(Editor's Note: Passages of interviews contained in. th!s report,have been edited only in terms of deletion for the sake of conciseness. Quoted materIal IS verbattm.) The events described by this woman, though shocking and disturbing, are true. The situation described is not uncommon in the State of Kentucky; in fact, the assault committed on this woman by her husband is an experience common to many wives. Wife beating is a crime of extraordinary I prevalence and intensity. The effects are devastating physically, psychologically, and socially for ! the woman, her children, and the batterer himself. -1- )I ~f I The purpose of this report is to examine peopl(>'s opinions and beliefs about the phenomenon of wife beating in Kentucky and to determine how these events are treated by agencies, in both the public and private sector. Information was gathered from approximately eighty interviews with in­ dividuals from all parts of Kentucky who have, or have had, direct involvement with spouse abuse. Included were professionals in the legal system, the helping systems, concerned citizens, and victims themselves. Most of the commentary is anonymous. A general assessment of opinions and beliefs wa:' the purpose of the report and anonymity seemed to allow some people more freedom of expres­ sion. Spouse abuse is a term used not only in reference to violence within the family unit and toward a spouse, but refers also to violence within intimate relationships that exist without the legal status of marriage. The first section of the report is a discussion of abused women with histories as told by the women themselves. Even though cmonymous, these women displayed much courage in talking directly to a THE stranger, and were frank about their painful experiences. The impact of violence on the children in the family is also discussed. What young people witness or engage in during bouts of violence between their parents frequently has a severely detrimental effect on their social development and BATTERED future relationships. A dim profile of the battering male is included, sketched largely ft'om the descriptions offered by the abused spouse and professionals in the area of behavioral psychology. Even with the historical evidence indicating long precedence for the abuse of women, the answer to WOMAN why, in specific situations, men beat their wives is still hypothetical, other than as a sociologist noted, that the fact is there is no one there to stop them. Finally, attention is given to the question, why do women tolerate the abuse, as this was a constant issue in each interview. The reality of the choices women have is addressed and the process of victimization is considered, offering some in­ AND sight into why a woman may "choose" to stay married to an abusive man.

  • Abstract Humanities Jordan Iii, Augustus W. B.S. Florida
    ABSTRACT HUMANITIES JORDAN III, AUGUSTUS W. B.S. FLORIDA A&M UNIVERSITY, 1994 M.A. CLARK ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, 1998 THE IDEOLOGICAL AND NARRATIVE STRUCTURES OF HIP-HOP MUSIC: A STUDY OF SELECTED HIP-HOP ARTISTS Advisor: Dr. Viktor Osinubi Dissertation Dated May 2009 This study examined the discourse of selected Hip-Hop artists and the biographical aspects of the works. The study was based on the structuralist theory of Roland Barthes which claims that many times a performer’s life experiences with class struggle are directly reflected in his artistic works. Since rap music is a counter-culture invention which was started by minorities in the South Bronx borough ofNew York over dissatisfaction with their community, it is a cultural phenomenon that fits into the category of economic and political class struggle. The study recorded and interpreted the lyrics of New York artists Shawn Carter (Jay Z), Nasir Jones (Nas), and southern artists Clifford Harris II (T.I.) and Wesley Weston (Lii’ Flip). The artists were selected on the basis of geographical spread and diversity. Although Hip-Hop was again founded in New York City, it has now spread to other parts of the United States and worldwide. The study investigated the biography of the artists to illuminate their struggles with poverty, family dysfunction, aggression, and intimidation. 1 The artists were found to engage in lyrical battles; therefore, their competitive discourses were analyzed in specific Hip-Hop selections to investigate their claims of authorship, imitation, and authenticity, including their use of sexual discourse and artistic rivalry, to gain competitive advantage.
