  • Objectivity, Interdisciplinary Methodology, and Shared Authority
    ABSTRACT HISTORY TATE. RACHANICE CANDY PATRICE B.A. EMORY UNIVERSITY, 1987 M.P.A. GEORGIA STATE UNIVERSITY, 1990 M.A. UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN- MILWAUKEE, 1995 “OUR ART ITSELF WAS OUR ACTIVISM”: ATLANTA’S NEIGHBORHOOD ARTS CENTER, 1975-1990 Committee Chair: Richard Allen Morton. Ph.D. Dissertation dated May 2012 This cultural history study examined Atlanta’s Neighborhood Arts Center (NAC), which existed from 1975 to 1990, as an example of black cultural politics in the South. As a Black Arts Movement (BAM) institution, this regional expression has been missing from academic discussions of the period. The study investigated the multidisciplinary programming that was created to fulfill its motto of “Art for People’s Sake.” The five themes developed from the program research included: 1) the NAC represented the juxtaposition between the individual and the community, local and national; 2) the NAC reached out and extended the arts to the masses, rather than just focusing on the black middle class and white supporters; 3) the NAC was distinctive in space and location; 4) the NAC seemed to provide more opportunities for women artists than traditional BAM organizations; and 5) the NAC had a specific mission to elevate the social and political consciousness of black people. In addition to placing the Neighborhood Arts Center among the regional branches of the BAM family tree, using the programmatic findings, this research analyzed three themes found to be present in the black cultural politics of Atlanta which made for the center’s unique grassroots contributions to the movement. The themes centered on a history of politics, racial issues, and class dynamics.

    ENG 350: THE HISTORY OF HIP-HOP With your host, Dr. Russell A. Potter, a.k.a. Professa RAp Monday - Thursday, 6:30-8:30, Craig-Lee 252 http://350hiphop.blogspot.com/ In its rise to the top of the American popular music scene, Hip-hop has taken on all comers, and issued beatdown after beatdown. Yet how many of its fans today know the origins of the music? Sure, people might have heard something of Afrika Bambaataa or Grandmaster Flash, but how about the Last Poets or Grandmaster CAZ? For this class, we’ve booked a ride on the wayback machine which will take us all the way back to Hip-hop’s precursors, including the Blues, Calypso, Ska, and West African griots. From there, we’ll trace its roots and routes through the ‘parties in the park’ in the late 1970’s, the emergence of political Hip-hop with Public Enemy and KRS-One, the turn towards “gangsta” style in the 1990’s, and on into the current pantheon of rappers. Along the way, we’ll take a closer look at the essential elements of Hip-hop culture, including Breaking (breakdancing), Writing (graffiti), and Rapping, with a special look at the past and future of turntablism and digital sampling. Our two required textbook are Bradley and DuBois’s Anthology of Rap (Yale University Press) and Neal and Forman’s That's the Joint: The Hip-Hop Studies Reader are both available at the RIC campus store. Films shown in part or in whole will include Bamboozled, Style Wars, The Freshest Kids: A History of the B-Boy, Wild Style, and Zebrahead; there will is also a course blog with a discussion board and a wide array of links to audio and text resources at http://350hiphop.blogspot.com/ WRITTEN WORK: An informal response to our readings and listenings is due each week on the blog.

  • James Brown Is Alive!
    James Brown Is Alive! Matt Stauffer [=\ [=\ [=\ WRITER’S COMMENT: On the first day of class Seth asked us what kind of music we like. I’ve always been a huge James Brown fan (anyone who can list what he had for dinner and call it a song is all right by me). That he had recently died helped me decide that I would find some way to write about him. But explaining his importance to poetry and orality was difficult. It was a case of knowing James Brown is an important figure, but not knowing how to explain it. The solution was simply to listen to music, and hear James Brown’s influence, and hear what his influences were. People like Cab Calloway, Ella Fitzgerald, Wilson Pickett, Heavy D and a bunch of others came up, and from there it was just a matter of searching out the right information to help connect those dots. Also, I’m a big fan of the word “eschew.” —Matt Stauffer INSTRUCTOR’S COMMENT: My most immediate reaction to Matt Stauffer’s work in this essay was admiration for his ability to bridge disciplines, bringing together African American history, musicology, literary history, and close reading. As his instructor for English 4, I can see the way he integrates his reading in sound poetry and the theories of Walter Ong and Roland Barthes with his long-standing interest in funk, soul and hip-hop, the truly popular poetries of our era since the 1960s. His willingness to take seriously the ‘get back’-s and ‘hit me’-s of James Brown—sounds we usually hear but do not listen to—indeed enlivens our experience of the Godfather of Soul.

