Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
This tongue-in-cheek book is a pop culture time capsule, celebrating and reliving the 1990s in all its tacky glory. A flashback to the iconic pop cultural moments of the decade--this is history at its most irreverent and engaging. Any '90s kid will find themselves reminiscing over Nickelodeon classics, the Spice Girls, Furbies, Robin Williams in Flubber, Pokémon cards, Titanic's haunting tin whistle soundtrack, Jelly shoes, and Leonardo DiCaprio's floppiest hairdo on record. Any millennial will tell you that the 1990s was the best decade to grow up in, even though many were still in diapers by the turn of the century. So much of '90s culture dictates ours today. Without Friends or Seinfeld, would our world still turn? If Nirvana hadn't made it big could grunge have ever reached the masses? Can anyone even pass a driving test without training in Mario Kart?? For the staying power of '90s pop culture, we have the Internet to thank. Kids of the '90s found themselves on the forefront of an online revolution, being the first to discover the distracting capabilities of the Internet. So, it's little surprise that meme culture is heavily steeped in references of the '90s. It's precisely these pop fanatics who will totally delight in this hella-illustrated throwback.

Everything Must Go
Author: Kevin Coval
Publisher: Haymarket Books
ISBN: 1642590835
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
A unique artistic tribute to a Chicago neighborhood lost to gentrification: “Kevin Coval made me understand what it is to be a poet” (Chance the Rapper, Grammy winner and activist). Everything Must Go is an illustrated collection of poems in the spirit of a graphic novel, a collaboration between poet Kevin Coval and illustrator Langston Allston. The book celebrates Chicago’s Wicker Park in the late 1990s, Coval’s home as a young artist, the ancestral neighborhood of his forebears, and a vibrant enclave populated by colorful characters. Allston’s illustrations honor the neighborhood as it once was, before gentrification remade it. The book excavates and mourns that which has been lost in transition and serves as a template for understanding the process of displacement and reinvention currently reshaping American cities. “Chicago’s unofficial poet laureate.” —NPR

90s Bitch
Author: Allison Yarrow
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062412353
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
Finalist for the Los Angeles Press Club Book Award, muse to a Givenchy fashion collection, and recommended by the TheNew York Times, The Skimm, US Weekly,The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, Refinery 29, Book Riot, Bitch Media, and more. "Yarrow’s biting autopsy of the decade scrutinizes the way society reduced — or “bitchified” — women at work, women at home, women in court, even women on ice skates . . . Direct quotes from politicians, journalists and comedians about the women provide the most jarring, oh-my-god-that-really-happened portions of Yarrow’s decade excavation." — Pittsburg Post-Gazette The nostalgic, smart, and shocking account of how the 90s set back feminism, undermined girls and women, and shaped the millennial generation from award-winning journalist, Allison Yarrow. To understand how we got here, we have to rewind the VHS tape. 90s Bitch tells the real story of women and girls in the 1990s, exploring how they were maligned by the media, vilified by popular culture, and objectified in the marketplace. Trailblazing women like Hillary Clinton, Anita Hill, Madeleine Albright, Janet Reno, and Marcia Clark, and were undermined. Newsmakers like Britney Spears, Monica Lewinsky, Tonya Harding and Lorena Bobbitt were shamed and misunderstood. The advent of the 24-hour news cycle reinforced society's deeply entrenched misogyny. Meanwhile, marketers hijacked feminism, sold “Girl Power,” and poisoned a generation. Today echoes of 90s “bitchification” still exist everywhere we look. To understand why, we must revisit and interrogate the 1990s—a decade in which empowerment was twisted into objectification, exploitation, and subjugation. Yarrow’s thoughtful, juicy, and timely examination is a must-read for anyone trying to understand 21st century sexism and end it for the next generation.
