Each year, thousands of scholars from many academic disciplines across the globe travel to meet in a major American city to share and discuss their research at the conference in a number of venues: panel presentations, roundtables, special sessions, film screenings, local tours, keynote speaker events, special awards ceremonies, and other gatherings. This year’s conference is in the City of Brotherly Love—Philadelphia— from April 15-18, 2020. Our site is the beautiful, centrally located Phila- delphia Marriott Downtown, located within steps of the Reading Termi- nal Market and Independence Hall. The Philadelphia Museum of Art, City Hall, Barnes Museum and Franklin Institute are also nearby. Founded in 1970, PCA turns fifty this year, and this conference launches our one- year semicentennial celebration. Much is planned, and while you will want to explore the city, don’t overlook the many amazing PCA offer- ings available at the hotel. The conference schedule is available on the website with full details on each day’s offerings. I am honored to present the PCA Presidential Award to Terry Gross, the host and co-executive producer of Fresh Air, an interview-based radio show produced by WHYY-FM in Philadelphia and distributed nationally by NPR. Born and raised in Brooklyn, Gross began her radio career in 1973 at public radio station WBFO in Buffalo, New York, where she hosted and produced several arts, women’s and public affairs pro- grams, including This Is Radio, a live, three-hour magazine program that aired daily. Two years later, she joined the staff of WHYY-FM in Philadel- phia as producer and host of Fresh Air, then a local, daily interview and music program. Since 1987, a daily, one-hour national edition of Fresh Air has been produced by WHYY-FM. The program is broadcast on nearly 600 stations and became the first non-drivetime show in pub- lic radio history to reach more than five million listeners a week. Fresh Air received the prestigious Peabody Award in 1994 for its “probing questions, revelatory interviews and unusual insight.” Fresh Air not only covers popular culture; it has become a familiar part of it. Its interviews 8 are in a category by themselves, distinguished by host and co-executive producer Terry Gross’ unique approach. The program and Gross have been name-checked on Saturday Night Live, Girls, HBO’s Eastbound and Down, and How I Met Your Mother. Gross played herself on an episode of The Simpsons and was a guest on The Colbert Report. Gross is also the author of All I Did Was Ask: Conversations with Writers, Actors, Musicians and Artists, published by Hyperion in 2004. You will want to see one of America’s most renowned and insightful interviewers, Terry Gross, at the PCA Grand Reception on Thursday, April 16, from 6:30-8:00 pm in Salons E and F. A second tribute not to be missed is the presentation of the Ray and Pat Browne Award for contributions to the Popular Arts to award-win- ning writer and director, Kevin Willmott, best known for work focusing on black issues, including writing and directing Ninth Street, C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America, and Bunker Hill. The Only Good Indian (2009) is Willmott’s feature film about Native American children at an Indian boarding school and the forced assimilation into White So- ciety that takes place there. In 2015, Willmott co-wrote Chi-Raq with Spike Lee, with whom he shares an Academy Award for Best Adapted Screenplay for BlacKKKlansman (2019). The film is a comedic biopic that chronicles the bizarre true story of an undercover black detective who infiltrates the Ku Klux Klan. The Oscar win provoked the anger of Pres- ident Trump after Lee’s acceptance speech urged the audience to “be on the right side of history” when voting in the 2020 election. Willmott’s next project, Da 5 Bloods, another collaborative effort with Lee, began shooting in March 2019. Willmott is also working on a documentary about Langston Hughes. He will be speaking on Saturday, April 18, from 3:00-4:30 pm in Salons E and F. Another fun event, especially if you like things retro, is a talk by Beth Lennon, better known as Mod Betty®, the creative mind behind the Retro Roadmap® Roadbook series, based on her popular travel web- site RetroRoadmap.com / the online source for “Cool Vintage Places & Retro Fun!” A “Jane of All Trades,” she has written for the National Trust for Historic Preservation, crowd-funded and starred in the online Ret- ro Roadmap® video series, hostesses vintage weekends, and delivers presentations both serious and silly across multiple states. Mod Betty’s delightful presentation takes place on Wednesday, April 15, from 6:30- 8:00 in Salons E and F. 9 Finally, Gary Hoppenstand, this year’s recipient of the Lynn Bartholome Eminent Scholar Award, will deliver the Bartholome Lecture, “The Story of Popular Culture as Story,” on Friday, April 17, from 3:00-4:45 in Salon D. Professor of English at Michigan State University, Hoppenstand spe- cializes in genre and narrative studies in popular fiction, graphic novels, film. and television. He has published twenty-four books, including nine scholarly reprint editions of classics novels for Signet Classics and Pen- guin Classics, and over sixty scholarly articles on topics in popular culture studies, literary studies, and media studies. Hoppenstand is one of popu- lar culture’s brightest lights, and his talk promises to be a highlight of the conference. On a personal note, I have been a member of PCA since I joined as a graduate student in 1979, and the association and its many enthusias- tic members hold a special place in my heart. I feel humbled to be the president of this remarkable organization. Along with Executive Direc- tor Lynn Bartholome, Past President Phil Simpson, Vice President Sue Matheson, Board Chair Gary Edgerton, Editors Ann Larabee and Carl Sederholm, and all the members of the PCA Governing Board, I thank you for your support of PCA and the study of popular culture. All of us welcome you to Philadelphia, wish you a happy and productive confer- ence, and look forward to seeing you!

