  Introduction to Consent Culture...

  Enjoy audio of the introduction to the book Consent Culture and Teen Films: Adolescent Sexuality in Teen Films read to you by the author. 
  Teen films of the 1980s were notorious for treating consent as irrelevant with scenes of boys spying in girls' locker rooms and tricking girls into sex. Contemporary movies, on the other hand, now routinely prioritize consent, ensuring date rape is no longer a joke and girls' desires are celebrated. Yet, sexual consent remains a problematic and often elusive ideal in teen films. 
  The introduction to the book Consent Culture and Teen Films: Adolescent Sexuality in US Movies demonstrates how teen films throughout the last several decades have shifted from trivializing nonconsent to emphasizing affirmative consent, or “yes means yes.” In doing so, they have adapted to “consent culture,” the cultural prioritization of obtaining clear verbal consent in all interactions—particularly sexual ones. 
  This chapter provides a historical context for how consent culture developed as a response to rape culture and traces how affirmative consent gained strength through legislation related to Title IX and sexual assault on college campuses between the 1990s and today. 
  Yet, at the same time, Meek reveals how teen films continue to expose how affirmative consent does not protect youth from unwanted and unpleasant sexual encounters. In the genre, we are confronted by innumerable problematic aspects of consent in practice—youth say yes when they clearly feel no; they insist on a consent and agency adults deem invalid due to their age; and they regret their sexual experiences. 
  While consent culture has provided some of the language during cinematic moments, it is strikingly evident that those words often fall short. Consent, it turns out, has not been the panacea we had hoped—that is, at least, not according to teen films.

  Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark...

  In the first decade of the twenty-first century, Kanye West created the most compelling body of pop music by an American artist during the period. Having risen from obscurity as a precocious producer through the ranks of Jay Z's Roc-A-Fella records, by the time he released My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (MBDTF) in late 2010, West had evolved into a master collagist, an alchemist capable of transfiguring semi-obscure soul samples and indelible beats into a brash and vulnerable new art form.A look at the arc of his career, from the heady chipmunk soul exuberance of The College Dropout (2004) to the operatic narcissism of MBDTF, tells us about the march of pop music into the digital age and, by extension, the contradictions that define our cultural epoch. In a cloud-based and on-demand culture – a place of increasing virtualization, loneliness, and hyper-connectivity – West straddles this critical moment as what David Samuels of The Atlantic calls ""the first true genius of the iPhone era, the Mozart of contemporary American music."" In the land of taking a selfie, honing a personal brand, and publicly melting down online, Kanye West is the undisputed king. Swallowing the chaos wrought by his public persona and digesting it as a grandiose allegory of self-redemption, Kanye sublimates his narcissism to paint masterstroke after masterstroke on MBDTF, a 69-minute hymn to egotistical excess. Sampling and ventriloquizing the pop music past to tell the story of its future – very much a tale of our culture's wish for unfettered digital ubiquity – MBDTF is the album of its era, an aesthetic self-acquittal and spiritual autobiography of our era’s most dynamic artist.
