Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electric and electrifying: Formula E is reinventing motor sport. Things here aren't calm and quiet - even if the race cars competing in the world's first e-racing series serve up a unique low-decibel sound. They are more reminiscent of Star Wars or other futuristic sci-fi analogies. Fans of traditional motor sport are engaged in hefty debate. But the thrilling racing series established by charismatic pioneer Alejandro Agag is winning over cities around the world and the hearts of entirely new audiences through breathtaking technology, exciting sport, family-friendly entertainment, and famous names. Sure, Senna, Prost, Piquet and Villeneuve hearken back to a long and storied history of motor sport, but the young series' recipe for success is more nuanced and the number of ingredients far greater. After four seasons with the first generation of vehicles, the pioneering years of Formula E are drawing to a close - four seasons with 45 riveting races, epic face-off, technological advances, lifestyle events and building bridges with people from across the globe. SELLING POINT: * Formula E - the world's first fully electric international single-seater street racing series - consists of ten teams and twenty drivers, competing on the international stage.

Download or read book Race and Role written by Rena M. Heinrich and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2023-06-16 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed-race Asian American plays are often overlooked for their failure to fit smoothly into static racial categories, rendering mixed-race drama inconsequential in conversations about race and performance. Since the nineteenth century, however, these plays have long advocated for the social significance of multiracial Asian people. Race and Role: The Mixed-Race Experience in American Drama traces the shifting identities of multiracial Asian figures in theater from the late-nineteenth century to the present day and explores the ways that mixed-race Asian identity transforms our understanding of race. Mixed-Asian playwrights harness theater’s generative power to enact performances of “double liminality” and expose the absurd tenacity with which society clings to a tenuous racial scaffolding.

Book Synopsis Performing Race and Torture on the Early Modern Stage by : Ayanna Thompson
Download or read book Performing Race and Torture on the Early Modern Stage written by Ayanna Thompson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Performing Race and Torture on the Early Modern Stage provides the first sustained reading of Restoration plays through a performance theory lens. This approach shows that an analysis of the conjoined performances of torture and race not only reveals the early modern interest in the nature of racial identity, but also how race was initially coded in a paradoxical fashion as both essentially fixed and socially constructed. An examination of scenes of torture provides the most effective way to unearth these seemingly contradictory representations of race because depictions of torture often interrogate the incongruous desire to substitute the visible and manipulable materiality of the body for the more illusive performative nature of identity. In turn, Performing Race and Torture on the Early Modern Stage challenges the long-standing assumption that early modern conceptions of race were radically different in their fluidity from post-Enlightenment ones by demonstrating how many of the debates we continue to have about the nature of racial identity were engendered by these seventeenth-century performances.
Book Synopsis Critical Race Media Literacy by : Jayne Cubbage
Download or read book Critical Race Media Literacy written by Jayne Cubbage and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-21 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers deeper exploration and advancement of critical race media literacy, a concept which fuses the genres of media literacy and critical media literacy with critical race theory to bring a new and salient frame to the discussion of media literacy across all levels of education in today’s globalized, race-based, and media-saturated climate. Bridging the gap in research that has not addressed the ways in which media is a conduit of racial dialogue and ideology, the book brings together a diverse group of scholars that explore their perspectives on critical race media literacy as it is experienced from the interface and consumption of a variety of media texts and social phenomena. Topics addressed include news literacy, children’s literature, Black political movements, media protests, and ethnic rock—Critical Race Media Literacy addresses these topics within existing media literacy contexts to enhance media literacy scholarship and educational pedagogy. This book will provide a timely and important resource not only for scholars and students of media literacy and media education but also for educators working in diverse learning settings.
Book Synopsis Richard E. Norman and Race Filmmaking by : Barbara Tepa Lupack
Download or read book Richard E. Norman and Race Filmmaking written by Barbara Tepa Lupack and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-08 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of the early 1900s southern-born, white filmmaker and the silent films he created for black audiences. In the early 1900s, so-called race filmmakers set out to produce black-oriented pictures to counteract the racist caricatures that had dominated cinema from its inception. Richard E. Norman, a southern-born white filmmaker, was one such pioneer. From humble beginnings as a roving “home talent” filmmaker, recreating photoplays that starred local citizens, Norman would go on to produce high-quality feature-length race pictures. Together with his better-known contemporaries Oscar Micheaux and Noble and George Johnson, Richard E. Norman helped to define early race filmmaking. Making use of unique archival resources, including Norman’s personal and professional correspondence, detailed distribution records, and newly discovered original shooting scripts, this book offers a vibrant portrait of race in early cinema. “Grounded in impressive archival research, Barbara Lupack’s book offers a long overdue history of Richard E. Norman and the filmmaking company he established early in the twentieth century. Lupack’s ability to describe Norman’s films—and the work that went into their production—reanimates them for readers and stresses their role in shaping early African American cinematic representation.” —Paula Massood, author of Making a Promised Land: Harlem in 20th-Century Photography and Film “Thoroughly researched and crisply written . . . The first book-length work on Norman, Lupack’s monograph clearly delineates the Norman Company’s importance . . . [Richard E. Norman and Race Filmmaking’s] most profound contribution lies, perhaps, in how it illuminates the fraught economics of race filmmaking.” —Journal of American History “Lupack’s book provides a wealth of archival information about this vibrant moment in film history . . . [This] is a solid contribution to regional film studies and race film business practice, and will appeal to scholars, students, and film-buffs alike.” —Black Camera
