"content": "\u003cp>Long, long ago, when the Earth was new and ichthyosaurs swam the turbid seas, \u003cem>Iron Man 2\u003c/em> arrived in theaters. [\u003cem>Ed. Note — Simmer down. It was 2010\u003c/em>.]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was, most agreed, a disappointment, compared with its predecessor, despite a fun and deeply, \u003cem>deeply\u003c/em> squirrelly Sam Rockwell performance. (Remember how he had bronzer on his palms? And no one mentioned it. It was just a character thing? Remember that? That was cool.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I agreed that it didn't work as well as the original \u003cem>Iron Man\u003c/em>, and I said then — \u003cem>declared\u003c/em>, really, as I was a younger man, full of moxie, and gumption, and eels — that I knew why. In fact, I developed A Theory. A Grand Unified Theory of Superhero Cinema.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's the origin, I thought. It's crucial. Origin stories are what draw us in and keep us engaged. They're cinematic road maps, guiding us from here (mundane human existence) to there (a world of costumes, powers, magic, spectacle). Bildungsromans in spandex.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once you get past the origin story, I thought, what have you got left? Dudes in suits, waling away at each other. Big whoop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other words: The origin story is what drives and shapes a superhero franchise, because it grounds all that third act (and sequel) CGI action in the first act world where characters have dreams, and relationships, and have lived lives. Because in that life, something magical happened — this guy got amazing powers! The origin story tells you \u003cem>how\u003c/em> it happened and \u003cem>why\u003c/em> it happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But sequels say only: No, yeah. Guess what? It's still happening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Think about ancient myths, I would proclaim to anyone who hadn't yet taken their beers and moved down the bar to stare sullenly into the middle distance. Myths are preoccupied with the origins of things, the how and why of the natural world: fire, the seasons, lightning, the stars in the sky. Superheroes are modern-day mythical demigods, they came from somewhere. Origin stories tell us where.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Theory, Tested\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Important reminder: I developed this theory seven years and approximately 392 superhero movies ago. The Marvel Cinematic Universe hadn't yet undergone its big bang, filling all of existence with origin stories, until they became inescapable, unignorable, omnipresent — the static hiss of a kind of narrative background radiation that now pervades the culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Iron Man 2\u003c/em> arrived three years after the first Spider-Man franchise concluded and two years before a second Spider-Man franchise would commence. Both kicked off with origin stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There have been several origin movies that tanked so hard they killed franchise opportunities, saving us from a universe in which, say, \u003cem>Green Lantern III: Wasting Still More Of Your Time\u003c/em> is a thing. And there certainly have, over the years, been sequels that were more successful, cinematically and/or financially, than their predecessors:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Many say\u003cem> Superman II\u003c/em> was better than \u003cem>Superman: The Movie\u003c/em>.

[\u003cem>Ed. Note — Simmer down. It was 2010\u003c/em>.]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was, most agreed, a disappointment, compared with its predecessor, despite a fun and deeply, \u003cem>deeply\u003c/em> squirrelly Sam Rockwell performance. (Remember how he had bronzer on his palms? And no one mentioned it. It was just a character thing? Remember that? That was cool.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I agreed that it didn't work as well as the original \u003cem>Iron Man\u003c/em>, and I said then — \u003cem>declared\u003c/em>, really, as I was a younger man, full of moxie, and gumption, and eels — that I knew why. In fact, I developed A Theory. A Grand Unified Theory of Superhero Cinema.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's the origin, I thought. It's crucial. Origin stories are what draw us in and keep us engaged. They're cinematic road maps, guiding us from here (mundane human existence) to there (a world of costumes, powers, magic, spectacle). Bildungsromans in spandex.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once you get past the origin story, I thought, what have you got left? Dudes in suits, waling away at each other.

Because in that life, something magical happened — this guy got amazing powers! The origin story tells you \u003cem>how\u003c/em> it happened and \u003cem>why\u003c/em> it happened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But sequels say only: No, yeah. Guess what? It's still happening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Think about ancient myths, I would proclaim to anyone who hadn't yet taken their beers and moved down the bar to stare sullenly into the middle distance. Myths are preoccupied with the origins of things, the how and why of the natural world: fire, the seasons, lightning, the stars in the sky. Superheroes are modern-day mythical demigods, they came from somewhere. Origin stories tell us where.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Theory, Tested\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Important reminder: I developed this theory seven years and approximately 392 superhero movies ago. The Marvel Cinematic Universe hadn't yet undergone its big bang, filling all of existence with origin stories, until they became inescapable, unignorable, omnipresent — the static hiss of a kind of narrative background radiation that now pervades the culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Iron Man 2\u003c/em> arrived three years after the first Spider-Man franchise concluded and two years before a second Spider-Man franchise would commence. Both kicked off with origin stories.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There have been several origin movies that tanked so hard they killed franchise opportunities, saving us from a universe in which, say, \u003cem>Green Lantern III: Wasting Still More Of Your Time\u003c/em> is a thing. And there certainly have, over the years, been sequels that were more successful, cinematically and/or financially, than their predecessors:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Many say\u003cem> Superman II\u003c/em> was better than \u003cem>Superman: The Movie\u003c/em>.

