Originally published in California Arts and Architecture, August 1941 and reprinted in Kaiso!: Writings by and about Katherine Dunham (2005). Copyright © 2005 by Katherine Dunham. Used by permission of the Estate of Katherine Dunham. Katherine Dunham (1909–2006) What a life! Katherine Dunham was a formidable dancer, an irre- pressible choreographer, a driven social activist, a groundbreaking ethnologist and anthropologist, a serial autobiographer, an interna- tional star, an inspiration, a scandal (banned in Boston!), and a model for generations of African American performers. It’s surprising that she found time to die, even if it was at the age of ninety- six. She starred as Georgia Brown in George Balanchine’s Broadway musical Cabin in the Sky, the show that Ethel Waters stopped with “Taking a Chance on Love.” (Lena Horne played Georgia in the movie.) She went on a forty- seven-day hunger strike to protest American policies toward Haitian refugees. (Speaking of Haiti, she became a priestess of the Vaudon reli- gion there.) She choreographed a new production of Aïda at the Met, featuring Leontyne Price. For decades, she toured the world with her Katherine Dunham Dance Company, mostly performing revues she created with names like Bal Nègre and Caribbean Rhapsody. (Danc- ers affiliated with Dunham’s company include Eartha Kitt, Janet Col- lins, and Talley Beatty.) She married the artist and scenic designer John Pratt, her collaborator on her shows as well, and they adopted a French baby.

  • Welcome Letter 2013 Samuel H. Scripps American Dance Festival
    Welcome Letter 2013 Samuel H. Scripps American Dance Festival Award Lin Hwai-min The ADF wishes to thank the late Samuel H. Scripps, whose generosity made possible the annual $50,000 Samuel H. Scripps American Dance Festival Award. The Award was established in 1981 as the first of its kind and honors chorographers who have dedicated their lives and talent to the creation of modern dance. The continuation of the award is made possible through the SHS Foundation and its President, Richard E. Feldman. Celebrated choreographer, director, and educator Lin Hwai-min will be presented with the 2013 Award by Joseph V. Melillo in a special ceremony on Saturday, July 27th at 8:00 pm, prior to the Forces of Dance performance at the Durham Performing Arts Center. The program will also include a performance of the solo from Lin Hwai-min’s 1998 work Moon Water, performed by Cloud Gate Dance Theatre dancer Chou Chang-ning. Mr. Lin’s fearless zeal for the art form has established him as one of the most dynamic and innovative choreographers today. His illustrious career as a choreographer has spanned over four decades and has earned him international praise for his impact on Chinese modern dance. He is the founder, choreographer, and artistic director of both Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan (founded in 1973) and Cloud Gate 2 (founded in 1992), and his choreography continues to be presented throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia. While his works often draw inspiration from traditional elements of Asian culture and aesthetics, his choreographic brilliance continues to push boundaries and redefine the art form.

RESUMO: Comportamento de forrageio do maçarico-de-bico-virado Limosa haemastica (Aves, Scolopacidae) em ocasiões com perturbação e sem perturbação humana na costa Atlântica do Brasil. O maçarico-de-bico-virado, Limosa haemastica é considerado uma das aves pernaltas mais pouco estudadas que se reproduzem na América do Norte. Durante a migração, esta espécie utiliza poucas escalas até alcançar áreas de invernada no sul da América do Sul. Desta forma, estudos biológicos no decorrer de sua rota de migração são escassos. O foco deste artigo foi analisar o comportamento de forrageio de três indivíduos migrantes do maçarico-de-bico-virado que fizeram escala em áreas de entre-marés da costa sul do estado de São Paulo. Eu utilizei uma câmera digital para filmar e quantificar precisamente as técnicas de forrageio, o tempo de forrageio em hábitats e as distâncias percorridas pelas aves.

