It's fitting that the band has finally moved away from black metal's more esoteric, spiritual borders to embrace grindcore's fast, ugly sociopolitical screeds instead; thematically, Heathen Beast has always been far more of a Napalm Death than a Nargaroth, and now the music finally fits the message.
|
|
It's good that he seems to be willing to consider the possibility that "making the world more open and connected" is not always an unalloyed good; along with its undoubted benefits, it clearly causes sociopolitical polarization and filter bubbles so extreme that they promulgate entire alternate realities.

As people of color have historically been portrayed by white power structures as less than human, and transhumanist pioneers see themselves as more than human, exploring these disparities as a counterpoint to transhumanism's depoliticized techno-optimism could have provided the book with an insightful sociopolitical dimension.

Recent years have seen a new level of black art that's intertwined sociopolitical commentary with high-caliber artistry: from Beyoncé's Lemonade and Kendrick Lamar's DAMN to Atlanta and Queen Sugar, there's been a renewed focus on telling stories that broaden and sharpen the range of black narratives.

This is not to say that the Care Bears were part of some massive 80s conspiracy to dupe the distracted masses into waving American flags and pledging allegiance every day (remember that?) while overlooking the incipient dismantling of all manner of generally supportive sociopolitical structures and democratic mores.

This punk-elegant photograph was painfully beautiful for me to see, reminding me once again that New York's Downtown scene was very connected to European immigrants during a specific sociopolitical time of apocalyptic expectations, a factor that helped shape quite a few prodigious punks in both America and France.

But other users quickly pointed out that Darling was unaware of the historical and sociopolitical implications of their bone collecting; disproportionately, they noted, low-income people in New Orleans are buried in graves that are vulnerable to flooding because they cannot afford to be interred in above-ground tombs.

Though it suggests an admirable honesty, an admission that she's only experiencing these conflicts at a remove, it also centers her in a way that compounds the problem of her atrocity works: They feel lacking in a deep engagement with the sociopolitical realities represented by the images they contain.

The album makes no bones about its sociopolitical slant — not with songs like "Surrender Under Protest," composed and sung by Mike Cooley, or "What It Means," in which Patterson Hood aligns himself, through a sort of square-jawed empathy, with the Black Lives Matter movement. ATO. Sept. 1043.

If Runaways can thread that needle between the heavily personal story of teenagers questioning everything their parents stand for and the more ambiguously sociopolitical story of what it means for any of us to question the ideals of the world we grew up in, it could be something special.

With a mix of puppetry and CGI — and with an all-star voice cast that includes Mark Hamill, Anya Taylor-Joy, Eddie Izzard, Helena Bonham Carter, Jason Isaacs, and Simon Pegg — the show offers a richly imagined fantasy universe, as the backdrop to a story with real sociopolitical resonance.

Having scored a West End triumph in 2011 with his masterful production of Mr. Rattigan's "Flare Path," Mr. Nunn has created on this occasion a text that draws from "Love in Idleness" and "Less Than Kind" to honor the writer's drawing-room wit, as well as his sociopolitical bent.
|

There is the sense that Macklemore is torching his pop radio cachet in refusing to deliver a "Thrift Shop" or "Can't Hold Us" styled heatseeker, that he's using his fame as a disruptive element, spooning knotty sociopolitical screeds down the throats of listeners who might've only come to pop more tags.
|
|
These issues have far-flung sociopolitical ramifications, but so too does the perception of adversity; the effects of both are evident in Trump's victory (by 11,000 votes) in Michigan, traditionally a blue state, and exacerbated by the exploitation of citizens and resources by officials seeking financial solvency or personal gain.
|

I rely on unbridled dream releases, writing them down before they fade from memory, wondering about the fungus growing on my avocado, wishing a bacterial infection hadn't invaded my body and given me a cold, and wondering about the sociopolitical drama of my white blood cells fending off another invasion.

