Episode 3271: Are You (Still) Ready For W.O.R.?: Without Reservations: Native Hip Hop and Identity in the Music of W.O.R. by Alan Lechusza Ph.D. 28:30

Are You (Still) Ready For W.O.R.?: Without Reservations: Native Hip Hop and Identity in the Music of W.O.R. by Alan Lechusza Ph.D. The 1960s in America brought to light the importance of Civil Rights. The 1970s drew into focus issues of tribal rights, equity, and justice through the Red Power Movement. It was at this turning point in American Indian history that a discourse of sovereignty and tribal self-determination gained national and worldwide visibility. This same era ushered in the foundations of the Hip Hop movement. Native Peoples living in the urban centers were exposed to this expressive complex and utilized the embedded resistant nature of Hip Hop. The 1980s brought forth a critical Native Hip Hop voice that spoke across lines of socio-political demarcation. This work focuses on the Native Hip Hop group, WithOut Rezervation (W.O.R.) and their use of the cultural signifiers and Elements of Hip Hop. A critical reading of selected works by W.O.R. reveals new epistemological discourse models and the ideological flexibility of Native identity. Hip Hop’s vernacular and expressive elements are deconstructed and narrated from a contemporary Native perspective. This updated edition of the original 2009 research includes BONUS TRACKS that illustrate the progress movement of a Native Hip Hop canon. The added analysis reviews the original scholarship to see how those early Native critical theories have evolved for a Native-centered artistic expression. This updated edition argues for socio-linguistic pedagogical theories that articulate the dynamics of tribal sovereignty and self-determination. Dr. Alan Lechusza is a scholar whose name has become synonymous with critical thought and cultural discourse. He is a thinker and writer who explores the world of popular culture with a critical eye. He holds a PhD and uses his deep understanding to question and redefine how we see art, power, and knowledge. His research covers various topics that aim to break down and rebuild our ideas about culture, artistry, and socio-political authority.. Dr. Alan closely examines everyday cultural expressions and examines them in a way that challenges the usual ways of thinking. His writings make people think and view culture in new ways. Dr. Alan Lechusza wants to create conversations that inspire change to understand how we experience the world. https://www.amazon.com/Are-You-Still-Ready-R-ebook/dp/B0D18JF4Y3?ref_=ast_author_mpb https://alanlechusza.org/ Page Solutions-Bluegrass Bound Books http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/22725allp.mp3…

Episode 3270: Psalms of Freedom: A Journey of Faith, Hope, and Healing by Joseph H.K.A. Espinda, Jr. 27:38

Psalms of Freedom: A Journey of Faith, Hope, and Healing by Joseph H.K.A. Espinda, Jr. How can a broken soul find his way to a better life? He can’t! But through Jesus Christ all things are possible and reachable. The reason for writing this book isn’t to save anyone because I cannot save a single person – only Jesus can. The reason for the book is to help others by sharing experiences about abuse, bad habits, alternative lifestyles, addiction, and depression to show that all these things can be overcome and replaced with true joy and freedom. I have written many psalms (poems) during my journey, and they are sprinkled throughout the chapters. They are meant to stir the heart and spark the imagination into believing that there is a greater force beyond us that longs to embrace us with truth, peace, and love. Songs and poems can create powerful visuals and tap into the human soul to promote an awakening not previously recognized. That awakening is the power and light of Christ. The psalms speak of my heart and how the love of the Savior changes hearts and changes lives and changes perspectives. My greatest perspective change is my identity and how I am seen by the Lord – I am a child of God. As His child, I can step out in faith knowing that God is always near no matter where I have been or where I am going. The same is available to anyone – no matter what. About The Author He was a broken soul searching for release from his personal demons which are like many who are trapped by the enticing of the world. After many years of struggle, depression, suicide attempts, and a longing to find God’s love, he was able to overcome and realize true freedom through the saving grace of Jesus Christ. No longer addicted to an alternate lifestyle, he freely shares his experiences to show others who are on the same road that he was on that there is an offramp to freedom, joy, and fulfilment (A Journey of Faith, Hope, and Healing). https://www.amazon.com/Psalms-Freedom-Journey-Faith-Healing/dp/B0DK7M4661 https://www.authorwebservices-gem4.net/ https://www.instagram.com/joseph_hka_espinda/reel/DCDLe5xy-MF/ https://mainspringbooks.com/ http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/22725jej.mp3…

