This essay examines iconic photography to demonstrate the ways this type of image functions
in our society—in the historical moment when it was taken—as well as its afterlife in popular
culture, including the fine arts. Leading scholars in the field of iconic photography, Robert
Hariman and John Louis Lucaites, will be used to describe and discuss this genre.
The iconic Depression-era photograph, “Migrant Mother” (1936) by Dorothea Lange will be
examined in its original context and use. Lange took this photograph of Florence Thompson
while on assignment for the Farm Security Administration which was part of President
Roosevelt's Resettlement Administration. It was originally published in the San Francisco News
as a way to legitimize government expenditures to help those people hit hard by the
Depression. This essay will examine how and why the image became iconic.
The second part of the essay explores how iconic images, and this one in particular, has been
adapted by others and re-contextualized for other purposes. One examination is within the
context of fine art. In the late 1980s, American artist Kathy Grove began "The Other Series"
where she would remove female figures from photographs of famous pieces of art using bleach,
dyes, and airbrushing. With "Migrant Mother" she airbrushed it to look like a Calvin Klein ad.
The message of her work was to equate her removal of women and their achievements with the
way that historians and culture has erased women and their achievements.

In the past twenty years or so, students of social movements have rediscovered the importance of culture. European theorists of post-industrial movements (like Touraine or Melucci), whose works were translated into English in the 1980s, have helped to inspire researchers to rethink their commitment to mobilization and political process approaches through a rediscovery of culture. Even some theorists most associated with the mobilization paradigm (Gamson, Oberschall, McCarthy) have recognized the importance of culture in protest.
In The Art of Protest, T.V. Reed focuses on the dramatic actions of U.S. social movements. His book serves as an introduction to the movements, but also offers a new perspective. The author’s claims are modest, his goal being to reinterpret and synthesize elements already available in the large body of literature through cultural issues. By doing so, he challenges easy distinctions between culture and politics, and questions how culture works in and around movements. From “We shall overcome” to cyberculture, Reed pairs each movement with a defining cultural practice: singing with the Civil Rights movement, drama with the Black Panthers, poetry with Women’s Rights, murals with Chicano/a movements, movies with the American Indian Movement, rock music with actions against famine and apartheid, graphic arts with action against AIDS, literature with the environmental movement, and cyberculture with the Global Justice movement.
The book’s main focus is the civil rights movement, with music and religion as the forms of culture at its centre. Although measuring subjective change or a change in consciousness is a challenge, Reed believes that “freedom songs are one of the best records we have of the transformation of consciousness in the ordinary people, the masses, who took part in the movement” (p. 14). Yet music did not enter the movement spontaneously. A legacy had to be uncovered and reworked, sometimes with radical alterations, adding political content to the emotional content. “Three clusters of events
in particular are key to the rise of both the music and the movement: the Montgomery bus boycott, the student-led sit-ins, and the Albany, Georgia, movement” (p. 16). A musical group from Albany, the Freedom Singers, played a role in singing the movement’s story and raising funds through their concerts, thereby bringing the movement’s messages to the North and to young people while helping to create a network for the Freedom Summer of 1964. Freedom songs brought people together and became “litanies against fear” (p. 25). Music transformed the personal and collective identities of the
movement’s activists; it was not the only force shaping the movement’s identities, but it wa.

Abstract
Art is a powerful tool for communicating experiences and evoking emotions. It is one of the oldest forms of human communication, used to express thoughts and feelings about big and small things. The earliest known cave paintings date back more than 30,000 years. Today, art continues to express complex emotions and experiences, from the joy of seeing a beloved person to the fear of being separated from family members. This essay demonstrates that art such as murals and installations have the power to communicate, spark change, and exhibit resistance and resilience by claiming spatial ideologies through the construction of visual subjectivity. Furthermore, it aims to add layers of visual discourse by validating the role of digital photography in transforming borders. Through digital photography, the act of resistance seizes and holds the capacity to spread art beyond the place it was created and produced. Thus, photography can be part of the force to transform space and place beyond the physical borderland.