  • Characterization of Small-Scale Fisheries in the Camamu-Almada Basin, Southeast State of Bahia, Brazil Souza, TCM*
    Characterization of small-scale fisheries in the Camamu-Almada basin, southeast state of Bahia, Brazil Souza, TCM*. and Petrere-Jr, M.* Departamento de Ecologia, Universidade Estadual Paulista – UNESP, CP 199, CEP 13506-900, Rio Claro, SP, Brazil *e-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Received August 28, 2006 – Accepted February 22, 2007– Distributed November 30, 2008 (With 3 figures) Abstract In the Camamu-Almada basin, marine fishery is exclusively small-scale, with several structural deficiencies such as boats with low or absent navigational technology, lack of credit and low income. Local fishers complain that shrimp and lobster trawling fishing is the main factor responsible for low stock abundance, but they still persist in these activities as these two species command the highest market prices. So they feel that the target species are already over-fished. We suggest that proper management action, alternative ways of income generation and the payment of job insurance would help to mitigate the problem. Keywords: tropical small-scale marine fisheries, tropical marine fishes, southeast state of Bahia, Brazil. Caracterização das pescarias de pequena-escala na bacia de Camamu-Almada no sudeste da Bahia, Brasil Resumo Na bacia Camamu-Almada, as pescarias marinhas são exclusivamente de pequena-escala, com várias deficiências estruturais: com barcos quase sem nenhuma tecnologia de auxílio à navegação, falta de crédito e baixa lucratividade. Os pescadores locais reclamam que a pesca de arrasto dirigida a camarões e lagosta é a principal responsável pela baixa abundância dos estoques preferenciais, mas como eles ainda têm alto preço no mercado, essa estratégia de pesca ainda persiste.

However, in the earlier decades of the twentieth century black women were daily deflecting slings and arrows thrown at them from all sides. Arising out of this milieu of adversity were Josephine Baker, Katherine Dunham, and Pearl Primus, performing artists whose success depended upon a willingness to innovate, to adapt to changing times, and to recognize and seize opportunities when and where they arose. Baker introduced her performing skills to New York audiences in the 1920s, followed by Dunham in the 1930s, and Primus in the 1940s. Although these decades resulted in an outpouring of cultural and artistic experimentation, for performing artists daring to cross traditional boundaries of gender and race, the obstacles were significant.

    Revista Latino-Americana de História, vol. 08, nº. 22 – ago./dez. de 2019 ISSN 2238-0620 DO FEIJÃO COM TOUCINHO AO “VIRADO À PAULISTA”: O PERCURSO SIMBÓLICO DE UMA RECEITA NA FORMAÇÃO DE UM PATRIMÔNIO CULINÁRIO DE SÃO PAULO FROM “FEIJÃO COM TOUCINHO” TO THE “VIRADO À PAULISTA”: SYMBOLIC PATHS OF A RECIPE IN THE FORMATION OF A SÃO PAULO’S FOOD HERITAGE Viviane Soares Aguiar* Resumo: Uma das poucas receitas conhecidas com o complemento “paulista” em seu nome, o virado figura em registros que, dos relatos sobre bandeiras e monções, chegam até o presente, com sua recente promoção a patrimônio cultural imaterial de São Paulo. Esta trajetória, se já foi estudada como parte de uma tradição estadual, ainda carece de uma discussão sobre seu percurso simbólico em ensaios, obras literárias e livros de receitas regionais. Com o objetivo de analisar a “biografia” do virado à paulista sob a perspectiva não das práticas domésticas, mas de narrativas construídas pela intelectualidade, este artigo acompanha a participação da receita na formação de um imaginário identitário para São Paulo, intentando abordar os meandros de eleição dela como um “prato típico” e, enfim, como um patrimônio oficial. Pretende-se, com isso, levantar questões sobre os processos de criação das cozinhas regionais e de suas receitas emblemáticas no Brasil, muitas vezes tomados como naturais e como verdades incontestáveis. Palavras-chave: Cozinha paulista. Patrimônio culinário. História da alimentação. Abstract: One of the few known recipes with the “paulista” complement in its name, the “virado” emerges in reports on colonial expeditions leaded by “bandeirantes” to current considerations, including its recent promotion as a São Paulo’s intangible cultural heritage.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.
