Book Vanguard Performance Beyond Left and Right

Download or read book Vanguard Performance Beyond Left and Right written by Kimberly Jannarone and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vanguard Performance Beyond Left and Right challenges assumptions regarding “radical” and “experimental” performance that have long dominated thinking about the avant-garde. The book brings to light vanguard performances rarely discussed: those that support totalitarian regimes, promote conservative values, or have been effectively snapped up by right-wing regimes the performances intended to oppose. In so doing, the volume explores a central paradox: how innovative performances that challenge oppressive power structures can also be deployed in deliberate, passionate support of oppressive power. Essays by leading international scholars pose engaging questions about the historical avant-garde, vanguard acts, and the complex role of artistic innovation and live performance in global politics. Focusing on performances that work against progressive and democratic ideas (including scripted drama, staged suicide, choral dance, terrorism, rallies, and espionage), the book demonstrates how many compelling performance ideals—unification, exaltation, immersion—are, in themselves, neither moral nor immoral; they are only emotional and aesthetic urges that can be powerfully channeled into a variety of social and political outlets.

Download or read book Embracing Grace written by L.D. Clark and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-12-12 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of grace did not begin with the New Covenant. It started with Gods first revelation of himself. Grace and mercy areand have always beenpart of Gods character. Mankind has not always enjoyed the fuller revelation of grace as given to this generation. Author L. D. Clarks Embracing Grace: Where the Law Ends, Grace Begins explains the evolution of grace. It is revealed in Genesis, but generations who lived before Christ could not enjoy its fullness because wrath was upon every soul that sinned. While the law of Moses temporarily stayed the execution of justice, it did not offer soul salvation. After Jesus bore Gods wrath for us all, greater grace became Gods gift to us all. It behooves us to know, understand, and avail ourselves to this new relationship with the Father through Jesus Christ. Grace is part of the Fathers legacy to this generation. Embracing Grace: Where the Law Ends, Grace Begins shows you how to revel in Gods grace and deepen your faith.

Book excerpt: Legendary Rock Hall of Fame innovator shares the most lasting influences on his remarkable life — a life that helped shape the last 60 years of rock and roll history The book features a prologue by Eric Clapton and a foreword by Paul Simon. Dion DiMucci's journey through rock and roll history is as legendary as his hits. As the lead singer of Dion and the Belmonts in the late 1950s, Dion captured the heart of America with chart-toppers like "Runaround Sue", "The Wanderer", and "A Teenager in Love." His later solo success with the profound "Abraham, Martin, and John" in 1968 marked another high, contributing to his twelve gold records. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, Dion explored folk, blues, and gospel, earning a Grammy nomination in 1985 and an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1989 alongside icons like the Rolling Stones and Stevie Wonder. In this compelling collection, Dion shares intimate conversations with close friend Adam Jablin, reflecting on his rise to fame, battles with heroin addiction, a sixty-year marriage, and the influential figures in his music career, including Hank Williams and Bob Dylan. Featuring over 200 vibrant photos, this book captures not just the life of a music icon but six decades of rock and roll evolution.

Book God in a Single Vision

Download or read book God in a Single Vision written by David Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-26 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ancient conversation between Western philosophy and Christian theology, powerful contemporary voices are arguing for monologue rather than dialogue. Instead of these two disciplines learning from and mutually informing each other, both philosophers and theologians are increasingly disconnected from, and thus unable to hear, what the other is saying, especially in Anglo-American scholarship. Some Christian philosophers are now found claiming methodological authority over doctrine, while some Christian theologians even deny that philosophy has its own integrity as a separate discipline. Against these trends, David Brown has argued over the past thirty years that philosophy and theology are both necessary in order to grapple with the reality of divine mystery and Christian faith. Neither discipline can be reduced to the other, and each has its own contribution to make for a full understanding of what Brown describes as 'a single vision' of God. In this volume, Brown addresses some key topics in philosophical theology, including the created order, experience and revelation, incarnation and redemption, and heaven and our communal destiny. Combining analytic clarity, doctrinal substance, and historical depth, this volume exemplifies Brown's project of truly integrating philosophy and theology. It thus provides an ideal introduction to this vital conversation for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as a connected argument of interest to specialists in both disciplines.

