KEITH COUSINS Asst. News Editor A press conference was held Tuesday at the Edward R. Royball Learning Center in Los Angeles to urge Congress to pass the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors Act. If passed, the act will permit certain un- documented immigrant students to apply for temporary legal status if they have lived in the United States for at least five consecutive years. The U.S. Senate will vote on the act today. Speakers at the press conference included Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, Los Angeles Unified School District President Mon- ica Garcia and David Rattay, senior vice president of Education and Workforce for the LA Chamber of Commerce. “We have supported this act for years and years,” Rattay said. “Sooner or later we are going to get it right.” See DREAM ACT, page 2 MARK SAMALA / Photo Editor Oscar Vasquez holds up a sign during a rally in Downtown Los Angeles. The gathering was in support of the DREAM Act, which would provide undocumented immigrant students with a path to temporary legal status. Senators will vote on this act today.

The ancient pieces – including clay pots, a bronze Sumerian figurine and stone tablets etched with cuneiform writing – were returned to the Iraqi Na- tional Museum, resolving a real-life caper that began when many of them were stolen from a museum in the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk in 1991. U.S. authorities had recovered the pieces over several years, some of which had been put up for auction. NATIONAL Independent voters dissatisfied with Obama, poll says WASHINGTON – Independent voters, who broke heavily for President Barack Obama in the 2008 election, have swung dramatically in the other di- rection and are now deeply dissatisfied with his job performance, the country’s direction and the overall state of American politics, a new poll finds. A survey conducted for Independent Women’s Voice, a nonprofit, center- right group, also shows Republicans well-positioned to pick up independent voters in the midterm elections on Nov. 2. A total of 40 percent of independents planned to vote Republican, compared with 18 percent who said they would vote for a Democrat, according to the survey, part of which was conducted Sept. 15-16. At the same time, independents are proving sympathetic to the “tea party” movement. A total of 45 percent said they had a favorable view of the tea party, compared with 35 percent with an unfavorable view. STATE DREAM ACT: TO BE VOTED ON IN SENATE TODAY ...

Geoffrey Grec/C Ph.D. Professor of English Sarita Cannon, Ph.D. Associate Professor of English ALTERNATIVE PERSPECTIVES OF AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURE AND REPRESENTATION IN THE WORKS OF ISHMAEL REED Jason Andrew JackI San Francisco, California 2018 This thesis demonstrates the ways in which Ishmael Reed proposes incisive countemarratives to the hegemonic master narratives that perpetuate degrading misportrayals of Afro American culture in the historical record and mainstream news and entertainment media of the United States. Many critics and readers have responded reductively to Reed’s work by hastily dismissing his proposals, thereby disallowing thoughtful critical engagement with Reed’s views as put forth in his fiction and non­ fiction writing. The study that follows asserts that Reed’s corpus deserves more thoughtful critical and public recognition than it has received thus far. To that end, I argue that a critical re-exploration of his fiction and non-fiction writing would yield profound contributions to the ongoing national dialogue on race relations in America.

Collin Chua was also very helpful during a period when Tony was on leave; thank you, Collin. Tony Mitchell and Kim Poole read the final draft of the thesis and provided some valuable and timely feedback. Cheers. Ian Collinson, Michelle Phillipov and Diana Springford each recommended readings; Zac Dadic sent some hard to find recordings to me from interstate; Andrew Khedoori offered me a show at 2SER-FM, where I learnt about some of the artists in this study, and where I had the good fortune to interview Dawn McCarthy; and Brendan Smyly and Diana Blom are valued colleagues of mine at University of Western Sydney who have consistently been up for robust discussions of research matters. Many thanks to you all. My friend Stephen Creswell’s amazing record collection has been readily available to me and has proved an invaluable resource. A hearty thanks! And most significant has been the support of my partner Zoë. Thanks and love to you for the many ways you helped to create a space where this research might take place.

  • Cool Music Scene: Louisville, Kentucky
    Print http://www.gibson.com/en%2Dus/Print/?PrintAliasPath=/en-us/Lifestyle... Cool Music Scene: Louisville, Kentucky Jonah Bayer | 02.21.2008 Forget about Seattle or Brooklyn. Over the past few decades Louisville, Kentucky, has quietly constructed one of the strongest music scenes in the country. Check out a few of the city’s most popular acts as well as a couple of newcomers. My Morning Jacket My Morning Jacket are perhaps the biggest band from Louisville, Kentucky, in the past decade—and the only band we know of that can unite jam band fanatics, indie rock purists, and classic rock enthusiasts alike. While all of the band’s albums are stellar, we recommend checking out their breakthrough 2003 album It Still Moves, which features “One Big Holiday,” a song that can be considered the “Free Bird” for the iTunes generation. Oh, and if that doesn’t impress you, Netflix a copy of their live DVD Okonokos, which beautifully showcases the cinematic grandeur of the band’s live performances. 1 of 4 2/25/2008 12:57 PM Print http://www.gibson.com/en%2Dus/Print/?PrintAliasPath=/en-us/Lifestyle... VHS Or Beta Like all great scenes, the Louisville music community is extremely incestuous. In fact, My Morning Jacket’s guitarists Jim James and Carl Broemel both guest star on VHS Or Beta’s latest album Bring On the Comments. That’s not to say that the bands sound the same—VHS Or Beta’s dance-influenced rock jams are more at home in a trance club setting than the Burning Man festival—but both acts have successfully elbowed aside any genre restrictions and helped to unite seemingly disparate scenes with their music.
