Herbert Lasky, director of the University Honors Program, said the idea, initiated by Eastern President David Jorns, of sending honors students to study in other countries has been discussed for a couple of years, and the only thing the honors program was waiting for was the approval from the CAA. “(Jorns) thought it would be a great opportunity for the students,” he said. “I have talked to other presidents and faculty members at other universities and all of them think this is a good idea,” Lasky said. “Some of the universities, such as Texas A&M and University of Utah, are interested in doing the program along with Eastern.” Students will be placed in countries where English is not the first language.

  • Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992
    Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 By Felicia Angeja Viator A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair Professor Scott Saul Fall 2012 Abstract Gangster Boogie: Los Angeles and the Rise of Gangsta Rap, 1965-1992 by Felicia Angeja Viator Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Leon F. Litwack, Co-Chair Professor Waldo E. Martin, Jr., Co-Chair “Gangster Boogie” details the early development of hip-hop music in Los Angeles, a city that, in the 1980s, the international press labeled the “murder capital of the U.S.” The rap music most associated with the region, coined “gangsta rap,” has been regarded by scholars, cultural critics, and audiences alike as a tabloid distortion of East Coast hip-hop. The dissertation shows that this uniquely provocative genre of hip-hop was forged by Los Angeles area youth as a tool for challenging civic authorities, asserting regional pride, and exploiting the nation’s growing fascination with the ghetto underworld. Those who fashioned themselves “gangsta rappers” harnessed what was markedly difficult about life in black Los Angeles from the early 1970s through the Reagan Era––rising unemployment, project living, crime, violence, drugs, gangs, and the ever-increasing problem of police harassment––to create what would become the benchmark for contemporary hip-hop music. My central argument is that this music, because of the social, political, and economic circumstances from which it emerged, became a vehicle for underclass empowerment during the Reagan Era.

    SORTIE NATIONALE 20 NOVEMBRE 2012 Contact Presse: Marc Chonier - [email protected] - 06 63 87 52 86 Edito Qui sait où commence et où finit le jazz? (Duke Ellington) Le jazz n’existe pas. Il n’y a que des preuves de jazz. Voici notre point de départ. Plutôt que de chercher une hypothétique essence du jazz, fixant des conditions (à rem- plir) et des limites (à ne pas dépasser), dessinant les frontières de ce qui est et n’est pas jazz, nous le cherchons là où il respire, là où il s’invente et se renouvelle, là où il se met en scène : dans les festivals. Uzeste, Banlieues Bleues, La Villlette, Paris Jazz Festival, Europa Jazz Festival, Cosmo Jazz, Sons d’Hiver, Martinique Jazz Festival, Porquerolles, ... la liste est ouverte. Chacun de ces festivals est comme un pays sur la planète jazz, construit son identité en creusant sa différence d’avec les autres festivals. Pris ensemble, ils dessinent un système ouvert où s’expriment en acte tous les sens du mot «jazz», toute l’actualité de son histoire diversi- fiée et plurilinéaire. Pour saisir ce qu’est le jazz aujourd’hui, il faut donc aller dans tout ces festivals ! Le coffret que vous tenez entre les mains est le résultat de deux années de voyages dans ces territoires du jazz, explorés caméra au poing par un collectif de réalisateurs : Frank Cassenti, Josselin Carré, Jacques Goldstein, Mélanie Golin, Jeremiah, David Unger, Audrey Lasbleiz,, Giuseppe de Vecchi... 9 visions différentes et un point commun : un regard à l’écoute. 10 films dans un itinéraire de 10 festivals - comme autant de portes d’entrées sur la pla- nète jazz - de Paris à Uzeste en passant par Chamonix, le Mans, Porquerolles ou Fort de France, 10 histoires de jazz avec plus de 220 musiciens, de 15 nationalités différentes.
