The Funk Movement : Music, Culture, and Politics
Rabaka explores funk as a distinct multiform of music, aesthetics, politics, social vision, and cultural rebellion that has been remixed and continues to influence contemporary Black popular music and Black popular culture, especially rap music and the Hip Hop Movement. The Funk Movement was a sub-movement within the larger Black Power Movement and its artistic arm, the Black Arts Movement.Moreover, the Funk Movement was also a sub-movement within the Black Women’s Liberation Movement between the late 1960s and late 1970s, where women’s funk, especially Chaka Khan and Betty Davis’s funk, was understood to be a form of “Black musical feminism” that was as integral to the movement as the Black political feminism of Angela Davis or the Combahee River Collective and the Black literary feminism of Toni Morrison or Alice Walker.This book also demonstrates that more than any other post-war Black popular music genre, the funk music of the 1960s and 1970s laid the foundation for the mercurial rise of rap music and the Hip Hop Movement in the 1980s and 1990s. This book is primarily aimed at scholars and students working in popular music studies, popular culture studies, American studies, African American studies, cultural studies, ethnic studies, critical race studies, women’s studies, gender studies, and sexuality studies.

Learning Movements : New Perspectives of Movement Education
Contemporary ways of understanding human movements, specifically movement learning, are heavily dominated by individualistic, dualistic and mechanistic perspectives.These perspectives are individualistic in the sense that in research as well as in educational practice movements/movers are typically decontextualized, they are dualistic in the sense that the body is taken to be ‘inhabited’, even ‘governed,’ by a rational mind which is not itself a part of that body; and they are mechanistic in the sense that movements and movement learning can be ‘calculated’.This approach has supported the dominance of a westernised and predominantly white, masculinised and heteronormative view of able bodies, embodiment and movements.Hence, it has contributed to marginalise not only other approaches and perspectives and individuals.New research has evolved, including new approaches and these held perspectives have been challenged by social and culturally sensitive, holistic as well as pluralistic, and dynamic/organic perspectives of human movements and moving humans.Examples of such research can be found in disciplines such as; physical education and pedagogy, ethnography, philosophy, and sociology.Learning Movements: New Perspectives of Movement Education provides the societal and epistemological background for these new approaches and will be essential in disseminating this knowledge to movement educators, academics and researchers as well as professionals within education, sports, health and fitness, dance, outdoor activities, etc., and that it will spearhead new and inclusive practices within these settings.

Physical Education and Movement in Waldorf Schools
The Waldorf school curriculum was developed to nurture the healthy development of the child, not only in mind but in body and spirit as well.Physical education and movement form an integral part of this holistic approach, encouraging children to be active not just for the sake of activity, but in order to experience themselves through meaningful movement and to form a stronger connection with the world around them. This indispensable book for teachers -- the most comprehensive of its kind available in English -- provides a wealth of practical insights on teaching physical education and movement in Waldorf Schools.It includes:-- Practical suggestions for games and exercises to teach a range of activities such as athletics, archery, climbing, gymnastics, dance, swimming and sailing. -- Over thirty sample lessons providing inspiration and quick, easy reference for activities for Classes 1-12. -- Exercises designed to suit different developmental stages: from simple, storytelling games for young children to more complex, demanding exercises for older pupils. -- Essays from teachers with decades of experience, exploring the value of physical education in Waldorf schools and how its emphasis on individual progress and co-operation over competition helps build pupils' confidence and self-belief. -- Suggestions of which Bothmer Movement exercises are best suited for different classes, based on an awareness of the laws of movement that underpin each age group. -- Practical advice on how teachers can adapt content covered in other subjects to create a more unified learning experience for pupils -- for example, organising their own Olympic Games to complement teaching about ancient Greece in history lessons. -- 250 inspiring colour photographs illustrating a variety of activities. This is an invaluable resource that provides both a wealth of practical ideas and a thoughtful consideration of physical education and movement that will give Steiner-Waldorf teachers confidence in preparing and delivering lessons.

Is mouth movement necessary in sign language?
Mouth movement is not always necessary in sign language, as sign language primarily relies on hand gestures, facial expressions, and body movements to convey meaning. However, in some sign languages, such as American Sign Language (ASL), mouth movement can be used to convey certain aspects of the language, such as differentiating between similar signs or indicating the tone or emotion of a message. In these cases, mouth movement can enhance the clarity and understanding of the signs being communicated.

What is better: quartz movement or automatic movement?
The choice between quartz and automatic movement ultimately depends on personal preference and lifestyle. Quartz movements are known for their accuracy, low maintenance, and affordability, making them a practical choice for everyday wear. On the other hand, automatic movements are favored for their craftsmanship, intricate mechanics, and the satisfaction of owning a traditional timepiece. Automatic movements also do not require a battery, as they are powered by the movement of the wearer's wrist, which can be appealing to some watch enthusiasts. Ultimately, the decision between quartz and automatic movement comes down to individual priorities and preferences.

'Rest or movement?'
Both rest and movement are important for overall health and well-being. Rest allows the body to recover and recharge, while movement helps to maintain physical fitness and flexibility. Finding a balance between the two is key, as too much rest can lead to stiffness and decreased energy, while too much movement can lead to fatigue and overexertion. It's important to listen to your body and give it the rest and movement it needs to stay healthy and strong.

Researching Global Education Policy : Diverse Approaches to Policy Movement
The movement of policy is a core feature of contemporary education reform.Many different concepts, including policy transfer, borrowing and lending, travelling, diffusion and mobility, have been deployed to study how and why policy moves across jurisdictions, scales of governance, policy sectors or organisations.However, the underlying theoretical perspectives and the foundational assumptions of different approaches to policy movement remain insufficiently discussed.To address this gap, this book places front and center questions of theory, ontology, epistemology and method related to policy movement.It explores a wide diversity of approaches to help understand the policy movement phenomena, providing a useful guide on global studies in education, as well as insights into the future of this dynamic area of work.

How has the ecumenical movement developed from the anecumenical movement?
The ecumenical movement has developed from the anecumenical movement by shifting the focus from division and exclusivity to unity and cooperation among different Christian denominations. The anecumenical movement was characterized by competition and conflict between different Christian groups, while the ecumenical movement seeks to promote dialogue, understanding, and collaboration. This shift has led to the establishment of organizations such as the World Council of Churches and the National Council of Churches, which work towards fostering unity and common purpose among Christians worldwide. The ecumenical movement has also expanded its scope to include dialogue and cooperation with other religious traditions, promoting interfaith understanding and cooperation.

What is the difference between movement description and movement analysis?
Movement description involves providing a detailed account of the physical actions and characteristics of a movement, such as the body parts involved, the sequence of movements, and the timing. On the other hand, movement analysis goes beyond just describing the movement and involves a deeper examination of the underlying principles, mechanics, and factors that influence the movement, such as biomechanics, motor control, and coordination. Movement analysis aims to understand the reasons behind how and why a movement is performed in a certain way, while movement description focuses on providing a clear and accurate account of the movement itself.

Is Japanese movement in watches inferior compared to Swiss movement?
Japanese movement in watches is not necessarily inferior compared to Swiss movement. Both Japanese and Swiss movements have their own strengths and weaknesses. Japanese movements, such as those made by companies like Seiko and Citizen, are known for their precision and durability. On the other hand, Swiss movements, particularly those made by brands like Rolex and Patek Philippe, are often associated with luxury and craftsmanship. Ultimately, the quality of a watch movement depends on the specific brand and model, rather than the country of origin.