Images do not only serve as a visual to interpret subject matter regarding marginalized issues. Still, they should be viewed through multiple lenses, models, and approaches as they get produced through multi-layered scuffles, lived experiences, and generational memory. Through the use of relevant literature, the essay also discusses images of artwork that were created on the U.S-Mexico border wall between 2011 and 2017 in response to migratory policies and further militarization of the border.
Introduction
The boundary between the United States and Mexico has long been a site of political contention, with the two countries jostling over the right to control it. But the borderlands between the two countries, though they are physically distinct, are not just political or geographical spaces: they are also artistic (Rivera, 2020). The borderlands are a series of sites where artists have explored the borderlands' human, political, and cultural complexity. And the borderlands have become a place where artists have sought to make sense of the world around them and help us understand the complexity of our world and our place in it. However, much of the stuff people remember from art across borders is the outright protest art that vehemently tackles themes like human rights, immigration, and bi-national policies. Even the fence itself has been used as a canvas for influential paintings and installations. Nevertheless, border art has continued to use the wall and the people who cross it as a concept, developing performances pieces or other multimedia works meant to challenge perceptions of the international border (Garcia, 2018). The nexus between arts, culture, and immigration have long been studied in cultural studies and the humanities. The use of art to spearhead ...

Lecture (second of three parts) for the 2018 UP Plano Board Exam Review Sessions; content credited to The City Reader (2016) and my Plan 201 learnings.
Under the banner of Cultural Geographies, Globalisation and Nationalism this lecture critically examines the effects of the new neo-liberal world economic order.
Neoliberalism supports free markets, free trade, and decentralized decision-making. Broadly speaking, neoliberalism seeks to transfer control of the economy from state to the private sector. This is a particularly timely debate in light of the current global collapse of neoliberalism.
Globalisation:
The meaning is not always clear it has something to do with the idea that we all live in one world, in what ways exactly, and is the idea valid?
Accepted that globalisation exists, the world has become financially and materially interdependent.
Debates are more likely to be about the form of globalisation, how it came into being and where it will lead.
Two major issues of globalisation are communication as the driving force of social change, and increasing dependence on mobility.
I will also deal with a few of the difficulties which appear in the course of the globalisation process and look at the accompanying discussions surrounding increasingly global cultural spaces as they concern artistic practice and the cultural industries.
I will consider the idea that the art world knows no synthetic boundaries; that it realises an actually existing globalisation and that art is the vehicle for the creolisation, hybridity and mixing of cultures that challenge the conventional in aesthetics and the hegemonic in politics.
I also want to consider the relevance of nationalism as the sites of contemporary art diversify away from the traditional metropolitan centres such as London, Berlin, or New York.
1-2) Globalization. Define globalization. What forms of globalizat.docxSONU61709
1-2) Globalization. Define globalization. What forms of globalization
are of greater interest to the business person? What forms are of
greater interest to the general person? Explain differences in the two
lists.
1-6) Impact of Technology. “Technology and innovation inevitably
lead to globalization.” Support this statement by providing at least two
recent examples.
1-9) Trade Theory. Most theories of trade do not explain why a country
might simultaneously export and import the same product. For
instance, the US is simultaneously an exporter and importer of
airplanes. What theory explains this phenomenon?
1-11) Location Theory. Using theories of industry agglomeration
explain (a) the location of business process (human resources,
accounting, etc.) outsourcing firms in Bangalore, India and (b) the
location of financial services firms in NY City.
1-13) MNC Risks. “MNCs face greater risks than purely domestic
firms.” What are some of the arguments supporting and disproving this
statement?
1-15) Centralization vs. Decentralization. Are most MNCs
centralized or decentralized? What are some pros and cons of
choosing one organizational form over another?
