under increasing corporate control within a larger consolidated media ownership environment, so too has the mixtape had to face the challenge of maintaining its autonomy. This media ownership consolidation, vertically and horizontally integrated, has facilitated further colonial control over African America and has exposed as myth notions of democratizing media in an undemocratic society. Acknowledging a colonial relationship the writer created FreeMix Radio: The Original Mixtape Radio Show where the mixtape becomes both a source of free cultural expression and an anti-colonial emancipatory journalism developed as a “Third World” response to the needs of postcolonial nation-building. This dissertation explores the contemporary colonizing effects of media consolidation, cultural industry function, and copyright ownership, concluding that the development of an underground press that recognizes the tremendous disparities in advanced technological access (the “digital divide”) appears to be the only viable alternative. The potential of the mixtape to serve as a source of emancipatory journalism is studied via a three-pronged methodological approach: 1) An explication of literature and theory related to the history of and contemporary need for resistance media, 2) an analysis of the mixtape as a potential underground mass press and 3) three focus group reactions to the mixtape as resistance media, specifically, the case study of the writer’s own FreeMix Radio: The Original Mixtape Radio Show.

  • Note “There Be No Shelter Here”*: Anti
    \\server05\productn\C\CJP\20-2\CJP207.txt unknown Seq: 1 11-JAN-11 11:56 NOTE “THERE BE NO SHELTER HERE”*: ANTI-IMMIGRANT HOUSING ORDINANCES AND COMPREHENSIVE REFORM Daniel Eduardo Guzm´an** This Note examines anti-immigrant housing ordinances (AIHOs) that explicitly single out immigrants and facially-neutral AIHOs that lo- cal officials use to target immigrants. Lozano v. City of Hazleton (Lozano II) underscores how effective preemption-doctrine-based chal- lenges can be against municipalities that have local ordinances singling out immigrants. On the other hand, immigrant-rights groups have had little success bringing legal challenges against municipalities that use facially-neutral housing ordinances to target immigrants because such ordinances are enacted pursuant to traditional state powers, and ex- empted from regulation under the Fair Housing Act. As a result, munici- palities will circumvent preemption-doctrine-based challenges to their ordinances by moving towards facially-neutral ordinances that target immigrant housing patterns just as effectively (either by tightening household occupancy restrictions or discriminatorily enforcing the ordi- nances). This Note argues that the only effective way to challenge state and local anti-immigrant activism is to grapple with both kinds of AIHOs. An effective solution would work towards distinguishing federal interests in the regulation of immigration from state interests in housing and other traditional state powers. The federal government should ex- tend its role in regulating immigration by expanding protection against discrimination based on alienage and legal status. The federal govern- ment should also circumscribe its role by providing states with greater latitude to craft housing regulations and policy.

    FREE RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE: STAGE FIGHTERS PDF Paul Stenning | 208 pages | 04 Sep 2008 | John Blake Publishing Ltd | 9781906191078 | English | London, United Kingdom You are being redirected Born seemingly from the fire and rage of the L. Vocalist and rapper Zack de la Rocha, guitarist Tom Morello, bassist and backup vocalist Tim Commerford, and drummer Brad Wilk crafted an electrifying and unforgettable brand of politically charged rap-rock that launched them to instant commercial and critical success with their self-titled debut. It's incredibly Rage Against the Machine: Stage Fighters for any commercially successful artist to be able to remain true to their political ideals, but RATM somehow managed to Rage Against the Machine: Stage Fighters that incredibly thin tightrope with each new album until their breakup in It's not surprising that a band with controversial political views would encounter strife and challenges during their career. In fact, the personal tragedies and struggles of the band members had a heavy hand in directing their ideals. It's because of the long, hard road to finding their voices that songs like "Killing in the Name" and "Bulls on Parade" still resonate today. His father, Roberto "Beto" de la Rocha, was a muralist whose politically charged Chicano artworks with Los Four introduced the radical art style to the area. According to the L. Timesthe elder de la Rocha was part of a landmark Chicano art exhibition in Rage Against the Machine: Stage Fighters mid-'70s, but shortly afterward, he destroyed all his paintings and retreated from the art world for 20 years.

  • Anger Is a Gift: Propaganda, Performance E Documentário Nos Rage Against the Machine
    ANGER IS A GIFT: PROPAGANDA, PERFORMANCE E DOCUMENTÁRIO NOS RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE Luís Nogueira Resumo: Há cerca de 20 anos, e durante a década de 1990, os Rage Against the Machine não mudaram o mundo, mas esforçaram-se por provocar pequenos abalos estéticos (ao nível da criação musical) e éticos (ao nível da intervenção cívica). A produção visual que acompanhou a sua música apresentou-se tão ousada e invulgar quanto aquela: videoclips baseados em found footage e atuações ao vivo, filmes-concerto que procuraram captar a energia visceral da performance live e uma forte mensagem propagandística a atravessar quer a música quer as imagens que a acompanham parecem-nos aspetos dignos de nota e merecedores de reflexão. É disso mesmo que nos ocupamos neste artigo, de uma banda onde o cruzamento entre videoclip e documentário assume uma relevância nunca vista na indústria do entretenimento e na cultura musical contemporânea. Palavras-chave: Rage Against the Machine, documentário, videoclip, propaganda. Resumen: Desde hace unos 20 años, y en especial durante la década de 1990, el grupo Rage Against the Machine no ha cambiado el mundo, pero se ha esforzado en provocar pequeñas sacudidas estéticas (en lo que concierne a la creación musical) y éticas (en el ámbito de la intervención cívica). La producción visual que acompaña su música ha llegado a ser tan audaz e inusual como aquélla: videoclips basados en metraje encontrado y actuaciones en directo, películas-concierto que buscaban captar la energía visceral de las interpretaciones en vivo y un fuerte mensaje propagandístico que atraviesa tanto la música como las imágenes que la acompañan nos parecen aspectos dignos de nota y merecedores de reflexión.
