Book excerpt: How did I become who I am? Many have asked this, probing the vast expanse of the mind. Barry, a streetwise criminal from Columbus, Ohio, never asked. At age twenty, he knew who he was and how to get what he wanted. It was like that until he was on the business end of Eds .357 revolver. Ed knew who he was and had what he wanted, until he found himself stripped of everything important. Shirley struggled as a single mom of two teens, following the loss of her husband eight years ago. She longed for companionship once more. Ed and Shirley understood the loss of family. Barry never had one. The three were strangers but share a common bondthey had been robbed of the affections of a complete family. Individually, Ed, Shirley, or Barry could not envision a pathway to overcome their misfortune. Collectively, they possessed ample skills to move their lives in a wholly new, exhilarating direction. When Ed makes a questionable moral choice that will profoundly affect Barrys life, Shirley acquiesces. It ultimately affects the future of all three. An unlikely trio at the beginning, they initiated a daring adventure. The mind is magical. It can change people. Utopia can become reality, but only if they permit it.

Book excerpt: Spoken or Unspoken, Time will out all truth! Can a rose recapture its fragrance, and its petals be refolded once more? Can the past ever be exercised from the mind of an ongoing life? From Dr. Brighton, we know the answer. History cannot be changed once unfolded; however, corrections can be introduced, changing the outcome. Claudetta and Wesley were sharing one- and one-half lives. Half of his was missing; it was a void that often-created uneasiness. Following nearly 22 of Wesley's first years were presumed to be normal, could anybody know for sure? Only Ed knew, and he would go to his grave, sharing nothing of Wesley's past, except it be put in a splendid light. Speech regarding Wes's early years seemed always to fall on Ed, as though Wesley lacked the confidence to own them. Never spoken, yet some quietly wondered about those years. On the surface, it left one feeling the Brighton's lives had been without difficulties; an exception was the death of Evelyn, Ed's first wife. Without Wesley's past, common day personal evaluations and future estimations had to be based solely on the present and the created history. A history that only Dr. Brighton knew he had designed it himself.

Download or read book Decentering the Nation written by Jesús A. Ramos-Kittrell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-12-12 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: winner of the 2021 Ellen Koskoff Edited Volume Prize Decentering the Nation: Music, Mexicanidad, and Globalization considers how neoliberal capitalism has upset the symbolic economy of “Mexican” cultural discourse, and how this phenomenon touches on a broader crisis of representation affecting the nation-state in globalization. This book argues that, while mexicanidad emerged in the early twentieth century as a cultural trope about national origins, culture, and history, it was, nonetheless a trope steeped in ‘otherization’ and used by nation-states (Mexico and the United States) to legitimize narratives of cultural and socioeconomic development stemming out of nationalist political projects that are now under strain. Using music as a phenomenological platform of inquiry, contributors to this book focus on a critique of mexicanidad in terms of the cultural processes through which people contest ideas about race, gender, and sexuality; reframe ideas of memory, history, and belonging; and negotiate the experiences of dislocation that affect them. The volume urges readers to find points of resonance in its chapters, and thus, interrogate the asymmetrical ways in which power traverses their own historical experience. In light of the crisis in representation that currently affects the nation-state as a political unit in globalization, such resonance is critical to make culture an arena of social collusion, where alliances can restore the fiber of civil society and contest the pressures that have made disenfranchisement one of the most alarming features characterizing the complex relationships between the state and the neoliberal corporate system that seeks to regulate it. Scholars of history, international relations, cultural anthropology, Latin American studies, queer and gender studies, music, and cultural studies will find this book particularly useful.

Download or read book Ben Enwonwu written by Sylvester Okwunodu Ogbechie and published by University Rochester Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intellectual biography of a modern African artist and his immense contribution to twentieth-century art history. The history of world art has long neglected the work of modern African artists and their search for forms of modernist expression as either irrelevant to the discourse of modern art or as fundamentally subservient to the established narrative of Western European modernist practice. With this engaging new volume, Sylvester Ogbechie refutes this approach by examining the life and work of Ben Enwonwu (1917-94), a premier African modernist and pioneer whose career opened the way for the postcolonial proliferation and increased visibility of African art. In the decades between Enwonwu's birth and death, modernization produced new political structures and new forms of expression inAfrican cultures, inspiring important developments in modern African art. Within this context, Ogbechie evaluates important issues such as the role of Anglo-Nigerian colonial culture in the development of modern Nigerian art, andEnwonwu's involvement with international discourses of modernism in Europe, Africa, and the United States over a period of five decades. The author also interrogates Enwonwu's use of the radical politics of Negritude ideology to define modern African art against canonical interpretations of Euro-modernism; and the artist's visual and critical contributions to Pan Africanism, Nigerian nationalism, and postcolonial interpretations of African modernity. First and foremost an intellectual biography of Ben Enwonwu as a modern African artist, rather than an exhaustive critical exploration of the discourse of modernism in African art history or in modern art in general, Ben Enwonwu situates the artist historically and interprets his work in ways that surpass traditional discourse around the canon of modern art. Sylvester Ogbechie is Associate Professor of Art History at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
