Includes bibliographical references.Accompanying a groundbreaking exhibition originating at the Baltimore Museum of Art, this book captures the extraordinary influence of hip hop, which has driven innovations in music, visual and performing arts, fashion, and technology and grown into a global phenomenon since its emergence in the 1970s. It features approximately 70 objects by both established and emerging artists, design houses, streetwear icons and musicians working in a wide range of mediums to demonstrate hip hop's proliferation from the street to the runway, the studio to the museum gallery, and countless sites in between. The exhibition also explores how hip hop has and continues to challenge structures of power, dominant cultural narratives, and political and social systems of oppression.

Death in Salem : the private lives behind the 1692 witch hunt / by Foulds, Diane E.(CARDINAL)528293;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 269-273) and index.Preface : a cauldron of discontent : the pressures that drove a tranquil village to combustion -- The accusers : Elizabeth Booth, Richard Carrier, Sarah Churchill -- Elizabeth Hubbard, John Indian, Mercy Lewis, Elizabeth Parris, Ann Putnam Jr., Margaret Rule, Susannah Sheldon, Mercy Short, Martha Sprague, Mary Walcott, Mary Warren, Mary Watkins, And Abigail Williams -- The victims : Bridget Bishop, George Burroughs, Martha Carrier, Giles Corey, Martha Corey, Lydia Dustin, Mary Easty, Ann Foster, Sarah Good, Elizabeth Howe, George Jacobs, Susannah Martin, Rebecca Nurse, Sarah Osborne, Alice Parker, Mary Parker, John Proctor, Ann Pudeator, Wilmot Reed, Margaret Scott, Roger Toothaker, Samuel Wardwell, Sarah Wildes, and John Willard -- The clergy : Thomas Barnard, Francis Dane, John Hale, John Higginson, Deodat Lawson, Cotton Mather, Increase Mather, Joshua Moody, Nicholas Noyes, Samuel Parris, and Samuel Willard -- The judges : Jonathan Corwin, Bartholomew Gedney, John Hathorne, John Richards, Nathaniel Saltonstall, Peter Sargeant, Samuel Sewall, William Stoughton, and Wait Still Winthrop -- The ruling elite : Thomas Brattle, Simon Bradstreet, Robert Calef, Thomas Danforth, Philip English, Sir William Phips, and Britain's King William and Queen Mary -- Conclusion : did seventeenth-century living conditions predispose English settlers to witch hunts.This is the first book to explore the tragic personal lives of the leading players in Salem's witchcraft frenzy. Salem witchcraft will always have a magnetic pull on the American psyche. During the 1692 witch trials, more than 150 people were arrested. An estimated 25 million Americans, including the author, are descended from the twenty individuals executed. What happened to our ancestors? This book takes a look at this complex time, by examining the lives of the witch trial participants from a personal perspective. Massachusetts settlers led difficult lives; every player in the Salem drama endured hardships barely imaginable today. Mercy Short, one of the "bewitched" girls, watched as Indians butchered her parents; Puritan minister Cotton Mather outlived all but three of his fifteen children. Such tragedies shaped behavior and, as the author argues, ultimately played a part in the witch hunt's outcome. A compelling "who's who" to Salem witchcraft, this work profiles each of these historical personalities as it asks: Why was this person targeted?

"LaToya Watkins's Perish follows four members of the Turner clan: Julie B., a woman who regrets her wasted youth and the time spent under Helen Jean's thumb; Alex, a police officer grappling with a dark and twisted past; Jan, mother of two, who yearns to go to school and leave Jerusalem and all of its trauma behind for good; And Lydia, a woman whose marriage is falling apart because her body can't seem to stay pregnant; as they're called home to say goodbye to their mother and grandmother, Helen Jean.

With powerful, sharp prose and a sense of place that is wholly immersive, offering a nuanced look into black communites in Texas, this beautiful yet heart-wrenching debut novel will pull you in and drop you into the world LaToya has masterfully crafted within the pages"--
