Biographical Note Helen Reddy (born October 25, 1941) is an Australian- American singer and actress, best known for her hit song, "I Am Woman". She was the first Australian to win a Grammy Award and to have three No. 1 hits in the same year. In the 1970s, she enjoyed international success, especially in the United States, where she placed fifteen singles in the Top 10 on the Billboard Charts, eight of which reached No. 1. She was a frequent guest on talk shows and variety programs of the 1970s and early 1980s, including The Bobby Darin Show, The Carol Burnett Show and The Muppet Show. In 1973, Reddy helmed the NBC summer replacement series for The Flip Wilson Show. The series, The Helen Reddy Show, had guests such as George Carlin, Redd Foxx, Albert Brooks, Gloria Steinem, and Flip Wilson, who often appeared as his alter ego, Geraldine Jones. Reddy was also a semi-regular host of the NBC late night variety show The Midnight Special from 1973 to 1975. Scope and Content The collection consists of sheet music for the arrangements used in The Helen Reddy Show. These range from music used to play guests on and off the set and to introduce scenes to reconceptualizations of popular hits, including Reddy's own songs. Most of the pieces are arranged by orchestra leader Nelson Riddle; other arrangers include Harry Betts, Bill Byers, Lenny Coltun, Lenny Stack, and Michael Warren. Many of the arrangements are on paper issued by the American Federation of Musicians Local 47, The Musicians' Union of Hollywood.

    Journal of Ethnic and Cultural Studies Copyright 2020 2020, Vol. 7, No. 3, 142-162 ISSN: 2149-1291 http://dx.doi.org/10.29333/ejecs/392 Racism’s Back Door: A Mixed-Methods Content Analysis of Transformative Sketch Comedy in the US from 1960-2000 Jennifer Kim1 Independent Scholar, USA Abstract: Comedy that challenges race ideology is transformative, widely available, and has the potential to affect processes of identity formation and weaken hegemonic continuity and dominance. Outside of the rules and constraints of serious discourse and cultural production, these comedic corrections thrive on discursive and semiotic ambiguity and temporality. Comedic corrections offer alternate interpretations overlooked or silenced by hegemonic structures and operating modes of cultural common sense. The view that their effects are ephemeral and insignificant is an incomplete and misguided evaluation. Since this paper adopts Hegel’s understanding of comedy as the spirit (Geist) made material, its very constitution, and thus its power, resides in exposing the internal thought processes often left unexamined, bringing them into the foreground, dissecting them, and exposing them for ridicule and transformation. In essence, the work of comedy is to consider all points of human processing and related structuration as fair game. The phenomenological nature of comedy calls for a micro-level examination. Select examples from The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour (1968), The Richard Pryor Show (1977), Saturday Night Live (1990), and Chappelle’s Show (2003) will demonstrate representative ways that comedy attacks and transforms racial hegemony. Keywords: comedy, cultural sociology, popular culture, race and racism, resistance. During periods of social unrest, what micro-level actions are available to the public? Or, how does a particular society respond to inequities that are widely shared and agreed upon as intolerable aspects of a society? One popular method to challenge a hegemonic structure, and to survive it, is comedy.

You Are What You (M)eat: Explorations of Meat-eating, Masculinity and Masquerade By Amy Calvert1 Abstract Food consumption is frequently linked to identity and to who we are as individuals, which I explore through the analysis of the US reality television series Man V. Food. Through close readings of various scenes, I look at representations of hegemonic masculine performance2, and the sexualisation of women and meat. In light of my analysis, I argue that the show is both post-feminist and part of a wider backlash against feminist action.

RACIAL SATIRE AND CHAPPELLE’S SHOW by KATHARINE P. ZAKOS Under the Direction of Mary Stuckey ABSTRACT This thesis examines Chappelle's Show’s use of racial satire to challenge dominant stereotypes and the effectiveness of that satire as a tool to achieve perspective by incongruity. I use a variation of D’Acci’s circuit of media study model to examine the institutional challenges and limitations on the show due to the context in which it was created, produced, and distributed; to interrogate the strategies employed by the show’s writers/creators to overcome these challenges through the performance of race; and to analyze the audience’s understanding of the use of racial satire through a reception study of the show’s audience. I argue that using satire often has the unintended consequence of crossing the line between “sending up” a behavior and supporting it, essentially becoming that which it is trying to discount, though this is not to say that its intrinsic value is therefore completely negated.

  • Beasts, Burgers, and Hummers: Meat and the Crisis of Masculinity in Contemporary Television Advertisements Richard A
    Environmental Communication Vol. 2, No. 3, November 2008, pp. 281Á301 Beasts, Burgers, and Hummers: Meat and the Crisis of Masculinity in Contemporary Television Advertisements Richard A. Rogers This paper examines three recent television advertisements that symbolically link meat not only with masculinity, but specifically with the ‘‘crisis in masculinity.’’ Using an ecofeminist lens, I engage in an intersectional analysis of these advertisements to demonstrate how they articulate the eating of meat with primitive masculinities as a response to perceived threats to hegemonic masculinity. These advertisements demon- strate that scholars interested in the status of masculinity must pay attention to the ‘‘threats’’ to masculinity posed by environmental and animal rights movements, and that scholars interested in environmental movements must pay attention to the role of masculinity in resisting moves toward sustainability. This analysis demonstrates the utility of ecofeminism in understanding the relationship between hegemonic masculinity and environmentalism while also pointing to the need for ecofeminism to continue to explore the implications of intersectionality for ecofeminist theory and criticism. Keywords: Ecofeminism; Environmentalism; Intersectionality; Masculinity; Meat Meat, specifically red meat and beef in particular, has long been associated with masculinity in Anglo-America and western Europe (Adams, 2003; Rifkin, 1993; Sobal, 2005). From literature to everyday speech, from art to advertising, the articulation of hegemonic masculinity with the consumption of red meat is pervasive (Adams, 2003; Heinz & Lee, 1998). It comes as no surprise, therefore, that 2006 and 2007 offered television viewers a host of advertisements linking meat, beef specifically, with masculinity. Burger King, Del Taco, Hummer (GM), Jack in the Box, Quiznos, TGI Fridays, and others played on the gendering of red meat, and bloggers called Richard A.

  • Queer Performance in the Post-Millennial Scramble
    QUEER PERFORMANCE IN THE POST-MILLENNIAL SCRAMBLE MOYNAN KING A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN THEATRE AND PERFORMANCE STUDIES YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO November 2019 © Moynan King, 2019 ii Abstract The subject of this dissertation is contemporary queer feminist performance in Canada. My practice-informed research takes a unique approach to studying performance through what I call the “queer performance scramble”—a term that draws on the multiple meanings of “scramble” to understand the aesthetics of queer performance and its challenges to stable conceptions of both identity and temporality. I investigate works that are happening now and that scramble the sticky elements of their own cultural constructions and queer temporalities. The temporal turn in queer theory supports my engagement with the effects of temporality, performativity, and history on queer performance, and, conversely, the effects of queer performance on time. I am equally interested in the formal and material dimensions of the work I study. I look to the content, style, material conditions, and social scenes of queer feminist performance from the perspective of both an academic and an artist to make accessible work that is often marginalized within Canadian cultural production ecology. Chapter 1 investigates queer feminist hauntings with an analysis of Allyson Mitchell and Deirdre Logue’s Killjoy’s Kastle: A Lesbian Feminist Haunted House. Chapter 2 argues that cabaret is the primary site for queer feminist performance in Canada, and when framed as a methodological problem/solution matrix, both the celebratory and limiting potential of the form can be explored.
