Cohen Professor Jason De León, University of California, Los Angeles Professor Camille M. Wilson Professor Alford A. Young Kimberly C. Ransom [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0001-6155-7185 © Kimberly C. Ransom 2021 Dedication To God, who put a song in my heart. This dissertation is dedicated to my ancestors, who deserve monuments. Their blood is my blood and I know they have called me to this place, this time, to see their world as my own. The blood is my love and my love is etched, in little flakes of words on these pages. …to my Mommy, thank you for going back with me, to Alabama. Thank you for your strength, your care, your support, and Spats after a long work week. Thank you for your deep love of people and community and justice. Those things are in my blood because of you. I love you deep, Mommy. You are my gift. …to my Dad, thank you for showing me the world, for gifting me your fire, for letting me ride shot gun, for challenging my thoughts, for showing me the arts, and for making me watch history channel, and for Gyros up North on Saturday nights. Those things are in my blood because of you. I love you deep, Daddy. You are my gift. …the elders gone on and still here, …to my Grandmother, Ollie Rose Neal Spruill who kept sending me 7:11 throughout this whole process. I will keep searching, Gran. I love you and wish I would've known all you had done in Pickens while you were here. I give you beauty for ashes. I love you deep. You are my gift. …to my Grandmother, Prennie Ransom Andrews, all that I see that is beautiful comes from you. Thank you for giving me my love of things. These materials are in my blood because of you. I love you deep. You are my gift. …to my Aunt Jean, thank you for always telling me boldly, to shine …to my Aunt Sylvia Neal Richardson, you have resurrected the South in my soul, you have given me the answers I was searching for, you are the bridge in my blood, the pistol in my purse, and the winds that race my hair up and down the roads there in Ethelsville. I love you deep. You are my gift. For my Ella, you are my heart, all that I am, all this blood in my veins is for you. I lay this history at your feet, daughter, that you may ALWAYS know who you are and to whom you belong. I thank you for taking this ride with me. I love you deep, deep, deep. You are my gift that keeps giving. ii Acknowledgements It takes a village. I have been so blessed with an incredible village in the spirit world and here on this earthly plane. I am so grateful to God, who walks with me and orders my steps – who understands the desires of my heart and has granted me a playground to explore my curiosities among and with a beautiful group of souls. I can't describe how I have felt a divine ordering around this project, seeded when I was just 17 years old when I visited my ancestral grounds for the first time. At that time, I thought I would return to learn more about this place. I had no idea what would unfold. I can only speculate that God knew, and so … all things have been just as a seed grows into a flower my search has found a page. To my daughter, Ella Niani Kazembe. This legacy is yours to hold. May our days in Alabama settle in your bones and remind you who and who's you are. May your steps stride wide propelled with the spirits of our ancestors. May your life be ordered, bold, graceful, and filled with love. I thank you for taking this journey with me. For laying your hands next to mine in the soil, on the wood, cutting and molding and dreaming with me. I will be there for your dreams too. I am thankful for the beautiful girl you are. You are my deepest and boldest dream, I'm glad you answered my call. Thank you. I love you. Deep and always, across all life times. Carla O'Connor, my beloved advisor, I can't begin to thank you for all you have done to carry me through. Your support, care, pushing, pulling, grappling, laughing, and deep commitment have been unprecedented. I can only thank you for the countless hours you have given me and for ushering me into my dreams. May God order and bless your steps. David Cohen, I can't express the depth of what you have meant to me along this journey. I wish you could have been here to cross the finish line with me, but I feel you and I thank you for all that you have done and continue to do from on high. I will miss our coffee talks, your energy, and your bold love for academics, your students, and the goodness of life. May your soul rest easy my dear friend… Camille Wilson, my cherished mentor, I thank you for all your guidance, mentorship, and for pulling me into your scholarly world. I have learned so, so, so much and appreciate your commitment to helping me become a scholar. Your care for community, students, and education is so inspiring. I'm so proud to be a part of your work and to have learned so much from you as a scholar. May God order and bless your steps. iii Jason DeLeón, it goes without question that I have been so inspired by you and your work. Your commitment to weaving together scholarship, the arts, and activism breathtaking and has fueled my own work. I thank you for being a wonderful teacher, mentor, and support. Furthermore, I thank you for being a model of all that is possible for a scholar who desires to organize for human causes. May God order and bless your steps. Alford A. Young, I am forever grateful for your stepping in at a time when I needed tremendous support. You taught me about the Village and how we must continue to lift one another not only in our scholarship but in our service to one another. I thank you most sincerely. Furthermore, I have been inspired by the work you have done to help students grapple with ethnography and issues related to African American peoples. I have learned a great deal and those efforts have influenced my work. Thank you with most sincerity. May God order and bless your steps. I must apologize for the brevity of my thanks; I can express how much I have been blessed by the University of Michigan School of Education community and I will remember these days with such fondness and awe. I feel like I've been in a whirlwind, tidal wave, tsunami of goodness and challenges and obstacles and delights and frailties and strengths. I have laughed, and loved, and grappled, and coffee'd (a lot). I have pondered so many perplexing, hard, and beautiful things too. I have been so blessed to commit myself so pointedly to thinking among people who have done the same. I pray we remain a sticky web, no matter where the winds blow, we ain't comin' apart. Ashé. My Dr. Gurls – Crystal, Amber, Aixa – I could not have done this without you. No words to express how much I cherish Us. The Dr. Mothers – Ruqayahh, Ayanna, Sauda – may our children shine. I love you! I couldn't have done it without us!!! My Village – I'm so sorry I couldn't list everyone. I love you – family and friends. You know what it is –Alison, Danielle, Dina, Neva, Donna. I love you to life! With love and deep gratitude to my Alabama once-children, and my Neal-Richardson Family. To the Locke Sisters and the Pickensville Schoolhouse.

