Making Oppositional Culture, Making Standpoint: A Journey Into Gloria Anzaldúa's Borderlands
The theory of oppositional culture, as discussed by Bonnie Mitchell and Joe Feagin (Citation1995), suggests that African Americans, American Indians, and Mexican Americans draw on their own cultural resources to resist domination. Patricia Hill Collins suggests that Black women develop a unique vision of the social world based on their position within a matrix of domination that organizes intersecting oppressions of race, class, and gender, among…

Popular Culture as Oppositional Culture: Rap as Resistance
Bonnie Mitchell and Joe Feagin (1995) build on the theory of oppositional culture, arguing that African Americans, American Indians, and Mexican Americans draw on their own cultural resources to resist oppression under internal colonialism. In this paper, rap music is identified as an important African American popular cultural form that also emerges as a form of oppositional culture. A brief analysis of the lyrics of political and gangsta rapper…
Where Popular Culture Meets Deviant Behavior: Classroom Experiences with Music
Culture has long been a focal point of sociological interest and writing (Becker 1976, 1982; Benjamin 1969; Bourdieu 1984; Simmel 1950). Popular culture studies today continue to contribute to a general sociology of culture with their focus on music (Armstrong 1993; Dowd 1992; Frith 1978; Frith and Goodwin 1990; Frith and McRobbie 1990; Kamin 1989; Pratt 1990). Some researchers, in fact, emphasize the merits of popular culture as a teaching tool …
Gang Innovation, Patriarchy and Powerlessness: Expanding Theory To Relfect [Reflect] American Politics
When cities grew large enough to develop slums, gangs began to form. The heritage of gang behavior is poverty and its children: abuse, alcoholism, and drug addiction, to name a few. Today we are facing a problem of major proportions in our cities. Gang membership is seemingly growing with no end in sight, and a beleaguered nation, a struggling city, the mother of a gang member all ask: Why? There are probably several answers and more questions. T…
Popular Music in the Classroom: Teaching Race, Class, and Gender with Popular Culture
Depuis longtemps, la culture populaire a fait l'objet d'etudes sociologiques. La musique populaire, en particulier, est un reflet du contexte social dans lequel elle voit le jour. L'A. de cet article propose une utilisation des textes de chansons pop ou rock dans son enseignement de la sociologie non comme une simple illustration du cours mais comme une possible reference de concepts-cles de la sociologie
Recognizing the Enemy: Rap Music In the Wake of the Los Angeles Riots
The May 1992 riots in Los Angeles demonstrated more than anything in recent history that the inner cities are filled with despair, hopelessness, and anger. Some feel that rap music is responsible for both gangs and the lawlessness unleashed by the riots. This paper will seek to address this notion by looking at the rap lyrics of artists who have been considered the most radical and the most angry. By examining rap lyrics we can detect anger and f…
