  • Application Packet Woodlandscamp.Org/Apply
    SUMMER STAFF APPLICATION PACKET WOODLANDSCAMP.ORG/APPLY IT’S FOR THE KING. A NOTE FROM BIG JON MISSION, VISION, & VALUES Dear Prospective Staffer, Do you want your summer to count for something? Do you want to invest a season of your life in a cause bigger than yourself? Do you want to live in incredible Christian community? Do you want to grow spiritually and develop as a leader? Do you want to have the most impactful, unforgettable summer of your life? Then we want you! If I may, let me speak first to your fears. In my experience, two key fears often keep students like you from giving a summer or two of their college career to the Lord. The first is a fear of the unknown. You (like many of your peers) may be thinking, I’d love to work at camp, but… I’ve got a school bill to pay…or I should probably take summer classes…or I need to think about my career…or I have a boyfriend/girlfriend back home. While those things may be true, focusing on temporal (albeit important) unknowns can keep you from being and doing all that God has planned for you. The second is a fear of missing out. There are likely several months still before summer, meaning it’s tempting to think about the potential that a “better opportunity” might arise. If God leads you to apply at Woodlands, do it and don’t look back. As my friend Shaunti Feldhan says, “Keeping your options open leads to anxiousness because you are worrying about the what-ifs or ‘What am I missing?’ You’re unsettled.

  • ''Moments of Clarity''and Sounds of Resistance: Veiled Literary
    “Moments of Clarity” and Sounds of Resistance: Veiled Literary Subversions and De-Colonial Dialectics in the Art of Jay Z and Kanye West A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of English Language and Comparative Literatures of the College of Arts and Sciences by Sha’Dawn D. Battle B.A., Central State University 2007 M.A., Wright State University 2009 November 2016 Committee Chair: Sharon Dean, PH.D. Abstract “‘Moments of Clarity’ and Sounds of Resistance: Veiled Literary Subversions and De- Colonial Dialectics in the Art of Jay Z and Kanye West” employs rap music as an object of inquiry into the question of contemporary manifestations of anti-Black oppression, demonstrating the ways in which the art of rappers Jay Z and Kanye West in particular, covertly elucidates the conditions and discursive and ideological mechanisms of power that make possible the exploitation, repression, and destruction of Black bodies in America. In the first two chapters, I argue that this illuminative potential is, in part, what attributes to the political utility of mainstream rap music. My first goal is therefore to make apparent mainstream rap music’s rightful place in Black liberation politics given its ability to unveil the functionality of age-old Eurocentric, white supremacist paradigms, such as rendering Black bodies incorrigibly animal, denying Black bodies access to subjectivity, or negating Black ontology. These ideologies give rise to exclusionary monolithic constructions of what it means to be human, pathological constructions of “blackness,” Black masculinity especially, and subsequently, the arbitrary conferral of power (to both state apparatuses and individuals racially coded as “superior”), which manifests in the form of systematic and institutional racism, and ultimately, Black male disembodiment.
