STRATEGIES OF NARRATIVE DISCLOSURE IN THE RHETORIC OF ANTI-CORPORATE CAMPAIGNS by RICHARD ALEXANDER HERDER Under the Direction of Dr. Michael Bruner ABSTRACT In the years following World War II social activists learned to refine rhetorical techniques for gaining the attention of the new global mass media and developed anti-corporate campaigns to convince some of the world’s largest companies to concede to their demands. Despite these developments, rhetorical critics have tended to overlook anti-corporate campaigns as objects of study in their own right. One can account for the remarkable success of anti-corporate campaigns by understanding how activists have practiced prospective narrative disclosure, a calculated rhetorical wager that, through the public circulation of stories and texts disclosing problematic practices and answerable decision makers, activists can influence the policies and practices of prominent corporations. In support of this thesis, I provide case studies of two anti-corporate campaigns: the Amalgamated Clothing and Textile Workers Union vs. -

WRITTEN TESTIMONY of CATHERINE SEVCENKO Director of Litigation, Foundation for Individual Rights in Education Before the UNITED STATES HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES COMMITTEE ON WAYS AND MEANS, SUBCOMMITTEE ON OVERSIGHT March 2, 2016 Hearing on Protecting the Free Exchange of Ideas on College Campuses March 2, 2016 Representative Peter Roskam Chairman House Ways and Means Oversight Subcommittee B-317 Longworth House Office Building Washington, DC 20515 Representative John Lewis Ranking Member House Ways and Means Oversight Subcommittee 1106 Longworth House Office Building Washington, DC 20515 RE: March 2, 2016 Hearing on Protecting the Free Exchange of Ideas on College Campuses Dear Chairman Roskam, Ranking Member Lewis, and honorable members of the Subcommittee: The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE; thefire.org) is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to defending student and faculty rights on America’s college and university campuses. These rights include freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, legal equality, due process, religious liberty, and sanctity of conscience—the essential qualities of individual liberty and dignity. Since FIRE’s founding in 1999, our efforts have won 385 victories on behalf of students and faculty members whose rights were unjustly denied at 250 colleges and universities, defeated 223 repressive speech codes thereby advancing freedom of expression for more than 3.5 million students, educated millions about the problem of censorship on campus, and spurred reforms across the entire California, Hawaii, and Wisconsin state university systems. Every day, FIRE receives pleas for help from students and faculty who have found themselves victims of administrative censorship or unjust punishments simply for speaking their minds. -

Introduction in FOCUS: Revoicing the Screen
IN FOCUS: Revoicing the Screen Introduction by TESSA DWYER and JENNIFER o’mEARA, editors he paradoxes engendered by voice on-screen are manifold. Screen voices both leverage and disrupt associations with agency, presence, immediacy, and intimacy. Concurrently, they institute artifice and distance, otherness and uncanniness. Screen voices are always, to an extent, disembodied, partial, and Tunstable, their technological mediation facilitating manipulation, remix, and even subterfuge. The audiovisual nature of screen media places voice in relation to— yet separate from—the image, creating gaps and connections between different sensory modes, techniques, and technologies, allowing for further disjunction and mismatch. These elusive dynamics of screen voices—whether on-screen or off-screen, in dialogue or voice-over, as soundtrack or audioscape— have already been much commented on and theorized by such no- tables as Rick Altman, Michel Chion, Rey Chow, Mary Ann Doane, Kaja Silverman, and Mikhail Yampolsky, among others.1 Focusing primarily on cinema, these scholars have made seminal contribu- tions to the very ways that film and screen media are conceptual- ized through their focus on voice, voice recording and mixing, and postsynchronization as fundamental filmmaking processes.

Traducción Entrevista Con Boots Riley
Traducción entrevista con Boots Riley David Riu: Hola Boots encantando de hablar contigo otra vez, ¿cómo van las cosas por aquí en la bahía, en Oakland, California Boots Riley: Oh, en realidad las cosas van muy bien, estoy dejando mucho trabajo hecho. Debido al confinamiento, todos los proyectos que tenía retrasados los estoy acabando, también pasando tiempo con la familia. Me monto mi horario, hacer ejercicio, trabajo, la familia… nunca antes lo había podido tener. Normalmente siempre estaba trabajando, siempre ando liado con muchos proyectos, en realidad demasiados… pero luego cuando no hago nada, me preocupo por no estar haciendo nada. D: Sabes, al principio de este podcast estaba hablando, de cómo se están cancelando grandes conciertos, grandes eventos, pero esto no significa que la música vaya a desaparecer, y me ha venido a la cabeza lo que pasó en Sevilla con Antonio Saavedra, el cantante de flamenco, ¿te acuerdas? B: Sí, estábamos en el café, en Sevilla, él apareció, le “pillé” el ritmo cogí el móvil, y todo listo. Creo además, que se volvió viral y sonó en algunas radios. D: Así que crees que como están las cosas, es momento de volver a la música como algo más local, más de pequeño formato, no todo tienen que ser grandes eventos. Disfrutar de la música de todos modos, no necesitas tener 20mil personas a tu alrededor para ver un buen concierto o cualquier tipo de arte B: Creo que a estas alturas en realidad ya es así de alguna manera. Míralo de este punto de vista, en los 90’s necesitabas tener un contrato discográfico, al menos en los EEUU.