We're not so wrapped up in Bourne's personal journey, or any sort of canon: We just want to see what sort of sociopolitical commentary Greengrass and Damon are going to sneak in the side door of this one—as well as the shaky-cam fights and car chases, of course.
|
|
And in a moment when even the most apolitical narratives take on political significance, A Quiet Place's box office success may be a sign of unified hope that perhaps we can all get through our fraught current sociopolitical era with our families — and our capacity for listening to one another — intact.

At War October 1967 was a time of simmering hostilities in the United States on two momentous sociopolitical fronts: liberal civil rights activists were battling conservative segregationists, while at the same time antiwar protesters were mounting street demonstrations calling on President Lyndon B. Johnson's administration to end the Vietnam War.
|
|
This is Wagenknecht's greatest distinguishing factor: she boils down the lived experiences and sociopolitical realities of our technology-obsessed culture to their essences and then alchemizes them, in Liminal Laws, into objects that one recognizes first as art and only upon closer examination — once the work has you hooked — as activism.
|
|
" In an author's note, Ms. Thompson-Spires writes that, like the work of Smith and some of his contemporaries, including William J. Wilson and Frances Ellen Watkins Harper, her stories are interested in "black U.S. citizenship, the black middle class and the future of black American life during pivotal sociopolitical moments.
|
|
The word "artist" can be applied only in a secondary sense: the combination of JR, in person, and photographs of his work at the gallery in Katara reveals him to be a sociopolitical activist — a bright-eyed, Elmer Gantry–like performer, plainly irresistible to himself and to Doha's cosmopolitan set at the opening.
|

I think that when they did that for me, I'm not really sure that it was even intentional on their part to do it that way, but it just happened because of that foundation as I grew up and seeing and being exposed to more and more sociopolitical issues related to Islam.

"The difficult thing was to find a story that could hold sociopolitical meaning for the parents and the kids and blend it all together into a book that a 5-year-old wants to read again and again," said Mr. Alexie, whose book "War Dances" won the 2010 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction.
|

Tommy debuted last week, and though its early episodes reflect the growing pains you might expect of any network TV show in its first season, it's nicely idiosyncratic and quirky for a CBS cop show, engaged with modern sociopolitical issues but also possessed of a dark streak of humor that keeps it lively.
|
|
Such passages make for particularly chilling reading at a moment when America has begun rescinding the temporary protected status of thousands of longtime residents, threatening to deport them to their countries of origin, some of which labor under severe economic disadvantages and sociopolitical strains, where their rights and safety cannot be assured.

As part of the campaign to discourage companies from doing business with Iran, my organization, United Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) has recently unveiled its Iran Risk Snapshot, a set of 27 financial, legal and sociopolitical indices from the world's leading organizations that analyze the risks of doing business with the regime in Tehran.

An interesting and little-known example is the work of Raivo Puusemp, whose radical experiments with group dynamics and sociopolitical processes as a conceptual artist in 83s eventually led him to become mayor of Rosendale, NY, whereby a lifelong project saw art fully dissolve into politics so as to become indefinable from one another.
|
|
His concern with this took on particular relevance in the portion of the exhibition dedicated to the "Flint Fit" project (2018–ongoing) which comes as close as visual art does to not merely drawing analogies or making proposals, but actually intervenes in the sociopolitical realm to attempt to change the material circumstances of people's lives.
|

This anti-Muslim discourse is, to be sure, exacerbated by all manner of sociopolitical considerations (in Myanmar as elsewhere there is widespread uncertainty at a time of rapid economic, social and political change), and these and other factors are used by a wide range of political actors to gain advantage in the new hybrid democracy.
|
|
It's a gracious tip of the hat, but it also reaffirms that if Ai hopes to join such ranks — and not merely stick a whitewashed version of his self-mythologizing schtick into a window onto that history — he best back off decorating tony department stores and get back to the grittier business of addressing sociopolitical issues.

