  • Becoming a Modern American Playwright: Examining Hansberry, Miller, and Edson Katie Bauer Lee High School INTRODUCTION I Grew
    Becoming a Modern American Playwright: Examining Hansberry, Miller, and Edson Katie Bauer Lee High School INTRODUCTION I grew up in a small town in East Texas where everyone knew everyone else. I went to school with basically the same kids from kindergarten all the way to high school. Every once in a while, a new kid might move in or an old one might move out, but it certainly wasn’t a regular occurrence. There was the occasional fistfight and there was a ton of gossip (he said/she said), but for the most part, not much of anything seemed to go on around there. Most of us lived in two-parent households. My parents had divorced, but my grandparents lived with us, so that kind of made up for the absence of one. It seemed like everyone either lived on a good piece of land or if they didn’t, they knew someone who did. We spent much of our time roaming over pastures and exploring in the woods. Even in town, we were free to walk the streets, buying an ice cream at the local five and dime and then eating it on the courthouse steps. I never thought much of the freedom with which I lived in my younger years, never really appreciated the idyllic nature of what I was allowed and able to do . until recently. I teach drama in an inner-city high school in Houston. It has never ceased to amaze me the kinds of things my students reveal to me about their personal lives.

  • Women's Leadership in Primetime Television an Introductory Study
    Women’s Leadership in Primetime Television An Introductory Study Natalie Greene Spring 2009 General University Honors Capstone Advisor: Karen O’Connor Greene 1 Women’s Leadership in Prime-time Television: An Introductory Study Introduction When television executives report their core audience, women always come out ahead. A 2007 Nielsen Media Research report showed that, with only two exceptions, every broadcast network channel had more female viewers than men. ABC’s female audience almost doubled its male audience during the 2007-08 season (Atkinson, 2008). 1 Women onscreen, however, seem to reflect a different reality, making up only 43% of characters in the prime-time 2007-08 season (Lauzen, 2008). 2 As studies going back as far as the 1970s show, women on screen not only fail to represent the proportional makeup of women in society, they also overwhelmingly show a stereotypically gendered version of women (McNeil, 1975; Signorielli and Bacue, 1999; United States Commission on Civil Rights, 1977). This paper aims to address the evolution of women’s leadership in prime-time network scripted television from 1950 to 2008. Because of the way that women have been traditionally marginalized in television, it is important to study the shows that have featured women as lead characters. Characters such as Lucy Ricardo ( I Love Lucy, 1951-1960) influenced later female leads such as Ann Marie ( That Girl, 1966-1971), Mary Richards ( The Mary Tyler Moore Show, 1970-1977) and Murphy Brown ( Murphy Brown, 1988-1998). Thus, along with an introduction to socialization theory and feminist television criticism, this paper covers a selection of some of the most influential female characters and women-centered shows of this period.

  • The Creation of Black Character Formulas: a Critical Examination of Stereotypical Anthropomorphic Depictions and Their Role in Maintaining Whiteness
    THE CREATION OF BLACK CHARACTER FORMULAS: A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF STEREOTYPICAL ANTHROPOMORPHIC DEPICTIONS AND THEIR ROLE IN MAINTAINING WHITENESS THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Master‘s Degree in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Melissa Renee Crum, B.A. Graduate Program in African American and African Studies The Ohio State University 2010 Master‘s Thesis Committee: Professor Horace Ike Newsum, Advisor Professor Maurice Stevens Professor Kenneth Goings Copyright by Melissa Renee Crum 2010 ABSTRACT The mass media industry as a hegemonic entity has played a vital role in displaying fallacious accounts of black life. Grounded in ideas from scholars like Richard Schechner, Patricia Ticineto, Joseph Roach and Sara Ahmed, this research is a critique of the ways in which memory, and its possible manifestations, plays in non-blacks‘ (specifically whites) interpretation, motivation, and perception of stereotypical visual portrayals of blackness. The focus will be on how the continuing phenomenon of stereotyping blackness in the 20th and 21st centuries is perpetuated in child-targeted feature-length animations with animal characters. I argue that the possible furtive and/or involuntary visual manifestations of ―black identity‖ in animation have their sources in a white historical memory that clings to the desire to maintain whiteness. This work demonstrates how ideas of blackness in white memory were not solely constructed from the imaginations of producers of mainstream culture. Rather black stereotypes are the result of a combination of black protest against negative portrayals, blacks as accomplices in perpetuating their negative stereotypes, and whites‘ imagined ways of blackness.
