Ithaca Music Forum Friday: Pop Music/Philosophy lecture on Beyoncé, Rihanna & "Post-Feminism."Contributed by Alex Reed on 11/10/16
UNC Charlotte philosopher Dr. Robin James will come to IC on Friday to deliver her talk "Leaning Into The Red: Beyonce, Nicki, Missy, and Rihanna's Black Feminist Responses to 21st-Century 'Post-Feminism.'” A scholar of phenomenology, gender, race, and popular music, Dr. James is author of the books Resilience & Melancholy: Pop Music, Feminism, Neoliberalism (2015) and The Conjectural Body: Gender, Race, and the Philosophy of Music (2010). Her talk is part of the Ithaca Music Forum, a new initiative of the Ithaca College School of Music, committed to giving public voice to innovative music scholarship. She’ll be speaking at the Whalen Center for Music (in the fourth-floor McHenry Lounge) on Friday, November 11, at 5pm. A reception with food and drink will follow. The event is free, and we especially welcome those from outside the IC School of Music. Facebook event at https://www.facebook.com/events/1803105719975118/ |
