Women's Backseat Role in the Music Industry
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page overview of the history of women in the music industry. Emphasizes that women have traditionally taken a backseat role in the industry. This is a role which is explored both directly and indirectly by the various authors included in the compendium of articles by Maxine Baca Zinn, Pierrette Hondagneu-Sotelo, and Michael A. Messner entitled "Gender Through the Prism of Difference". In this book four articles in particular stand out in their application to the history of women in the music industry. These articles are: Cynthia Enloe's "It Takes More Than Two: The Prostitute, the Soldier, the State, and the Entrepreneur", Arlene Stein's "Seventies Questions for Nineties Women", Rosemary Pringle's "Male Secretaries", and of course Melissa Klein's "Duality and Redefinition: Young Feminism and the Alternative Music Community". What is emphasized over and over again by each of these authors, is that the contemporary state of gender relations is the result of the injustices which have been rendered throughout history by a patriarchal society. Utilizes the examples of Melissa Etheridge and Tracy Chapman to illustrate this unfairness. No additional sources are listed.

Women's Magazines And Color
[ send me this essay ]
17 pages in length. Women's magazines often are dominated by white women and rarely illustrate images of women of color, an aspect of printed media that research shows forever contributes to a social divide among women from different ethnic background. The magazines that tend to exclude such women include Vogue and Cosmopolitan; magazines that do cater to the minorities tend to opt for women who are very light in skin complexion, a point that has also caused a divide within the black community. When one ponders the reasons why the exclusion of women from different ethnic backgrounds exists in contemporary popular culture, it is important to analyze such elements as the influence of advertising, the power of patriarchal control and the overwhelming sense of whiteness that continues to perpetuate in modern-day women's magazines. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Looking back upon history, there are myriad memorable moments where the struggle for women's rights has been made that much less severe, with a handful of notable individuals – both men and women – speaking out for the female voice. One such extraordinary person was both a woman and a minority, which made her struggle that much more difficult; however, she never allowed that to get in her way, particularly when she made this celebrated speech one hundred and fifty years ago.
