  • Spirit of Black Descendant Encouragement As Reflected in Black Gold Lyric by Esperanza Spalding
    Spirit of Black Descendant Encouragement as Reflected in Black Gold Lyric by Esperanza Spalding a Journal by Renanda Prima Tyasa [A2B009054] English Department Faculty of Humanities Diponegoro University 2013 CHAPTER 1 ± Introduction The slavery era of black people from the 17th until 20th century had inherited wounds toward the descendants of black people. After Civil War (1861-1865), slavery was abolished by the combination of /incoln‘s Emancipation 3roclamation and the 13th Amendment to the Constitution in 1865. However, although the Blacks were no longer slaves, they were still treated as second class citizens and continued to live in poor conditions without many chances to make their life better. It would take a long time before their life would be improved. However today, people of black descendants in the United States are able to blend with society. Indeed, their presence is considered better these days. However, they factually are not totally free from discrimination. News is reporting about discriminations that are faced by black descendants nowadays. As for example is the killing plan that is conducted by white supremacist group Ku Klux Klan that put target into President Barack Obama. News canal thesun.co.uk published it on June 21st, 2013. It is said, Fanatics Glendon Scott Crawford, 49, and Eric Feight, 54, were nicked after a six- month FBI undercover operation. Mr Obama was among those said to have been targeted by the futuristic device that would have fired lethal doses of radiation. Engineer Crawford, a member of the white supremacist group the Ku Klux Klan, told undercover agents his design was —Hiroshima on a light switch“.

  • MGMC Program
    Midwest Graduate Music Consortium 2021: TIMELY CONVERSATIONS Hosted by the Society for Music Research at the University of Michigan April 10–11, 2021 Virtual, EDT (GMT -4) FROM THE ORGANIZERS Welcome to the Midwest Graduate Music Consortium’s 2021 Conference, “Timely Conversations!” We are delighted to have you join us for this exciting weekend of scholarship, musical performance, and professional interaction—all via remote technology and from the comfort of your own homes. Our theme, “Timely Conversations,” has inspired graduate students from all over the world to produce scholarship and new music in response to the varied conversations that have taken place over the past year about racial injustice, inequality, and the effects of a global pandemic on universities, research, and societies—all of which raise questions about accessibility, prejudice, and power dynamics in our work. These papers and compositions touch on a wide range of topics such as, but certainly not limited to, institutional and humanitarian crises; music during social upheaval; accessibility in music scholarship and pedagogy; diversifying the music syllabus; the effects of social distancing on research, performing, and teaching; and thinking about the way music scholarship and pedagogy engages with race and other identities. We are honored to host this year’s keynote speaker, Dr. Shana Redmond, and to hear her talk titled “Black Antiphonal Life.” It is our hope that the timely conversations we have at MGMC 2021 will stimulate productive conversation among attendees and serve as a tipping point for the future of music scholarship. In this document, you will find the conference schedule, our keynote speaker’s biography, abstracts for the papers that will be presented, information about the New Music Concert and program notes for the pieces to be performed, and a list of the many volunteers without whose help we could not have hosted this event.

  • Lineage Curated by Julia Bullock Soundbox
    LINEAGE CURATED BY JULIA BULLOCK SOUNDBOX 1 julia bullock on lineage “I’ve found that musicians often share a lot about the various influences in their lives— whether they be historical, political, philosophical, personal, or based on other mediums of art. They let diverse influences not only impact their work, but find ways to let them register explicitly. It’s like musicians are hyper conscious of their lineage—they honor it and value it. So, as I continue to follow along the path and legacy of artists that came before me, lineage has become increasingly important—it’s a part of knowing from where I originated and letting that inform where I envision myself going. The musicians on this SoundBox program could not make music all together in one place, or even at one time, but the very nature of this program—which links material that spans across almost 900 years—captures an audio and visual snapshot of how lineage can inform, influence, impact, and express itself in a musical context.” 2 Esa-Pekka Salonen SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY MUSIC DIRECTOR San Francisco Symphony Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen has, through his many high-profile conducting roles and work as a leading composer, shaped a unique vision for the present and future of the contemporary symphony orchestra. Salonen is currently the Principal Conductor & Artistic Advisor for London’s Philharmonia Orchestra and is Artist in Association at the Finnish National Opera and Ballet. He is a member of the faculty of the Colburn School in Los Angeles, where he developed and directs the pre-professional Negaunee Conducting Program.
