“Her Name Was” “HER NAME WAS” Sergio Almendariz Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF FINE ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2018 APPROVED: Tania Khalaf, Committee Chair Kathleen Hobson, Committee Member Eugene Martin, Committee Member and Chair of the Department of Media Arts David Holdeman, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences Victor Prybutok, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Almendariz, Sergio. “Her Name Was.” Master of Fine Arts (Documentary Production and Studies), August 2018, 60 pp., references, 3 titles. Her Name Was is an examination of the oppression of transgender people in a society that is built on the nominalization of cisgender people, those who gender matchers their sex assigned at birth, and how this oppression lends itself to violence. In the summer of 2015, the body of Shade Schuler, an African American transgender woman, was found in a field outside of Dallas, Texas. Ms. Shade is part of an alarming epidemic of escalating levels of targeted violence against the transgender community. This documentary pulls back the curtain as it captures the feelings and struggles of the transgender community as they attempt to navigate and survive in a cis dominating society.

Introduction and Description In Dallas, Texas during the scorching summer heat of 2015, a body was dumped in a field. Three days later, on July 29, the Dallas Police discovered the body which had been so severely decomposed that no identification was possible. Her name was Shade Schuler, a 22- year-old transgender woman of color, or Ms. Shade, as she was commonly known as in the LGBTQ community in Dallas, Texas. Despite being discovered in women’s clothing, a wig, and fingernail extensions with pink tips, she was identified by the police as male and was continuously misgendered throughout the initial investigation. It was through the investigative efforts of Nell Gaither, and several other members of the Trans Pride Initiative, that they were able to verify the gender identity of Shade Schuler and have local news outlets properly report it. Nell Gaither also spoke out about her being the 13th transgender woman of color murdered in the United States that year, already matching the total of 2014. Two years later, Ms. Shade’s case went cold and the number of transgender women of color being murdered has increased at a shockingly rapid

    The Independent Film Channel Presents: An Orchard Films Production Fabulous! The Story of Queer Cinema Directed and Produced by Lisa Ades & Lesli Klainberg PUBLICITY AND ARTWORK, PLEASE CONTACT: Sophie Evans Manager, Consumer PR Kristen Andersen – PR Coordinator T: (917) 542-6336 T: (917) 542-6339 E: [email protected] E: [email protected] Synopsis: Fabulous! The Story of Queer Cinema explores the emergence of gay and lesbian films from the beginning of the gay rights movement in the 1960s to the “New Queer Cinema” of the 90s, the proliferation and influence of gay and lesbian films festivals, the discovery by the film business of the gay market; the explosion of gay images in the mainstream media and the current phenomenon of all things gay. The story of gay and lesbian cinema is closely related to the world surrounding it, and the use of popular culture is a backdrop against which the film examines important cultural, political and social moments- and movements that intersect with gay life. “Sex on the screen means something different for gay and lesbian audiences than for straight audiences because we’ve never been allowed to see it. If bodies that we can’t imagine being together are together, if women are rolling around in bed, if men are doing something more in the locker room than just simply taking a shower…all of these groundbreaking scenes of explicit sexuality have a meaning and a power that go beyond similar scenes for heterosexuals. It has to be there for audiences because for so long we were told ‘Oh no, they aren’t really gay because we have no proof that they ever did that’ there’s a sense that’s like – show me the money!” - B.

