This song was released in 1964, with a purpose to entertain, for the audience of other Native Americans with a shared experience of her. The song talks about the tragedies of the many massacres and wrongdoings that were done to the Native Americans throughout their history by the American government. Millions of lives were lost, the buffalo (an important animal to the Native American culture) population was ultimately destroyed, and the Native American\u2019s land was ripped away from them. This artist illustrates the pain of her and her ancestor\u2019s experience: turning it into music. The song is from a YouTube video.\u00a0This song displays the project\u2019s main idea of how women have used music to voice the pain they have felt through times of oppression.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Adrian Piper painting, &#8220;LSD Alice,&#8221; 1965<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5381\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/modern-us-history\/files\/2019\/12\/Image-12-18-19-at-4.56-PM-219x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"272\" height=\"372\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/modern-us-history\/files\/2019\/12\/Image-12-18-19-at-4.56-PM-219x300.jpg 219w, https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/modern-us-history\/files\/2019\/12\/Image-12-18-19-at-4.56-PM.jpg 432w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 272px) 100vw, 272px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW139289343 BCX4\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW139289343 BCX4\"><span class=\"TextRun SCXW168029935 BCX4\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW168029935 BCX4\">This source is a piece done by Adrian Piper in 1965. Piper is an African American artist whose art directly addressed topics such as racism, sexism, xenophobia, etc. This specific piece is an image of an outline of a woman who appears to be falling into a vortex. The piece plays with colors and patterns, and implies usage of LSD, which Piper experimented with in the 1960\u2019s. This piece of art was aimed at other young people who were also experimenting with drugs during the counterculture movement of the 1960\u2019s, in addition to other people of color and women in this time who had lesser civil rights. The piece emotes feelings of loneliness and disorientation; feelings shared by minority communities who rebelled during the 1960\u2019s because they were treated as second-class citizens. This source is a beautiful example in this project\u00a0of how women used the pain of the discrimination that they were faced with to create art that was able to unite other women and communities who could relate.<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW168029935 BCX4\" data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335551550&quot;:1,&quot;335551620&quot;:1,&quot;335559731&quot;:720,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Judith Golden piece, response to &#8220;What is Feminist Art?&#8221; 1976<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-5380\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/modern-us-history\/files\/2019\/12\/Image-12-18-19-at-4.57-PM-234x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"276\" height=\"354\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/modern-us-history\/files\/2019\/12\/Image-12-18-19-at-4.57-PM-234x300.jpg 234w, https:\/\/blogs.dickinson.edu\/modern-us-history\/files\/2019\/12\/Image-12-18-19-at-4.57-PM.jpg 590w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 276px) 100vw, 276px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"TextRun SCXW139289343 BCX4\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW139289343 BCX4\">This piece of art is a part of the 1976 exhibition \u201cWhat is Feminist Art?\u201d This exhibition was created by Ruth <\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW139289343 BCX4\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"SpellingError SCXW139289343 BCX4\">Iskin<\/span><\/span><span class=\"TextRun SCXW139289343 BCX4\" lang=\"EN-US\" xml:lang=\"EN-US\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW139289343 BCX4\">, Lucy Lippard, and Arlene Raven- three feminist activists- at the Woman\u2019s Building in Los Angeles and is now a part of the Archives of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.\u00a0 This piece is a mixed media artwork piece done by Judith Golden- a mixed media artist- in response to the question \u201cwhat is feminist art?\u201d and it is an image of a woman who is holding a piece of paper with an image of another woman\u2019s painted lips over her mouth. The piece emotes a feeling of detachment and hopelessness. Women in the second wave feminist movement of the 1960\u2019s and \u201870\u2019s were able to express their feelings of uselessness, and the feeling that their voices were not heard.

This document was created by the California Commission on the Status of Women; an organization that works with public policymakers and educates the public to create change for women\u2019s rights. The purpose of the source is to inform those involved in the fine arts programs in colleges and universities across California of the exclusion of women from these programs, and to persuade those individuals and organizations to take the Commission\u2019s recommendations for change. The report is composed of data collected from surveys across 50 California colleges and universities and concludes that even with the assistance of affirmative action, women are still facing discrimination in these programs. This source also provides recommendations, including educational, financial, and legislative recommendations. This source was located on the Alexander Street database in the Dickinson library.
