HUMOR AND COMMENTARY INSIDE. SEE TRIGGER WARNING FOR THE PERPETUALLY OFFENDED. Only read if you understand humor and have been missing it because you've been surrounded by those who wear pussy-hats. Angela K. Durden is a Citizen Journalist; songwriter; inventor of technology; crime novelist; performer; overall genius; author of other books; autodidact; and polymath. As a Southern woman, she gets away with saying stuff that would get others shot but knows how to fake sincerity by prefacing comments with words and phrases like Sweetie pie, Honey, Sugah, and so forth. Durden give feathers because most folks aren't worth a whole bird.

This Little Light of Mine: Twinkle Revisited

This Little Light of Mine: Twinkle Revisited

Angela K. Durden

Blue Room Books
2020
nidottu
This is a book about a spiritual journey to God and His love. Be prepared because it is about an examined life and a search for the love from the author's Heavenly Father during her childhood when she was abused, and during her adulthood while dealing with the after-effects of it. BOOK BACK COVER: Socrates, Dostoyevsky, and Seneca all said that to have an examined life meant a devotion to truth, and would involve: The search for wisdom and intellectual humility. Feeding of a soul so as to be resilient against evil, pain, hardship, and misery. Identifying meaningful goals. And the striving to perfect one's character. Our Heavenly Father summed it best when He inspired Solomon to write in Ecclesiastes 12:13: "The conclusion of the matter, everything having been heard, is: Fear the true God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole obligation of man."

Responding to Populist Parties in Europe

Responding to Populist Parties in Europe

Angela K. Bourne

Oxford University Press
2023
sidottu
Responding to Populist Parties in Europe: The 'Other People' vs the 'Populist People' provides a new theoretical tool kit exploring how those who disagree with populist parties oppose them and what kinds of opposition initiatives work, why, and to what ends. It argues that analogies with the interwar rise of fascism and postwar communist takeover to the East do not easily fit the reality of today's Europe. Those opposing populist parties often swim in muddier waters than the past, necessarily navigating more complex questions about whether populist opponents deepen or threaten democracy. Populists also operate in a globalized, interdependent Europe, with overlapping spheres of territorial governance. This novel context, the book claims, not only helps us understand the rise of populist parties, but also the constraints of opposition. It begins with a new typology of tolerant and intolerant initiatives opposing populist parties, not just from public authorities and political parties operating at state and international levels, but also lesser-known initiatives from civil society. This forms the foundations of a 'bottom up' approach for evaluating the effectiveness of opposition to populist parties, acknowledging substantial variation in opposition forms country-to-country and party-to-party. The book then outlines a goal-attainment theory of effective opposition, focusing on whether opponents manage to curb illiberal and anti-democratic policies, reduce support for populist parties, diminish their resources, or induce moderation, without producing perverse effects.

Drumming Asian America

Drumming Asian America

Angela K. Ahlgren

Oxford University Press Inc
2018
sidottu
With its dynamic choreographies and booming drumbeats, taiko has gained worldwide popularity since its emergence in 1950s Japan. Harnessed by Japanese Americans in the late 1960s, taiko's sonic largesse and buoyant energy challenged stereotypical images of Asians in America as either model minorities or sinister foreigners. While the majority of North American taiko players are Asian American, over 400 groups now exist across the US and Canada, and players come from a range of backgrounds. Using ethnographic and historical approaches, combined with in-depth performance description and analysis, this book explores the connections between taiko and Asian American cultural politics. Based on original and archival interviews, as well as the author's extensive experience as a taiko player, this book highlights the Midwest as a site for Asian American cultural production and makes embodied experience central to inquiries about identity, including race, gender, and sexuality. The book builds on insights from the fields of dance studies, ethnomusicology, performance studies, queer and feminist theory, and Asian American studies to argue that taiko players from a variety of identity positions perform Asian America on stage, as well as in rehearsals, festivals, schools, and through interactions with audiences. While many taiko players play simply for the love of its dynamism and physicality, this book demonstrates that politics are built into even the most mundane aspects of rehearsing and performing.

Conservatism in the Black Community

Conservatism in the Black Community

Angela K. Lewis

Routledge
2012
sidottu
Conservatism in the Black Community examines the contemporary meanings of Black Conservatism and its influence on black political behavior, providing a basis for understanding the impact this phenomenon has on black political behavior. Lewis analyzes conservatism within the black ideological framework, while also explaining the meaning of conservatism in the black community. While scholars have argued that the level of support for conservatism among blacks is minimal because conservatism is antithetical to black interest, there are a cadre of conservative political intellectuals and political elites in America. Do their views influence those of the wider Black population? Or does the media merely amplify their voices but with little support? What part of contemporary Black conservatism has found a home in the Tea Party movement? Focusing on what conservatism means to Blacks at the grassroots level and in what issue areas Blacks as a whole tend to have more conservative views, this work neither critiques nor praises Black Conservatism. The results of Lewis’s mix of quantitative and qualitative methodologies will be of strong interest to students and scholars of Black politics, Black studies, and political behavior more generally.

Suffrage Discourse in Britain during the First World War

Suffrage Discourse in Britain during the First World War

Angela K. Smith

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2005
sidottu
In the first in-depth study of the relationship between the suffrage campaign in Britain and World War I, Angela K. Smith explores the links between these two defining moments of the early twentieth century. Did the opportunities afforded by the war enable women finally and irrefutably to demonstrate their right to full citizenship? Or did World War I actually postpone women's enfranchisement? Although the Suffrage Movement was divided by the outbreak of war, many women continued to campaign for the vote, producing a wide variety of fictional and nonfictional 'suffrage texts'. Whether the writing of these women demonstrated their patriotism, pacifism, or ambivalence, it formed an integral part of their political responses to the war. Through textual/literary analysis of Suffrage magazines, wartime diaries, and a range of topical novels, Smith explores these responses within historical, social, and cultural contexts to understand the impact of the war on the success of the campaign in 1918 and the consequences for the years that followed.
