  Get inside the head of one of the most influential musicians of our time with this collection of her most inspiring and revealing quotes. 
   
  The quotations in this book have been carefully curated from Taylor Swift’s numerous public statements—interviews, op-eds, social media posts, and more. It’s a comprehensive picture of her meteoric rise to the top, her ever-savvy business sense, and her increasingly forthright perspective on the music world and beyond. 
   
  Swift’s catchy, chart-topping songs have propelled her to become one of the bestselling musicians of all time. But in the more than fifteen years she’s been making music, she has also amassed enough power to buck the norms of an industry notorious for controlling the images of its often very young female artists. She’s stood up for herself and for other artists, championing their rights to fair royalties, and inspired tens of thousands of fans to register to vote. Swift’s achievements have earned her spots on both Forbes’s Most Powerful Women and Time’s 100 Most Influential People lists. Now, for the first time, you can find her most inspirational, thought-provoking quotes in one place.

  The Value Gap - Female-Driven...

  Conversations about gender equity in the workplace accelerated in the 2010s, with debates inside Hollywood specifically pointing to broader systemic problems of employment disparities and exploitative labor practices. Compounded by the devastating #MeToo revelations, these problems led to a wide-scale call for change. The Value Gap traces female-driven filmmaking across development, financing, production, film festivals, marketing, and distribution, examining the realities facing women working in the industry during this transformative moment. Drawing from five years of extensive interviews with female producers, writers, and directors at different stages of their careers, Courtney Brannon Donoghue examines how Hollywood business cultures "value" female-driven projects as risky or not bankable. Industry claims that "movies targeting female audiences don't make money" or "women can't direct big-budget blockbusters" have long circulated to rationalize systemic gender inequities and have served to normalize studios prioritizing the white male–driven status quo. Through a critical media industry studies lens, The Value Gap challenges this pervasive logic with firsthand accounts of women actively navigating the male-dominated and conglomerate-owned industrial landscape.

  Rockin’ in the Ivory Tower -...

  James M. Carter

  Histories of American rock music and the 1960s counterculture typically focus on the same few places: Woodstock, Monterey, Altamont. Yet there was also a very active college circuit that brought edgy acts like the Jefferson Airplane and the Velvet Underground to different metropolitan regions and smaller towns all over the country. These campus concerts were often programmed, promoted, and reviewed by students themselves, and their diverse tastes challenged narrow definitions of rock music. 
   
    
   
  Rockin' in the Ivory Tower takes a close look at two smaller universities, Drew in New Jersey and Stony Brook on Long Island, to see how the culture of rock music played an integral role in student life in the late 1960s. Analyzing campus archives and college newspapers, historian James Carter traces connections between rock fandom and the civil rights protests, free speech activism, radical ideas, lifestyle transformations, and anti-war movements that revolutionized universities in the 1960s. Furthermore, he finds that these progressive students refused to segregate genres like folk, R&B, hard rock, and pop. Rockin' in the Ivory Tower gives listeners a front-row seat to a dynamic time for the music industry, countercultural politics, and youth culture.

  Here - Where the Black Designers...

  Designer, activist, and educator Cheryl D. Holmes-Miller is legendary for her  
  decades of scholarship and advocacy, and as a touchstone and conscience for the  
  design profession. In HERE: Where the Black Designers Are, Holmes-Miller  
  documents the history of—and answers to—the question she has been asking for  
  decades: “Where are the Black designers?”  
  Holmes-Miller explores this essential question through the lens of her own  
  development as a designer and leader, beginning with her own family and its rich  
  multiethnic history. She narrates her experiences as a design student at Rhode  
  Island School of Design (RISD), Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA), and Pratt  
  Institute, leading up to her oft-cited Pratt thesis examining barriers to success for  
  Black designers. Holmes-Miller describes the work of her eponymous studio for  
  noted clients that included NASA, Time Inc., and the nascent Black Entertainment  
  Television (BET), as well as the story of her later critiques of the industry in Print 
  magazine and other design publications. Holmes-Miller also recounts the parallel  
  history of collective efforts by fellow scholars and advocates over the past fifty  
  years to identify and celebrate Black designers. 
  HERE is part memoir, part historical investigation, and an urgent call for justice  
  and recognition for Black designers. 
  “This book is representative of the shoulders on which we, as Black graphic  
  designers, stand. These are the legacies we are fighting to uphold and the torches  
  we must continue to carry. The journey of the Black designer has not been easy. It  
  isn’t easy. And while we may be left out of history books, this is a reminder that we  
  are here. Always have been. Always will be.”—Tré Seals, Vocal Type
