DEACON couldn't get here soon enough” - The FADER ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ “simply put, [‘Same Size Shoe’ is] some of the singer's best writing yet” - Billboard ​ “[‘Same Size Shoe’ is] tender, touching and all around terrific” - E! ​ “[‘Same Size Shoe’ is] airy and bright and full of light, with a confidence in his delivery and a bounciness that's infectious” - Stereogum ​ Today, Los Angeles-based artist serpentwithfeet is thrilled to reveal the official video for ​ ​ “Same Size Shoe,” the latest single from his forthcoming album, DEACON, out March 26th ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ on Secretly Canadian. A deeply heartwarming celebration in honor of Black History Month, ​ ​ ​ ​ the Shadae Lamar Smith and Rush Davis directed-video is an ode to serpent’s most fervent ​ ​ ​ ​ influences, from visionary writers and poets like Joseph Beam and Essex Hemphill, to the ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ performer Jonte’, to filmmakers Marlon Riggs and Patrik-Ian Polk and the casts of Tongues ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Untied and Noah’s Arc respectively. “Thank you to all the icons who remind me to be infinite,” ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ says serpent. Watch serpentwithfeet’s Video for “Same Size Shoe” For serpentwithfeet, DEACON is a study rather than a story delving into Black, gay love and ​ ​ the tenderness present in the best companionships, romantic or otherwise. The follow-up to his debut album, soil, one of 2018’s most praised albums of the year, DEACON highlights ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ serpent’s growth as a songwriter, embracing straightforward approaches to expression. The album came together after he relocated to Los Angeles, a city that provided a sense of tranquility, an aspect he pushed to capture in his new music. serpent proudly follows in the tradition of R&B artists whose gifts were helmed in the Black church. The album’s title takes its name from the Christian office, a figure who helps maintain order within the church and himself. Approaching DEACON with an undeniable passion and ​ ​ reverence for the genre, serpent made the deliberate decision to exclude songs about heartbreak. This was a bold act for R&B, a genre quite literally shaped by the harsh realities the blues provide. Ahead of the release of DEACON, serpent is a featured artist in Youtube’s inaugural Black ​ ​ ​ Voices campaign which spotlights Black creatives from around the world. ​ Stream “Same Size Shoe” Watch “Fellowship” Video Pre-order DEACON ​ Download cover art & hi-res images of serpentwithfeet (DEACON cover art by Braylen Dion) ​ ​ Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | Secretly Canadian ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For more information, contact: Patrick Tilley | Pitch Perfect PR – [email protected] ​ Sam McAllister | Pitch Perfect PR – [email protected], 651-528-3577 ​ ​ Ahmad Asani | Pitch Perfect PR – [email protected], 630-441-6522 ​ ​ ### .

  • The Complete Stories
    The Complete Stories by Franz Kafka a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at the end Back Cover : "An important book, valuable in itself and absolutely fascinating. The stories are dreamlike, allegorical, symbolic, parabolic, grotesque, ritualistic, nasty, lucent, extremely personal, ghoulishly detached, exquisitely comic. numinous and prophetic." -- New York Times "The Complete Stories is an encyclopedia of our insecurities and our brave attempts to oppose them." -- Anatole Broyard Franz Kafka wrote continuously and furiously throughout his short and intensely lived life, but only allowed a fraction of his work to be published during his lifetime. Shortly before his death at the age of forty, he instructed Max Brod, his friend and literary executor, to burn all his remaining works of fiction. Fortunately, Brod disobeyed. Page 1 The Complete Stories brings together all of Kafka's stories, from the classic tales such as "The Metamorphosis," "In the Penal Colony" and "The Hunger Artist" to less-known, shorter pieces and fragments Brod released after Kafka's death; with the exception of his three novels, the whole of Kafka's narrative work is included in this volume. The remarkable depth and breadth of his brilliant and probing imagination become even more evident when these stories are seen as a whole. This edition also features a fascinating introduction by John Updike, a chronology of Kafka's life, and a selected bibliography of critical writings about Kafka.

  • The Symbolic Rape of Representation: a Rhetorical Analysis of Black Musical Expression on Billboard's Hot 100 Charts
    THE SYMBOLIC RAPE OF REPRESENTATION: A RHETORICAL ANALYSIS OF BLACK MUSICAL EXPRESSION ON BILLBOARD'S HOT 100 CHARTS Richard Sheldon Koonce A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2006 Committee: John Makay, Advisor William Coggin Graduate Faculty Representative Lynda Dee Dixon Radhika Gajjala ii ABSTRACT John J. Makay, Advisor The purpose of this study is to use rhetorical criticism as a means of examining how Blacks are depicted in the lyrics of popular songs, particularly hip-hop music. This study provides a rhetorical analysis of 40 popular songs on Billboard’s Hot 100 Singles Charts from 1999 to 2006. The songs were selected from the Billboard charts, which were accessible to me as a paid subscriber of Napster. The rhetorical analysis of these songs will be bolstered through the use of Black feminist/critical theories. This study will extend previous research regarding the rhetoric of song. It also will identify some of the shared themes in music produced by Blacks, particularly the genre commonly referred to as hip-hop music. This analysis builds upon the idea that the majority of hip-hop music produced and performed by Black recording artists reinforces racial stereotypes, and thus, hegemony. The study supports the concept of which bell hooks (1981) frequently refers to as white supremacist capitalist patriarchy and what Hill-Collins (2000) refers to as the hegemonic domain. The analysis also provides a framework for analyzing the themes of popular songs across genres. The genres ultimately are viewed through the gaze of race and gender because Black male recording artists perform the majority of hip-hop songs.

The women whose stories have passed through the annuls of time to us are usually those of a higher ‘station’ or who broke the mould such as Boudicca, the six wives of Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, and Florence Nightingale.
