KIM presents her research at the national conference of Popular Culture and American Culture in New Orleans

The annual national conference is the Popular Culture Association / American Culture Association’s signature event. Each year, thousands of scholars from many academic disciplines across the globe travel to meet in a major American city to share and discuss their research at the conference in several venues: panel presentations, round tables, special sessions, film screenings, local tours, keynote speaker events, special awards ceremonies, and more. This year’s conference was held at the Marriott Canal Street hotel in New Orleans, from 16 – 19 April 2025. Kim presented the third chapter of her PhD: The importance of the “thick hourglass body ideal” in U.S. commercial women rap for young Dutch Black and White women’s body image. Her session/ talk was part of the Gender and Media Studies research area.

KIM contributes to the Amsterdam Museum Journal (Polylogue on reproduction in music)

I am pleased to announce that I contributed to the third edition of the Amsterdam Museum Journal. This third issue called ‘(Re)production’ is out now! The issue focusses on the role and implications of reproductions in and on our art, cultures and societies. By sharing diverse voices and perspectives, this edition aims to contribute to the understanding of (re)production as it increasingly becomes a part of our daily lives.
