    Excerpt from the panel discussion, “Of Subjugation and Human Consciousness, DuBois in Africa and Fanon in the U.S.” between Michele Lewis, the Robert E. Lee Chair of Sociology at University of California, Berkeley and Fran Touissaint, Performance Studies Chair of University of Mississippi at Jackson. This conversation took place as part of the symposium, “Humans after Labor” hosted by the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, in November of 2014. Moderated by August Vollbrecht and plenary from Andrew Mehall. This excerpt is from 1:03:52 to 1:17:41 and focuses on face paints contemporary role of masking in relation to rap music. August Vollbrecht: I think we have to go back to the clown the contemporary understanding of the clown and it’s understanding in America.

  • THE CHEKHOV DREAMS a Play by John Mckinney Copyright © 2014
    THE CHEKHOV DREAMS A play by John McKinney Copyright © 2014 by John McKinney 67 East 11St. Apt. #708 New York, NY 10003 (212) 598-9970 [email protected] ii CHARACTERS JEREMY Mid-30’s, affable, well-read, reclusive, a wounded soul. KATE Mid-30’s, beautiful, sophisticated, perceptive, deceased. CHRISSY Early 20’s, cute, upbeat, eager, passionate. EDDIE Late 30’s, jaded, decadent, addicted to just about everything. CHEKHOV Mid 40’s, wise, eccentric, crotchety, deceased. SETTING Time: The present. Place: New York City, various locations; A lake, various times and seasons. Author’s notes: This play was written as a dark romantic comedy, accent on the comedy. As such, the default tempo for the play should be brisk and lively, pausing or stopping only as necessary to reflect the deeper, more serious moments. Scene transitions should occur as smoothly as possible with a minimum of set and prop handling to ensure that the story keeps moving apace. In essence the play should avoid the trap of over-indulging in the darker currents of the story and becoming labored or ponderous. As this play explores two alternating states of mind – dreams and reality – it is intended that the design elements establish a distinctive motif for each. For example, there might be a magical, sparkling quality to the lighting to represent the water reflecting off of the lake in the dream scenes, while the real life apartment scenes might have a grittier, more somber feel especially as most of these scenes occur at night. Similarly, the dream scenes might be accompanied by a recurring ethereal theme, or “dreamscape,” which would shift in tone from light and magical to something more ominous, reflecting the main character’s psychological journey.

  • This Interview Is Being Conducted on Barry Chism. Let's Start with The
    This interview is being conducted on Barry Chism. Let's start with the beginning of your life. When were you born? Mr. Chism: I was born on May 21, 1925, about a mile and a half south of here in Greenbrier, Tennessee and I haven't been afar from this spot forever. With the exception of going to war... Mr. Chism: Well that was not voluntary, but I did go. I was kind of hoping and kind of hoping and kind of thinking that the war was going to end before I got into it because of my age. I was drafted a twenty-five year old man and pretty soon they dropped it down to a twenty-one year man and I thought that I was still in pretty good shape. I wasn't twenty-one yet but I was still in high school. I believe it was in 1942 that they dropped the draft age down to eighteen. But they guaranteed you; supposedly, a year’s training before you go overseas. That was in the bill that passed by our lawmakers at that time. No person under the age of nineteen would be sent overseas. I still thought I was in pretty good shape. So I did manage to graduate from high school, then the draft got me. I wound up beginning to take basic training at Fort McClellan, Alabama. But first they pick you up and send you to what is called a reception center. I don’t know why they call those things reception centers. We didn't get such a good reception there.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events.

HIP-HOP’S DIVERSITY AND MISPERCEPTIONS by Andrew Cashman A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for a Degree with Honors (Anthropology) The Honors College University of Maine August 2020 Advisory Committee: Joline Blais, Associate Professor of New Media, Advisor Kreg Ettenger, Associate Professor of Anthropology Christine Beitl, Associate Professor of Anthropology Sharon Tisher, Lecturer, School of Economics and Honors Stuart Marrs, Professor of Music 2020 Andrew Cashman All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT The misperception that hip-hop is a single entity that glorifies wealth and the selling of drugs, and promotes misogynistic attitudes towards women, as well as advocating gang violence is one that supports a mainstream perspective towards the marginalized.1 The prevalence of drug dealing and drug use is not a picture of inherent actions of members in the hip-hop community, but a reflection of economic opportunities that those in poverty see as a means towards living well. Some artists may glorify that, but other artists either decry it or offer it as a tragic reality. In hip-hop trends build off of music and music builds off of trends in a cyclical manner.