Extension 1) Bilateral Trade between Developed Nations
In 2005, U.S. exports to Ireland were valued at $9 billion, while
Irish exports to the U.S. totaled $28 billion. The range of U.S.
exports includes electrical components and equipment,
computers and peripherals, drugs and pharmaceuticals, and
livestock feed. Irish exports to the United States represent
approximately 20% of all Irish exports, and have roughly the
same value as Irish exports to the UK . Exports to the United
States include alcoholic beverages, chemicals and related
products, electronic data processing equipment, electrical
machinery, textiles and clothing, and glassware. Irish exports to
the United States from January to September 2006 rose by 7%
compared to the same period in 2005, while Irish imports from
the United States from January to September 2006 fell by 14%
compared to the same period in 2005.
Use theories of international trade to explain this bilateral
trade relationship. In your opinion is this a large volume of
trade?
Extension 2) Bilateral Trade and Entities.
Mexico is among the world's most open economies,
but it is dependent on trade with the U.S., which
bought about 82% of its exports in 2007. Top U.S.
exports to Mexico include electronic equipment, motor
vehicle parts, and chemicals. Top Mexican exports to
the U.S. include petroleum, cars, and electronic
equipment.
Does this list provide clues about the types of
entities conducting cross-border trade between
the US and Mexico? Explain.
Extension 3) Bilateral Trade between Developed and Developing
Nation.
Peru registered a trade surplus of $8.8 billion in 2006.
Exports reached $23.7 billion, partially as a result of high
mineral prices.
Peru's major trading partners are the U.S., China, EU,
Chile and Japan. ...

Post-Salvagism:
Choreography and Its Discontents
in the Occupied Palestinian Territories
Nicholas Rowe
Introduction
While researching dance within the Occupied Palestinian Territories, comments
made by the choreographers of local performance troupes resonated in my mind
because they exemplify how foreign hegemony controls notions of modernity. The first
was a lament: "But cant they understand that this is our contemporary dance?" It followed
the rejection of the group s application to a European contemporary dance festival, on
the basis that their dance production was not contemporary enough and that it would
be better suited to a folkloric festival. For those engaged in creative innovation in dance,
this rebuke can feel like being sent to a home for the elderly: packed off to a place where
everybody dances in circles, reminiscing about the glorious golden past of their own
particular civilization. The second comment cropped up in numerous conversations with
local dance practitioners and audiences: "I dont like the modern dance." This comment
was generally directed at any foreign or local dance production that did not fit within
nostalgically imagined impressions of dance in times gone by.
These two comments illustrate a particular problem for local cultural innovation. Be
ing denied the label "contemporary" can feel like being denied a collective cultural visa
to the twenty-first century; rejecting the term "modern" can appear to be an obstinate
yet doomed refusal to accept the passage of time. Together ...

In the past twenty years or so, students of social movements have rediscovered the importance of culture. European theorists of post-industrial movements (like Touraine or Melucci), whose works were translated into English in the 1980s, have helped to inspire researchers to rethink their commitment to mobilization and political process approaches through a rediscovery of culture. Even some theorists most associated with the mobilization paradigm (Gamson, Oberschall, McCarthy) have recognized the importance of culture in protest.
In The Art of Protest, T.V. Reed focuses on the dramatic actions of U.S. social movements. His book serves as an introduction to the movements, but also offers a new perspective. The author’s claims are modest, his goal being to reinterpret and synthesize elements already available in the large body of literature through cultural issues. By doing so, he challenges easy distinctions between culture and politics, and questions how culture works in and around movements. From “We shall overcome” to cyberculture, Reed pairs each movement with a defining cultural practice: singing with the Civil Rights movement, drama with the Black Panthers, poetry with Women’s Rights, murals with Chicano/a movements, movies with the American Indian Movement, rock music with actions against famine and apartheid, graphic arts with action against AIDS, literature with the environmental movement, and cyberculture with the Global Justice movement.
