During the past two decades the number of public-sector folklorists has grown significantly. Many government and private agencies have found occa­ sion to hire folklorists for work on temporary or permanent programs. Folklorists in these agencies have ex­ pressed the need for a federal-wide job classification for folklorists as a stan­ dard to which they can refer, or at least for information about the specific job descriptions actually used now by individual federal agencies. Unfortunately, the number of folk­ lorists employed by the federal govern­ ment, and the number of federal agencies in which folklorists work, have been too small to justify a federal­ wide job classification. Although the Center has been told that an argument to the contrary will be difficult and time-consuming to make, it is taking up this matter with the OPM to see where it leads. In the meantime, we have sent the job descriptions we have recently used for folklife specialists, along with a statement of our policies and procedures regarding the employ­ ment of contract fieldworkers, to aca­ demic and public folklore programs throughout the country.

  • Fair Use As Cultural Appropriation

    Fair Use As Cultural Appropriation

    Fair Use as Cultural Appropriation Trevor G. Reed* Over the last four decades, scholars from diverse disciplines have documented a wide variety of cultural appropriations from Indigenous peoples and the harms these have inflicted. Copyright law provides at least some protection against appropriations of Indigenous culture— particularly for copyrightable songs, dances, oral histories, and other forms of Indigenous cultural creativity. But it is admittedly an imperfect fit for combatting cultural appropriation, allowing some publicly beneficial uses of protected works without the consent of the copyright owner under certain exceptions, foremost being copyright’s fair use doctrine. This Article evaluates fair use as a gatekeeping mechanism for unauthorized uses of copyrighted culture, one which empowers courts to sanction or disapprove of cultural appropriations to further copyright’s goal of promoting creative production.

Mills Le Francolin de Swierstra Francolinus swierstrai: bibliographie et catalogue des spécimens. Le Francolin de Swierstra Francolinus swierstrai, endémique aux montagnes de l’Angola occidental, est considérée comme une espèce menacée (avec le statut de ‘Vulnérable’). En l’absence d’obser- vations entre 1971 et 2005, nous connaissons très peu de choses sur cette espèce. Cette note résume l’information disponible, basée sur 19 spécimens récoltés de 1907 à 1971, et présente une bibliographie complète, dans l’espoir d’encourager plus de recherches sur l’espèce. Summary. Swierstra’s Francolin Francolinus swierstrai is the only threatened bird endemic to the montane region of Western Angola. With no sightings between 1971 and August 2005, knowl- edge of this species is very poor. This note presents a summary of available information, based on 19 specimens collected between 1907 and 1971, and provides a complete bibliography, in order to encourage further work on this high-priority species. wierstra’s Francolin Francolinus swierstrai (or SSwierstra’s Spurfowl Pternistis swierstrai) was last recorded in February 1971 (Pinto 1983), until its rediscovery at Mt Moco in August 2005 (Mills & Dean in prep.). This Vulnerable species (BirdLife International 2000, 2004) is the only threatened bird endemic to montane western Angola, an area of critical importance for biodiver- sity conservation (Bibby et al. 1992, Stattersfield et al. 1998). Swierstra’s Francolin has a highly fragmented range of c.18,500 km2 and is suspected, despite the complete lack of sightings for more than 30 years, to have a declining population estimated at 2,500–9,999.

  • Dance of the Holy Ghosts: a Play on Memory: Digital Dramaturgy

    Dance of the Holy Ghosts: a Play on Memory: Digital Dramaturgy

    dance of the holy ghosts: a play on memory: Digital Dramaturgy By Marcus Gardley Directed by Kwame Kwei-Armah Oct 9–Nov 17, 2013 Oscar Clifton is a Blues man living through his memories of the past, until his estranged grandson Marcus pays a visit. Together, they confront a history of loves, regrets, and missed opportunities. This acclaimed play by Marcus Gardley is a poetic family drama set in the key of Blues—a memory- scape skipping seamlessly across the decades. Meet Marcus Gardley Playwright's Biography Marcus Gardley grew up in the 1980s in Oakland, surrounded by a tight-knit community and raised by parents and grandparents from the South. He recalls, “Growing up in Oakland was really magical. I have family that all lived in the same vicinity; it was a huge community. I grew up in a political environment, but also a spiritual and diverse one. It had a huge effect on me.” Gardley spent his Sundays listening to his father preach, and the Black Church has informed and inspired some of his finest work. Though he started out as a poet, Gardley became captivated by playwriting during his college years at San Francisco State. He went on to Yale School of Drama, where he studied under celebrated playwright Lynn Nottage. Since then, Gardley has had productions at major theaters across the United States, and his work has garnered accolades for its soulful sincerity and lyricism. He currently splits his time between New York City and Providence, Rhode Island, where he teaches playwriting at Brown University. He makes a mean dish of Brussels sprouts and thoroughly enjoys mint juleps.

Photo by Richard Strauss, Smithsonian Institution Rhythm and Blues 53 Tell It Like It Is by Mark Puryear In 1964 The Dixie Cups®, a female vocal trio from New Orleans, crooned out a cheerful version of “Chapel of Love” and knocked the Beatles from their number one spot on the pop charts. A year later, the trio released “Iko Iko,” a song first released in 1954 by James “Sugar Boy” Crawford as “Jock-A-Mo,” whose lyrics recount the meeting of two groups of Mardi Gras Indians. Since then, this song has been cov- ered by artists from the Grateful Dead to Cyndi Lauper, and continues to move new generations with its infectious New Orleans rhythms. The career of The Dixie Cups, and their direct and indirect roles in carrying rhythm and blues (R&B) into mainstream consciousness, speaks to the enduring pow- er of this music to transcend region and musical category and become a representative sound of the country. Musical Crossroads by Dwandalyn Reece The National Museum of African American History of musical genres, highlighting musical innovations, and Culture (NMAAHC) was established by an act of significant time periods and events along with Congress in 2003 making it the nineteenth museum historic performances to capture the music’s impact of the Smithsonian Institution.