They include examinations of LGBTQ community, civil rights, the law, health, art and artists, commerce, the military, sports and leisure, and sex, love, and relationships. MAKING COMMUNITY: THE PLACES AND15 SPACES OF LGBTQ COLLECTIVE IDENTITY FORMATION Christina B. Hanhardt Introduction In the summer of 2012, posters reading "MORE GRINDR=FEWER GAY BARS” appeared taped to signposts in numerous gay neighborhoods in North America—from Greenwich Village in New York City to Davie Village in Vancouver, Canada.1 The signs expressed a brewing fear: that the popularity of online lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) social media—like Grindr, which connects gay men based on proximate location—would soon replace the bricks-and-mortar institutions that had long facilitated LGBTQ community building.

  • Julia Reichert and the Work of Telling Working-Class Stories
    FEATURES JULIA REICHERT AND THE WORK OF TELLING WORKING-CLASS STORIES Patricia Aufderheide It was the Year of Julia: in 2019 documentarian Julia Reichert received lifetime-achievement awards at the Full Frame and HotDocs festivals, was given the inaugural “Empowering Truth” award from Kartemquin Films, and saw a retrospec- tive of her work presented at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. (The International Documentary Association had already given her its 2018 award.) Meanwhile, her newest work, American Factory (2019)—made, as have been all her films in the last two decades, with Steven Bognar—is being championed for an Academy Award nomination, which would be Reichert’s fourth, and has been picked up by the Obamas’ new Higher Ground company. A lifelong socialist- feminist and self-styled “humanist Marxist” who pioneered independent social-issue films featuring women, Reichert was also in 2019 finishing another film, tentatively titled 9to5: The Story of a Movement, about the history of the movement for working women’srights. Yet Julia Reichert is an underrecognized figure in the contemporary documentary landscape. All of Reichert’s films are rooted in Dayton, Ohio. Though periodically rec- ognized by the bicoastal documentary film world, she has never been a part of it, much like her Chicago-based fellow Julia Reichert in 2019.

  • The Art of David Lynch
    The Art of David Lynch weil das Kino heute wieder anders funktioniert; für ei- nen wie ihn ist da kein Platz. Aber deswegen hat Lynch ja nicht seine Kunst aufgegeben, und nicht einmal das Filmen. Es ist nur so, dass das Mainstream-Kino den Kaperversuch durch die Kunst ziemlich fundamental abgeschlagen hat. Jetzt den Filmen von David Lynch noch einmal wieder zu begegnen, ist ein Glücksfall. Danach muss man sich zum Fernsehapparat oder ins Museum bemühen. (Und grimmig die Propaganda des Künstlers für den Unfug transzendentaler Meditation herunterschlucken; »nobody is perfect.«) Was also ist das Besondere an David Lynch? Seine Arbeit geschah und geschieht nach den »Spielregeln der Kunst«, die bekanntlich in ihrer eigenen Schöpfung und zugleich in ihrem eigenen Bruch bestehen. Man er- kennt einen David-Lynch-Film auf Anhieb, aber niemals David Lynch hat David Lynch einen »David-Lynch-Film« gedreht. Be- 21 stimmte Motive (sagen wir: Stehlampen, Hotelflure, die Farbe Rot, Hauchgesänge von Frauen, das industrielle Rauschen, visuelle Americana), bestimmte Figuren (die Frau im Mehrfachleben, der Kobold, Kyle MacLachlan als Stellvertreter in einer magischen Biographie - weni- ger, was ein Leben als vielmehr, was das Suchen und Was ist das Besondere an David Lynch? Abgesehen Erkennen anbelangt, Väter und Polizisten), bestimmte davon, dass er ein paar veritable Kultfilme geschaffen Plot-Fragmente (die nie auflösbare Intrige, die Suche hat, Filme, wie ERASERHEAD, BLUE VELVET oder die als Sturz in den Abgrund, die Verbindung von Gewalt TV-Serie TWIN PEAKS, die aus merkwürdigen Gründen und Design) kehren in wechselnden Kompositionen (denn im klassischen Sinn zu »verstehen« hat sie ja nie wieder, ganz zu schweigen von Techniken wie dem jemand gewagt) die genau richtigen Bilder zur genau nicht-linearen Erzählen, dem Eindringen in die ver- richtigen Zeit zu den genau richtigen Menschen brach- borgenen Innenwelten von Milieus und Menschen, der ten, und abgesehen davon, dass er in einer bestimmten Grenzüberschreitung von Traum und Realität.