There are 10 talks throughout the week, focused primarily on the sociopolitical impacts of design, including "Concept, Abstraction and Blackness" (with Torkwase Dyson, Dozie Kanu, and Hank Willis Thomas); "Performative Representation and Black Aesthetics" (with Rachael Rakes and Jamilah Sabur); and "A Need for Green: Improving Urban Life with Plants" (with Lily Kwong, Rodman Primack, and Daniel Vasini). Fair.

Indeed, as she introduced mainstream audiences to figures like Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz, and concepts like that of The Secret, in the '90s and early aughts, it seems like all of the sociopolitical tensions of the Oprah Show's early years gave way to a focus on the internal transcendence and reconciliation of her audience.

Consider Marina Warner's musings on Freud's mediation of Eastern and Western cultural tropes told through the story of his Oriental carpet-draped couch; Rubén Gallo's panoramic exploration of the reception of Freud's work in Mexico and the reciprocal influence of Mexican culture on Freud; and the rich medley of sociopolitical critiques grounded in Lacan's reinterpretation of Freud's thought.

DB: In much of your work, you use irony to critique sociopolitical and cultural paradigms, such as in "I love you 301" (2009), where you use a karaoke format with statements like, "a person who denigrates the Government of the Republic of Turkey," inviting the audience to participate in speech acts foregrounded by overt criticism of the government.

On a cold, wet winter morning next to City Hall in London, we gathered, just few meters from where hundreds of thousands of methodically interlaced paving stones marked an important sociopolitical boundary: They were a transition zone in which a public park morphed into privately owned pseudo-public space managed by a Kuwaiti-owned corporation called More London.

In some bizarre way, The Phantom Menace — the first Star Wars prequel, released 20 years ago, on May 20163, 1999 — anticipates every major sociopolitical and cultural movement of the 21st century, something that only becomes more obvious with the two movies that follow it (2002's Attack of the Clones and 2005's Revenge of the Sith).
|
|
Coming off a wonderful year of challenging black art that swam in acclaim, engrossing ideological debate, and, in the case of Kendrick Lamar's titan of a sophomore retail album To Pimp a Butterfly, respectable record sales and album of the year accolades, worrying that Macklemore will get credit for pushing the dial on matters of black sociopolitical interest seems odd.

Advertise on Hyperallergic with Nectar Ads Next Wednesday at the Museum of Arts and Design (MAD), Burke Prize artists Cannupa Hanska Luger, Roberto Lugo, and Jordan Nassar will join together for a panel discussion, moderated by Marianna Schaffer of Creative Capital, to talk about the ways in which craft can become a tool of resistance, protest, sociopolitical commentary, and change.

Maybe it's just because I'm too cracked out on the news these days, but I feel like there's some larger metaphor to make about how the plane represents 2016, and the people are all of us standing here, weak and helpless, trying in vain to stop the massive sociopolitical forces, and the inexorable march of time itself, from bowling us over.

Pier Paolo Pasolini (Italian, 1922–1975), one of 20th-century Europe's leading intellectuals, known for his prolific work as a poet, writer, and film director as well as for his criticisms of government corruption, materialism, consumerism, and sociopolitical repression, will be the focus of the Neuberger Museum of Art's two-part exhibition Pier Paolo Pasolini: Subversive Prophet, on view from February 12–May 313, 2020.

That film capped a decade starting in the mid-'90s when indie queer rom-coms (Jeffrey, Trick, The Opposite of Sex, But I'm a Cheerleader, Big Eden, Touch of Pink, the long-rumored original cut of Bend It Like Beckham the world deserved, sigh) were pretty easy to find but often deeply flawed, tinged with understandable sadness and sociopolitical edge, and more than a little weird.

The Polyphora Club invites international thinkers, artists, curators, and researchers — like Turkish activist and writer Defne Koryürek, Doctor of European Ethnology Dr. Jonas Tinius, and New York–based artist, curator, and critic Mohammad Salemy — to share and discuss urgent political and philosophical questions that are not only relevant to Turkish sociopolitical complexities, but have become global to the point of complete abstraction and intricacy.