David Diallo 1 Dans Blues People, un ouvrage publié en 1963, l’écrivain et essayiste LeRoi Jones souligne les indéterminations que cette musique suscite régulièrement. Il écrit : “It is impossible to say simply, « Slavery created blues », and be done with it-or at least it seems almost impossible to make such a statement and sound intelligent saying it.” (Jones 1963, p.50). Ce commentaire, s’il fut formulé pour rétablir certaines interprétations réductrices concernant le blues, vaut également pour quelques-unes des descriptions exprimées de nos jours au sujet de la musique rap. Tout comme ceux qui ont réduit le blues à un simple produit de l’esclavage où qui en ont fait une « musique du diable » (Pearson and McCulloch 2003), nombreux sont les auteurs de travaux sur la musique rap qui ont fréquemment réduit cette musique à une simple expression de résistance engendrée par l’oppression structurelle subie par une partie la communauté noire.

  • 23 Teaching on the Level: the Poetics of Rap Kirsten Bartholomew
    Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Winter 2008 (2:1) Teaching On the Level: The Poetics of Rap Kirsten Bartholomew Ortega, University of Colorado at Colorado Springs Academic attention to rap music and hip-hop culture has come a long way from Richard Shusterman's 1991 opening claim in a New Literary History article that, "in the view of both the culturally elite and the so-called general public, rap music lurks in the underworld of aesthetic respectability."1 Wonderful intellectual work has been published in the last two decades which defends the cultural value of hip-hop and rap music (e.g., work by Michael Eric Dyson), which provides a history of hip-hop as a movement and developments in rap music (e.g., Tricia Rose's book Black Noise ), and which increasingly interrogates the nuances, problems, and complexities of hip-hop and rap (e.g., Gwendolyn D. Pough's scholarship of and editing of work about women and hip-hop). These kinds of cultural studies projects have been essential to maintaining a productive intellectual discussion about rap, but I have yet to see specific discussions of how to bring rap lyrics into the classroom from a deeply literary perspective. In the last decade that I have been teaching poetry—first at the secondary level and now at the undergraduate level—I have heard repeated affirmation of the belief that rap lyrics are a respectable form of poetry that can be taught in the classroom. Teachers, especially at the secondary level, are paying more attention to the ways that rap lyrics offer a potential to reach students who would otherwise be turned off by poetry, to refute the kind of claim made famous in 1991 by Dana Gioia that poetry is dead, 2 to examine a distinctly African-American form of poetics, and to keep lessons tuned-in to students' popular culture knowledges.

  • Abstract One Love: Collective Consciousness in Rap and Poetry
    Abstract One Love: Collective Consciousness in Rap and Poetry of the Hip-Hop Generation by Austin Harold Hart April, 2012 Thesis Director: John Hoppenthaler Major Department: English (Literature and Poetry) This study aims to offer an understanding of hip-hop culture through which three concepts are elucidated: (1) the existence and dimensions of a collective consciousness within rap and poetry of the hip-hop generation (Allison Joseph, A. Van Jordan, Terrance Hayes, Major Jackson, Taylor Mali, and Kevin Coval); (2) a poetics of rap—to parallel the influence seen/suggested among the selected poets; and (3) an analysis of the manner(s) in which the poetry of these more serious, academic artists reflects an influence of hip-hop culture. My thesis suggests that these poets are indeed influenced by the culture in which they grew up, and in their verse, this influence can be seen through linguistic playfulness, sonic density, layered meaning and usage through form and content, and the connection to a larger cultural, collective consciousness fed by specific social bodies. Poetic analysis, as well as studies of vernacular and oral traditions, has allowed me to explore these concepts and theories from a wider spectrum, and with regard to the work of the poets, an original perspective. Providing a deeper understanding of artists, their identities, places, and dreams within their work, this study begins to offer some insight into notions of the ways in which individuals might participate in cultural conservation.

Pamela Jean Bettis, Ph.D., Chair Paula Groves Price, Ph.D. John Joseph Lupinacci, Ph.D. Anthony Gordon Rud Jr., Ph.D. Francene T. Watson, Ph.D. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENT This project has truly been a labor of love, as it takes a village to write a dissertation. I would first like to thank my parents. Without them, none of this would be possible. I would like to thank my dad, Cleveland Gilmore for inviting me into the Black Study through jazz. It is through jazz, I developed the identity of being an Edtiste. I would like to thank my mom, Rosita Faulkner, for showing me how to refuse and what mundane refusal looks like as a daily practice. It was her refusal that helped guide me away from doing traditional social science research. How dope is it to say that your parents made the dissertation? Very dope! While the academy might recognize and acknowledge me as the first Ph.D. in my family, my mom and dad will always be the first doctors in my eyes.