The book’s main focus is the civil rights movement, with music and religion as the forms of culture at its centre. Although measuring subjective change or a change in consciousness is a challenge, Reed believes that “freedom songs are one of the best records we have of the transformation of consciousness in the ordinary people, the masses, who took part in the movement” (p. 14). Yet music did not enter the movement spontaneously. A legacy had to be uncovered and reworked, sometimes with radical alterations, adding political content to the emotional content. “Three clusters of events
in particular are key to the rise of both the music and the movement: the Montgomery bus boycott, the student-led sit-ins, and the Albany, Georgia, movement” (p. 16). A musical group from Albany, the Freedom Singers, played a role in singing the movement’s story and raising funds through their concerts, thereby bringing the movement’s messages to the North and to young people while helping to create a network for the Freedom Summer of 1964. Freedom songs brought people together and became “litanies against fear” (p. 25). Music transformed the personal and collective identities of the
movement’s activists; it was not the only force shaping the movement’s identities, but it wa.

Abstract
Art is a powerful tool for communicating experiences and evoking emotions. It is one of the oldest forms of human communication, used to express thoughts and feelings about big and small things. The earliest known cave paintings date back more than 30,000 years. Today, art continues to express complex emotions and experiences, from the joy of seeing a beloved person to the fear of being separated from family members. This essay demonstrates that art such as murals and installations have the power to communicate, spark change, and exhibit resistance and resilience by claiming spatial ideologies through the construction of visual subjectivity. Furthermore, it aims to add layers of visual discourse by validating the role of digital photography in transforming borders. Through digital photography, the act of resistance seizes and holds the capacity to spread art beyond the place it was created and produced. Thus, photography can be part of the force to transform space and place beyond the physical borderland.
Images do not only serve as a visual to interpret subject matter regarding marginalized issues. Still, they should be viewed through multiple lenses, models, and approaches as they get produced through multi-layered scuffles, lived experiences, and generational memory. Through the use of relevant literature, the essay also discusses images of artwork that were created on the U.S-Mexico border wall between 2011 and 2017 in response to migratory policies and further militarization of the border.
Introduction
The boundary between the United States and Mexico has long been a site of political contention, with the two countries jostling over the right to control it. But the borderlands between the two countries, though they are physically distinct, are not just political or geographical spaces: they are also artistic (Rivera, 2020). The borderlands are a series of sites where artists have explored the borderlands' human, political, and cultural complexity. And the borderlands have become a place where artists have sought to make sense of the world around them and help us understand the complexity of our world and our place in it. However, much of the stuff people remember from art across borders is the outright protest art that vehemently tackles themes like human rights, immigration, and bi-national policies. Even the fence itself has been used as a canvas for influential paintings and installations. Nevertheless, border art has continued to use the wall and the people who cross it as a concept, developing performances pieces or other multimedia works meant to challenge perceptions of the international border (Garcia, 2018). The nexus between arts, culture, and immigration have long been studied in cultural studies and the humanities. The use of art to spearhead ...

Lecture (second of three parts) for the 2018 UP Plano Board Exam Review Sessions; content credited to The City Reader (2016) and my Plan 201 learnings.
Under the banner of Cultural Geographies, Globalisation and Nationalism this lecture critically examines the effects of the new neo-liberal world economic order.
Neoliberalism supports free markets, free trade, and decentralized decision-making. Broadly speaking, neoliberalism seeks to transfer control of the economy from state to the private sector. This is a particularly timely debate in light of the current global collapse of neoliberalism.
Globalisation:
The meaning is not always clear it has something to do with the idea that we all live in one world, in what ways exactly, and is the idea valid?
Accepted that globalisation exists, the world has become financially and materially interdependent.
Debates are more likely to be about the form of globalisation, how it came into being and where it will lead.
Two major issues of globalisation are communication as the driving force of social change, and increasing dependence on mobility.
I will also deal with a few of the difficulties which appear in the course of the globalisation process and look at the accompanying discussions surrounding increasingly global cultural spaces as they concern artistic practice and the cultural industries.