  • The Unknown Known by Errol Morris: Quebec Premiere at Docville Thursday, April 24, 8 P.M., Cinéma Excentris
    PRESS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION The Unknown Known by Errol Morris: Quebec premiere at Docville Thursday, April 24, 8 p.m., Cinéma Excentris Montreal, Thursday, April 10, 2014 – The Montreal International Documentary Festival (RIDM) is proud to present the Quebec premiere of The Unknown Known by Errol Morris, the fourth monthly Docville screening of 2014. Morris is the internationally acclaimed director of such films as The Fog of War and The Thin Blue Line. In 2003, Errol Morris won the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature for The Fog of War, in which former U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara reflected on his career. A decade later, the filmmaker interviewed Donald Rumsfeld, who held the same position under George W. Bush. Armed with thousands of memos written by Rumsfeld during his long White House career (which began during the Nixon/Ford administration), Morris questions the controversial political figure on thorny topics like the invasion of Iraq under false pretences and the use of torture at Abu Ghraib. Staring down the camera without ever losing his aloof smile, Rumsfeld tackles every question with rhetorical poise as hypnotic as the film’s music, by Danny Elfman. Shown at the Venice, Telluride and Toronto festivals, The Unknown Known is a gripping verbal duel that leaves the historical truth more elusive than ever. THE UNKNOWN KNOWN Directed by Errol Morris. United States. 2013. 103 min. In English. Thursday, April 24, 8 p.m., Cinéma Excentris The film is distributed by Les Films Séville, an Entertainment One company. Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TcZ2‐sEb3o Online ticket purchase: https://excentris.ticketacces.net/fr/organisation/representations/index.cfm?EvenementID=511 Since 2012, the RIDM’s Docville series, presented on the last Thursday of every month, has given audiences the chance to see Montreal premieres of excellent documentaries that have enjoyed recent success at the world’s most prestigious festivals.

    JACOLBY SATTERWHITE: Blessed Avenue by Osman Can Yerebakan April 4th, 2018 GAVIN BROWN’S ENTERPRISE | MARCH, 10 – MAY 6, 2018 Jacolby Satterwhite, Blessed Avenue, 2018. 3D animation and video, 19:20. Edition of 5 with 2 APs. Courtesy Gavin Brown’s enterprise, New York/ Rome. On the third floor of an unassuming Chinatown building, a dark hallway leads to Blessed Avenue, Jacolby Satterwhite’s psychedelic quest into queer desire and memory, a twenty- minute digital animation created with Maya computer software. In order to do justice to the film’s bizarre rituals performed by Juliana Huxtable, Lourdes Leon Ciccone, and DeSe Escobar alongside Satterwhite, Gavin Brown’s enterprise orchestrated the gallery similar to an underground club, from glow-sticks occasionally available at the entrance to the pitch-dark atmosphere elevating the film’s visual and audial impact. The exhibition's titular piece runs on a large, two-sided screen, which emanates enough light to let visitors inspect a pop-up retail installation that displays merchandise complimenting the film. Including cameos by aforementioned “downtown figures” alongside many others, Blessed Avenue is a heady plunge into an otherworldly realm where computer aesthetics merge with an array of bodily postures from bondage routines to nocturnal choreographies. We watch Satterwhite and his friends act out the power dynamics embedded in S&M with the physical vigor of ballroom dancing. The back drop to the party is a digital universe Satterwhite illustrated based on sketches made by his late mother Patricia—a self-made artist who found solace in art as a respite from schizophrenia—created over the years with the hope of selling them on QVC.

McNamara’s death on 6 July 2009, at age 93, dozens of obituaries appeared, most of them telling the same basic story. McNamara was portrayed as an American variant of Robert Louis Stevenson’s Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, a bright and successful man but also a bad and destructive man whose pursuit of power and colossal arrogance led America and the world into the quagmire of the Vietnam War. First, Dr. Jekyll. A quick perusal of McNamara’s life seems initially to prove that the so-called “Horatio Alger Myth” is sometimes reality: rags to riches, obscurity to fame, blue collar to the corridors of power.

We will focus on how notions of human difference shape modes of policing and subjugating racialized and gendered people, and, conversely, how these groups take up difference as a rallying point of resistance. This course will provide conceptual tools for understanding contemporary social, cultural, and political debates and analyzing visual culture. 2 Through taking this class you will learn: • How gender organizes our world. • How gender and racial categories have been constructed historically. • How social constructs of race, gender, class, and sexuality produce marginalized populations and social inequalities. • How people marginalized by social formations of gender, race, class, and sexuality mobilize knowledge production, activism, art and cultural production to achieve social transformation. • How to compare, contrast, and evaluate the claims of feminist and queer thinkers from different periods and social locations. • How art and popular cultures are significant arenas where social formations of race, gender, and sexuality are contested.
