Where does the screenshot of when I got secretly recorded and then relentessly attacked by right wing groups fit in the tenure file?

Funny thing I am so legit proud of the student for his cunning and activisim. I told Fox News when a reporter emailed me that the class was about networking and political activism. I let them know how proud I was of the student for getting me to consent to record "to help him study" and then turn it into fuel for an online harrassment attack (he didn't reall

Top Mix (curated playlist) CW: Blackface

A minstrel, often performing in blackface, Miller influenced the country swing that would help shape rock and roll. Many country and rock stars have covered his music. Hank Williams 1922 Lovesick Blues, Merl Haggard, and Van Halen. Emmet Miller is probably the most important American musician you never heard of. His blackface and deadication to racist genre

All the Best

The jump blues out west and the country swing in the south draw from the same deep well of Bessie Smith. Smith did try a pivot to swing in 1937 but went back to Blues before here life gto cut tragically cut short in two automobile accidents.

All American Award Concert

The other precursor to Rock and Roll was R&B, first called Race Music, which was influenced by jump blues, what many people today call swing music. Lionel Hampton, especially his 1942 hit Flying Home. The up-tempo had the signature backbeat that lives on in rock today. The jump jazz influence was real popular on the West Coast and you can hear much of the ro

"Typewriter rodeo" tells the tale of four friends who write free improv poetry for people on typewriters. The grup heads out to events and conferences, asks for an idea and then the keys start chomping