Book Policing Black Lives

Download or read book Policing Black Lives written by Robyn Maynard and published by Fernwood Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-18T00:00:00Z with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delving behind Canada’s veneer of multiculturalism and tolerance, Policing Black Lives traces the violent realities of anti-blackness from the slave ships to prisons, classrooms and beyond. Robyn Maynard provides readers with the first comprehensive account of nearly four hundred years of state-sanctioned surveillance, criminalization and punishment of Black lives in Canada. While highlighting the ubiquity of Black resistance, Policing Black Lives traces the still-living legacy of slavery across multiple institutions, shedding light on the state’s role in perpetuating contemporary Black poverty and unemployment, racial profiling, law enforcement violence, incarceration, immigration detention, deportation, exploitative migrant labour practices, disproportionate child removal and low graduation rates. Emerging from a critical race feminist framework that insists that all Black lives matter, Maynard’s intersectional approach to anti-Black racism addresses the unique and understudied impacts of state violence as it is experienced by Black women, Black people with disabilities, as well as queer, trans, and undocumented Black communities. A call-to-action, Policing Black Lives urges readers to work toward dismantling structures of racial domination and re-imagining a more just society.

Book A Knock in the Attic

Download or read book A Knock in the Attic written by John Russell and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I was five years old I was awakened by an intrusive ghost who not only scared the wits out of me but who also opened up a portal that activated my psychic gifts and allowed a never-ending parade of paranormal manifestations to occur in my life. A Knock in the Attic is my story, not only about my psychic awakening and the abundance of mind-blowing otherworldly confrontations I’ve experienced, but also about the life lessons those many supernatural encounters have taught me. I’ve learned that our loved ones who have crossed over, as well as our beloved deceased pets, can give us convincing proofs that life continues after death. I’ll tell you what it was like to meet Uri Geller, to film a TV pilot for The History Channel, and give you a behind-the-scenes look at some paranormal investigations I conducted that revealed incredible facts. I will also describe my own “UFO encounter” at the Roswell UFO Museum. In spite of this exceedingly close contact with the realm of Spirit—or maybe because of it—somewhere along the way I lost my faith and gave up on myself, my psychic gifts, and the beings on the Other Side; but they didn’t give up on me, and that’s why I’m still here to tell you my story. Now I’m happy to share these amazing events with you, wishing that you will find inspiration, insight, encouragement, laughter, hope, and maybe even a renewed faith of your own. You may have more than a few spine-tingling moments as you join me to experience these astonishing true stories of the unknown.

Book The Myth of Child Protection

Download or read book The Myth of Child Protection written by Rona Jualla van Oudenhoven and published by Gompel&Svacina. This book was released on 2022-07-15 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Myth of Child Protection captures the harsh ironic reality of the harm that arises when well-intentioned systems are broken. This book serves as a guide for persons who want to create change for the better in the system. It is an apology to all those children and youth whom the system has failed. At the same time, it is a pledge to do better by those still present and others yet to come. In those instances where intervention did more good than harm, it is a recognition of this good. This journal of collective writing is geared towards jointly generating new knowledge that is fueled by the past, seeks to inform the present and shape the future. Included in this book are the critical voices of advocacy and allyship united in change. It is a unique collection of essays, guides and best practices that would normally stay in quiet quarters as documents circulating within agencies. Instead, it recognizes the good work already being done and the need to use these bodies of work as best practice because they come from within the organizations and in that sense the true experts. This book is dedicated to all children and youth in the child welfare system.

Book Critical Perspectives in Public Health Feminisms

Download or read book Critical Perspectives in Public Health Feminisms written by Renée Monchalin and published by Canadian Scholars. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique and innovative collection, Critical Perspectives in Public Health Feminisms gives space to chronically underrepresented voices in public health through engaging with Public Health Feminisms (PHF). PHF describes a technique of analysis that attends gender and intersections of race, class, sexuality, age, and ability in public health. Including the perspectives of Black, Indigenous, women of colour, refugee, immigrant, (dis)abled, neurodivergent, two-spirit, non-binary, trans and/or gender diverse scholars, this text aims to fill a gap in public health scholarship and practice. Through a social justice approach, it critically addresses how public health services, policies, and programming are unable to protect and promote the health of all Canadians due to their lack of representation and inclusivity from inception to execution. This accessible and thought-provoking volume is essential for upper-year undergraduate and graduate students across all areas in public health and gender and health studies. It provides analytical, theoretical, and methodological tools to inform work in public health services, policies, and programming through a PHF lens.