I will consider the idea that the art world knows no synthetic boundaries; that it realises an actually existing globalisation and that art is the vehicle for the creolisation, hybridity and mixing of cultures that challenge the conventional in aesthetics and the hegemonic in politics.
I also want to consider the relevance of nationalism as the sites of contemporary art diversify away from the traditional metropolitan centres such as London, Berlin, or New York.
1-2) Globalization. Define globalization. What forms of globalizat.docxSONU61709
1-2) Globalization. Define globalization. What forms of globalization
are of greater interest to the business person? What forms are of
greater interest to the general person? Explain differences in the two
lists.
1-6) Impact of Technology. “Technology and innovation inevitably
lead to globalization.” Support this statement by providing at least two
recent examples.
1-9) Trade Theory. Most theories of trade do not explain why a country
might simultaneously export and import the same product. For
instance, the US is simultaneously an exporter and importer of
airplanes. What theory explains this phenomenon?
1-11) Location Theory. Using theories of industry agglomeration
explain (a) the location of business process (human resources,
accounting, etc.) outsourcing firms in Bangalore, India and (b) the
location of financial services firms in NY City.
1-13) MNC Risks. “MNCs face greater risks than purely domestic
firms.” What are some of the arguments supporting and disproving this
statement?
1-15) Centralization vs. Decentralization. Are most MNCs
centralized or decentralized? What are some pros and cons of
choosing one organizational form over another?
Extension 1) Bilateral Trade between Developed Nations
In 2005, U.S. exports to Ireland were valued at $9 billion, while
Irish exports to the U.S. totaled $28 billion. The range of U.S.
exports includes electrical components and equipment,
computers and peripherals, drugs and pharmaceuticals, and
livestock feed. Irish exports to the United States represent
approximately 20% of all Irish exports, and have roughly the
same value as Irish exports to the UK . Exports to the United
States include alcoholic beverages, chemicals and related
products, electronic data processing equipment, electrical
machinery, textiles and clothing, and glassware. Irish exports to
the United States from January to September 2006 rose by 7%
compared to the same period in 2005, while Irish imports from
the United States from January to September 2006 fell by 14%
compared to the same period in 2005.
Use theories of international trade to explain this bilateral
trade relationship. In your opinion is this a large volume of
trade?
Extension 2) Bilateral Trade and Entities.
Mexico is among the world's most open economies,
but it is dependent on trade with the U.S., which
bought about 82% of its exports in 2007. Top U.S.
exports to Mexico include electronic equipment, motor
vehicle parts, and chemicals. Top Mexican exports to
the U.S. include petroleum, cars, and electronic
equipment.
Does this list provide clues about the types of
entities conducting cross-border trade between
the US and Mexico? Explain.
Extension 3) Bilateral Trade between Developed and Developing
Nation.
Peru registered a trade surplus of $8.8 billion in 2006.
Exports reached $23.7 billion, partially as a result of high
mineral prices.
Peru's major trading partners are the U.S., China, EU,
Chile and Japan. ...

Post-Salvagism:
Choreography and Its Discontents
in the Occupied Palestinian Territories
Nicholas Rowe
Introduction
While researching dance within the Occupied Palestinian Territories, comments
made by the choreographers of local performance troupes resonated in my mind
because they exemplify how foreign hegemony controls notions of modernity. The first
was a lament: "But cant they understand that this is our contemporary dance?" It followed
the rejection of the group s application to a European contemporary dance festival, on
the basis that their dance production was not contemporary enough and that it would
be better suited to a folkloric festival. For those engaged in creative innovation in dance,
this rebuke can feel like being sent to a home for the elderly: packed off to a place where
everybody dances in circles, reminiscing about the glorious golden past of their own
particular civilization. The second comment cropped up in numerous conversations with
local dance practitioners and audiences: "I dont like the modern dance." This comment
was generally directed at any foreign or local dance production that did not fit within
nostalgically imagined impressions of dance in times gone by.
