  • White Supremacist Prison Gangs in the United States a Preliminary Inventory Introduction
    White Supremacist Prison Gangs in the United States A Preliminary Inventory Introduction With rising numbers and an increasing geographical spread, for some years white supremacist prison gangs have constitut- ed the fastest-growing segment of the white supremacist movement in the United States. While some other segments, such as neo-Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan, have suffered stagnation or even decline, white supremacist prison gangs have steadily been growing in numbers and reach, accompanied by a related rise in crime and violence. What is more, though they are called “prison gangs,” gangs like the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas, Aryan Circle, European Kindred and others, are just as active on the streets of America as they are behind bars. They plague not simply other inmates, but also local communities across the United States, from California to New Hampshire, Washington to Florida. For example, between 2000 and 2015, one single white supremacist prison gang, the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas, was responsible for at least 33 murders in communities across Texas. Behind these killings were a variety of motivations, including traditional criminal motives, gang-related murders, internal killings of suspected informants or rules-breakers, and hate-related motives directed against minorities. These murders didn’t take place behind bars—they occurred in the streets, homes and businesses of cities and towns across the Lone Star State. When people hear the term “prison gang,” they often assume that such gang members plague only other prisoners, or perhaps also corrections personnel. They certainly do represent a threat to inmates, many of whom have fallen prey to their violent attacks.

  • Change Is Good!
    Winter 2014 Camp Akeela SM Circular A Letter from Debbie and Eric Change Is Good! Dear Campers, We’ve had big changes in our lives since the end of the last camp season. Most significant was the arrival of our daughter, Julia, in September. Having a new baby presents challenges of course: being up in the middle of the night, planning grocery store trips around nap times, trying to stay healthy! It also has its amazing side: Margo ADORES being a big sister and is clearly Julia’s favorite person to be with. Julia makes us all laugh and is a very cuddly and happy baby. Change is always hard – even when it’s fun. It’s hard to adjust to new experiences but we usually find that after a short time, we can’t imagine the way life used to be. We think that’s exactly the way first-time campers feel about Akeela! We had the chance to meet a prospective camper last week on the internet. When we asked him how he felt about coming to camp for the first time, he said, “Well, I’m worried – I don’t do well with change.” It’s an honest answer we hear very often. We think most people are comfortable sticking with what they know. It is far less complicated to lead a life that is very predictable. Routines make us feel safe and secure. When we know what to expect, we don’t have to worry that we will do the wrong thing, or that we won’t be able to cope if things are hard.

  • Skins and the Impossibility of Youth Television
    Skins and the impossibility of youth television David Buckingham This essay is part of a larger project, Growing Up Modern: Childhood, Youth and Popular Culture Since 1945. More information about the project, and illustrated versions of all the essays, can be found at: https://davidbuckingham.net/growing-up-modern/. In 2007, the UK media regulator Ofcom published an extensive report entitled The Future of Children’s Television Programming. The report was partly a response to growing concerns about the threats to specialized children’s programming posed by the advent of a more commercialized and globalised media environment. However, it argued that the impact of these developments was crucially dependent upon the age group. Programming for pre-schoolers and younger children was found to be faring fairly well, although there were concerns about the range and diversity of programming, and the fate of UK domestic production in particular. Nevertheless, the impact was more significant for older children, and particularly for teenagers. The report was not optimistic about the future provision of specialist programming for these age groups, particularly in the case of factual programmes and UK- produced original drama. The problems here were partly a consequence of the changing economy of the television industry, and partly of the changing behaviour of young people themselves. As the report suggested, there has always been less specialized television provided for younger teenagers, who tend to watch what it called ‘aspirational’ programming aimed at adults. Particularly in a globalised media market, there may be little money to be made in targeting this age group specifically.

