Beschreibung

Colonial Resistance explores how indigenous populations worldwide met the challenges of colonialism, moving beyond simple narratives of domination to reveal strategies of resistance that encompassed political negotiation, cultural preservation, and economic adaptation. The book examines how power dynamics played out in different colonial contexts and highlights the cultural resilience demonstrated by indigenous groups. For example, many groups strategically adapted their economies to maintain some level of independence. The book argues that indigenous resistance was not a uniform response but a complex, adaptive process shaped by specific historical and environmental factors. Analyzing armed conflicts, political negotiations, and cultural revitalization movements, the book demonstrates the diverse approaches taken by indigenous groups. It draws on a wide range of primary and secondary sources to support its analysis, providing a nuanced perspective on world history. Structured in three parts, the book begins by defining key concepts, then examines various resistance strategies across different regions and periods, such as the Zulu Wars, analyzing their long-term impacts. By emphasizing indigenous agency and adaptability, Colonial Resistance offers valuable insights for anyone interested in indigenous history, colonial studies, and the pursuit of social justice.

    Winner of the 2024 Philip Brett Award, sponsored by the LGBTQ Study Group of the American Musicological Society (AMS)The legacy of Black queer composer, arranger, and pianist Billy Strayhorn (1915–1967) hovers at the edge of canonical jazz narratives. Queer Arrangements explores the ways in which Strayhorn's identity as an openly gay Black jazz musician shaped his career, including the creative roles he could assume and the dynamics between himself and his collaborators, most famously Duke Ellington, but also iconic singers such as Lena Horne and Ella Fitzgerald. This new portrait of Strayhorn combines critical, historically-situated close readings of selected recordings, scores, and performances with biography and cultural theory to pursue alternative interpretive jazz possibilities, Black queer historical routes, and sounds. By looking at jazz history through the instrument(s) of Strayhorn's queer arrangements, this book sheds new light on his music and on jazz collaboration at midcentury.

    Growing up, Mickey Rowe was told that he couldn’t enter the mainstream world.  
     
    He was iced out by classmates and colleagues, infantilized by well-meaning theatre directors, barred from even earning a minimum wage. Why? Because he is autistic.  
     
    Fearlessly Different: An Autistic Actor’s Journey to Broadway’s Biggest Stage is Mickey Rowe’s inspiring story. As an autistic and legally blind person, it was always made clear to Mickey the many things he was apparently incapable of  
    doing. But Mickey did them all anyway—and he succeeded because of, not in spite of, his autism. He became the first autistic actor to play the lead role in the play The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, landed the title role in the  
    play Amadeus, cocreated the theatre/philanthropy company Arts on the Waterfront, and founded the National Disability Theatre. Mickey faced untold obstacles along the way, but his story ends in triumph.  
     
    Many people feel they are locked out of the world of autism—that it’s impossible to even begin to understand. In Fearlessly Different, Mickey guides readers to that world while also helping those with autism to feel seen and understood. And he  
    shows all people—autistic and nonautistic alike—that the things that make us different are often our biggest strengths.
