  • Syllabus for RESPECT: Minority Voices in Early Soul, Reggae, Rock, and Folk
    Syllabus for RESPECT: Minority Voices in Early Soul, Reggae, Rock, and Folk OLLI UC Berkeley Fall 2021 Mondays, 9:30am-11am Instructor: Richie Unterberger Week One: Social Commentary and Protest in Soul Music, Pt. 1 In Soul of the 1960s While occasional soul songs of the first half of the 1960s had observations about the world at large, for the most part they dealt with romantic love, as well as a good share of tunes about partying and dancing. Many of these songs were great and classic. But wasn’t until the late 1960s that compositions commenting about the American (and sometimes specifically African-American) experience became a significant part of soul music. Curtis Mayfield, principal singer-songwriter of the Impressions, was perhaps the first to regularly express such sentiments. By the late 1960s, other stars like Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Nina Simone, and Sly & the Family Stone were also doing so occasionally. After some initial resistance on the part of its ownership and producers, Motown Records also made significant forays into this territory, most often with the Temptations, but also with the Supremes and other artists. Week Two: Social Commentary and Protest in Soul Music, Pt. 2 In Soul of the 1970s In the first half of the 1970s, socially conscious soul music sometimes gets tougher and more militant. At Motown, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder not only successfully fight for more artistic freedom to record more lyrically aware material, but also focus on long- playing albums as a medium of expression that are at least as important as hit singles.

These groups compose original songs that weave together the sounds of the Ameri- cas, from soul, samba, and the son jarocho to reggae, rumba, and rap. Multilin- gual lyrics in Spanish, English, Cálo, or Nahuatl that speak to themes of urban exile, indigenous identity, and multiracial unity are layered over the music to produce a sonic Chicana/o imaginary of the global city in the twenty-first century.4 Several of the bands within the scene have released full-length al- bums on their own independent record labels such as Xicano Records and Film (Aztlán Underground and Quinto Sol), De Volada Records (Slowrider and Blues Experiment), and Lysa Flores’s Bring Your Love Records (see dis- cography). The bands often collaborate with one another, producing or play- ing on each other’s records and touring on the same bill.

In lowrider culture, it is important for unfamiliar audiences to understand the concept of lowriders as vehicles and individuals who embody the cultural values. The limits of this thesis allow for exploration of the lowrider in its very specific ethnic context from which it originated, and the arguments I build within rely on a carefully grounded essentialist approach. I have attempted to offer a nuanced perspective based not only on research, but personal experience, which may not be shared or recognized by all lowriders.

  • The Chicano Theatre Movement and Actor Training in the United States
    FROM LA CARPA TO THE CLASSROOM: THE CHICANO THEATRE MOVEMENT AND ACTOR TRAINING IN THE UNITED STATES Dennis Sloan 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 May 2020 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Tim Brackenbury Graduate Faculty Representative Angela K. Ahlgren Cynthia Baron © 2020 Dennis Sloan All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor The historical narrative of actor training has thus far been limited to the history of Eurocentric actor training. Put another way, it has been predominantly white. While the history of actor training has been understudied in general, the history of training for actors of color has been almost non-existent. Yet scholars including Alison Hodge and Mark Evans have made direct links between actor training and both the evolution of theatre and the development of personal, artistic, and socio-political worldviews. Since the recorded history of actor training focuses almost exclusively on white practitioners, however, this history privileges the experiences and perspectives of white practitioners over those of color. Rooted in the argument that a history of actor training based so exclusively on whiteness is incomplete and inaccurate, this dissertation explores the history of actor training for Latinx actors, especially those who participated in and came out of the Chicanx Theatre Movement of the 1960s and 1970s, and who went on to engage in other training programs afterwards. Relying primarily on original archival research, I document multifaceted attempts to train Latinx actors in the United States in the mid- to late twentieth century.
