[Review Of] Marjorie Harness Goodwin. He-Said-She-Said: Talk As Social Organization Among Black Children, Maryln Zupicich
[Review Of] Marjorie Harness Goodwin. He-Said-She-Said: Talk As Social Organization Among Black Children, Maryln Zupicich
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
The author, acting both as ethnographer and sociolinguist, recorded conversations of black children in a working-class neighborhood of Philadelphia over a period of one-and-a-half years. She acted as observer of children's games and talk as they interacted with their peers in their after school surroundings. Goodwin argues that peer setting provides the best opportunity to observe children as they develop social organization, and she challenges the traditional view of anthropology that perceives children as being in the process of internalizing adult values in order to integrate into the social world.
[Review Of] Thomas Vennum, Jr. Wild Rice And The Ojibway People, David M. Gradwohl
[Review Of] Thomas Vennum, Jr. Wild Rice And The Ojibway People, David M. Gradwohl
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
Everything you wanted to know and lots more you never thought to ask about North American wild rice are included in this extensive tome. The plant is labelled Zizania aquatica in the Linnaean nomenclature; the Ojibway called it manoomin. The author discusses the scientific classification of wild rice, its germination, growth cycle, habitat, and enemies. He also takes up the varied uses of wild rice as food: its nutritional value, methods of preparing and cooking the grain, and the reactions of Euro-Americans to this native plant which is exceedingly rich in carbohydrates and converts efficiently to energy in the body. …
[Review Of] Miriam Makeba And James Hall. Makeba: My Story, Nancy Hellner
[Review Of] Miriam Makeba And James Hall. Makeba: My Story, Nancy Hellner
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
Like much of her music, Miriam Makeba's autobiography is both personal and political. As it details the story of a young girl's coming of age and search for identity, it simultaneously records the history of a country struggling for independence. In the prologue, Makeba compares herself to a South African bird soaring above the horror of apartheid (aparthood) which was instituted in 1947. As she recounts the details of war and injustice in direct, understated, idiom-filled prose, and as she intertwines details of ancient customs with the realities of modern technology, Makeba suggests that music best expresses the tragic subject …

[Review Of] Bienvenido L. Lumbera. Tagalog Poetry: 1570-1898, Cruz Skinner
[Review Of] Bienvenido L. Lumbera. Tagalog Poetry: 1570-1898, Cruz Skinner
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
Bienvenido Lumbera, in his Preface to this survey of Tagalog poetry, apologizes for the shortcomings of his book. Originally written twenty years ago as a doctoral dissertation, it does not take into account new information on Tagalog poetry and its discussion of precolonial poetry does not include new data on the oral poetry of contemporary Filipino groups. "I have bailed myself out," say Lumbera, "by persuading myself that many scholarly sins could be forgiven under the rubric of 'pioneering.''' And indeed these omissions can be forgiven for what the reader gains in return is a pioneering study describing and analyzing …

Commentary, Nick Webb
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
These remarks are adapted from part of the session at the 1990 NAEA conference in Kansas City that debated the proposition: “The Caucus on Social Theory is Neither Social nor Theoretical.” Webb subtitled his statement: "As the imaginary wine bottles said to the vintner - we're with you in theory but you can't cork us."
[Review Of] Charles Green And Basil Wilson. The Struggle For Black Empowerment In New York City, Otis L. Scott
[Review Of] Charles Green And Basil Wilson. The Struggle For Black Empowerment In New York City, Otis L. Scott
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
This book by Charles Green and Basil Wilson is most informative. The authors, a sociologist and a political scientist respectively, draw upon the research and reporting methods of their disciplines in bringing forth a comprehensive interdisciplinary social science examination of the melodrama that is politics in New York City.