These two comments illustrate a particular problem for local cultural innovation. Be
ing denied the label "contemporary" can feel like being denied a collective cultural visa
to the twenty-first century; rejecting the term "modern" can appear to be an obstinate
yet doomed refusal to accept the passage of time. Together ...

The Fascinating World of Bats: Unveiling the Secrets of the Night
Bats, the mysterious creatures of the night, have long been a source of fascination and fear for humans. With their eerie squeaks and fluttering wings, they have captured our imagination and sparked our curiosity. Yet, beyond the myths and legends, bats are fascinating creatures that play a vital role in our ecosystem.
There are over 1,300 species of bats, ranging from the tiny Kitti's hog-nosed bat to the majestic flying foxes. These winged mammals are found in almost every corner of the globe, from the scorching deserts to the lush rainforests. Their diversity is a testament to their adaptability and resilience.
Bats are insectivores, feeding on a vast array of insects, from mosquitoes to beetles. A single bat can consume up to 1,200 insects in an hour, making them a crucial part of our pest control system. By preying on insects that damage crops, bats save the agricultural industry billions of dollars each year.
But bats are not just useful; they are also fascinating creatures. Their ability to fly in complete darkness, using echolocation to navigate and hunt, is a remarkable feat of evolution. They are also social animals, living in colonies and communicating with each other through a complex system of calls and body language.
Despite their importance, bats face numerous threats, from habitat destruction to climate change. Many species are endangered, and conservation efforts are necessary to protect these magnificent creatures.
In conclusion, bats are more than just creatures of the night; they are a vital part of our ecosystem, playing a crucial role in maintaining the balance of nature. By learning more about these fascinating animals, we can appreciate their importance and work to protect them for generations to come. So, let us embrace the beauty and mystery of bats, and celebrate their unique place in our world.

2. “ Shilling (1993, 1997) described the deliberate modification of one’s physical size, shape, appearance, or ability for movement as purposive ‘body projects’, and contended that such projects are integral in constructing and representing identity over the life course.” (Atkinson 219) (Unk08)
3. “ Tattoos, along with scarification, body piercing, and other forms of body modification, are seen as universal features of ‘primitive’ society. These practices have been found in the earliest archaeological records from the Upper Palaeolithic era and are understood to be visible indicators of age, social status, family position, tribal affliction and so on.” (DeMello 10) (Western tattooing traditions stem from) “Roots in Japanese, Polynesian, and Melanesian (i.e., “tribal”) tattooing, as well as Chicano street tattooing.” (15) “ Contemporary tattooing has evolved from a practice that was originally imported from the islands of Polynesia and later transformed into a form of working-class folk art.” (10) “ For the majority of the twentieth century tattoos were read as an embodied mark of otherness and were commonly associated with criminality, mental illness, and deviant subculture groups.” (Kosut 73) Contextualizing Tattoo Culture
4. What is Tattoo Flash? “ Usually several designs are placed on each sheet. These sheets are displayed in tattoo studios on the walls, on racks or in books. Customers can browse through these pictures to choose a tattoo or to get ideas as to what they want.” (Joey Ortega, Kingpin Tattoos- Harker Heights Texas) (REBEL8 – BLOG) (Hudson) (Prick Magazine)
5. Tattoo Regret “ A majority of Americans with tattoos (83%) do not regret getting them, while 17% do feel regret. The survey found that regret for getting a tattoo was highest among tattooed Republicans (24%) and among those living in the South (21%). And, the reason cited most often for feeling regret about getting tattoos was "because of the person's name in the tattoo" (16%).” (Tattoo Facts & Statistics)
7. “ The tattoo community is a real community in the sense that it is experienced by tattooed people across the country; and yet it is differentiated by class and status among other features, such that it often seems to exist in pieces more than a whole.” (DeMello 3) “ Note the changes in demographics and the evolution of the tattoo itself, from a standardized, formulaic design executed by a craftsman to a custom-designed, fine art image executed by a professionally trained artist.” (4) A Modernized Perspective of Tattooing (Tv Guide) (Unknown)
