  • The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.

  • The Ocean Sunburst Treachery
    The Ocean Sunburst Treachery 1 Waikiki Beach, Hawaii, January 20th Waikiki Beach resort was destroyed at five forty-four in the morning. Christopher Wyatt ran along the beach, bare feet pounding into the warming sand, to- wards Diamond Head. He was wearing a garish Hawaiian shirt that would make Linda laugh when she called. The sky was becoming lighter, the rising sun radiating vast streaks of pale red and purple through wispy clouds and outshining the few remaining visible stars. The range of tall square hotels loomed against the burgeoning dawn, windows speckling with electric lights. The breeze was light and cool, the sea restless, long rolling waves topped with white spume rushing up the sand to gradually stop and retreat like frightened creatures. Wyatt expected to be alone on the beach at this early hour but he was surprised by the number of people jogging, sightseeing, surfing and fishing off the rocks. Wyatt enjoyed the sensation of sweat rolling down his back. He was in good shape, his work was near comple- tion, and he was in love. He was excited about Linda’s call and was not sure whether his heart was racing hard from the exercise or with the anticipation of seeing her face again, albeit on the screen of a cell phone. Linda Marquez called as Wyatt reached the foot of Diamond Head. Wyatt smiled as Linda’s face appeared on screen. ‘Wow,’ Linda said. ‘Can this be my husband, up this early? It’s a quarter after ten here in Washington so it must be real early there.’ Wyatt sat down on a grassy tuft of sand below Diamond Head Road.