Informal Education. Sociocultural Expression. And Symbolic Meaning In Popular Immigration Music Text, Jose Macias
Explorations in Ethnic Studies
One February morning as I noted the events of the primary school talent show, a sixth-grade boy belted out this song made popular in two countries by the Mexican rock group, Los Bukis. It was 1987, and I was doing fieldwork in a rural Mexican immigrant-sending community I call San Felipe, for an ethnography of families and their children who emigrated from Mexico to the United States[2]

[Review Of] Trinh T. Minh-Ha. Woman, Native, Other: Writing Postcoloniality And Feminism, Patricia Grimshaw
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
In Woman, Native, Other, Trinh T. Minh-ha has taken on an ambitious task, which is to explain something of the problems confronting non-Western women writers who publish and are subjected to critiques within the established paradigms of Western scholarly discourses. Must she and her fellows position themselves as "writer of color," "woman writer," or "woman of color," she asks, as she proceeds to display the boundaries others place upon their freedom to create their own realities and establish their distinctive voices. Whereas other women theorists of postcolonialism and feminism have challenged Western-conventions largely within the linguistic and stylistic conventions of …
[Review Of] Silvester J. Brito. The Way Of A Peyote Roadman, D. C. Cole
[Review Of] Silvester J. Brito. The Way Of A Peyote Roadman, D. C. Cole
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
The Way of a Peyote Roadman is a work which is certain to stir controversy in a number of academic circles. Silvester J. Brito holds a Ph.D. in folklore and anthropology from Indiana University. The book begins with a personal affirmation of the author's belief in the power of sorcery, based on his personal experiences culminating in a peyote ritual curing ceremony.
[Review Of] Edward H. Spicer. People Of Pascua, Gretchen Harvey
[Review Of] Edward H. Spicer. People Of Pascua, Gretchen Harvey
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
On the surface, People of Pascua appears to be a focused anthropological field study limited to a narrow period of time. It should not surprise those who are familiar with Edward Spicer's preeminent scholarship on acculturation, however, that things are not always what they seem to be. It is true that this study concerning the Yaquis, begun in 1941, stems from Spicer's first field experience as a graduate student. Yet, People of Pascua has broader implications that go beyond the lives of the Yaquis who made Pascua Village, Arizona, their home. Spicer's methodology included biography as a means to better …
[Review Of] Peter M. Whiteley. Deliberate Acts: Changing Hopi Culture Through The Oraibi Split, David M. Gradwohl
[Review Of] Peter M. Whiteley. Deliberate Acts: Changing Hopi Culture Through The Oraibi Split, David M. Gradwohl
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
In this volume, Peter Whiteley, an anthropologist, probes into the reasons for the split in Oraibi, largest of the thirteen Hopi Indian communities in northeastern Arizona, early in this century. Oraibi was a thriving village in 1540 at the time of Coronado's entrada into the southwest; archaeological evidence suggests that the village was settled at least four or five centuries earlier. In 1906, one group of villagers angrily left or were forced out of Oraibi and established a settlement known as Bacavi. Previous studies have portrayed the Bacavi Hopi as "hostiles," that is, culturally traditional people who opposed U.S. goverment …
[Review Of] Margaret B. Wilkerson, Ed. 9 Plays By Black Women, Opal Palmer Adisa
[Review Of] Margaret B. Wilkerson, Ed. 9 Plays By Black Women, Opal Palmer Adisa
Explorations in Sights and Sounds
Black women writers, primarily novelists, have taken center stage for the last two decades, but black women playwrights have not been given similar coverage. The explanation, in part, is that plays are often only published after successful productions, and the plays by the majority of black women have only been produced in local, small theaters. Consequently, their works have not been given serious critical attention. Margaret Wilkerson's 9 Plays by Black Women showcases plays by established and well celebrated black female playwrights, like Alice Childress, Lorraine Hansberry, Ntozake Shange, and Beah Richards as well as less well-known playwrights whose works …
Vcu Voice (1990-08-14)
VCU Voice, 1988-1998
VCU Today, the University’s first official administrative organ, began as a somewhat irregular monthly publication but moved to a bi-weekly newspaper format in the 1980s. The newspaper changed its name to VCU Voice in 1988 and ten years later it appeared under the title UniverCity News. As it neared the end of its run as a physical newspaper, the publication became simply VCU News. These four publications were essentially the same periodical published under different titles by the Office of University Relations. VCU News appeared online for the first time in 2002.
