Contact: [email protected] Suburban Captivity Narratives: Feminism, Domesticity, and the Liberation of the American Housewife Megan Behrent On February 4, 1974, the heiress Patricia Hearst—granddaughter of the media mogul William Randolph Hearst—was kidnapped from her home in Berkeley, California. 1 In reporting the story, the media reproduced a trope even older than the U.S. itself: a captivity narrative. To do so, they con - jured an image of racially other captors defiling a white woman’s body. The New York Times describes Hearst being carried off “half naked” by “two black men” (W. Turner), despite the fact that only one of the abduc - tors was African-American. From the earliest recounting of the story, Hearst was sexualized and her captors racialized. The abduction was por - trayed as an intrusion into the domestic space, with Hearst’s fiancé brutal - ized as she was removed from their home. The most widely used image of Hearst was one of idyllic bourgeois domesticity, cropped from the an - nouncement of her engagement in the media—which, ironically, provided her would-be captors with the address to the couple’s Berkeley home.

  • The SLA Was Almost a Cultural Test Tube, a Specimen Sample from a Bitter Side of the Sixties That Marched Apace After Virtually All Their Comrades Veered Aside
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE The End of an Era: The Rise of the Symbionese Liberation Army and Fall of the New Left A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History by Gregory Garth Cumming December 2010 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Clifford Trafzer, Chairperson Dr. Molly McGarry Dr. Ralph L. Crowder Copyright by Gregory Garth Cumming 2010 The Dissertation of Gregory Garth Cumming is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside Acknowledgements A dissertation cannot be completed alone. All through the process I have received a great deal of encouragement. I want to thank Professor Molly McGarry and Professor Ralph Crowder for their insightful comments during the oral exams. A special thanks goes out to Dr. Clifford Trafzer who served as the Chair for my Dissertation Committee. His patience and guidance provided me the opportunity to realize my dream and complete my formal education. I also want to thank the Sayles family for their enduring friendship. Dr. Stephen Sayles increased my love of history and served as my mentor throughout my undergraduate studies. I am fortunate to be able to refer to both Dr. Trafzer and Dr. Sayles as my mentors. My parents always encouraged my academic pursuits, even when I had placed them on hold. Thank you for always believing in me and allowing me the opportunity to find my way. To my amazing wife Lupe and our children Taylor and Jake – thank you for allowing me the opportunity to “finish strong.” My studies have taken time away from the three of you and I appreciate what you have given up to allow me to reach this point.