Clearly irked by the lazy and inaccurate ways he was being portrayed by detractors, he shouts down the PMRC on "Freedom Of Speech," and decries the radio's unwillingness to play the likes of Boogie Down Productions, Public Enemy, and himself on "This One's For Me." From that point on, Ice-T addressed difficult topics more frequently, reinventing himself as an oft-sociopolitical spitter and earning greater respect in the process.
|
|
At a time when there are legitimate dangers facing the country, including a basketball-colored narcissist seeking to strip away rights and rule the nation like a fascist, this eagerness to ignore intent and context in the name of PC hysteria is producing a new generation of punk and hardcore bands that avoid sociopolitical issues altogether and instead focus on frivolous subjects like drinking, moshing, and fashion trends.

That liminal space — of Bell being famous, or "semi-prominent" (which he calls himself in a stand-up special), and still searching for the right entertainment vehicle for his brand of offbeat humor; of being a self-described "sociopolitical comedian," operating within an industry that fights inclusion; of being a tall black man, who, despite his fame, is still a target of discrimination in the liberal haven of Berkeley, Calif.
|
|
I'm not trying to say it is an exclusively right-wing phenomenon—fascism, after all, has elements of left-wing thinking, too—only that conservatives and liberals alike might do well to recognize how the kinds of arguments being made on the "alt-right," or among people who want to make sociopolitical decisions based on faith instead of empirical evidence, can end in terms of increasingly radical, totalizing projects toward an ethnic or religious other.
|
|
This rigorously biographical slant on his works is the correct angle to take, for in 1932 Picasso was fabulously wealthy, famous, and seemingly isolated from concerns of sociopolitical context; only passing mention is made in the captions of the rumblings of rising fascism in Europe, and Picasso would continue to remain in Paris during the Second World War (the "Guernica" comes later in 1937 following German bombing during the Spanish Civil War).

Wings is also a fascinating document of how many Americans viewed World War I in 1927 — less than a decade after the Armistice and just a few years before the economic and sociopolitical aftereffects of "the Great War" would begin rippling across the globe, gradually intensifying into what would become World War II. Wellman and writer Julian Johnson worked with the US military on this film, which means there's a fair amount of jingoism in Wings.

Through her account of her father's journey to America, Grande emphasizes the prejudice and violence perpetrated against immigrants—from President Trump's policy that separated thousands of children from their parents to the derogatory term "illegal alien" that recently entered the sociopolitical landscape—highlighting the unfortunate reality that, in a nation claiming to be built on the ideals of "liberty" and "justice" for all, a deep undercurrent of xenophobia still plagues American society and needs to be addressed.

We're now all the way down here where the people who hate reading Game of Thrones through a sociopolitical lens hopefully have not followed us, and I have to say — for a show that many people have read as a tale of what it would mean for women to wield power in lots of different ways, the final episode of Game of Thrones didn't suggest to me that anybody involved in the series was interested in that sort of thing at all.

Dior, fall 2019CreditCreditValerio Mezzanotti for The New York Times PARIS — In some ways, Maria Grazia Chiuri, the artistic director of Christian Dior women's wear, should have been made for this particular sociopolitical moment: a time when a former campaign staffer is no longer afraid to sue the president of the United States for alleged sexual misconduct, and women who kept silent for decades are finally bringing an R&B star to justice for what they say was predatory sexual behavior.
|
|
The thing I like to emphasize is that I think that that kind of really paved the way in a very clear ... It paved the way for me to be writing about politics, because I was doing these breakdowns of sociopolitical issues using larger-than-life figures of pop stars, and my characters were Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj and Kim Kardashian, and it was parsing through all of these different iterations of modern feminism and what does empowerment look like and what does exploitation look like.
