BxMuscle's definitions
A term originating from Claude Brown's 1965 memoir "Man-Child in the Promised Land" about growing up in the streets of 1940s and 50s Harlem, NYC, one of the earliest and most powerful accounts of ghetto life and its culture. A "Man-Child" originally referred to a boy or adolescent from the streets who was prematurely exposed to and knowledgeable about sex, violence and crime, incarceration, adult responsibility for younger siblings due to a dysfunctional home, and hustling to make a living.
You think life in the 'hood is rough now? Check out Brown's book one day. By the time he was 15 he'd already been locked up, hustling for a living and doing whatever he had to to survive as a man-child on the streets.

Get the Bitched Out mug.French term meaning "blow to the state" coined after General Napoleon Bonaparte's 1799 seizure of power and suppression of the Constitution of 1795 in that country. Though often associated with military uprisings a "coup" is defined as any entity within a existing political system that acts illegally to appropriate all power to that entity while often violently suppressing other institutions and power-centers (media, legislatures, trade unions, political parties, etc.).
You know, the 1917 so-called "Bolshevik Revolution" of Lenin and his people in Russia is interpreted by some historians as really just a coup d'etat by an armed political party when Lenin's followers used their control over the capital's local government to seizure control of the whole city, drive out the national government and use St. Petersburg to launch their conquest of the country.

Get the Coup d'etat mug.A term originally associated with 19th century German philosophy, especially that of Hegel, in which the positive action of a person (the Subject/actor) transformed that which was acted upon (the Object/thing acted upon). 20th century radicals subsequently referred to cultures or peoples who were exploited, sexualized or romanticized in by Westerners as being "Objectified" in and by Western culture, rather than understood has having their own identities and agency.
Tunisian novelist Albert Menni's "The Colonizer and the Colonized" is one of the best books about how the European conquest of North Africa objectified Arabs and their culture.
