DAVIS The Latino Film Experience in History: A Dialogue The complexity of the Latino experience has yet to be adequately explored in film. As in Latino literary texts, most themes and characters in Latino films have emerged from the sensibilities of a community’s insertion into the North American reality. From these national experiences, filmmakers have been able to explore issues relevant to the broadly constructed ‘Latino’ community. -

Indeed, the first indige- nous U.S. popular music to capture the imagination of a broad public, at home and abroad, was blackface minstrelsy, a cultural form involving mostly Northern whites in blackened faces, parodying their perceptions of African American culture. Minstrelsy appeared at a time when songwriting and music publishing were dispersed throughout the country and sound record- The institution of slavery has been ing had not yet been invented. During this period, there was an such a defining feature of U.S. history that it is hardly surprising to find the important geographical pattern in the way music circulated.

In contrast, domestic popular music, including minstrel music, was first tested in smaller towns, then went to larger urban areas, and entered New York only after success elsewhere. Songwriting and music publishing were similarly dispersed. New York did not become the nerve center for indigenous popular music until later in the nineteenth century, when the pre- viously scattered conglomeration of songwriters and publishers began to converge on the Broadway and 28th Street section of the city, in an area that came to be called Tin Pan Alley after the tinny output of its upright pianos. -

Email: [email protected] Abstract: Cultural policy, including film policy, has played a crucial role in strengthening a country’s domestic and foreign policy. The United States of America’s attitude towards Latin America has been changed several times throughout the 20th century, depending on the current international situation. The aim of my article is to present the cinematographic aspects of this policy in the 1930s and the first half of the 1940s, within the framework of the Good Neighbor Policy, formulated by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. -

OVERVIEW Following an introductory section that sets out the context and themes of the course, we evaluate a range of development strategies. Neoliberal reform, shifting from an initial, austere Washington Consensus to an augmented agenda often identified as the Post-Washington Consensus, has dominated the theory and practice of development since 1980; we therefore devote 10 sessions to understanding the origins, evolution, political implications and performance of this evolving policy paradigm. Case studies of neoliberal reform in Latin America, Africa, and Asia complement our discussion of general themes and issues. The final section of the course deals with development alternatives to the mainstream paradigm. These alternatives operate at one or more of three levels: local, national and global. To achieve such goals as prosperity, fairness, poverty reduction, freedom and/or environmental sustainability, activists and scholars have recently explored nationally-based social-democratic, ‘twenty-first-century’ socialist, and revived developmental-state strategies, projects of local empowerment or community-centred development and programs for reforming or transforming global economic governance. We probe the nature, practicability and desirability of these development alternatives. 2. ORGANIZATION AND REQUIREMENTS One of the instructors will introduce the topic of the first five sessions. -

Messages of American Popular Song to Women During World War II
“I’m Doin’ It for Defense”: Messages of American Popular Song to Women during World War II A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF MUSIC in the Division of Composition, Musicology, and Theory of the College-Conservatory of Music 2013 by Amy Brooks BM, Bob Jones University, 2008 Committee Chair: bruce d. mcclung, PhD Abstract World War II presented many new opportunities for American women. In this time of need, they were called upon to take an active part in the war effort, whether by means of working in a factory, growing a victory garden, or serving as a volunteer for wartime organizations. Women made great strides forward in areas such as the workforce and the military. The American popular song industry promoted these new roles for women. I have compiled over 150 songs from 1940 to1945 that relate to women’s roles during the World War II era. Of these songs, I have chosen a select number of songs that best demonstrate popular culture’s attitudes and actions towards women during the war. These songs can be divided into five categories: women in the military, women in the workforce, women’s war effort, women’s responsibilities to men in uniform, and women in the immediate post-war period. I have studied the representative songs by considering their lyrics to identify the objectives supported by the popular song industry. I took into consideration the venues in which they were presented and how these performances influenced their reception.
