En primera instancia, presento la relevancia de la violencia en la serie y, para explicar el uso de la violencia por parte de algunos personajes, propongo a continuación un somero marco teórico inspirado en Pierre Bourdieu y en Slavoj Žižek: de Žižek tomo la distinción entre violencia subjetiva y objetiva (sistémica y simbólica), además de la metáfora del grado cero de la violencia, mientras que de Bourdieu utilizo el concepto de habitus para explicar la relación entre las acciones individuales y el contexto social. Con el objetivo de aplicar este marco teórico sobre la violencia en The Wire , comento el caso del agente Prez, y también el de algunos personajes vinculados al narcotráfico, entre los que distingo tres tipos generales: el soldado, el negociante y el outsider . Finalmente, tras analizar la violencia como habitus en estos personajes, concluyo con algunas reflexiones sobre el papel de la escuela en la reproducción de la sociedad y la relación entre la violencia y el sistema económico hegemónico. Palabras clave Violencia, habitus , teoría social, Bourdieu, Žižek. Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to analyse and comment the violence in the North American series The Wire (Simon and Burns, crs., 2002-2008).

  • The Black Image in the White Mind: Educational Consequences of Media Racism
    THE BLACK IMAGE IN THE WHITE MIND: EDUCATIONAL CONSEQUENCES OF MEDIA RACISM Sheldon A. Lanier A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Education in the School of Education. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Kathleen Brown Dana Thompson-Dorsey Misti Williams © 2017 Sheldon A. Lanier ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Sheldon A. Lanier: The Black Image in the White Mind: Educational Consequences of Media Racism (Under the direction of Kathleen Brown) In the United States of America, Black male students often face a cultural disconnect when entering classrooms today. As a result, outcomes for these students, including academic ones, are both alarming and reprehensible. It is conceivable that a link exists between the exposure to negative racial portrayals of Black males in the media, teachers’ perceptions of their Black male students, and the negative treatments of Black males that result. These perceptions are important when examining how they can affect school policies and practices institutionally. Given the multitude of structures that help shape the negative outcomes of Black males in this country, mixed methods on both quantitative and qualitative inquiry were used to explore and examine the following questions: 1) How are Black males portrayed in the HBO original series, The Wire? 2) Do these portrayals reify (or, not) stereotypes of Black males in the United States? 3) How might these portrayals cultivate White female teachers’ perceptions and subsequent treatment of Black male students? The Wire was used as the media content sample due to the vast amount of Black male actors in lead or prominent recurring roles.

Collins November 2011 © 2011 Dustin L. Collins. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled Crossin’ Somebody’s Line: Gay Black Men in HBO Serial Dramas by DUSTIN L. COLLINS has been approved for the School of Film and the College of Fine Arts by Louis-Georges Schwartz Assistant Professor of Film Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT COLLINS, DUSTIN L., M.A., November 2011, Film Scholarship Crossin’ Somebody’s Line: Gay Black Men in HBO Serial Dramas Director of Thesis: Louis-Georges Schwartz This thesis examines the roles of gay black men in three HBO programs: Six Feet Under, The Wire, and True Blood. Whereas such characters have always been stereotyped and ridiculed in the past, HBO has made strides forward thanks to its commitment to being on the cutting edge of narrative television. Drawing on Jasbir Puar’s Terrorist Assemblages, the thesis argues that Omar Little of The Wire, and to a lesser extent Lafayette Reynolds of True Blood, add new dimensions of representation by presenting their queerness as an assemblage of diverse factors, rather than an intersection of discrete categories. Keith Charles of Six Feet Under is presented as a counterexample—a positive representation, but safer and less groundbreaking than those who came after.

    DEALING WITH DRUGS: GENDER, GENRE, AND SERIALITY IN THE WIRE AND WEEDS By AMY LONG A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2008 1 © 2008 Amy Long 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like especially to thank my director, Trysh Travis, for her guidance, encouragement, and support throughout the writing process and my time at the University of Florida as a whole. Additionally, my committee members, Florence Babb and Joseph Spillane, deserve thanks for their participation in the project and particularly for, respectively, allowing me to work out some of the ideas presented here in here in her seminar fall 2007, Sex Love & Globalization, and providing me with useful reference materials and guidance. I would also like to thank LaMonda Horton Stallings for giving me the opportunity to develop substantial portions of my chapter on The Wire in her fall 2007 seminar, Theoretical Approaches to Black Popular Culture. In her spring 2008 seminar, History of Masculinities, Louise Newman also provided me with valuable theoretical resources, particularly with regard to the thesis’ first chapter. Mallory Szymanski, my Women’s Studies colleague, deserves acknowledgement for her role in making the last two years enjoyable and productive, particularly during the thesis writing process. I would also like to thank my parents for their support in all my endeavors. Lastly, my sisters, Beverly and Cassie Long, and friends who are too numerous to name (but know who they are) deserve special acknowledgment for giving me much needed diversions and generally putting up with me during this busy time.

"Likely 'cause we been dropping bodies," explains Charles. He also tells Avon that Marlo — following Barksdale's attempted hit on it — has closed up shop and is working as a drug wholesaler instead a retailer. Barksdale is amazed at Marlo's hasty retreat: "An' I was just beginning to respect the motherfucker for showin' heart." Herc, on duty in the free zone, is amazed when he spots Avon Barksdale, riding by in an SUV. Cutty, foreswearing the gangster life, has gone back to work with the yard crew and his eagerness to do a good job impresses his supervisor. "You walked through them old doors, didn't you," he asks Cutty. "Tried to," Cutty admits, and then confides in him that things haven't been going so well. At the Detail Office, Lt. Daniels summons his crew, and informs them they're no longer pursuing Kintel Williamson. McNulty and Greggs share a guilty look when Daniels announces that their new targets are Stringer Bell and Marlo Stanfield.

Fast forward to the postindustrial economic conditions of the twenty-! rst-century inner city and this foundational intersection ! nds an extraordinary consistency with the lack of economic opportunity available to generations of inner-city youth who are (through various media) exposed to many of the most desirable outposts of capitalist society, and the corollary to this desire-producing exposure: an utter absence of the structural and civic resources necessary to transcend abject poverty. e spectacle of this society notwithstanding, various verbal and visual discourses generated in popular media seek to con- struct original models of masculinity for these generational constituents. In this chapter I engage emerging theoretical conceptions of black mas- culinity (à la Mark Anthony Neal and others) and juxtapose these ideas with several speci! c constructions of black masculinity articulated and visualized and exempli! ed through the characters of e Wire. Of signi! cance to this discussion is a collaboration between the rapper Common and the Last Poets, aptly entitled, “ e Corner,” which bril- liantly articulates the urban corner as a master site for the both the 107 TTPotter_07_Rev.inddPotter_07_Rev.indd 110707 66/5/2009/5/2009 99:40:08:40:08 AAMM 108 THE WIRE: URBAN DECAY AND AMERICAN TELEVISION production and representations of black masculinity.
