“…Clear connections between protests, performance, and identity are evident in scholarship focusing on issues of protest and reform. Fuoss (1993) describes how in 1936 a group of protesters representing the Workers' Alliance of America used performance as a means to display their displeasure with the New Jersey State Assembly. These protesters literally took over the state house chamber and assumed the roles of their various state representatives in order to illustrate, through performance, their displeasure their state politicians' actions.…”

Native American groups across the country have been protesting the use of their symbols and heritage in sports arenas for over a decade. Yet, particularly in the realm of professional sports, these protests have not generated significant changes in attitudes and practices. This critical essay examines several Native American protest events to reveal the factors contributing to the failure of the reform movement and to suggest some strategies for rhetorically reformulating the campaign.

This study examines the near 40-year publishing history of Literature in Performance: A Journal of Literary and Performing Art (1980-1988) and Text and Performance Quarterly (1989-present) for evidence of shifting trends in performance scholarship. The history of this journal is inextricable from the development of performance studies in communication, as its changing content and structure reveal pivotal developments and "turns" in the field. We map these trendstoward literature, feminist thought, queer performance, multi/cultural performance, media, and the personal turnbefore speculating about the current and future trajectories of performance studies in communication.
