Cal State Long Beach students, professors and community residents participated in a discussion panel at the Carpenter Performing Arts Center on Thursday, Sept. 29. The event, called “In Context: Art, Race and Censorship,” allowed panelists to discuss the cancellation of the play “N*gger, W*tback, Ch*nk” and related it to the intersections of art, race and censorship. The panel was prompted by the College of the Arts Dean, Cyrus Parker-Jeanette, who said she worked closely with former executive director of CPAC, Michele Roberge, while N*W*C was being held at the center. N*W*C was cancelled in early

Subsequent to the incident, many social media users said that the cancellation was an act

The Long Beach Post hosted its 40 Under 40 event Thursday night where seven Cal State University Long Beach alumni were recognized for their service to Long Beach and the community. According to Dennis Dean, director of operations at the Long Beach Post, 40 Under 40 began in 2012 as a way to recognize the top 40 people under the age of 40 who contribute to the betterment of Long Beach. The CSULB alumni recognized at the event, along with the other nominees, work in various sectors of the community as business owners, community activists and politicians.

September by CSULB President Jane Close Conoley after ethnic studies faculty members voiced negative feedback toward the content of the play and its ability to inspire progressive conversa-

tions about race. The panel was followed by a discussion that gave students and community members the opportunity to discuss the cancellation and their opinions about it.

continued from page 1 of censorship, while ethnic studies faculty members retained that the play had no place in conversations about race. Catha Paquette, an art historian, writer and member of CSULB’s Faculty of Art, spoke on the censorship debate at hand. She said that as university educators, censorship isn’t ideal but in an academic environment, there is a responsibility to protect the students and facilitate learning in a way that is respectful of the artists showing their art and respectful to the students who will be an audience. Paquette also mentioned that the cancellation of the play was influenced by a lack of proper advertising after Roberge booked the show. As soon as the discussion was turned over to the audience, Roberge took the floor to contest points made. “Catha, you are a wonderful human being, but you don’t have the story correct,” Roberge said. “I guess that’s part of the problem,” Paquette replied. A few Associated Students Inc. members took the opportunity to explain why they chose to support the play when it was first showcased in the fall 2015 semester. “The reason why ASI had support-

ed the play is because we thought we were supporting an institution that was supposed to be an intersectional and educational experience for our students,” ASI Vice President Logan Vournas said. Jaye Austin Williams, assistant

-Michele Roberge Former executive director of CPAC

professor in the Theatre Arts Department, said that there is not a definitive answer to whether or not it was a good idea to cancel the play. “I think it’s layered and complex, because what you have is a series of reflexes that are dynamically in play,” she said. “You have this relationship between people of color and our

allies and that relationship is very complicated.” Williams further explained that even though member of different minority communities might have certain hardships in common, most struggles minority groups experience still have to be taken in on their own terms. The conversation of trigger warnings in art and safe spaces at university campuses rose between the panelists, as well as the importance and function of allies in marginalized communities. Allies are people from majority groups that help minority groups advocate for the minority’s agenda. A trigger warning is a statement placed at the start of any given content that can potentially offend or disturb the audience. Additionally, safe spaces are places where anyone can relax and express themselves without any fear of uncomfortability or being unwelcomed such as the discussion panel on the cancellation of N*W*C. “Very often there’s this idea that a safe space means that nobody can say anything that makes anybody uncomfortable and that is not the case,” said Shefali Mistry, public relations and marketing coordinator at CSULB University Art Museum. “Often, safe spaces get co-opted by allies. The most important role of an ally is to shut up. The role of an ally is to listen and to find in what way is

best to help.” As allies in the university were attempting to go forward with the play, they had to make sure to do it in most respectful and culturally sensitive way possible. “The vice president of student affairs [Carmen Taylor] would not allow me to advertise the play in the

dorms,” Roberge said. “We worked diligently to talk to ethnic faculty members so that they could participate in N*W*C, and there was no gracious participation.” Parker-Jeanette said she worked closely with Roberge in order to increase the relevance of the play and advocate for its positive return. The plans included presenting racial topics through separate platforms to aid in interpreting N*W*C, such as panel presentations and film

screenings, according to Parker-Jeanette. However, the play was still heavily discouraged by faculty after these alternative plans were presented. Parker-Jeanette said that when she shared the input she received with Conoley, “cancellation was determined.” “ASI representatives went to see the play last year and described to me, a white person, that as students of color, the play was an uncomfortable setting,” Vournas said. “We were supporting an institution that did not serve the experiences we once thought it would.” CSULB grad student Olivia Sather said she was interested in exploring the dialogue between the panelists and the audience. “I think that this is a complicated issue,” Sather said. “I think that it was good for our community to have this dialogue. But I also think that this is about listening and figuring out how as a community, we can work things together. As a white person, I think it is important to listen.” Opening that dialogue is one of the positives that Parker-Jeannette credits to the cancellation. “I have hope that we’re going to be OK,” Parker-Jeanette said. “The beautiful thing is that this conversation doesn’t end here. This conversation starts here.” Miranda Andrade-Ceja contributed to this story.

