    WNOX’s Mid-Day Merry-Go-Round, which aired from 1936 to 1961, was a pivotal program in the history of country music. Wildly popular throughout East Tennessee and bordering states, the show’s legacy outside of Knoxville will likely remain as something of a farm team for acts who would go on to make it big in Nashville. A few off-air and studio recordings from the 1950s have been found, but it’s long been thought that no recordings of the show’s earliest days survived. Turns out a recording of the Merry-Go-Round from Friday, November 11, 1937 has been in the Radio Archive of the University of Memphis for years, and it reveals a vastly different Merry-Go-Round than most might expect.…

    I would describe the character of John J. Dunbar as an extraordinarily committed man. John Dunbar was committed to staying at Fort Sedgwick although all of the other soldiers had abandoned the Fort in hopes of finding a better life. I would also consider John Dunbar a very committed man because when he invests himself into a relationship, he carries out all that he can to make that relationship flourish. He showed that commitment through his numerous relationships with Stands with a Fist, Cisco, Two Socks, and Kicking Bird. John J. Dunbar can also be described as a receptive individual because of the way he communicated with the Sioux Indians. When he first met the Sioux Indians he was very persistent on initiating their communication.…

    As a young teenager, I am unfamiliar with Fred Astaire and his work. However, upon watching his famous ceiling dance video, I was quite amazed by his talents. Throughout the video, Fred presented very classy, elegant, and smooth movements that captivated my interest in his style of dance. I honestly don’t know about the quality of dance in the 1950s, but it seems appropriate to say that Fred Astaire’s style of dancing was unique and intriguing, at the least, for his time. What I found to be one of the most compelling features about the video, was of the time period in which the dance was filmed- the 1950s. It seems that the video incorporates a remarkable amount of filming talent and qualities. The fact that, during that time period, the film…

    Other forces of assimilation that rose up near the introduction of the Indian Act was both the Gradual Civilization Act of 1857 and the Gradual Enfranchisement Act of 1869 (Henderson, “Indian Act”). Both these acts were responsible for stripping the status of First Nations people (Henderson, “Indian Act”). They “were almost uniformly aimed at removing any special distinction or rights afforded First Nations peoples and at assimilating them into the larger settler population (Henderson, “Indian Act”).” The only perk a First Nations person would gain in voluntarily abandoning their rights, is to gain the right to vote, which was later acquired in 1960 (Henderson, “Indian Act”). Describing the forces of assimilation allows the reader to understand…

    Fast Car, originally composed and performed by Tracy Chapman in 1988, is a contemporary song that has captured the hearts of audiences of all ages around the world for decades. In this piece, the persona takes the listener on not only a physical, but also on an emotional and imaginative journey, as she tells us her story of desperate hope to escape the place she lives in order to make a better life for herself elsewhere, and the obstacles she must overcome to do so. Through this text, Chapman effectively communicates that searching for something better is often the reason we embark on a journey, as well as exploring the fact that taking a physical journey does not always mean that we escape the problems that exist in our life. She also conveys that even though a journey may not have given you what you thought it would, it will often bring newfound maturity, sense of reality and greater understanding of life.…