Elephants, the Grass and A Teacher: Recollections and Reflections on the Nigeria/Biafra War by Chinyere E. Egbe This book is a captivating rendition of Dr. Egbe's personal and family experiences during the Nigerian Civil War (1967-1970). The book will equally go down as an audacious contribution to the historiography of the Nigerian civil war. Not to mention a crash program in military history. Here, his detailed rebuttal of Brigadier Alabi's claim that the Second Punic War between Rome and Carthage was the first time elephants were used in battle, comes to mind. Dr. Egbe presents several harrowing experiences and close calls with annihilation of his family. For example, after Dr. Egbe's siblings and their mother were tied up to be executed by Nigerian soldiers in May 1969, one of the soldiers discovered a photograph in which their dad was pictured with the battalion commander who had sent them to arrest the family. Dr. Egbe concludes that the leaders of Nigeria and Biafra learned little or no lessons from the tragedy. Dr. Chinyere Emmanuel Egbe is an economist and currently a tenured full professor of Business at Medgar Evers College (CUNY), where he has taught business statistics and finance since 1989. Dr. Egbe is also a Consortial faculty at the City University School of Professional Studies (SPS). At CUNY SPS, Dr. Egbe teaches Business Mathematics and also provides leadership in curriculum development.During his tenure at Medgar Evers College, Dr. Egbe held various positions. While he was dean, he led the school to gain national accreditation through the Accreditation Council for Schools of Business and Programs (ACBSP) in 2003 and continued to provide leadership to reaffirm the accreditation of the school's business programs in 2013. Dr. Egbe also wrote proposals that established two new degree programs. Community leaders have also recognized Dr. Egbe for his contributions to community Development and awarded him Certificates of Special Congressional Recognition in 2001 and 2018. https://www.amazon.com/Elephants-Grass-Teacher-Recollections-Reflections/dp/B0D3KLSGS2 https://igweplinyegbe.org/ https://mainspringbooks.com/ http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/22725msb1.mp3…

Alisa in Washerland by Marian Flores "Flores has created a feisty, fun little heroine and a world that's chock-full of clever wonders. The book does what the best stories do; makes you see ordinary things in a way you never had before." -Ellen Tanner MarshNew York Times three-time best-selling author Marian Flores has spent her life living in small Connecticut towns. She is married and has a son and an elderly cat. As an artistic child she won many art awards. She graduated from Paier College of Art and later Central Connecticut State University, where she was inspired to write this book. Currently, she is an art teacher at a private special needs school. She greatly enjoys her students who are children on the autism spectrum with multiple disabilities. Alisa in Washerland is a contemporary twist and play on words with a classic book, Alice in Wonderland, inspired by the author's dislike for washing dishes as a child and her niece's disdain for putting dishes into the dishwasher. When Marian's sister had a dream that she was living in the dishwasher, she found a way to combine all these things into this whimsical fable. https://www.amazon.com/Alisa-Washerland-Marian-Flores/dp/1962366847/ref=sr_1_1?crid=ZDK34LKY8FB1&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ElPV9tnmXDiyP22u1_FAQQ.ApIwCDgWQKF-MUAbHddxfsxDM3GYitAqRuPN0ENkG-k&dib_tag=se&keywords=9781962366847&qid=1737761685&sprefix=9781962366847%2Caps%2C638&sr=8-1 https://citiofbooks.com/bookstore/motivational-inspirational/alisa-in-washerland/ https://authormarianflores.com/ http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/22025mfcob.mp3…
