  • Introduction 1 Theorizing Women's Singleness: Postfeminism
    Notes Introduction 1. See Ringrose and Walkerdine’s work on how the boundaries of femininity are policed, constituting some subject positions – those against which normative femininity comes to be defined – ‘uninhabitable’ (2008, p. 234). 1 Theorizing Women’s Singleness: Postfeminism, Neoliberalism, and the Politics of Popular Culture 1. Lewis and Moon (1997) have observed that women’s singleness is at once glamorized and stigmatized, however I suggest, and explore how, this is a particular feature of postfeminist media culture. 2. As Jill Reynolds argues, ‘the cultural context today incorporates new repre- sentations of singleness while continuing to draw on older, more devalued notions that being single is a problem for women: generally to be resolved through commitment to a heterosexual relationship’ (2008, p. 2). 3. In early feminist studies of how women were represented in the media, the ‘images of women’ style criticism dominated, arguing that women were mis- represented in and through the mainstream media and that such ‘negative’ rep- resentations had deleterious effects on the women who consumed them. This is a position that has been thoroughly critiqued and replaced by more nuanced approaches to both signification and consumption. See Walters’ chapter ‘From Images of Women to Woman as Image’ for a rehearsal of these debates (1995). 4. For example, in her critical text Postfeminisms, Ann Brooks (1997) conceptual- izes it in terms of the intersections of feminism, poststructuralism, postmod- ernism, and postcolonialism. Others have theorized it primarily as a popular manifestation which effectively represents an updated form of antifeminism (Faludi, 1991; Walters, 1995; Kim, 2001). 5. The idea that postfeminism is itself constituted by contradiction, ‘the product of competing discourses and interests’ (Genz & Brabon, 2009, p.

I Love New York: Does New York Love Me? By Shannon B. Campbell1, Steven S. Giannino, Chrystal R. China, Christopher S. Harris2 Abstract This article seeks to highlight reality television’s most popular rearticulation of the Jezebel and the Sapphire stereotypes while assessing its implications for African American women. Nearly eight decades after their inception in mass mediated culture, the Jezebel and Sapphire stereotypes have been reborn in the form of Tiffany Pollard, better known as “New York”, and her mother “Sister Patterson” (respectively). Television acts as a powerful socialization agent, and thus plays a significant role in how audiences shape their racially stratified and gendered world.

  • The Heterosexual Economies of Emotion and Romance in the Bachelorette
    An Investment in Love: The Heterosexual Economies of Emotion and Romance in The Bachelorette Louisa Grenham Sociology and Anthropology Department of Swarthmore College April 30th, 2019 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professor Farha Ghannam for her kind encouragement and overall brilliance, Professor Maya Nadkarni for her guiding hand, Professor Fraga for watching the show, and finally Dietrich and Chaleo for their unwavering motivation and support. Table of Contents Introduction: Positioning Oneself Toward Feeling ......................................... 1-14 Tracing the Shadows of Affect ............................................................... 15-30 Marketed Selves, Invested Objects .......................................................... .31-51 Performance, Gender and The Emotive Economy ........................................ 52-70 Conclusion: In Exchange for Love ....................................................................................... 71-77 Introduction: Positioning Oneself Toward Feeling Mythologies around love and romance have long structured our comprehension of intimacy and connection. Love is probably one of the first emotions we made aware of, it is positioned as the thing that binds together the family, that is the reason for being brought into the world. Romantic love in particular is set as the creator of families, the reason for procreation and marriage. Love as an emotion has shifted into a fantastical realm where it is the reason behind our very creation, it is a nice thing to think we are born because of love. Love holds both status as an emotion and as a structure. I understand love, the felt emotion to be shaped by Love, the product of social and cultural power systems and hegemony which arranges our relationships. The latter is the piece I am most interested in, the ways that love has become co opted as a means to structure and regulate relationships, inextricably tied with sexuality and social position.