It is also the most common format for young emerging filmmakers to develop their voice and craftsmanship as well as to establish their marketability. IF/Then program was conceptualized by Tribeca Film Institute to provide special mentorship to filmmakers from story-rich regions so they can realize the potentials of their story while maximizing revenues and international outreach. Amelia Hapsari PROGRAM DIRECTOR In 2020, IF/Then Southeast Asia has selected 19 nominees from In-Docs 8 countries. This year through the support of the U.S. Embassy in Indonesia, In-Docs and Tribeca Film Institute conduct a four-day mentorship for IF/Then nominees and a two-day pitching forum attended by international industry professionals and experts. Due to COVID-19, all mentoring and pitching sessions are conducted online. Each nominee also receives a grant of USD 1,000 to help them navigate the uncertainty during the global pandemic while developing their projects and pivoting to the emerging new normal. IF/Then Southeast Asia began in 2018 with a focus on developing Chloe Gbai best talents, building a supportive ecosystem, expanding DIRECTOR OF IF/THEN outreach, and continuous learning.

  • Exploring Narratives of Women Who Shifted from a Heterosexual to a Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Queer, And/Or Unlabeled Identity
    THINKING OTHERWISE: EXPLORING NARRATIVES OF WOMEN WHO SHIFTED FROM A HETEROSEXUAL TO A LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, QUEER, AND/OR UNLABELED IDENTITY Clare Lemke A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2015 Committee: Bill Albertini, Advisor Ellen W. Gorsevski Graduate Faculty Representative Sandra Faulkner Ellen Berry ii ABSTRACT Bill Albertini, Advisor Stories about adult women shifting from a heterosexual identity to a lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, and/or unlabeled identity emerge in many areas of contemporary U.S. culture, including anthologies of personal narratives, self-help books, women’s magazines, talk shows, blogs, major network news outlets, and academic scholarship. This dissertation explores discourse about once-heterosexual-identified women to better understand contemporary U.S. culture. Using a mixed methods approach involving textual analysis and focus groups, I argue that stories about women shifting sexual identities during adulthood illuminate assumptions and contradictions shaping broader thinking about LGBQ sexualities, women’s sexualities, and sexual fluidity in the U.S. Each chapter is organized around a significant concept influencing the construction of contemporary American sexualities. These concepts include the notion that LGBTQ people are “born this way”; the increasingly popular idea that women love “the person, not the gender”; the formative role of whiteness and middle class identity in stories about women coming out in midlife; and the concept of normalcy as it determines LGBTQ people’s relationship to the nation. The topic of once-heterosexual-identified women has yet to be extensively studied with a cultural studies methodology.

  • Challenges to Written Culture Naomi S. Baron American University Washington, DC USA He Was a Savvy Merchant A
    Gresham’s Ghost: Challenges to Written Culture Naomi S. Baron American University Washington, DC USA He was a savvy merchant and financier, counselor to royalty, but not above maneuvering for personal gain. Sir Thomas Gresham, founder of the British Royal Exchange and of Gresham College, is best known for the advice he offered Queen Elizabeth I upon her ascension to the throne in 1558. “The good and bad coin,” he wrote, “cannot circulate together” (Selgin). That is, good coinage – coins that had been struck with the proper amount of precious metals and had not been debased by users scraping off shavings – would be hoarded. Bad money (as we say today) drives good money out of circulation. People would tend to circulate only the “bad,” debased coins, even though both bore the same face value. Gresham’s advice to Elizabeth was timely, since her predecessors, Henry VIII and Edward VI, had been notorious for reducing the amount of silver in English coinage, with unfortunate financial results. 2 “Good” coins were sent abroad for international trade, where they were more highly valued than at home. For “coin” substitute “writing,” and replace the word “economy” with “written culture.” The growth of online and mobile technologies has fostered a steady increase in the amount of writing we do. Where previously we spoke face-to-face or picked up the (landline) telephone, we now commonly write email, instant messages, or text messages. We air our thoughts and knowledge on listservs, in blogs, on Facebook, and on Wikipedia. The sheer amount of writing we are churning out is staggering.
