  • Killing in the Name of Struggle: Amiri Baraka's Revolutionary Theatre
    KILLING IN THE NAME OF STRUGGLE: AMIRI BARAKA’S REVOLUTIONARY THEATRE DOUGLAS KERN PhD THE UNIVERSITY OF YORK DEPARTMENT OF THEATRE, FILM AND TELEVISION JANUARY 2014 ABSTRACT This study explores representations of murder, killing, and death in the revolutionary drama of Amiri Baraka. After a brief Introduction, Chapter 1 serves as an introduction to Baraka’s birth as an activist and provides background regarding the U.S. racial climate in the 1960s as it relates to his activism. Moreover, it presents Baraka’s Black Arts Repertory Theatre School and how it helped establish the Black Arts Movement. Chapter 2 provides a detailed study of Dutchman, Baraka’s first success, to initiate an analysis of killing and murder within his plays. In addition, it examines The Slave and Slave Ship, which present revolutionary models whereby Black Power is sought, and in the case of Slave Ship achieved through the killing of whites. Chapter 3 offers a detailed look at Baraka’s move towards Third World Marxism. After categorically denouncing Nationalism, Baraka’s public embrace of Marxism in 1974 isolated him from the Black theatre he had helped establish. Case studies examine representations of Capitalist killers in What Was the Relationship of the Lone Ranger to the Means of Production? and Song. Chapter 4 begins with a brief introduction to Baraka’s activism in the early 1990s, along with details of his son’s tragic shooting, and culminates with in-depth analyses of Jack Pot Melting: A Commercial, The Election Machine Warehouse, and General Hag’s Skeezag, all published in the ‘90s and performed together for the Nuyorican Poets Café Theater in 1996.

This group (Margarite Esposito, Joe Munro, Caribel Washington, Luvinda Hunter, and others) disbanded around 1974, though it managed to collect a considerable amount of information on local African Americans. In 1977, Dr. Mildred Pratt of Illinois State University assigned one of her students (Janet McMath) to interview elderly African Americans in Peoria about their medical practices. Interest was considerable, and the project was expanded. Unaware of the group started by Marge Smith, Dr. Mildred Pratt and Dr. Stephanie Shaw, also of Illinois State University, began to collaborate on conducting interviews of elderly African Americans in Bloomington-Normal. Over time the group expanded; their goal was to compile an authentic history of African- Americans in McLean County since 1835 when Henry Clary and Rosanna Johnson reportedly settled in Bloomington. Greg Koos, director at the McLean County Museum of History, expressed interest in the project, and suggested seeking a grant from the Illinois Humanities Council, which was subsequently awarded to the group.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Victoria (Sunfire #13) by Willo Davis Roberts the Girl Sleuth and Other Stories
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Victoria (Sunfire #13) by Willo Davis Roberts the girl sleuth and other stories. Usually series like Sunfire are created by adult romance publishers who want to introduce young readers to the genre before they’re old enough to know better. A variation on the ol’ candy-flavored cigarette trick, basically. A later series in a similar vein, Avon True Romance, would make this explicit; books like Nicola and the Viscount and Tess and the Highlander introduced middle-grade readers to standard romance tropes like the Regency ton and kilt-clad Scots. Sunfire was launched by Scholastic, who only markets to children—remember those mail-order book club sheets you used to get in grade school?—so presumably hookin’ ‘em while they’re young to ensure future sales wasn’t one of their major priorities. Nevertheless, Sunfire shares plenty of common ground with adult historical romance, and it’s entirely unsurprising that many adult romance readers reference it as their introduction to the genre. The problem with using Sunfire as an intro to romance tropes and themes is that it’s a strictly American series, and historical romance is a genre that looks overseas more often than not. We lose our Regency dukes and our Scottish highlanders, British rogues and Medieval knights and those harem-owning sheiks. (For a middle-grade series, dropping that last one is probably for the best.) But Sunfire retains a number of the American- set romance novelist’s favorite devices: pirates and Southern belles, pioneers and Native Americans. There are other historical romance tropes, too, not limited to American ones: the widower learning to love again in Jessica and the cross-dressing heroine in Caroline .
