  • Bob Marley's Music As an Alternative Communicative Channel In
    Bob Marley’s Music as an Alternative Communicative Channel in Postcolonial Movements for Development and Social Change Cara-Marie Findlay Media, Globalization and Development Malmö University October 2020 Findlay 1.2 Essay Introduction 1 Bob Marley’s Music as an Alternative Communicative Channel in Postcolonial Movements for Development and Social Change The mediatization of the world is an important concept to understand in connection to development and social change. As Martin Scott states, “Media not only increase[s] our access to knowledge of events happening around the world, but also (seemingly) enable[s] us to influence them” (Scott, 2014, p. 1). There seems to be a tendency “to focus on the very latest technological supports” (Mattoni & Treré, 2014, p. 255) when considering the social movements of the present. This “technological-fascination bias” often neglects “the relevance that prior technological supports had and continue to have in social movements” (Mattoni & Treré, 2014, p. 255). There is no doubt that today’s technology affects “mediation processes”—the flow, circulation, and interpretation of media (Mattoni & Treré, 2014, p. 260), which in turn affects social movements. However, in the age of the Internet with its latest applications, it can be easy to neglect the roles of alternative media, such as music, in social movements. “Music [has] played an integral role in social movements and liberation movements” (Prestholdt, 2019, p. 77). This essay focuses on Bob Marley’s Music as an alternative communicative channel in postcolonial movements for development and social change. In the context of this essay, postcolonialism refers to both: condition—the state of being after ​ ​ colonialism and imperialism; and to anti-colonialism—against all forms of colonial power (McEwan 2018, pp.

  • Bob Marley: 40 Anni Fa L'ultimo Concerto Della Star Del Reggae
    GIOVEDì 17 SETTEMBRE 2020 Proprio in questi giorni è disponibile in edicola la discografia di BOB MARLEY. In una sola collezione di 17 cd, gli album da studio originali e i migliori concerti live: tra questi, non può ovviamente mancare "Bob Bob Marley: 40 anni fa l'ultimo Marley & The Wailers-Live Forever: The Stanley Theatre, Pittsburgh", concerto della star del reggae edizione ufficiale dell'ultimo storico concerto live del "profeta" del reggae. Esattamente 40 anni fa, infatti, il 23 settembre 1980 - data simbolo per tutti i fan del reggae e non solo - Marley e la sua band, The Wailers, si esibivano con il loro "Uprising Tour" in Pennsylvania, allo Stanley Theater. CRISTIAN PEDRAZZINI Sarebbe stato il suo ultimo concerto, prima della prematura scomparsa (11 maggio 1981). Diventato un eroe per milioni di persone grazie a canzoni che parlano di sofferenza e salvezza, sebbene esausto e già provato dalla malattia, in quella serata memorabile Bob Marley propose una grandiosa e trionfale setlist: successi come Coming in from the Cold, Work, Could You Be [email protected] Loved, la leggendaria Redemption Song e Zion Train (tratti dall'album SPETTACOLINEWS.IT pubblicato quell'anno, "Uprising") ma anche classici del suo repertorio come Positive Vibration, No Woman, No Cry, Jamming, Exodus e Is This Love. Get Up Stand Up sarebbe stato ufficialmente l'ultimo brano proposto live. Anni dopo Roger Steffens, biografo ufficiale di Marley, dichiarò: «Bob salì su quel palco sapendo di essere condannato ma, ascoltando lo show, non ci sono segni di dolore, nessuna debolezza: è un'emozione straordinaria». In esclusiva per le edicole, la collana "Bob Marley" proseguirà fino a dicembre con successi intramontabili come "Legend", album reggae più venduto al mondo: sono già disponibili le prime uscite, "UPRISING"; "CATCH A FIRE" e "NATTY DREAD".

Marley's contribution to music has increased the visibility of Jamaican music around the world and has made him a global figure in popular culture for more than a decade. During his career, Marley became known as the Rastafari icon, and he imbued his music with a sense of spirituality. He is also considered a global symbol of Jamaican music and culture and identity, and has been controversial in his outspoken support for marijuana legalization, while he has also advocated for pan-African.

However, research has also identified that barriers in the urban environment often prevent parents from being more fully engaged, including barriers related to transportation, housing, and neighborhood safety. These urban environmental barriers are rarely mentioned in the current school reform debates, nor are there detailed analyses of how actual environmental issues present barriers to parents. This dissertation fills this gap by examining how the urban environment affects parents’ time, energy, and resources for engagement in their children’s learning.