I’m a black playwright. I don’t know exactly what that means. But I’m here to tell you a story.” And then Gardner puts on whiteface, as another actor dons redface to play an American Indian. There’s blackface too, so, as Jamedra says, if you’re not offended in some way, you’re not paying attention. Much of the play is Jacobs-Jenkins deconstruction of a 19th Century melodrama by \u003ca href=\"http://www.theatrehistory.com/irish/boucicault001.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dion Boucicault\u003c/a> about the fate of a Southern plantation. But there’s also running commentary on what it’s like to be an African American on the American stage. Br’er Rabbit gets a part too, and just when you think it’s okay to laugh at the racist attitudes of characters from 160 years ago, Jacobs-Jenkins slaps you with an image or line forcing you to recognize how things haven’t changed very much at all.

I’m a black playwright. I don’t know exactly what that means. But I’m here to tell you a story.” And then Gardner puts on whiteface, as another actor dons redface to play an American Indian. There’s blackface too, so, as Jamedra says, if you’re not offended in some way, you’re not paying attention. Much of the play is Jacobs-Jenkins deconstruction of a 19th Century melodrama by \u003ca href=\"http://www.theatrehistory.com/irish/boucicault001.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dion Boucicault\u003c/a> about the fate of a Southern plantation. But there’s also running commentary on what it’s like to be an African American on the American stage. Br’er Rabbit gets a part too, and just when you think it’s okay to laugh at the racist attitudes of characters from 160 years ago, Jacobs-Jenkins slaps you with an image or line forcing you to recognize how things haven’t changed very much at all.

That's his \u003cem>thing\u003c/em>. His other thing? White. Dude loves wearing white -- even after Labor Day, like the wild man that he is! With this in mind, Pitbull's MLB outfit actually made ALL OF THE SENSE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You have to wonder whether sports fans would have freaked out like this about, say, \u003ca href=\"https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/59/d3/cc/59d3cce4e42794fa5d1b6d4a2de700d2.jpg\">Ricky Martin\u003c/a>, in the same outfit. Hard to imagine, right? Maybe the issue isn't the tightness of Pitbull's clothes, but rather the hetero of Pitbull's sexuality. (Rumors about his potential gay status have been splashed all over the internet for years -- probably thanks in part to his wardrobe -- despite a string of \u003ca href=\"https://hitberry.com/rapper-pitbull-who-is-his-girlfriend-what-s-his-relation-with-barbara-alba-any-flings-or-not/\">relationships \u003c/a>with women and two children who were, as far as we know, conceived the old fashioned way.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the ladykiller vibes Pitbull portrays in his videos don't line up with his wardrobe -- at least according to what virile heterosexual men are \"supposed\" to wear -- we should applaud Pitbull as both a fashion rebel and a gender-role challenger.

Perry calls the series “medieval-ish.” In a show set before modern medicine, he says, it makes sense to see people with disabilities. “Every human society is, of course, packed with disabled people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While plenty of \u003cem>Game of Thrones\u003c/em> characters have disabilities, Perry says the show still falls into some traps. Take the young princess scarred by a fictional severe skin disease — “\u003ca href=\"http://www.telegraph.co.uk/tv/2016/05/06/greyscale-the-history-and-diseases-that-inspired-game-of-thrones/\">greyscale\u003c/a>.” Perry says the character’s disability primarily serves to pump up the pathos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It isn’t really about her,” he points out. “Right? It’s all — \u003cem>this poor, physically disfigured girl who’s so good and pure and smart. Oh no, she’s going to be killed; now we have to be \u003c/em>really\u003cem> upset.\u003c/em> That is the kind of writing I kind of hate.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perry also takes issue with how quickly a fictional swordsman — Jaime Lannister — who loses one hand learns to fight with the other. Then there’s Bran Stark. Early in the series the character becomes paralyzed, and spends much of the first season being carried by Hodor, the character with intellectual disabilities. Both have mystical powers — an old cliché in disability representation (think of \u003cem>The Green Mile\u003c/em> or \u003cem>The Boy Who Could Fly\u003c/em>.) Some activists are concerned that this season, Bran will be magically cured.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Will Bran learn to fly? Will he learn to shape-shift?” Perry asks. “Is he going to be able to change his body so he’s not paralyzed anymore?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Granted, \u003cem>Game of Thrones\u003c/em> is a fantasy, Perry says. But that sort of transformation isn’t what most wheelchair users are looking for.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You don’t want to learn to fly,” he says dryly. “You want a ramp built into your castle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Perry admires how the series explores such a wide range of characters with different sorts of bodies and minds. Cokley admires that too; she’s especially effusive about the books’ author, George R. R. Martin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He obviously hangs out with a rabble-rousing group of disabled people,” she says. “I know it. I \u003cem>sense\u003c/em> it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This fantasy universe is far more realistic than lots of other television shows, Cokley says, when it comes to representing people with disabilities on screen. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

