But one odd and engaging trip to the Black Hills of South Dakota changes his life. Gus becomes obsessed with the plight of the Lakota Sioux and with the role his family might have played in their oppression decades before. Recurring trips to the Black Hills fuel Gus's fascination.

Putting his California life at risk, he sets up shop in Hill City, South Dakota, where he entangles a Lakota couple in a project driven by his white man's guilt. Gus plans to hold a major race to raise funds for the Crazy Horse Monument, a mountain sculpture honoring the great Oglala Sioux warrior. When his obsession brings him near his breaking point, Gus finds a savior in the form of a mysterious old Sioux named White Owl. But will Gus be able to come to terms with the past?

Download or read book Oh Boy written by Freya Jarman-Ivens and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Muddy Waters to Mick Jagger, Elvis to Freddie Mercury, Jeff Buckley to Justin Timberlake, masculinity in popular music has been an issue explored by performers, critics, and audiences. From the dominance of the blues singer over his "woman" to the sensitive singer/songwriter, popular music artists have adopted various gendered personae in a search for new forms of expression. Sometimes these roles shift as the singer ages, attitudes change, or new challenges on the pop scene arise; other times, the persona hardens into a shell-like mask that the performer struggles to escape. Oh Boy! Masculinities and Popular Music is the first serious study of how forms of masculinity are negotiated, constructed, represented and addressed across a range of popular music texts and practices. Written by a group of internationally recognized popular music scholars—including Sheila Whiteley, Richard Middleton, and Judith Halberstam—these essays study the concept of masculinity in performance and appearance, and how both male and female artists have engaged with notions of masculinity in popular music.
