Instead, they started an investigation. All these other women came forward. And two weeks later, he was fi red,” says the former Fox & Friends anchor on a warm afternoon in early September. It is nearly three years to the day after she reached a $20-million settlement with 21st Century Fox and received an extraordinary public apology from her former employer — a key milestone in what would eventually become known’ as the #MeToo movement. “There is no way I could have known how this story would play out.” By toppling one of the most powerful fi gures in American media, Carlson sent a message to other survivors — not to mention enterprising journalists — that even seemingly untouchable men such as Harvey Weinstein and Bill O’Reilly could be held accountable for their alleged transgressions. Instead of crying at home as she once feared, Carlson has been able to pursue other professional opportunities. The Miss America winner has published a book, Be Fierce: Stop Harassment and Take Your Power Back, and advocated for the end of forced arbitration clauses in employment contracts — which, she says, have enabled workplace harassment by silencing women, burying their allegations and keeping predators on the job.

  • Ashtadasha Vadyam's and Temple Arts of Kerala
    www.ijcrt.org © 2020 IJCRT | Volume 8, Issue 8 August 2020 | ISSN: 2320-2882 Ashtadasha Vadyam’s and Temple Arts of Kerala Manoj Manikkoth PhD research scholar Vels University Abstract: Kerala – The God’s Own Country – is filled with the presence of music, dance, musical instruments, temple arts and temple rituals. The history of various traditional art forms rests in the soil of Kerala. About eighteen musical instruments are known as ‘Kshetra Vadyam’. It includes ‘Deva vadyam’ and ‘Asura Vadyam’ from which the distinct place for ‘Chenda’ can be acknowledged by observing where it is present. It might be ‘Chenda’s resonance that make the seventeen ‘Ashtadasha Vadyam’s to below the ‘Chenda’. Some of the musical instruments which are being used for Pooja rituals in temples are also being used for some classical dance forms in Kerala. The study of such musical instruments and the classical dance forms associated to it are the foundation of this journal. Some musical instruments are used only outside the temple and some are used inside the temple only. ‘Sopana Sangeetham’ is one of the popular among ‘Kshetra Sangeetham’. Only one musical instrument is used in ‘Sopana Sangeetham’ ie Idakka. Idakka is a musical instrument which is inevitable in ‘Mohiniyattam’ concert. Idakka is only used in ‘Kathakali’ when female role is presented. The ‘Chenda’ is an inevitable musical instrument in ‘Kathakali’. Altogether, five musical instruments in ‘Pakkamaelam” are used when ‘Kathakali’ is staged from which four are ‘Kshetra Vadyam’s, ‘Chenda’, ‘Idakka’, ‘Madhalam’, ‘Chengila’ and the one which is excluded in Kshetra Vadyam’s is ‘Ilathalam’.

  • The Musical Journey- Re-Centring Afroasia Through an Arc of the Blues
    The Musical Journey- Re-Centring AfroAsia through an Arc of the Blues *Sumangala Damodaran and Ari Sitas The essential difference between cante jondo and flamenco is that the origin of the former must be sought in the primitive musical systems of India, that is, in the first manifestations of song, while the latter, a consequence of the first, cannot be said to acquire its definitive form until the eighteenth century….The former is song imbued with the mysterious colour of primordial ages; the latter is relatively modern, its emotional interest eclipsed by that of the other. Spiritual colour versus local colour: that is the profound difference…That is to say that, cante jondo, like the primitive musical systems of India, is merely a stammer, an emission, higher or lower in pitch, of the voice, a marvelous buccal undulation, that breaks out of the echoing prison of our tempered scale, will not suffer the cold rigid pentagram of our modern music, and makes the hermetic flowers of semitones open in a thousand petals. (Federico García Lorca, 1922) Lorca’s insight in his lecture on the “Deep Song” is feisty, it is right within the vein leading to the heart of musical craft; somewhat inaccurate but poignant because as a musically gifted man who could play the piano (1) and write words infused with the echoes of the Cante Jondo, he could sense the pathways of this musical journey, close to a century earlier than this exploration. We too are in search of how to make the “hermetic flowers of semitones open in a thousand petals”.