  • Scripted Ensemble Drama Series "DTLA" Makes U.S. Television Premiere on Logo
    Scripted Ensemble Drama Series "DTLA" Makes U.S. Television Premiere on Logo The First Kickstarter Funded Television Series to Receive Domestic and International Distribution, "DTLA" Premieres on Logo Wednesday, October 24th at 11 PM ET/PT To Tweet this Release: http://logo.to/SlGLt3 NEW YORK, Sept. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Logo announced today that the independently financed, scripted ensemble drama series "DTLA" will make its U.S. television premiere on Logo. From the executive producer of the "The L Word" and the star of "Noah's Arc," "DTLA" depicts the relationships and sex lives of eight friends with varied ethnic, cultural, and sexual orientations that work and live in the vibrant community of Downtown Los Angeles. Starring Darryl Stephens ("Noah's Arc") and a cavalcade of notable supporting cast including Golden Globe winning, and Academy Award nominated Melanie Griffith, Sandra Bernhard and Leslie Jordan, it's a story of love, friendship, loyalty, and being true to oneself — no matter what the cost. "DTLA" kicks off with an hour-long U.S. television premiere on Wednesday, October 24th at 11 PM ET/PT on Logo, followed by seven, 30-minute weekly episodes. "DTLA" tells the story of a diverse group of friends, all at crossroads in their lives. Darryl Stephens ("Noah's Arc") stars as Lenny, a civil litigation attorney who reunites with his college friend SJ (Marshelle Fair) during the breaking point in her marriage and while his own long-term relationship with Bryan (Matthew Stephen Herrick) starts to crumble. Also in the mix are Kai (Hiro Tanaka), a young teacher obsessed with hooking up with his celeb crush; Marky (Scott Pretty), a young Marine cadet, and his boyfriend Matthew (Patrick McDonald), a newcomer to LA who will stop at nothing to make it as an actor; and Stefan (Ernest Pierce), an outspoken lawyer struggling to make his relationship work with his much younger boyfriend Trey (JC Jones) after finding out about his secret life.

    Page 1 2 of 16 DOCUMENTS Copyright (c) 2008 Regents of the University of California Berkeley Journal of African-American Law & Policy 2008 10 Berkeley J. Afr.-Am. L. & Pol'y 92 LENGTH: 8673 words ARTICLE & ESSAY: Do You Really Love New York?: Exposing the Troubling Relationship Between Popular Racial Imagery and Social Policy in the 21st Century NAME: Imani Perry* BIO: * Professor of Law, Rutgers School of Law-Camden, Distinguished Visitor, Princeton University Center for Af- rican American Studies 2007-2008. SUMMARY: ... In today's post-welfare reform society one can see the reconstitution of popular stereotypic images that were so critical in the political arguments about pre-1996 welfare state brokenness. ... Given that the majority of black children are currently born out of wedlock (62% in 2004), what is the potential impact of images like those in the paternity test shows on our perceptions of black parents, children, and families? ... If, instead, one drew a dividing line based upon level of parental involvement and engagement, there might evolve one category composed of investment bankers and street corner hustlers, with low levels of engagement, and another category composed of teachers and unemployed stay-at-home-fathers, who engage more substantially with their children. ... In contrast, the images reinforced by real- ity shows such as The Maury Povich Show, rely on a belief that single parents ought to live unassisted with the conse- quences of their own misdeeds. ... Reality television not only coincides with the behavioralist narrative (sometimes in grotesque fashion, as in the instance on Flavor of Love in which a black female contestant defecated on the floor be- cause she couldn't figure out how to make the appropriate decision to leave the room and go to the bathroom, an exam- ple of extreme inability to make the most basic of decisions or behave in an appropriate manner) but also gives it cre- dence in a way perhaps impossible in any other media venue.

Banks, Rhimes, and Perry are among the few prominent African American executive producers working in an industry of inequality. Each is the creative figure behind a prominent prime-time television show. This project contributes to the discussion of race and representation in the field of television studies.
