  • Akala – Rapper
    Akala – rapper Kingslee James McLean Daley (born 1 December 1983), better known by the stage name Akala, is an English rapper, journalist, author, poet, and political activist. Originally from Kentish Town, London he is the younger brother of rapper/vocalist Ms. Dynamite. In 2006, he was voted the Best Hip Hop Act at the MOBO Awards. He was awarded an honorary doctorate by the University of Brighton in 2018. He chose the stage name Akala, a Buddhist term for "Immovable”, and started releasing music in 2003 from his own independent music label, Illa State Records. He released his first mixtape, entitled The War Mixtape, in 2004. In 2006 he released his first album – It's Not a Rumour. This proved to be his breakthrough album, containing the single "Shakespeare" – a reference to his self-proclaimed title "The Black Shakespeare" – which made the BBC Radio 1 playlist. His work was recognised with the MOBO Award for Best Hip Hop Act. Additionally in 2006, a mixtape, A Little Darker, was released under the name "Illa State", featuring Akala and his sister, Ms. Dynamite, as well as cameo appearances by many other artists. Akala appeared for a live session on BBC Radio 1Xtra where he was challenged to come up with a rap containing as many Shakespeare play titles as he could manage. Akala wrote and performed a minute-long rap containing 27 different Shakespeare play titles in under half an hour. He later recorded these lyrics in the studio and turned it into the single "Comedy Tragedy History". In 2007 Akala followed up his breakthrough album with his Freedom Lasso album, containing the "Comedy Tragedy History" track.

  • Akala and the Empowering Potential of the Bard's Poetry
    Shakespeare in the “Gangsta’s Paradise”. Akala and the empowering potential of the Bard’s poetry by Marco Canani In 1995 Artis Leon Ivey Jr., the Afro-American rapper best known by his stage name Coolio, released one of his most popular hits, “Gangsta’s Paradise”. The song – which samples the chorus and instrumentation of Stevie Wonder’s “Pastime Paradise” (1976) – featured in the soundtrack of Dangerous Minds (1995), a motion picture based on Lou Anne Johnson’s autobiography, My Posse Don’t Do Homework (1992). Johnson, a former US Marine, played by Michelle Pfeiffer, lands a job as an English teacher in a school of unprivileged teenagers from a variety of ethnic backgrounds. Unfortunately, her tough experience in the Armed Forces does not come in handy as she struggles to keep a hold on the students, who are far busier coping with the hardship of poverty and exclusion – fighting in gangs, taking drugs, and hustling – than they are with their reading list. Just as she is about to lose hope and quit, Johnson devises the “Dylan/Dylan Contest”, a class competition that moves from a close-reading to an allegorical interpretation of such Bob Dylan’s songs as “Let Me Die in My Footsteps” (1963) and “Mr Tambourine Man” (1965), and Dylan Thomas’s poem “Do not go gentle into that good night” (1947). This teaching strategy proves successful in engaging her students, who eventually realize, to quote Bourdieu, that “ability or talent is itself the Saggi/Ensayos/Essais/Essays Will forever young! Shakespeare & Contemporary Culture – 11/2017 123 product of an investment of time and cultural capital” ([1983] 1997: 48).

As a ‘border practice’ that crosses and pushes boundaries, Live Art has been one of the most responsive ways in which artists have been addressing the shifting notion of borders and connected societal issues. From this perspective, the ephemerality, flexibility and resilience of Live Art become a privileged way to investigate urgent current political changes and struggles within and across borders.

  • Ethnicity, Race and Inequality in the UK
    “This is simply a must-read book for all those who want to understand the UK in and Inequality Race Ethnicity, racial inequalities in British society. It provides an up-to-date and convincing case that we have a long way to go in terms of achieving racial justice.” John Solomos, University of Warwick Available Open Access under CC-BY-NC licence. Fifty years after the establishment of the Runnymede Trust and the Race Relations Act of 1968, which sought to end discrimination in public life, this accessible book provides commentary by some of the UK’s foremost scholars of race and ethnicity on data relating to a wide range of sectors of society, including employment, health, education, criminal justice, housing and representation in the arts and media. It explores what progress has been made, identifies those areas where inequalities remain stubbornly resistant to change and asks how our thinking around race and ethnicity has changed in an era of Islamophobia, Brexit and an increasingly diverse population.

P.E. Polly Pallister-Wilkins Second Reader: dhr. dr. David Laws Word Count: 23889 1 2 Glossary The Met – Metropolitan Police COLP – City of London Police Scene – London-based community of actors that actively consumes and produces social and behavioural norms associated with grime music and the demographic of people that use grime music as a part of their identity in London. Grime’s socio-economic circumstances – Poverty, violence, drugs, segregation. Grime’s socio-political circumstances – Segregation, racial and aesthetic profiling, societal disregard, the harsh policing of the scene’s events. CCCS – Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies Locked off – Shut down Acknowledgements This research and thesis would not have been possible without the educated, informative and passionate voices of those within the London grime scene. Their understandings of their own circumstances reinforced the importance of this research for me, as a researcher, and London society. I was genuinely shocked in my interactions with these people about the sophisticated manner in which these people articulated themselves and interacted with me, an outsider. It is with this knowledge that I commend my interviewees for their willingness to speak and their vast knowledge. Finally, I’d like to thank dr. Polly Pallister-Wilkins for her willingness and ability to challenge my thinking, engaging with me in both the complex and seemingly trivial issues of this research project.

  • Special Issue on Shakespeare
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by MURAL - Maynooth University Research Archive Library SEN – special issue on Shakespeare <<Pre-print version>> ‘It’s William back from the dead’: Commemoration, Representation and Race in Akala’s Hip-Hop Shakespeare Stephen O’Neill (Maynooth University) Akala, Akala, wherefore art thou? I'm the black Shakespeare and The secret's out now Akala, ‘Comedy, History, Tragedy’ It's like Shakespeare with a nigga twist Akala, ‘Shakespeare’ Who’s allowed to be the custodian of knowledge and who isn’t Akala, ‘Hip-Hop and Shakespeare’, TEDx Talk. Recent work oriented towards race in Shakespeare studies has involved calls not just for critical attention to race as an ever-present, constitutive element of Shakespeare but also for modes of scholarship and criticism that actively promote critical race studies, diversity and inclusivity within the field. In her extraordinarily reflective study of race, Shakespeare and contemporary America, Ayanna Thompson describes her work ‘as an act of intervention and activism’ (2011: 128). Thompson urges the various constituencies of the book’s audience, including teachers, theatre practitioners and community activists to facilitate discussions about race both in and through Shakespeare, which she argues might be at its most valuable where it is destabilized or regarded as an ongoing process. Thompson’s call is echoed by Ruben Espinosa (2016), who showcases the important work within the field around race and diversity, yet also