(The Supreme Court recently \u003ca href=\"http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/supreme-court-turns-down-dancing-baby-copyright-case-1014641\">decided not to hear an appeal\u003c/a> in a dispute over the 2007 takedown of a 30-second \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1KfJHFWlhQ\">video of a baby dancing\u003c/a> to \"Let's Go Crazy.\") But since his death last April, Prince's music has gradually become more accessible on the web. His Warner Brothers catalog, including his biggest hits, returned to major streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music in February, and previously unreleased material — \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2017/04/20/524886598/deliverance-denied-release-of-posthumous-prince-record-stopped-by-judge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">some unsanctioned\u003c/a> — has been trickling out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These videos' official appearance comes two weeks after Warner Bros.' release of the 30th-anniversary deluxe version of \u003cem>Purple Rain, \u003c/em>which includes a full disc of songs newly uncovered from Prince's famed Paisley Park vault. The reissue \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/7857763/prince-purple-rain-reissue-top-five-albums-chart-billboard-200\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">debuted at No. 4\u003c/a> in the \u003cem>Billboard 200\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there's more good news for Prince fans: A representative for Warner Bros. records confirmed to NPR in an email that more Prince videos are on their way. But for now, fans have this handful of clips of some of his best-known work, a selection that represents The Revolution and their leader in their prime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if this week the elevator tries to break you down — go crazy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watch the Videos:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Let's Go Crazy\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXJhDltzYVQ\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When Doves Cry\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG3VcCAlUgE\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I Would Die 4 U (Live)\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=SVEFRQavTNI\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Baby I'm A Star (Live)\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Lgf2VU_M70\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Take Me With U (Live)\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c80mYF6dR7s\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When Doves Cry (Extended Version)\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=IUc0R8bbWQE\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2017 NPR.

An official Prince channel on \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCv3mNSNjuWldihk1DUdnGtw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">each\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://www.vevo.com/artist/prince\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">site\u003c/a> now features music videos for the singles \"When Doves Cry\" and \"Let's Go Crazy,\" along with electric live performance clips of \"Take Me With U,\" \"I Would Die 4 U\" and a ridiculously funky, 13-minute version of \"Baby I'm A Star.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While he was alive, Prince was notoriously protective of his music and meticulous about scrubbing fan-generated videos from the Internet. (The Supreme Court recently \u003ca href=\"http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/supreme-court-turns-down-dancing-baby-copyright-case-1014641\">decided not to hear an appeal\u003c/a> in a dispute over the 2007 takedown of a 30-second \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1KfJHFWlhQ\">video of a baby dancing\u003c/a> to \"Let's Go Crazy.\") But since his death last April, Prince's music has gradually become more accessible on the web. His Warner Brothers catalog, including his biggest hits, returned to major streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music in February, and previously unreleased material — \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2017/04/20/524886598/deliverance-denied-release-of-posthumous-prince-record-stopped-by-judge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">some unsanctioned\u003c/a> — has been trickling out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These videos' official appearance comes two weeks after Warner Bros.' release of the 30th-anniversary deluxe version of \u003cem>Purple Rain, \u003c/em>which includes a full disc of songs newly uncovered from Prince's famed Paisley Park vault. The reissue \u003ca href=\"http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/7857763/prince-purple-rain-reissue-top-five-albums-chart-billboard-200\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">debuted at No. 4\u003c/a> in the \u003cem>Billboard 200\u003c/em>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there's more good news for Prince fans: A representative for Warner Bros. records confirmed to NPR in an email that more Prince videos are on their way. But for now, fans have this handful of clips of some of his best-known work, a selection that represents The Revolution and their leader in their prime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if this week the elevator tries to break you down — go crazy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Addressed to her roommate, fellow civil-rights worker Mari Hamilton, the label read: Ms. Mari Hamilton.

