    Black Culture, Inc. (eBook, ePUB)
    A surprising and fascinating look at how Black culture has been leveraged by corporate America. Open the brochure for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, and you'll see logos for corporations like American Express. Visit the website for the Apollo Theater, and you'll notice acknowledgments to corporations like Coca Cola and Citibank. The Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial and the National Museum of African American History and Culture, owe their very existence to large corporate donations from companies like General Motors. And while we can easily make sense of the need for such funding to keep cultural spaces afloat, less obvious are the reasons that corporations give to them. In Black Culture, Inc., Patricia A. Banks interrogates the notion that such giving is completely altruistic, and argues for a deeper understanding of the hidden transactions being conducted that render corporate America dependent on Black culture. Drawing on a range of sources, such as public relations and advertising texts on corporate cultural patronage and observations at sponsored cultural events, Banks argues that Black cultural patronage profits firms by signaling that they value diversity, equity, and inclusion. By functioning in this manner, support of Black cultural initiatives affords these companies something called "diversity capital," an increasingly valuable commodity in today's business landscape. While this does not necessarily detract from the social good that cultural patronage does, it reveals its secret cost: ethnic community support may serve to obscure an otherwise poor track record with social justice. Banks deftly weaves innovative theory with detailed observations and a discerning critical gaze at the various agendas infiltrating memorials, museums, and music festivals meant to celebrate Black culture. At a time when accusations of discriminatory practices are met with immediate legal and social condemnation, the insights offered here are urgent and necessary.

    Alvin Ailey - An Evening with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater
    In dieser brillanten Studioaufnahme bringt das „Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre“, die kühnste und aufregendste Compagnie des Landes, seinen unverwechselbaren Stil zu Ihnen nach Hause – ungestüm, grell, rasant und dennoch anmutig und poetisch. „Divining“ war Judith Jamisons erste große Arbeit als Choreographin für Alvin Ailey. Der Tanz evoziert ein starkes Gefühl afrikanischen Stammesrituals und wurde vertont mit eindringlichen, rhythmischen Trommeln. „Revelations“ bringt Aileys tiefe Verwurzelung im Süden der USA zum Ausdruck. Hier erleben Sie seine lebendigen „Blood Memories“ an den Blues, an Spirituals, Gospelmusik, Ragtime und Folksongs sowie an das harte Leben der schwarzen Bevölkerung im Süden während der Depression. Zu Tönen des modernen Jazz spielt „The Stack-Up“ im heutigen Harlem. Sie werden Zeuge der grausamen Realität des Straßenlebens, wenn ein junger Mann von Drogen zerstört wird. „Cry“ wurde 1971 von Alvin Ailey für Judith Jamison choreographiert und ist eines seiner berühmtesten Stücke. Das Werk war ein Geburtstagsgeschenk für seine Mutter und ist Aileys Tribut an schwarze Frauen. Man kommt nicht umhin tief bewegt zu sein von dem Kampf, der Wut und – vor allem – dem Fest.

    A History of Dance on Screen
    In this revelatory new documentary, director Reiner E. Moritz poses the question: How has the media influenced dance in the twentieth century and vice versa? Over this period an extensive archive of beautiful choreography, performed by the finest dancers has accumulated on film and television, resulting in a major dispersion of dance through the media. In addition, new art forms such as dance movies and ballet films have emerged from this development in moving images, where dance is created specifically for the camera. “A History Of Dance On Screen” contains an impressive amount of archive footage featuring the greatest dancers and choreographers of the twentieth and twenty first centuries, framed by in-depth interviews with great personalities of the contemporary dance scene – featuring Alvin Ailey, Pina Bausch, Maurice Béjart, Matthew Bourne, Margot Fonteyn, Martha Graham, John Neumeier, Rudolf Nureyev, Anna Pavlova, Roland Petit, Sasha Waltz and many others.
