Hardly the sort of licentious fare that would inflame Zulu houseboys to run up stairs and rape madame, as former Minister of Posts and Telegraph Albert Hertzog used to warn. Most of the country's 18 million blacks, in fact, were unable to see the programs because they live in urban slums and rural townships without electricity. One African, who won a television set in a contest last year, was given a portable generator to operate it. After weeks of watching the test transmissions, he decided to sell the TV and keep the generator. Many whites, on the other...
...story of Barry Lyndon. The reviewers will tell you O'Neal is a rogueish Lyndon. He seemed to me to be the type of guy who gets hit by the Second Avenue Subway while trying to rape a Tactical Force policeman in drag. Kubrick also ignores a potentially exciting view of the 1760s--the Hogarthian underside of English society. All told, the carefully composed landscapes and Kubrick's use of a new German lens to film in candlelight just save this film from being potboiler par excellance. That Kubrick's visuals can overcome such poor acting is a credit...
...March 1974, two men dragged Inez Garcia from her Soledad, Calif., apartment, and one of them raped her. That was what Mrs. Garcia later testified when she was tried for the murder of Miguel Jiminez, one of the alleged attackers.

At the trial, she said defiantly: "I'm only sorry I missed Luis." Feminists made an issue of the case, which they hoped would establish a woman's right to retaliate violently against rape...
Four years ago Susan Brownmiller, one of feminism's most articulate and visible activists, disappeared into the library stacks. She surfaced last fall with Against Our Will: Men, Women and Rape, the most rigorous and provocative piece of scholarship that has yet emerged from the feminist movement. Brownmiller's meticulously researched book?a kind of Whole Earth Catalog of man's inhumanity to woman or, as Novelist Lois Gould called it, "everything one never wanted to know about sex"?may significantly change the terms of the dialogue between and about men and women. Many shrink from her conclusions: that...
...play, Allott has issued a kind of quasi-Warhol manifesto that the plastic arts are exhausted and that the truly contemporary artist must orchestrate an "event" out of the materials immediately at hand. In that light, Allott may be seen to have orchestrated the specific mood that precipitated the rape, thus fashioning his own particular happening. On another level, Allott has expressed such acid contempt of his brush-wielding anthropophagi that the rape could conceivably symbolize the crude assault that some sad creature might make on a subject that he is totally incapable of mastering, either through study or craft...