Your abuser may treat you… as [a] possession.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It goes on: \"An abuser will do everything he or she can to make you feel bad about yourself or defective in some way. Insults, name-calling, shaming, and public put-downs are all weapons of abuse designed to erode your self-esteem and make you feel powerless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Abusers... will commonly shift the responsibility on to you: Somehow, his… behavior is your fault.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This last one is why Rob Kardashian is so focused on the sex lives of his exes -- it gives him an excuse to enact the aforementioned public put-downs that he wields in a desperate bid to shame his exes into submission and \"feel in charge\" again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Blac Chyna's Snapchat posts that allege Rob \"beat\" and \"put hand\" on her, she also exclaims: \"I'm supposed to be quiet because you're a Kardashian.\" It is undoubtedly true that famous men have historically been given free passes when it comes to getting away with domestic violence, and, when it comes to this specific allegation, at this stage, it can only be Chyna's word against Kardashian's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, if Chyna wished to press charges against Kardashian for revenge porn, she would be well within her rights, as a California resident, to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to \u003ca href=\"https://www.wksexcrimes.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-californias-revenge-porn-law/\">Whallin & Klarich Law Corporation\u003c/a>: \"Under SB 255, an act of revenge porn is defined as someone who 'photographs or records by any means the image of the intimate body part or parts of another identifiable person, under circumstances where the parties agree or understand that the image shall remain private, and the person subsequently distributes the image taken, with the intent to cause serious emotional distress, and the depicted person suffers serious emotional distress.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Further, \"SB 255 classifies revenge porn as disorderly conduct, which is a misdemeanor in California. If you are convicted of this crime, a first offense could land you in county jail for up to six months and you could also be fined up to $1,000 fine under PC 647.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is reasonably unlikely that Blac Chyna would seek to prosecute an individual that she co-parents with, but if she did move in that direction, it may teach Kardashian -- and other abusers, famous or otherwise -- a valuable lesson. Currently, Rob Kardashian thinks so little of the abuse he spews onto social media, he keeps doing it over and over again. Even Instagram's objections to the images he was posting did not to deter him from repeatedly posting them. There is a level of self-entitlement and privilege -- not to mention his own sense of being justified -- that should set alarm bells off for everyone in Rob Kardashian's vicinity, as well as everyone watching this whole sorry mess go down from a safe distance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kardashian's behavior is both abusive and illegal. It should be recognized as such and not merely treated as another slice of reality TV drama.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Insults, name-calling, shaming, and public put-downs are all weapons of abuse designed to erode your self-esteem and make you feel powerless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Abusers... will commonly shift the responsibility on to you: Somehow, his… behavior is your fault.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This last one is why Rob Kardashian is so focused on the sex lives of his exes -- it gives him an excuse to enact the aforementioned public put-downs that he wields in a desperate bid to shame his exes into submission and \"feel in charge\" again.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Blac Chyna's Snapchat posts that allege Rob \"beat\" and \"put hand\" on her, she also exclaims: \"I'm supposed to be quiet because you're a Kardashian.\" It is undoubtedly true that famous men have historically been given free passes when it comes to getting away with domestic violence, and, when it comes to this specific allegation, at this stage, it can only be Chyna's word against Kardashian's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, if Chyna wished to press charges against Kardashian for revenge porn, she would be well within her rights, as a California resident, to do so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to \u003ca href=\"https://www.wksexcrimes.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-californias-revenge-porn-law/\">Whallin & Klarich Law Corporation\u003c/a>: \"Under SB 255, an act of revenge porn is defined as someone who 'photographs or records by any means the image of the intimate body part or parts of another identifiable person, under circumstances where the parties agree or understand that the image shall remain private, and the person subsequently distributes the image taken, with the intent to cause serious emotional distress, and the depicted person suffers serious emotional distress.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Further, \"SB 255 classifies revenge porn as disorderly conduct, which is a misdemeanor in California. If you are convicted of this crime, a first offense could land you in county jail for up to six months and you could also be fined up to $1,000 fine under PC 647.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is reasonably unlikely that Blac Chyna would seek to prosecute an individual that she co-parents with, but if she did move in that direction, it may teach Kardashian -- and other abusers, famous or otherwise -- a valuable lesson. Currently, Rob Kardashian thinks so little of the abuse he spews onto social media, he keeps doing it over and over again. Even Instagram's objections to the images he was posting did not to deter him from repeatedly posting them. There is a level of self-entitlement and privilege -- not to mention his own sense of being justified -- that should set alarm bells off for everyone in Rob Kardashian's vicinity, as well as everyone watching this whole sorry mess go down from a safe distance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kardashian's behavior is both abusive and illegal. It should be recognized as such and not merely treated as another slice of reality TV drama.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
