Mexican American Mojo: Popular Music, Dance, and Urban

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Macias, Anthony, PUBLISHER: Duke University Press, Stretching from the years during the Second World War when young couples jitterbugged across the dance floor at the Zenda Ballroom, through the early s when honking tenor saxophones could be heard at the Angelus Hall, to the Spanish-language cosmopolitanism of the late s and s, "Mexican American Mojo" is a lively account of Mexican American urban culture in wartime and postwar Los Angeles as seen through the evolution of dance styles, nightlife, and, above all, popular music. Revealing the links between a vibrant Chicano music culture and postwar social and geographic mobility, Anthony Macias shows how by participating in jazz, the zoot suit phenomenon, car culture, rhythm and blues, rock and roll, and Latin music, Mexican Americans not only rejected second-class citizenship and demeaning stereotypes, but also transformed Los Angeles. Macias conducted numerous interviews for "Mexican American Mojo," and the voices of little-known artists and fans fill its pages. In addition, more famous musicians such as Ritchie Valens and Lalo Guerrero are considered anew in relation to their contemporaries and the city. Macias examines language, fashion, and subcultures to trace the history of hip and cool in Los Angeles as well as the Chicano influence on urban culture. He argues that a grass-roots "multicultural urban civility" that challenged the attempted containment of Mexican Americans and African Americans emerged in the neighborhoods, schools, nightclubs, dance halls, and auditoriums of mid-twentieth-century Los Angeles. So take a little trip with Macias, via streetcar or freeway, to a time when Los Angeles had advanced public high school music programs, segregated musicians' union locals, a highbrow municipal Bureau of Music, independent R & B labels, and robust rock and roll and Latin music scenes.

Can Evangelicals Learn from World Religions?: Jesus,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: McDermott, Gerald R., PUBLISHER: IVP Academic, One thing it does not mean, argues Gerald McDermott, is that God has not revealed himself at all through other religions. But then what is the nature of revelation in other world religions? And what can evangelicals learn from it? In this provocative and thoughtful book McDermott explores these issues. He begins with a look at how evangelicals have responded to world religions and then explores the theological concept of revelation. Biblically and theologically he then makes a case for God's having revealed himself outside of Israel and the church. By way of illustration, he shows that theologians such as Augustine, Thomas Aquinas and Calvin used thinking from outside the church to help in understanding the revelation of Christ. He then explores four case studies of how Buddhist, Daoist, Confucian and Islamic understandings have enriched his own understanding of scriptural concepts. In a concluding chapter he responds to possible objections to his project.
