    20 years of the gathering of the juggalos... On this momentous occasion, we Gather together not just to celebrate the 20th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos, but to uphold the legacy of our Juggalo Family. For two decades strong, we have converged at the height of the summer season for something so much more than the concerts, the lights, the sounds, the revelry, and the circus. There is no mistaking that the Gathering is the Greatest Show on Earth and has rightfully earned the title as the longest running independent rap festival on this or any other known planet. And while all these accolades are well-deserved and a point of pride, in our hearts we know...There is so much more to this. A greater reason and purpose. A magic that calls us together. That knowing. The spirit of the tribe. The call of the Dark Carnival. The magic mists that float by as we gaze through the trees into starry skies. We are together. And THAT is what we celebrate here, after 20 long, fresh, hilarious, incredible, tremendously karma-filled years. We call this the Soopa Gathering because we are here to celebrate the superpowers of the Juggalo Family. All of us here together and united are capable of heroics and strength beyond measure. We are Soopa. We are mighty. For we have found each other by the magic of the Carnival—standing 20 years strong on the Dirtball as we see into the eternity of Shangri-La. Finding Forever together, may the Dark Carnival empower and ignite the Hero in you ALL..

    Advances in Social Sciences Research Journal – Vol.1, No.2 Publication Date: March 09, 2014 DOI: 10.14738/assrj.12.94 Halnon, K. B. (2014).

In January 2014, ICP and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) sued the FBI in Detroit Federal Court. Toward a timely corrective sociological account, this PaPer offers its findings derived from over ten years of concert fieldwork observation, hundreds of informal interviews, and in-depth (DVD, CD, band, and fan site) music media analysis. It provides a marginal insider-outsider account of ICP’s Dark Carnival, focused on its rituals, traditions, and mythology that create a Proto-utopian surrogate family of accePtance and belonging, identity reversal, and ethical guidance for many who have suffered from unpoPularity, abuse, other familial dysfunction, and/or who do not fit in where they are. Utilizing Bakhtinian carnival concePts, thick descriPtion and abundant quotation, the Paper exemPlifies sociology’s debunking quality, or the sociological axiom that things are often quite different than Presumed. The PaPer concludes by underscoring the troubling dangers of criminalization. Keywords: Carnival, Unpopularity, Rituals, Criminal Profiling, Sociological DeBunKing, BaKhtin, Surrogate Family. DARK CARNIVAL AND JUGGALO HEAVEN “They uncrowned and renewed the estaBlished power and unofficial truth.

" # $ %&"&' )&*+,,-$ '&* './&" Number Twelve fall 2011 The Shaltzes, The Juggalo IX‚, 2010, archival inkjet print, 24 × 36". American Juggalo Kent Russell ’d been driving for seventeen hours, much of it on two-lane I highways through Indiana and then southern Illinois. Red-green corn sidled closer to the road until it stooped over both shoulders. That early in the morning, a mist was tiding in the east. I figured I had to be close. A couple of times I turned off the state road to drive past family plots where the houses were white, right-angled ideals. On many of these plots were incongruous strips of grass—home- spun cemeteries. I wondered what it would be like to grow up in a place like this. Your livelihood would surround you, waving hello every time the wind picked up. You wouldn’t be able to see your neighbors, but you’d for sure know who they were. You’d go to one of the Protestant churches seeded in the corn, take off your Sunday best to shoot hoops over the garage, and drink an after-dinner beer on your porch swing, certain of your regular Americanness. And one day you’d get buried feet from where you lived, worked, and died. Doubt about the trip unfurled inside me as the odometer crawled on. I couldn’t have told you why I was doing this. Back on IL-1 I looked to my right and saw an upside-down SUV in the corn.

  • Opinion and Order Granting Defendants' Motion to Dismiss
    UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION MARK PARSONS, et. al., Plaintiffs, v. Case No. 14-10071 UNITED STATES DEPT. OF JUSTICE, et. al., Defendants. / OPINION AND ORDER GRANTING DEFENDANTS’ MOTION TO DISMISS Now before the court is a Motion to Dismiss filed by Defendants United States Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (“FBI”). (Dkt. # 37.) The matter is fully briefed, and the court finds that a hearing is unnecessary. See E.D. LR 7.1(f)(2). For the reasons discussed below, the court will grant Defendants’ Motion. I. BACKGROUND As alleged in the complaint, “Juggalos” are “fans of the musical group Insane Clown Posse (“ICP”)[1] and other bands on ICP’s independent record label, Psychopathic Records.” (Dkt. # 1, Pg. ID 2.) ICP’s music is generally referred to as “horrorcore hip hop” which “uses very harsh language to tell nightmare-like stories . .” (Id.) Juggalos often paint their faces to look like clowns, and wear distinctive symbols, including the “hatchetman” logo, which depicts a person with wild hair wielding a butcher’s meat cleaver. (Id.) The complaint alleges that “[m]any Juggalos embrace ‘Juggaloism’ as a philosophy, an identity, [and] a way of life. ICP’s lyrics, through their description of a ‘Dark Carnival,’ address themes of good and evil, heaven and hell, and acceptance and tolerance of others.” (Id. at Pg. ID 6.) These Juggalos observe “the moral code” of the Carnival, and see themselves as social outcasts, seeking support from one another. (Id. at Pg. ID 7.) “Based on these shared values, Juggalos strongly identify with one another and often refer to themselves as a ‘family.’” (Id.) According to Plaintiffs, Juggalos gather to listen to ICP’s performances, share ideas expressed in the ICP performances, and express their support for the band.

    Everything You Never Wanted to Know About the Juggalos 1 Everything You Never Wanted to Know About the Juggalos Deputy Christopher N. Pratt Gang/Intelligence Unit November 22, 2010 Everything You Never Wanted to Know About the Juggalos 2 During my short time on the Sheriff Department’s Gang/Intelligence Unit one group seems to keep randomly popping up and catching my attention as I conduct various searches, member contacts, and so on. This group is comprised of fanatical followers of the rap group known as the Insane Clown Posse (ICP). On the streets they call themselves the Juggalos. Since the Juggalos keep randomly appearing and catching my attention, I felt the need to give them some measure of attention in attempts to try and teach myself more about them. I haven’t been able to find a significant source of collected data on the Juggalos, but what I did find were several chopped up pieces of information scattered throughout the web. I decided to put together some basic information to help other officers learn more about them. This is by no means an exhaustive narrative of the Juggalos, and I have done my best to provide an accurate list of references at the end of this document to verify the information I am providing. Basic History The rap group known as ICP was founded in the late 1980’s; however, the term “Juggalo” was first used in a concert in 1994 when ICP founders Joseph Bruce (aka Violent J) and Joseph Utsler (aka Shaggy 2 Dope) addressed their fans and followers as part of their Juggalo family.
