  • Glitter Bombing: Weapon of Choice for Gay Rights, Pro Choice Advocates

    Glitter Bombing: Weapon of Choice for Gay Rights, Pro Choice Advocates

    Glitter Bombing: Weapon of Choice for Gay Rights, Pro Choice Advocates Glitter bombing is a relatively recent phenomenon and has been adopted as a form of protest, particularly (but not exclusively) by gay rights activists and supporters. Glitter bombing is readily accessible via Ruin Days (www.ruindays.com), an online business that offers a variety of glitter bomb options, including envelopes and spring-loaded tubes. A spring-loaded glitter bomb tube can be purchased anonymously for $22.99, and Ruin Days will ship directly to the intended recipient. Ruin Days posts the following caveat: “Your billing information and email will appear nowhere on the package.” Although glitter bombing as an offense has yet to be codified, some legal officials argue glitter bombing is technically an assault and battery. The glitter bombing of public officials rose to prominence in 2011, when Newt Gingrich, Tim Pawlenty, Michele Bachmann, Karl Rove and Erik Paulson were all similarly glitter bombed. The common denominator among these political figures is a conservative orientation and opposition to gay rights, especially marriage equality. Recipients in Glitter bomb mailing tube (per open source) 2012 included Rick Santorum (on four separate occasions), Mitt Romney and Ron Paul. Mitt Romney’s bomber, a University of Colorado student, faced up to six months in jail and a fine of $1000. Glitter bombing was featured in the Season 3 premiere of Glee on September 20, 2011. Nebraska Congressman Jeff Fortenberry was glitter bombed on March 4, 2015, at his office in Lincoln. Fortenberry, a Republican Representative endorsed by Nebraska Right to Life, was targeted by a pro-choice group who included a note.

    Revolutionary Games and Repressive Tolerance: on the Hopes and Limits of Ludic Citizenship

    http://dx.doi.org/10.7592/EJHR2015.3.2.3.shepard European Journal of Humour Research 3 (2/3) 18–34 www.europeanjournalofhumour.org Revolutionary Games and repressive tolerance: on the hopes and limits of ludic citizenship Benjamin Shepard Human Services Dept., City University of New York [email protected] Abstract This essay considers examples of boisterous game play, including ludic movement activity and humour in the context of the Occupy Wall Street movement in the USA. This form of auto- ethnography makes use of the researcher’s feelings, inviting readers into the personal, emotional subjectivities of the author. In this case, the author explores games, play, and humour highlighting a few of the possibilities and limits of play as a mechanism of social change, looking at the spaces in which it controls and when it liberates. While play has often been relegated to the sports field and the behaviour of children, there are other ways of opening spaces for play for civic purposes and political mobilization. The paper suggests play as a resource for social movements; it adds life and joyousness to the process of social change. Without playful humour, the possibilities for social change are limited. Keywords: play, Occupy Wall Street, Marx, Burning Man, pie fights. 1. Introduction Art and activism overlap in countless ways throughout the history of art and social movements. This essay considers the ways games, humour and play intervene and support the process. Here, social reality is imagined as a game, in which social actors play in irreverent, often humorous ways. Such activity has multiple meanings.

    A Multi-method Examination of Race, Class, Gender, Sexual Orientation, and Motivations for Participation in the YouTube-based “It Gets Better Project” Laurie Marie Phillips A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Daniel Riffe Daren Brabham Barbara Friedman George Noblit Terri Phoenix © 2013 Laurie Marie Phillips ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT LAURIE MARIE PHILLIPS: A Multi-method Examination of Race, Class, Gender, Sexual Orientation, and Motivations for Participation in the YouTube-based “It Gets Better Project” (Under the direction of Dr. Daniel Riffe) On September 15, 2010, Dan Savage and Terry Miller created a YouTube channel that turned into a global phenomenon: the “It Gets Better Project” (IGBP). This multi-method study employs: 1) Multimodal Critical Discourse Analysis (MCDA) to examine race, class, gender, and sexual orientation within IGBP videos; and 2) video chat-based in-depth interviews for determining participants’ motivations for IGBP participation and production of crowdsourced, social media-based strategic communication. Using sociologist Patricia Hill Collins’ “matrix of domination” as a theoretical framework for understanding structural, disciplinary, hegemonic, and interpersonal oppressions that led to the IGBP’s creation, video production, and video content, this empirical study draws from a sample of 21 videos and 20 interviews. MCDA findings reveal that participants presented a pared-back version of their own racial, class, gender, and sexual identities; projected their identities onto viewers; and created and perpetuated myths through their video narratives.

    Strategic Public Relations Comp Exam Research Paper Student ID: 6860-0435-05 4/4/2018 I. Background ABC Network ABC’s history begins in 1926 when the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) was founded to establish a radio broadcasting network nationwide. Due to NBC’s surplus of affiliates, it divided its programming into two, the “Red” and the “Blue” networks. NBC sold its less profitable network (Blue) to Edward J. Noble in 1941 after the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) announced companies could only have one radio network. Noble initially renamed the blue network the American Broadcasting System before changing it to the American Broadcasting Company, Inc. (ABC). In 1948, ABC began focusing on television but was unsuccessful until United Paramount Theatres (UPT) bought it in 1953. The merger financially helped ABC but not well enough to compete with the live programming of the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) and NBC. In 1986, Capital Cities Broadcasting acquired ABC1 and then in 1996 Disney merged with Capital Cities/ABC.2 ABC Television Network currently features many shows in the category of drama, comedy, reality, daytime talk shows, late-night talk shows and news programming. Their big hits include “Modern Family,” “How to Get Away with Murder,” “Dancing with the Stars,” “The Bachelor/Bachelorette,” “General Hospital,” “The View,” “The Chew,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and many more.
