  • 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.

The Society's manuscript holdings at that time were estimated to be 2,500,000 items, contained in 1,141 listed collections. Within the last decade, these holdings have increased approximately 60%, so that now some 4,000,000 items are to be found in 1,609 collec- tions. Furthermore, whereas in 1940 only 30% of the manuscripts were arranged for ready use by students, today 98% are so arranged. During the past ten years, we have also made every effort to improve the manuscript catalogue which has grown from 200,000 to 500,000 cards. In spite of this tremendous increase, the number of items covered by each card has been reduced from 12.5 in 1940 to 8.0 at present. This represents real progress, but much work remains to be done. Excluding our holdings of foreign manuscripts, which number some 200,000 items of considerable importance, our collections deal primarily with Philadelphia and Pennsylvania.
