    In Negro Soy Yo Marc D. Perry explores Cuba’s hip hop movement as a window into the racial complexities of the island’s ongoing transition from revolutionary socialism toward free-market capitalism. Centering on the music and lives of black-identified raperos (rappers), Perry examines the ways these young artists craft notions of black Cuban identity and racial citizenship, along with calls for racial justice, at the fraught confluence of growing Afro-Cuban marginalization and long held perceptions of Cuba as a non-racial nation. Situating hip hop within a long history of Cuban racial politics, Perry discusses the artistic and cultural exchanges between raperos and North American rappers and activists, and their relationships with older Afro-Cuban intellectuals and African American political exiles. He also examines critiques of Cuban patriarchy by female raperos, the competing rise of reggaetón, as well as state efforts to incorporate hip hop into its cultural institutions. At this pivotal moment of Cuban-U.S. relations, Perry's analysis illuminates the evolving dynamics of race, agency, and neoliberal transformation amid a Cuba in historic flux.

    The impact of culture and minority status on the African-American female domestic violence experience, 2017

    No full text
    The purpose behind this non- probability sampling, qualitative study is to explore how culture (being African American) and minority status (being a woman) impact the domestic violence experience. Participants were recruited by the author and within the Atlanta University Center Consortium. This study sought to answer two questions: First, what factors put a woman at risk for experiencing domestic violence; and second, what factors aid in a womans recovery from domestic violence. Based upon both questionnaire data as well as prior research, the author can reasonably conclude that being African American and a woman impacts the contextual experience of domestic violence. KEY TERMS: Domestic Violence, African-American, Women, Female, Men, Culture, Social and Behavioral Sciences, Social Wor

    Scandales et intimités : l'actrice française et la célébrité féminine au dix-huitième siècle

    No full text
    This dissertation demonstrates how the emergence of the concept of female celebrity created a new kind of public woman and new forms of privacy in early modern France. The early modern celebrity mechanisms that I identify and analyze through the figure of the eighteenth-century French actress – her performance on stage, her rivals on and off-stage, her participation in public affairs, and her writings – contribute to the construction of her image as an actress, artist, militant, and author. Celebrity studies scholar Leo Braudy identifies the concept of “visible knownness” as a key element in the study of glory and celebrity: it is necessary for the star to be seen in order to be known and recognized as a celebrity by the public. I use Braudy’s concept of “knownness” to analyze the ways in which the creation of a public knowledge around the actress allowed the eighteenth-century French actress to forge intimate connections with her public. Drawing on the work of scholars such as Gill Perry, Felicity Nussbaum, and Laura Engel, I examine how print culture – including anecdotes, engravings, novels, and actress memoirs – shaped the celebrity actress positively as a public woman in Enlightenment France. My work thus challenges a key critical narrative in French studies regarding the place of the early modern public woman, one influenced by Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s notoriously negative vision of the public woman and based on a gendered separation of the male public sphere and the female private sphere that made it impossible for the public woman to aspire to feminine virtue. My dissertation rethinks this Rousseauist vision of the public woman through the prism of celebrity. The actress’ celebrity implies a renegotiation of the public and private spaces that legitimizes her participation in the public sphere even as it constructs her as an object of media consumption
