  • You Can't Eat the Sweet with the Paper On
    ISSN 1653-2244 INSTITUTIONEN FÖR KULTURANTROPOLOGI OCH ETNOLOGI DEPARTMENT OF CULTURAL ANTHROPOLOGY AND ETHNOLOGY You can’t eat the sweet with the paper on An anthropological study of perceptions of HIV and HIV prevention among Xhosa youth in Cape Town, South Africa By Kajsa Yllequist 2018 MASTERUPPSATSER I KULTURANTROPOLOGI Nr 77 Abstract South Africa has the biggest HIV epidemic in the world and the HIV rates among youth are especially alarming. In 2016 there were 110 000 new cases of HIV among 15 to 24-year-olds1. The aim of this study is to describe and analyse perceptions of HIV and HIV prevention among Xhosa youth in the township of Langa, Cape Town. In order to study this, I focus on the organisation loveLife and their employed peer educators called groundBREAKERs (gBs). To gain knowledge on what fuels the HIV epidemic in this setting I will examine their thoughts and notions of HIV/AIDS, sexuality and sexual behaviour in relation to the information that is available to them. Examining the socio-cultural context of HIV/AIDS is important to understand the spread and why HIV is not declining sufficiently in response to HIV preventative efforts. This thesis is based on ten weeks of fieldwork at loveLife’s Y-Centre in Langa. The material was gathered through semi-structured interviews and participant observation. To analyse the drivers for the spread of HIV among Xhosa youth an analytical tool of gender roles, with a main focus on masculinity, has been utilized. Title: You can’t eat the sweet with the paper on – An anthropological study of perceptions of HIV and HIV prevention among Xhosa youth in Cape Town, South Africa.

  • KOOL & the GANG, Jersey City, N.J. in 1964, Ronald Bell and Robert
    KOOL & THE GANG, Jersey City, N.J. In 1964, Ronald Bell and Robert “Kool” Bell joined Jersey City neighborhood friends Robert “Spike” Mickens, Dennis “Dee Tee” Thomas, Ricky Westfield, George Brown, and Charles Smith to create the Kool & the Gang sound - a unique blend of jazz, soul and funk. Throughout the seventies this blend produced a string of hits including “Jungle Boogie”, “Hollywood Swinging”, “Funky Stuff’ and “Summer Madness”. In 1979 the group penetrated the pop market by incorporating the smooth sounds of vocalist James “JT” Taylor with their infectious formula for making hits. Casey Kasem named Kool & the Gang the band of the eighties noting the bands steady stream of hits during the decade. “Ladies Night”, “Get Down on It” “Joanna” and the theme song to parties worldwide, “Celebration”, solidified Kool & the Gang’s musical legacy. Today, the group enjoys global fame and recognition and a following that spans generations due in part to the groups widely sampled catalogue. Kool & the Gang’s drum beats, bass, guitar and signature horn lines lace the tracks of numerous artists including the Beastie Boys, Jay-Z, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Cypress Hill, and P. Diddy. Kool & the Gang is the most sampled band in hip-hop by far. Their music is also featured on the soundtracks for Rocky, Saturday Night Fever, Pulp Fiction, Wreck-lt Ralph and countless others. For fifty years, Kool & the Gang has continued to tour the world appearing with artists such as Kid Rock, Dave Matthews Band, Elton John, The Roots and a 50-city tour with Van Halen.

  • Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 © Copyright by Benjamin Grant Doleac 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION “We Made It Through That Water”: Rhythm, Dance, and Resistance in the New Orleans Second Line by Benjamin Grant Doleac Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Cheryl L. Keyes, Chair The black brass band parade known as the second line has been a staple of New Orleans culture for nearly 150 years. Through more than a century of social, political and demographic upheaval, the second line has persisted as an institution in the city’s black community, with its swinging march beats and emphasis on collective improvisation eventually giving rise to jazz, funk, and a multitude of other popular genres both locally and around the world. More than any other local custom, the second line served as a crucible in which the participatory, syncretic character of black music in New Orleans took shape. While the beat of the second line reverberates far beyond the city limits today, the neighborhoods that provide the parade’s sustenance face grave challenges to their existence. Ten years after Hurricane Katrina tore up the economic and cultural fabric of New Orleans, these largely poor communities are plagued on one side by underfunded schools and internecine violence, and on the other by the rising tide of post-disaster gentrification and the redlining-in- disguise of neoliberal urban policy.

  • "Born in a Second Line": Glen David Andrews Shares New Orleans Musical Heritage with the World
    COVER STORY "Born in a Second Line": Glen David Andrews shares New Orleans musical heritage with the world By Dean M. Shapiro Over a long, stellar career filled with honors, awards and international accolades, Glen David Andrews has just added another milestone to his list of accomplish- ments: his own namesake record label! The New Orleans born-and-raised trom- bonist and vocalist with possibly the most distinguished musical lineage in the city’s history, is touting his latest release, a digital album titled “Live in My Living Room” on the Glen David Andrews Records label (a subsidiary of Louisiana Red Hot Records). Recorded live in his French Quarter living room during the COVID-19 quarantine, the album is already making the rounds and available for downloading from Andrews’ Facebook page and website. Backed by the six-piece Glen David Andrews Band plus himself on vocals, Andrews penned five of the disc’s eight cuts. These include the lead track, “Treme Hideaway,” a tribute to a music club recently opened by his older brother, Grammy Award-winning drum- mer Derrick Tabb of the Rebirth Brass Band, in the city’s musically rich 6th Ward where the two of them grew up. As he explained in the accompanying liner notes, “This album was done to give you the experience of my live shows. Due to the current situation we couldn’t go in the studio to record this record, but nothing can stop the Spirit of the New Orleans musicians so we decided to record it live.” Despite being unable to perform in clubs, go on tour or play for special events, Andrews has not been idle.
