  • Samoan Submission Machines
    Samoan Submission Machines: Grappling with Representations of Samoan Identity in Professional Wrestling Theo Plothe1 Savannah State University [email protected] Amongst the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. The discussion of Samoan identity in the context of sport has examined Maori identity and masculinity in New Zealand, among other topics, but there has yet to be work which considers Samoans within professional wrestling. This research investigates Samoan identity through a content analysis of televised wrestling matches. This research identifies six primary stereotypes under which Samoan identity is portrayed. These portrayals of Samoan characters, I argue, flatten the representation of this ethnic group within wrestling and culture at large. Keywords: Samoans, identity, representation, gimmicks Introduction Among the myriad of characters to step foot in the squared circle, perhaps no ethnic group has been as celebrated or marginalized as the Samoans who have made their names in professional wrestling. This research investigates the identity of Samoans within professional wrestling, and the different ways they are constructed and presented to audiences. “Gimmicks,” characters portrayed by a wrestler “resulting in the sum of fictional elements, attire and wrestling ability” (Oliva and Calleja 3) utilized by Samoans have run the gamut from the wild uncivilized savage, to the sumo (both in villainous Japanese and comically absurd iterations), to the ultra-cool mogul who wears silk shirts and fancy shoes. Their ability to cut promos, an important facet of the modern gimmick allowing wrestlers to address their opponents and storylines, varies widely as well, but all lie within their Samoan identity.

    PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING, SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT AND THE LIMINAL EXPERIENCE IN AMERICAN CULTURE By AARON D, FEIGENBAUM A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2000 Copyright 2000 by Aaron D. Feigenbaum ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There are many people who have helped me along the way, and I would like to express my appreciation to all of them. I would like to begin by thanking the members of my committee - Dr. Heather Gibson, Dr. Amitava Kumar, Dr. Norman Market, and Dr. Anthony Oliver-Smith - for all their help.

  • Carson Mansion in Eureka, California
    Carson Mansion in Eureka, California Mount San Jacinto in California Call it Gothic, call it a fairy tale, the Carson Mansion is one of the few pieces of architecture in the world that manages to baffle its viewers about its style. With French, Italian and Gothic elements, this mansion located in Eureka, California showcases a peculiar American style of architecture. In fact, its curious style has managed to influence the architecture of its neighborhood buildings as well. Lumber tycoon William Carson is believed to have said, “If I build it poorly, they would say that I was a damned miser; if I build it expensively, they will say I'm a show off; guess I'll just build it to suit myself.” A three-storey structure with 18 rooms, the Carson Mansion, constructed between 1884 and 1885 by a hundred men, also contains a tower and a basement. Well-known Californian architects, the Newsom brothers of San Francisco constructed this beautiful masterpiece. Today, the Mansion has become a local landmark; you cannot miss it, if you are in Eureka. In fact, it is located to the south of Carson’s lumber mill. William Carson, the owner of this mansion came to California during the Gold Rush and was disappointed not to find any. But he worked hard in the lumber industry, which was a booming venture then, and made millions. The Carson Mansion was his tribute to American architecture. Much has been written about the Stick-Eastlake features of this mansion and experts have marveled over its Queen Anne properties.

  • Reflections on the Art of Place Writing
    REFLECTIONS ON THE ART OF PLACE WRITING LOWELL "BEN" BENNION and JERRY ROHDE XDuring the 1990S we taught, both singly and together, a place-writing class at Humboldt State University (HSU) that focused either on California's North Coast or on the Trinity Corridor that connects Redding with Arcata and Eureka (Fig- ure i). Several of our students published revised versions of their papers in the Humboldt Historian;scores more participated in the production of Traveling the Trinity Highway (2000).' That 25o-page guidebook is a portrait, in pictures and prose, of a trinity of Trinities-the river, the mountains, and the 140-mile road that ties together a dozen small towns divided among three counties (Shasta, Trinity, and Humboldt). Our decade-long collaboration has convinced us that fieldwork and archival research are equally essential to the perusal and portrayal of place. This conclusion will leave veteran place writers unsurprised, but many geogra- phy departments, including Hsu's, teach the two kinds of methodologies as sepa- rate courses, as if they had no common bond. We do not mean to question the validity of such a division, but, based on our experience in preparing a guide to the Trinity National Scenic Byway, we would strongly recommend a place-writing class as a practical medium for integrating the two approaches. The primary purpose of this essay is to demonstrate the utility of combining them. At the same time, we draw from a rich fund of Trinity field reflections to illustrate the kinds of methods used to highlight the places portrayed in the book.

  • Information Ecosystem Assessment
    EUREKA, CALIFORNIA, MAY-JULY 2019 INFORMATION ECOSYSTEM ASSESSMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY WHAT AM I READING? What follows is an assessment of the information ecosystem – the dynamic of information creation, distribution, and consumption – of Eureka, California. Eureka, (population 26,998) is the country seat and largest city of Humboldt County (population 136,373) located along California’s remote and rural northern coast. Humboldt is the home of Access Humboldt, a local non-profit, public access media network, and Internews, a global non-profit supporting healthy information worldwide. The purpose of this project is to inform Access Humboldt’s new strategic plan for 2020-2025, and to help Access Humboldt better serve the information needs of their evolving community. We will also provide a version of this report for the general public, particularly journalists, philanthropists, government officials, and the civil society and activist community for consideration in pursuit of their civic and policy goals. KEY FINDINGS For its size and level of wealth, Eureka has a diverse array of information sources. Eureka is one of the smallest media markets in the country (#195 of 205). Despite this, it enjoys a local newspaper of record, an alternative weekly, two network affiliates with local news broadcasts, a PBS affiliate, two commercial local news sources, and a host of commer- cial and community radio stations. With the notable exception of the sudden closure of KHSU, the local NPR affiliate hosted by Humboldt State University, Eureka’s market has remained remarkably stable. Eurekans generally have access to an information source they trust. The vast majority of the people we talked to,- both in and outside the media industry, agreed there were multiple trustworthy news opera tions.
