Each year we host the Bruce F. Vento Public Service Award event to honor an outstanding elected official and conservationist and celebrate NPT's accomplishments. The invitation is below and attached. The short program will give you a chance to hear about the important and effective projects we have underway and the highlight of the evening is hearing directly from some over the under-served children in our programs.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.

  • Chapter 11), Making the Events That Occur Within the Time and Space Of
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION: IN PRAISE OF BABBITTRY. SORT OF. SPATIAL PRACTICES IN SUBURBIA Kenneth Jackson’s Crabgrass Frontiers, one of the key histories of American suburbia, marshals a fascinating array of evidence from sociology, geography, real estate literature, union membership profiles, the popular press and census information to represent the American suburbs in terms of population density, home-ownership, and residential status. But even as it notes that “nothing over the years has succeeded in gluing this automobile-oriented civilization into any kind of cohesion – save that of individual routine,” Jackson’s comprehensive history under-analyzes one of its four key suburban traits – the journey-to-work.1 It is difficult to account for the paucity of engagements with suburban transportation and everyday experiences like commuting, even in excellent histories like Jackson’s. In 2005, the average American spent slightly more than twenty-five minutes per day commuting, a time investment that, over the course of a year, translates to more time commuting than he or she will likely spend on vacation.2 Highway-dependent suburban sprawl perpetually moves farther across the map in search of cheap available land, often moving away from both traditional central 1 In the introduction, Jackson describes journey-to-work’s place in suburbia with average travel time and distance in opposition to South America (home of siestas) and Europe, asserting that “an easier connection between work and residence is more valued and achieved in other cultures” (10). 2 One 2003 news report calculates the commuting-to-vacation ratio at 5-to-4: “Americans spend more than 100 hours commuting to work each year, according to American Community Survey (ACS) data released today by the U.S.

  • Trajetórias De Vida Em Perspectiva Histórica: Joey Ramone E Marky Ramone Life Trajectories in Historical Perspective: Joey Ramone and Marky Ramone
    http//dx.doi.org/10.15448/21778-3748.2019.1.32926 Trajetórias de vida em perspectiva histórica: Joey Ramone e Marky Ramone Life trajectories in historical perspective: Joey Ramone and Marky Ramone Fernando Mendes Coelho1 Resumo: este artigo tem como objetivo discutir alguns elementos que marcaram a geração de jovens norte-ame- ricanos dos anos 1960 e do início dos anos 1970, a qual, após o final da Segunda Guerra Mundial, experimentou um período de insatisfação política e social, que levou a inúmeras contestações frente aos comportamentos conservadores estabelecidos até então. Desta forma procuraremos, a partir da análise de alguns trechos de obras autobiográfica e biográfica dos músicos Marky Ramone e Joey Ramone, identificar como os jovens, an- tes de se tornarem astros do rock mundial, enfrentavam os dilemas políticos e culturais dos Estados Unidos, como a repulsa à Guerra do Vietnã, os atritos com a geração dos seus pais e a negação ao movimento hippie. Discutiremos que o surgimento da contracultura apresentou diversas vertentes e, que em contradição aos que apenas queriam paz e amor, havia nos subúrbios urbanos algo mais agressivo, que veio posteriormente a se estruturar como o movimento punk. Todos esses elementos perpassam as incertezas dos anos de juventude dos nossos personagens, que são o centro do objeto da pesquisa, e com a utilização de análises biográficas como fontes de pesquisa histórica, procuraremos explorar as possibilidades metodológicas deste campo teórico para consolidar a argumentação desta pesquisa. Palavras-chave: Contracultura. Punk rock. Juventude. Estados Unidos. Abstract: this article aims to discuss some elements that marked the generation of American youth of the 1960s and early 1970s, which, after the end of World War II, experienced a period of political and social discontent that led to numerous conservative behaviors ​​established so far.
