"Listen To The Wild Discord": Jazz In The Chicago Defender And The Louisiana Weekly, 1925-1929, Sarah A. Waits May 2013

"Listen To The Wild Discord": Jazz In The Chicago Defender And The Louisiana Weekly, 1925-1929, Sarah A. Waits

LSU New Orleans Theses and Dissertations

This essay will use the views of two African American newspaper columnists, E. Belfield Spriggins of the Louisiana Weekly and Dave Peyton of the Chicago Defender, to argue that though New Orleans and Chicago both occupied a primary place in the history of jazz, in many ways jazz was initially met with ambivalence and suspicion. The struggle between the desire to highlight black achievement in music and the effort to adhere to tenets of middle class respectability play out in their columns. Despite historiographical writings to the contrary, these issues of the influence of jazz music on society were …

Agitprop In Soviet Russia, Kevin Brown Apr 2013

Agitprop In Soviet Russia, Kevin Brown

Constructing the Past

Throughout the Soviet Union, propaganda could be seen everywhere - from art galleries to movies to street comers, Russian culture was flooded with pro-Bolshevik sentiments. Agitprop theatre, unlike other propaganda that was inaccessible to the working class, effectively appealed to and indoctrinated Russia's lower class citizens.


Iranian Democratization Part I: A Historical Case Study Of The Iranian Green Movement, Victor H. Sundquist Apr 2013

Iranian Democratization Part I: A Historical Case Study Of The Iranian Green Movement, Victor H. Sundquist

Journal of Strategic Security

The 2009 Iranian Presidential Elections represented one of the most contentious displays of the evolving Iranian democracy since the 1979 Islamic Revolution that led to the removal of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi – the nation’s last shah. This tumultuous political event not only exposed a growing rift between the political and religious ruling elite in that country; it also led to the emergence of an opposition movement that would later be known as the Green Revolution. Viewed through a Western political lens, this revolution represented yet another opportunity for the demise of the ruling Iranian Islamic Regime. Recently, some scholars …


Iranian Democratization Part Ii: The Green Movement - Revolution Or Civil Rights Movement?, Victor H. Sundquist Apr 2013

Iranian Democratization Part Ii: The Green Movement - Revolution Or Civil Rights Movement?, Victor H. Sundquist

Journal of Strategic Security

The fundamental question of whether or not the Green Movement’s opposition leaders were successful in their attempts to change the political landscape in Iran first lies in understanding the premise behind the organization and secondly recognizing the actual goals of the leadership. Consequently, this article analyzes these questions as a framework for developing a comparative analysis between revolutions and civil rights movements as a means to understand both the intent and outcomes of the Green Movement. From this analysis, lessons learned are put forth as a means to establish a series of recommendations for future Western political engagements with Iran. …
