  • The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Not All Killed by John Wayne: The Long History of Indigenous Rock, Metal, and Punk 1940s to the Present A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in American Indian Studies by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 © Copyright by Kristen Le Amber Martinez 2019 ABSTRACT OF THESIS Not All Killed by John Wayne: Indigenous Rock ‘n’ Roll, Metal, and Punk History 1940s to the Present by Kristen Le Amber Martinez Master of Arts in American Indian Studies University of California Los Angeles, 2019 Professor Maylei Blackwell, Chair In looking at the contribution of Indigenous punk and hard rock bands, there has been a long history of punk that started in Northern Arizona, as well as a current diverse scene in the Southwest ranging from punk, ska, metal, doom, sludge, blues, and black metal. Diné, Apache, Hopi, Pueblo, Gila, Yaqui, and O’odham bands are currently creating vast punk and metal music scenes. In this thesis, I argue that Native punk is not just a cultural movement, but a form of survivance. Bands utilize punk and their stories as a conduit to counteract issues of victimhood as well as challenge imposed mechanisms of settler colonialism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, notions of being fixed in the past, as well as bringing awareness to genocide and missing and murdered Indigenous women. Through D.I.Y. and space making, bands are writing music which ii resonates with them, and are utilizing their own venues, promotions, zines, unique fashion, and lyrics to tell their stories.

  • The Porch Issue
    Page 1! Page 2! Welcome to The Porch We’re glad you’re here. We’re having a slow conversation about beautiful, and difficult things. We believe that because oppositional energy always recreates itself, that the best criticism of the bad is the practice of the better. So we try to think about what we might build, more than how to destroy, what we might imagine, more than what we want to disappear, how we might each step into co-creating the world we want to see, right here, right now, imperfectly playing a part in the imperfect whole. We don’t deny the suffering, nor the anxiety, nor the sheer scale of the task of overcoming an old story of separation, selfishness, and scapegoating. But we’re also seeking a proportionate measure of what it is to be alive to- day. To be able to see the wisdom of the past, and live from it. To hold light- ly to the resources we’ve received, and serve the common good from there. To get clear about the resources we lack, and ask for help from there. Three years into this lovely experiment we call The Porch, we feel like we’re just getting started - but it’s not a race, or a competition. The Porch is a place, and a path, and an invitation. Thank you for saying Yes. Page 3!
