    Marquita Gammage, Ph. D. Appears on The Reading Circle with Marc Medley
    Feb 10 2024
    Marquita M. Gammage is a Full Professor in the Africana Studies Department at California State University, Northridge (CSUN). She earned her Ph.D. in African American Studies from Temple University. Dr. Gammage's research examines the calculus of media effect on the sustainability of anti-African racist ideologies through the intersection of race, gender, and media. By analyzing current popular media productions (reality TV, television dramas, social media, etc.) paired with an Afrocentric historical and cultural lens, her research demonstrates how the continued misrepresentations of Black womanhood in the media and society, in general, can be predictive of future public policy initiatives that endanger the freedom and liberties of African Americans. Additionally, her research explores racial equity and the academic success of African American students, high-impact practices, and asset-based pedagogy.

    Raised in Baltimore, Maryland, John Paul McGee, at the age of four without
    formal training, began playing familiar hymns and church songs by ear. Aware of
    his special gift, Dr. McGee's mother made the sacrifices necessary to ensure that
    John received formal musical training and development. Dr. McGee studied
    piano and pipe organ at New Shiloh School of Music where the renowned
    headmaster was the late great Dr. Nathan Carter, and graduated in 2002 from
    internationally acclaimed arts preparatory high school Baltimore School for the
    Arts with a certificate in piano and opera studies.

    John’s musical career has taken him around the globe as a keyboardist, vocal
    arranger, producer, and songwriter, collaborating with and appearing alongside
    popular gospel and secular artists from Patti Labelle to Najee, Stevie Wonder,
    the NFL players choir, and gospel legends Yolanda Adams, Donnie McClurkin,
    Kim Burrell, Cory Henry, Vashawn Mitchell, Earnest Pugh, and many others. His
    instrumental piano album, A Christmas with John Paul, released in 2014 with
    EPM records yielded him the #9 spot in the top 10 Billboard recording artists for.
    Along with the release of his first published book, John released an solo piano
    album in 2019 instrumental entitled “Elevate.”

    Music Degree with a concentration in Pipe Organ Performance from Emory
    University, and most recently a Doctorate of Ministry degree with a concentration
    in Pastoral Care and Counseling from The Interdenominational Theological
    Center in Atlanta, Ga. The groundbreaking research performed in his
    dissertation, A Sound for Distressed Souls: Gospejazzical as an NTU Approach
    for Coping with the Vocational Stressors of the Black Pastor, investigates the
    healing and curative powers of his new pianistic genre, Gospejazzical.
    Gospejazzical is a signature sound that unites three powerful genres (Gospel,
    Jazz and Classical) into a unique fusion that entertains, uplifts, and inspires all
    who hear. In 2022, John recorded and released the musical album
    “Gospejazzical” featuring the John Paul McGee trio, vocalists Wendi Henderson-
    Wyatt, Amber Bullock and Zebulon Ellis. In December 2022, the album was
    heard by the iconic musical legend Stevie Wonder who immediately invited John
    and the Trio to perform for his Annual House Of Toys Benefit Concert in Los
    Angeles, California before a sold out crowd of thousands.

    Through radio and streaming, John’s first mainstream album, Gospejazzical
    Volume 1, has reached hundreds of thousands of listeners across the world and
    maintained its position in the top 100 Jazz Weekly charts for several weeks.On
    November 16th,2023 he released his second holiday album, “A Gospejazzical
    Christmas,” and within two weeks of its release the album was #3 most added on
    Jazz Weekly, and #34 on the Smooth Jazz Holiday Charts!

    In May 2023, Berklee’s Assistant Chair of Piano Dr. John Paul McGee received
    an endorsement by Yamaha Artist services and joined the Yamaha Artist family.
    This is an invitation-only designation bestowed by Yamaha to musical artists
    considered to be critically acclaimed in their instruments or genres. It is stated by
    online publication, The Urban Music Scene, that one experience with John’s
    masterful musicianship and the way one hears gospel, jazz, and classical will
    never be the same.

    overthrow of Kwame Nkrumah as an example entitled, ‘Kwame Nkrumah and The Language of Oppression’ and a book on the Lacanian psychoanalytic notion of ‘Mirror Stages’. One of his essays ‘Storming the Capital: An Exercise in the Patriot Right to Violence’ was recently
