Gospel Music and the Sonic Fictions of Black Womanhood in Twentieth-Century African American Literature
“UP ABOVE MY HEAD”: GOSPEL MUSIC AND THE SONIC FICTIONS OF BLACK WOMANHOOD IN TWENTIETH-CENTURY AFRICAN AMERICAN LITERATURE Kimberly Gibbs Burnett A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the degree requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English and Comparative Literature in the Graduate School. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Danielle Christmas Florence Dore GerShun Avilez Glenn Hinson Candace Epps-Robertson ©2020 Kimberly Gibbs Burnett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kimberly Burnett: “Up Above My Head”: Gospel Music and the Sonic Fictions of Black Womanhood in TWentieth-Century African American Literature (Under the direction of Dr. Danielle Christmas) DraWing from DuBois’s Souls of Black Folk (1903), which highlighted the Negro spirituals as a means of documenting the existence of a soul for an African American community culturally reduced to their bodily functions, gospel music figures as a reminder of the narrative of black women’s struggle for humanity and of the literary markers of a black feminist ontology. As the attention to gospel music in texts about black women demonstrates, the material conditions of poverty and oppression did not exclude the existence of their spiritual value—of their claim to humanity that was not based on conduct or social decorum. At root, this project seeks to further the scholarship in sound and black feminist studies— applying concepts, such as saturation, break, and technology to the interpretation of black womanhood in the vernacular and cultural recordings of gospel in literature. Further, this dissertation seeks to offer neW historiography of black female development in tWentieth century literature—one which is shaped by a sounding culture that took place in choir stands, on radios in cramped kitchens, and on stages all across the nation.

Mired Electronic Press Kit
MIRED ELECTRONIC PRESS KIT Page 2 of 18 PRODUCER'S NOTE MIRED (verb): 1. "To cause to sink or become stuck in mire." 2. "To hinder, entrap, or entangle." That, to me, is at the very heart of what MIRED is about. It's the story of a man who has literally and figuratively gotten stuck. Stuck in the past. Stuck in his grief. Stuck in his regret. When I first discovered the short story MUD by Geoffrey Forsyth, I was totally taken by the fact that it isn't just one thing. It's sad, yet funny. It's dark, yet endearing and inspiring. And through all of that, it's still quite ambiguous. It was all of these qualities that lit a fire within in me and made me, both as an actor and a producer, want to adapt this story into a film. Tony Glazer was the first person I contacted to ask to write and direct this adaption -- I knew he was the perfect choice -- but that belief was further validated when he had the same reaction to the short story that I did, and even more so when I read his fantastic adaption, MIRED. It is my belief that what MIRED is really about -- what is really happening -- has the potential to be different for each person watching it based on what they bring to it. With that in mind, I look forward to hearing what MIRED was for you. -- Neil Holland, Producer DIRECTOR'S NOTE When I first read MUD by Geoffrey Forsyth, I found myself immediately confronted with themes of grief, ambition and regret.

LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48Th Street , Manhattan
Landmarks Preservation Commission December 8, 1987; Designation List 197 LP-1348 LONGACRE THEATER, 220-228 West 48th Street , Manhattan. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 1019, Lot 50. Built 1912-13; architect, Henry B. Herts. On June 14 and 15, 1982 , the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a pub 1 ic hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the Longacre Theater and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No.44). The hearing was continued to October 19, 1982. Both hearings had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Eighty witnesses spoke or had statements read into the record in favor of designation. One witness spoke in opposition to designation. The owner, with his representatives, appeared at the hearing, and indicated that he had not formulated an opinion regarding designation. The Commission has received many letters and other expressions of support in favor of this designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS The Longacre Theater survives today as one of the historic playhouses that symbolize American theater for both New York and the nation. Constructed in 1912-13, the Longacre was built to house the productions of Broadway producer and baseball magnate Harry H. Frazee . Designed for Frazee by Henry Herts, prominent theater architect, the Longacre is among the earliest surviving Broadway theaters, and has an exceptionally handsome facade. Like most Broadway playhouses built before World War I, the Longacre was designed by a leading theater architect to house the offices and theatrical productions of its owner. Though known as a baseball magnate, and at one time the owner of the Boston Red Sox, Frazee was also an influential Broadway producer who, besides building the Longacre theater, at one time also owned two other Broadway houses (the Harris and the Lyric).