  • Part 7 Miranda Camp Lies
    Part 7 Miranda I forgot that I might see So many beautiful things I forgot that I might need To find out what life could bring —Andain, "Beautiful Things" Camp Lies My parents got divorced the summer before ninth grade. My father was with someone else right away. In fact, though my mother never said so, I think this was the reason they got divorced. After the divorce, I hardly ever saw my father. And my mother acted stranger than ever. It's not that she was unstable or anything: just distant. Remote. My mother is the kind of person who has a happy face for the rest of the world but not a lot left over for me. She's never talked to me much—not about her feelings, her life. I don't know much about what she was like when she was my age. Don't know much about the things she liked or didn't like. The few times she mentioned her own parents, who I've never met, it was mostly about how she wanted to get as far away from them as she could once she'd grown up. She never told me why. I asked a few times, but she would pretend she hadn't heard me. I didn't want to go to camp that summer. I had wanted to stay with her, to help her through the divorce. But she insisted I go away. I figured she wanted the alone time, so I gave it to her. Camp was awful. I hated it.

    OLYMPIA YACHT CLUB February 2018 Commodore Captain Bill Sloane First Mate Lorie Sloane S/V Endless Summer ometimes I hear people I suspect that for many members of our club, boats S talking in coffee shops have the same effect on them as I describe above. I think and restaurants about how those of us with boats enjoy the company of others with they have to get rid of their the same affliction. OYC is a great place to accomplish all boat, that the boat “just is- of this. We have plenty of events coming up for you to n’t working out,” that it is share with fellow club members. The bridge officers de- “losing value,” that they scribe as much on the following pages of this newsletter. don’t “use it enough.” These are all very valid Commodore Bill Sloane points, yet I still like our [email protected] boat and want to keep it. (360) 280-3276 Why is that? First Mate Lorie Sloane [email protected] Owning a boat in the Pacific Northwest is really about S/V Endless Summer relaxing, stepping off the too fast treadmill we find our- selves on that defines our culture and lifestyle, slowing down and enjoying a moment in time, an afternoon or morning, when the only sound you hear is the caw of a seagull or the lapping of water against the hull. It’s look- ing out to the horizon where the only thing you see is the horizon, maybe a tree line in the distance, a ripple on the water where a seal has just disappeared.

  • A Rundown of What's Going on with Penny Arcade
    12/27/2014 A Rundown of What’s Going on with Penny Arcade Now | A Rundown of What’s Going on with Penny Arcade Now Posted on June 20, 2013 by Tami Baribeau It hasn’t been that long since the last time Penny Arcade did something that cast the company in a negative light, but here we are again with another fiasco that’s been making its way around Twitter today. I thought it would be helpful to do a quick rundown of the events from today to make everyone aware of the situation and help answer some questions about why you might want to rethink supporting Penny Arcade, PAX, or anything affiliated with that organization. It all started today when this panel was posted from PAX Australia, titled “Why So Serious? Has the Industry Forgotten That Games Are Supposed to Be Fun?”. The original screencap of the description is below. “Why does the game industry garner such scrutiny from outside sources and within? Every point aberration gets called into question, reviewers are constantly criticised and developers and publishers professionally and personally attacked. Any titillation gets called out as sexist or misogynistic and involve any antagonist race other than Anglo-Saxons and you’re a racist. It’s gone too far and when will it all end? How can we get off the soapbox and work together to bring a new constructive age into fruition?” There is so much wrong with this panel description that I don’t even know where to begin. The idea that games as a medium are exempt from criticism because they’re “supposed to be fun” is ridiculous and immature.

  • BENNY GOLSON NEA Jazz Master (1996)
    1 Funding for the Smithsonian Jazz Oral History Program NEA Jazz Master interview was provided by the National Endowment for the Arts. BENNY GOLSON NEA Jazz Master (1996) Interviewee: Benny Golson (January 25, 1929 - ) Interviewer: Anthony Brown with recording engineer Ken Kimery Date: January 8-9, 2009 Repository: Archives Center, National Museum of American History, Smithsonian Institution Description: Transcript, 119 pp. Brown: Today is January 8th, 2009. My name is Anthony Brown, and with Ken Kimery we are conducting the Smithsonian National Endowment for the Arts Oral History Program interview with Mr. Benny Golson, arranger, composer, elder statesman, tenor saxophonist. I should say probably the sterling example of integrity. How else can I preface my remarks about one of my heroes in this music, Benny Golson, in his house in Los Angeles? Good afternoon, Mr. Benny Golson. How are you today? Golson: Good afternoon. Brown: We’d like to start – this is the oral history interview that we will attempt to capture your life and music. As an oral history, we’re going to begin from the very beginning. So if you could start by telling us your first – your full name (given at birth), your birthplace, and birthdate. Golson: My full name is Benny Golson, Jr. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The year is 1929. Brown: Did you want to give the exact date? Golson: January 25th. For additional information contact the Archives Center at 202.633.3270 or [email protected] 2 Brown: That date has been – I’ve seen several different references. Even the Grove Dictionary of Jazz had a disclaimer saying, we originally published it as January 26th.
