- I'm thinking of scheduling IBARW 4 during July 27 - August 2. I checked a few calendars and do not think I am landing on any major holidays, but please let me know if I am wrong, and I will reschedule. I'll announce on the comm, which is now also on DW (
ibarw), once I get things sorted out.
- THIS by us is a student protest going on at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities Dance Program. It began with a few students a few students posting anti-racist words and images over the department hall, and it is currently being stonewalled by professors and other people in charge, who keep protesting that the students are too angry, don't have concrete goals, aren't being constructive, are being counter productive, and all those wonderful things we have all heard before. They are asking for people to comment on their blog (linked above) for support, to email the university, and to spread the word.
- The Avatar movie protest continues, with Viacom pulling down Avatar shirts on Zazzle. Unfortunately for their publicity people, this includes t-shirts from Racebending that protest "Aang Isn't White." (more info)
