    ALTERNATIVE PERSPECTIVES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURE AND REPRESENTATION IN THE WORKS OF ISHMAEL REED A thesis submitted to the faculty of San Francisco State University In partial fulfillment of Zo\% The requirements for IMl The Degree Master of Arts In English: Literature by Jason Andrew Jackl San Francisco, California May 2018 Copyright by Jason Andrew Jackl 2018 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read Alternative Perspectives o f African American Culture and Representation in the Works o f Ishmael Reed by Jason Andrew Jackl, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Arts in English Literature at San Francisco State University. Geoffrey Grec/C Ph.D. Professor of English Sarita Cannon, Ph.D. Associate Professor of English ALTERNATIVE PERSPECTIVES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURE AND REPRESENTATION IN THE WORKS OF ISHMAEL REED Jason Andrew JackI San Francisco, California 2018 This thesis demonstrates the ways in which Ishmael Reed proposes incisive countemarratives to the hegemonic master narratives that perpetuate degrading misportrayals of Afro American culture in the historical record and mainstream news and entertainment media of the United States. Many critics and readers have responded reductively to Reed’s work by hastily dismissing his proposals, thereby disallowing thoughtful critical engagement with Reed’s views as put forth in his fiction and non­ fiction writing. The study that follows asserts that Reed’s corpus deserves more thoughtful critical and public recognition than it has received thus far. To that end, I argue that a critical re-exploration of his fiction and non-fiction writing would yield profound contributions to the ongoing national dialogue on race relations in America.

    Reporters Without Borders http://www.rsf.org/syria-number-of-citizen- journalists-01-06-2012,42715.html Middle East/North Africa - Syria News stream on Syria Number of citizen journalists killed and arrested rises daily 12 July 2012 12.07.2012 - Targeted murders of citizen journalists ﺑﺎﻟﻌﺮﺑﯿﺔ / Read in Arabic Reporters Without Borders is deeply saddened to learn of the murders of two more citizen journalists. Confirmation has also been received of the deaths of three others, of whom at least one lost his life in the course of journalistic activity. Suhaib Dib was the victim of a targeted killing by the security forces in the Damascus suburb of Al-Meliha on 4 July. Although still a secondary school student, he was one of the city’s most energetic activists, and was always circulating news reports and content about the uprising and the government crackdown. Omar Al-Ghantawi, 19, was killed by a sniper while filming the shelling of the districts of Jobar and Al-Sultaniyeh in Homs on 21 June. He had given up his job as a mobile phone technician in order to cover the revolution and had shot hundreds of photos and videos documenting the Assad regime’s atrocities. Ghantawi was previously shot and wounded in the chest by a sniper after tearing down a poster of the late President Hafez Al-Assad, the father of the current dictator, Bashar Al-Assad, in the district of Baba Amr. After being confined to bed for three months, he had resumed filming as soon as he recovered. Reporters Without Borders has been able to confirm that Ghias Khaled Al-Hmouria was shot dead while filming an operation by the rebel Free Syrian Army in the Damascus suburb of Douma on 25 June.

    20W Macm Picador Mothers Stories by Chris Power An extraordinary" ( The Sunday Times ) debut of unnerving beauty, Chris Power's short story collection Mothers evokes the magic and despair of the essential human longing for purpose. Chris Power's stories are peopled by men and women who find themselves at crossroads or dead ends - characters who search without knowing what they seek. Their paths lead them to thresholds, bridges, rivers, and sites of mysterious, irresistible connection to the past. A woman uses her mother's old travel guide, aged years beyond relevance, to navigate on a journey to nowhere; a stand-up comic with writer's block performs a fateful gig at a cocaine-fueled bachelor party; on holiday in Greece, a father must confront the limits to which he can keep his daughters safe. Braided throughout is the story of Eva, a daughter, wife, and mother, whose search for a self and place of belonging tracks a devastating path through generations. Ranging from remote English moors to an ancient Swedish burial ground to a hedonistic Mexican wedding, the stories in Mothers lay bare the emotional Picador and psychic damage of life, love, and abandonment.

  • Remembering America in the Writings of the Polish Participants of the University of Iowa International Writing Program: a Phenomenological Perspective
    University of Bucharest Review Vol. III/2013, no. 1 (new series) Cultures of Memory, Memories of Culture Janusz Kaźmierczak REMEMBERING AMERICA IN THE WRITINGS OF THE POLISH PARTICIPANTS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF IOWA INTERNATIONAL WRITING PROGRAM: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVE Keywords: memory; phenomenology; Edward C. Casey; United States of America in Polish literature; Polish culture; American culture; cross-cultural encounter Abstract: The International Writing Program, started at the University of Iowa by Paul Engle and Hualing Nieh in the 1960s, has to date brought to the USA over 1400 writers from all over the world. Some of these writers, on returning home, published accounts of their stay in America. Polish writers have been frequent participants of the International Writing Program since its inception; a number of them published written accounts of their encounter with the USA after their return to Poland. Some of these accounts appeared before, and some after the 1989 political transformation in Poland and in Central and Eastern Europe. This article reviews Edward S. Casey’s phenomenological approach to memory and uses it as a lens through which to look at the memories of the Polish writers’ sojourns in America, carried by the written accounts. It lays particular emphasis on the link between memory and place, which features prominently in Edward S. Casey’s approach and which is one of those aspects of it that may make it especially useful in the description, analysis and interpretation of the writers’ accounts of their stays in the USA. The aim of the article is to review the phenomenological approach to memory, as espoused by Edward S.

Possibly the latter is what enables our narrator to unflinchingly crave to throw acid at her flirty schoolmates, to fill her emptiness with total hatred. She is finally arrested, tortured, and liberated 7 years later. The narrator felt power, control and self-justification by I got "In Praise of Hatred" by Khaled Khalifa as an advance reading copy. No trivia or quizzes yet. Dutch rights were acquired by De Geus Restrictions eased when President Bashar al-Assad succeeded his father in About the hatred. Almost eerie in how prophetic this tale is, I might have liked this book a little better had it been crisper in its narration. In the novel, the narrator doesn't feel like she has control over her body. View 1 comment. This was a great book that made me seek out the actual history of this period on Wikipedia. The Book Sale will be open from 11am to 11pm every day, with the exception on weekends and holidays open 24 hours. Eerily plausible and the hatred seeping from the protagonist is tangible. There were too many characters for me to keep track of, and at times I wondered, why has he diverged to tell me the life story of this secondary character. As the siege of Aleppo begins, this sense of entrapment is heightened due to ever-present thoughts of death.
