Volume 79, No. 55B ©SS 2020 CONTINGENCY EDITION SUNDAY, JULY 5, 2020 stripes.com Free to Deployed Areas VIRUS OUTBREAK Governors put onus Complex, bloody bond for safety on public BY KIMBERLEE KRUESI Associated Press NASHVILLE, Tenn. — As Tennessee registered what then was its highest single-day coro- navirus case increase, Gov. Bill Lee held a news conference and issued a stern response. It wasn’t a mandate to wear masks in public or clamp down on businesses or social gatherings. Instead, it was a plea for residents to do the right thing. “When we have people dying in this state as a result of this virus, we should be taking personal re- sponsibility for this,” the Republi- can governor said. It was the same message Lee issued in late March as the COVID-19 disease was beginning to spread. He has vowed to stick to the personal responsibility mantra, with no plans to reinstate stay-at-home restrictions or im- pose statewide mandates — even as photos of unmasked people crowding bars and outdoor con- certs across Tennessee spread across social media. Instead, Lee signed an execu- tive order Friday that allows local officials to issue their own mask mandates if they want — as Nash- US, Russia share brutal history in Afghanistan ville and Memphis had already done.

    The Case of Rihanna: Erotic Violence and Black Female Desire

    Fleetwood_Fleetwood 8/15/2013 10:52 PM Page 419 Nicole R. Fleetwood The Case of Rihanna: Erotic Violence and Black Female Desire Note: This article was drafted prior to Rihanna and Chris Brown’s public reconciliation, though their rekindled romance supports many of the arguments outlined herein. Fig. 1: Cover of Esquire, November 2011 issue, U. S. Edition. Photograph by Russell James. he November 2011 issue of Esquire magazine declares Rihanna “the sexiest Twoman alive.” On the cover, Rihanna poses nude with one leg propped, blocking view of her breast and crotch. The entertainer stares out provocatively, with mouth slightly ajar. Seaweed clings to her glistening body. A small gun tattooed under her right arm directs attention to her partially revealed breast. Rihanna’s hands brace her body, and her nails dig into her skin. The feature article and accompanying photographs detail the hyperbolic hotness of the celebrity; Ross McCammon, the article’s author, acknowledges that the pop star’s presence renders him speechless and unable to keep his composure. Interwoven into anecdotes and narrative scenes explicating Rihanna’s desirability as a sexual subject are her statements of her sexual appetite and the pleasure that she finds in particular forms of sexual play that rehearse gendered power inequity and the titillation of pain. That Rihanna’s right arm is carefully positioned both to show the tattoo of the gun aimed at her breast, and that her fingers claw into her flesh, commingle sexual pleasure and pain, erotic desire and violence. Here and elsewhere, Rihanna employs her body as a stage for the exploration of modes of violence structured into hetero- sexual desire and practices.

    Crossroads Program and Exhibition Ideas

    Crossroads Program and Exhibition Ideas The following information will assist and inspire you in developing local exhibitions and public humanities programs to complement the themes of Crossroads: Change in Rural America. Summary of Exhibition Themes Crossroads addresses big ideas about a big subject – Rural America. Crossroads tells this story by exploring the source of rural identity and its perpetuation in literature, art, film, television and rhetoric. Different media, the hands of different artists, authors, and storytellers, convey the values they associate with rural people and their perceptions of rural places. Few people control the land and other resources that feed, clothe and house the majority of the U.S. population. Everyone has a stake in rural America because of the ways that the land, and the people who own and manage it contribute to the general health and welfare of all. Americans also have a vested interest in the land that individuals do not own. A 2017 report by the Congressional Research Service indicates that the U.S. government owns 28 percent of the total U.S. land mass of 2.27 billion acres. Four national land management agencies, plus the Department of Defense, manage these 640 million acres. Those agencies include the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Park Service, and the Forest Service. See “Federal Land Ownership: Overview and Data,” https://fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/R42346.pdf. Communities anchor local government, cultural institutions, businesses, transportation services, and rural society. Rural communities thrived during the 20th century but many now appear as mere shells of their former selves.

    Assyrians and the Turkey-PKK Conflict in Iraq Every Assyrian in Barwar Knows the Difference Between the Sound of Fighter Jets and the Sound of Civilian Planes.”

    Caught in the Crossfire: Assyrians and the Turkey-PKK Conflict in Iraq Every Assyrian in Barwar knows the difference between the sound of fighter jets and the sound of civilian planes.” Assyrian eyewitness interviewed by the Assyrian Policy Institute ABOUT ASSYRIANS An estimated 3.5 million people globally comprise a distinct, indigenous ethnic group. Tracing their heritage to ancient Assyria, Assyrians speak an ancient language referred to as Assyrian, Syriac, Aramaic, or Neo-Aramaic. The contiguous territory that forms the traditional Assyrian homeland includes parts of southern and south- eastern Turkey, northwestern Iran, northern Iraq, and northeastern Syria. The Assyrian population in Iraq, estimated at approximately 200,000, constitutes the largest remaining concentration of the ethnic group in the Middle East. The majority of these reside in their ancestral homeland located in the Nineveh Plain and within today’s Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Assyrians are predominantly Christian. Some ethnic Assyrians self-identify as Chaldeans or Syriacs, depending on church denomination. Assyrians have founded five Eastern Churches at different points during their long history: the Ancient Church of the East, the Assyrian Church of the East, the Chaldean Catholic Church, the Syriac Catholic Church, and the Syriac Orthodox Church. The majority of Assyrians who remain in Iraq today belong to the Chaldean and Syriac churches. Assyrians represent one of the most consistently persecuted communities in Iraq and the wider Middle East. ABOUT THE ASSYRIAN POLICY INSTITUTE Founded in May 2018, the Assyrian Policy Institute works to support Assyrians as they struggle to maintain their rights to the lands they have inhabited for thousands of years, their ancient language, equal opportunities in education and employment, and to full participation in public life.
