  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall 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 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

  • A Vision for Scholar-Activists of Color John Streamas
    Back to Volume Ten Contents A Vision for Scholar-Activists of Color John Streamas Abstract By any definition of “bullying,” many white administrators have bullied many faculty of color in recent years. This began with the “culture wars” of the 1980s and has escalated in the Age of Trump. Administrators argue that they are merely maintaining neutrality and fairness, or that they are defending the speech rights of campus fascists. But this makes sense only when they willfully ignore white privilege and preexisting power differentials. I relate one of my experiences of administrative bullying, analyze the cultural context in which campus bigots may freely bully people of color, and offer nine modest proposals for change. Without progress toward racial justice, faculty of color may understandably feel compelled to “bully back.” I am old enough to remember bullies in 1960s family situation comedies. Because mean girls were not allowed to be bullies (their victims were always other girls, after all, and so they were constructed as the weak harassing the slightly weaker), “bully” was a gendered term, and bully boys looked mean and ugly. Often they were heavy, like Lumpy Rutherford on Leave It to Beaver; always they dressed “sloppily” and “cheaply”; and sometimes, when they received their comeuppance, their voices soared into frightened “girlish” squeals— rendered so unlikeably effeminate that no viewers would want to identify with them. Hero-kids’ goodness could be measured by just how much they tolerated the bully boys. After all, the writers needed plots with recurring bully-villains for succeeding weeks’ episodes. Copyright American Association of University Professors, 2019 AAUP Journal of Academic Freedom 2 Volume Ten Such bullies exist in adult life, of course, but—except for those few who evolve into smooth-talking hucksters—they usually wield little power and influence.

  • Classic Tv and Faith: Vii - Leave It to Beaver ‘Red and Yellow, Black and White
    “CLASSIC TV AND FAITH: VII - LEAVE IT TO BEAVER ‘RED AND YELLOW, BLACK AND WHITE . .’” Karen F. Bunnell Elkton United Methodist Church August 19, 2012 Galatians 3:23-29 Luke 19:1-10 Life has been different this week without the Olympics on television. I don’t know about you, but I was glued to the TV for two weeks, watching the action. I don’t want to tell you how many nights I stayed up until midnight watching the competition, and then when my alarm went off at 5:30 a.m., turned it back on again. It was so great to watch how well everyone did. Who will ever forget watching Michael Phelps achieve something no other Olympic athlete has ever done? Or who will forget watching Usain Bolt run - “the fastest man alive”? Or the women’s gymnastics team, or the women’s soccer team, or the young American diver who shocked the diving world by winning the gold medal? It was all just wonderful. But you know what I always find really, really inspiring? It’s the closing ceremonies. No, not the opening ceremonies, although this year’s was exceptional, with the Queen appearing with James Bond and all. But the closing ceremonies are always wonderful for one big reason, in my opinion - that all of the athletes come on to the field in a group - all nations, all athletes, all sports - one great, huge group of humanity. They join together across competitive boundaries, and national boundaries, and ethnic boundaries, and language boundaries - they forget all of that and just revel in joy together at what they’ve experienced at the Games! It is absolutely wonderful, and I truly believe, in my heart of hearts, that it is a portrait of the coming kingdom of God - where all dwell together in harmony, as one.