  • Constructing the Witch in Contemporary American Popular Culture
    "SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES": CONSTRUCTING THE WITCH IN CONTEMPORARY AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE Catherine Armetta Shufelt A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2007 Committee: Dr. Angela Nelson, Advisor Dr. Andrew M. Schocket Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Donald McQuarie Dr. Esther Clinton © 2007 Catherine A. Shufelt All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Dr. Angela Nelson, Advisor What is a Witch? Traditional mainstream media images of Witches tell us they are evil “devil worshipping baby killers,” green-skinned hags who fly on brooms, or flaky tree huggers who dance naked in the woods. A variety of mainstream media has worked to support these notions as well as develop new ones. Contemporary American popular culture shows us images of Witches on television shows and in films vanquishing demons, traveling back and forth in time and from one reality to another, speaking with dead relatives, and attending private schools, among other things. None of these mainstream images acknowledge the very real beliefs and traditions of modern Witches and Pagans, or speak to the depth and variety of social, cultural, political, and environmental work being undertaken by Pagan and Wiccan groups and individuals around the world. Utilizing social construction theory, this study examines the “historical process” of the construction of stereotypes surrounding Witches in mainstream American society as well as how groups and individuals who call themselves Pagan and/or Wiccan have utilized the only media technology available to them, the internet, to resist and re- construct these images in order to present more positive images of themselves as well as build community between and among Pagans and nonPagans.

  • ECON 3240 American Factory Workers in Chinese Factory Spring 2020
    ECON 3240 American Factory workers in Chinese Factory Spring 2020 American Factory is great documentary for us, mainly because it discusses how some can fall out of the middle class, becoming vulnerable if not poor, but then thanks to government policy (what government) claw the their way back into the middle class, keeping the Dream alive for themselves and their children we hope (IG mobility). It is also the almost universal story but a story of how workers and manageres learng by doing (aka learning by doing). For reasons that become obviout in the film the same factories and workers learn to do better overtime, like AI but not artificial, more of a group dynamic with input from workers and managers. Somehow workers can become much more productive over time, using lesst time to produce the same number of cars (or glass panels..). The makers of this documentatry sense this dynamic: the camera dwells on the machinery and workers converting sand (silicon) many shapes of very transparent glass (our Coa our Chinese owner entreprenuer writes a song about transparency, which could have two meanings, and Fu, see the Terry Gross interview below.

Document is a main source of information for lawyers. And in cinema, basic film forms are defined with their own properties. The common sense is to seperate documentary from fiction, experimental from main current and animation from the live action films.

In this study, animated documentary genre which is a form of hybrid documentary has been concerned with Baudrillard’s theory.

During her college years she was influenced by the lesbian novels “The Well of Loneliness,” by Radclyffe Hall, and “Spring Fire,” by Vin Packer. At 24, Bannon published her first novel, “Odd Girl Out.” Born Ann Weldy, she adopted the pen name Ann Bannon because she did not want to be associated with lesbian pulps. Although she was married to a man, she secretly spent weekends in Greenwich Village exploring the lesbian nightlife. Between 1957 and 1962, she wrote “I Am A Woman,” “Women in the Shadows,” “Journey to a Woman” and “Beebo Brinker.” Together they constitute the “The Beebo Brinker Chronicles.” The series centers on young lesbians living in Greenwich Village and is noted for its accurate and sympathetic portrayal of gay and lesbian life. “We were exploring a corner of the human spirit that few others were writing about, or ever had,” said Bannon, “And we were doing it in a time and place where our needs and hopes were frankly illegal.” In 1980, when her books were reprinted, she claimed authorship of the novels. In 2004, “The Beebo Brinker Chronicles” was adapted into a successful stage play.

  • Bibliography of Sexuality Studies in Latin America
    Bibliography of Sexuality Studies in Latin America In 1997 Donna J. Guy and I published a bibliography of sexuality studies on Latin America in our edited book Sex and Sexuality in Latin America (New York University Press, 1997), including studies in a wide variety of fields. This bibliography was updated for the Spanish edition of that book, Sexo y sexualidades en América Latina (Paidos, Buenos Aires, 1998); that version included a number of items that had come to our attention after we turned in the book to NYU. Interestingly, the number of publications in Latin America (and in Spanish and Portuguese) increased in that brief period, and continues to increase. Adán Griego has added his own bibliography and has agreed to maintain it and keep it current. The bibliography that follows is based on the previous ones but has the advantage of not being fixed in time. —— Daniel Balderston, 1999.