UPD releases photo of person of interest By Michaela Kwoka-Coleman News Editor

Cal State Long Beach University Police Department has issued a photo of a woman identified as a “person of interest” for passing counterfeit $100 bills on campus. According to a UPD crime bulletin, there were three separate occasions of fake $100 bills being used on campus in September, all of which happened at the CSULB University Art Store on upper campus. Anyone who has information about the person of interest is asked to contact the CSULB Police Department. Carolyn Cole | Los Angeles Times

all graduates of CSULB — were recognized for their roles as business leaders in Long Beach. Another CSULB alumna recognized was Katie Rispoli Keotami, founder and executive director of We Are The Next. We Are The Next is a non-profit organization that works for government agencies and other organizations to maintain, repair and restore historical places. The last CSULB alumni to be recognized were Kehau Fujikami, director of operations at Long Beach Blast, Mercelle Epley, president at the Long Beach Community Foundation and Brian Addison, communications manager at Downtown Long Beach Associates. The 40 winners were selected based on an open nomination in early September. Community members wrote a set of synopses explaining the reason why their nominee should be recognized as one of the top 40 youngest Long Beach influencers. Long Beach Police Department Commander Randy Allen announced and awarded the 40 nominees alongside Mayor Robert Garcia and Long Beach Post publisher Cindy Allen. “You make Long Beach great,” Mayor Garcia told the nominees. CSULB alumna Kehau Fujikami, director of operations at the non-profit organization Long Beach Blast, said she was surprised that Long Beach Blast’s founder Jean Egan nominated her.

“We’ve worked closely for years,” Fujikami said, “I’ve seen her as [a] mentor and I truly appreciate the nomination.” Fujikami graduated from CSULB in 2002 with a Bachelor of Arts in business management and said that CSULB opened the doors for her to be part of Long Beach Blast, which provides after-school learning for at-risk children. “To see the need here in Long Beach of providing college students a mentor or role model that they don’t really have in their lives, that’s where my passion lies,” Fujikami said. CSULB alumni Brian Addison worked as the executive director of the Long Beach Post and is now part of Downtown Long Beach Associates. While doing his undergraduate studies at Cal State Fullerton, Addison decided to move to Long Beach. He graduated from CSULB with his MFA in writing in 2010. Downtown Long Beach Associates works for the community development in different sectors such as management, marketing, security, maintenance and economy. “I wanted to focus on the diversity, the dynamism of DTLB in all facets,”Addison said in an email. “So, I started creating daily content that wasn’t just about our organization, but about people, small businesses, artists.” In the same email, sent last week, Addison announced his resignation and said he will pursue building his own company – a communications firm that will help the online presence of Long Beach organizations, restaurants and other businesses. The 40 Under 40 awards are held every year, giving as many opportunities as possible for locals to be recognized for their positive influences in the community.

Trump’s $916 million loss in ‘95 revealed By Kevin Cirilli Bloomberg News

MANHEIM, Pa. — Donald Trump was facing renewed pressure to release his personal tax information after a New York Times report that he recorded a $916 million loss on his 1995 income tax return, a deduction that might have allowed him to cut his federal income tax for several ensuing years. The Times, citing tax analysts, reported on Saturday night that based on Trump’s 1995 income tax returns, he might have been able to reduce his tax bills for as many as 18 years. The newspaper posted to its website three documents, which purported to be from state tax returns in New York, Connecticut and New Jersey. It received the documents in the mail last month, the newspaper said. Trump’s campaign said in a statement that he “has paid hundreds of millions of dollars in property taxes, sales and excise taxes, real estate taxes, city taxes, state taxes, employee taxes and federal taxes.” It also said the tax documents – which it referred to as an “alleged tax document,” had been “illegally obtained.” “Mr. Trump knows the tax code far better than anyone who has ever run for president and he is the only one that knows how to fix it,” according to the campaign statement.

Departing from roughly 40 years of tradition for presidential nominees, Trump has declined to release his tax returns. He says they are under an Internal Revenue Service audit and that he won’t release them until that audit has concluded. There’s no law preventing people from releasing their tax returns, even if they’re under audit. But tax advisers say that doing so would subject the returns to public scrutiny that might surface issues auditors had missed. The Post’s report was based on returns Trump had filed with the New Jersey Casino Control Commission in 1981. For 1978 and 1979, Trump took advantage of a taxcode provision popular with developers that allowed him to report negative income, according to the Post. He told the newspaper, “When you’re in the real estate business, you do have certain tax advantages.” Developers can depreciate the value of real estate to reduce their taxable income. If genuine, the 1995 documents that the Times released Saturday revolve around “net operating losses” – which under federal tax rules allow a business to apply losses from any one year to future years – reducing taxable income in those years. In 1995, taxpayers could “carry forward” such losses for 15 years, the Times reported, and apply them for three years retroactively. The rules are meant to smooth out fluctuations in taxable income over time.

Ghosts and ghouls Dark Harbor at the Queen Mary makes guests run and scream.

By Jason Enns Arts & Life Editor

f you find yourself trapped in a confined space with gruesome monsters coming at you from all directions, you might be in a horror movie – or you might be at the Queen Mary’s Dark Harbor. A full carnival set-up is constructed in the parking lot of the Queen Mary, devoted to all things Halloween. Dark Harbor is equipped with mazes, performers, music, food, drinks, rides – and, of course, monsters. Anyone who is a fan of fright can pay to live out a real life horror film experience. The Dark Harbor is available every Thursday through Sunday during the month of October. The attraction opened its doors for the first time on Sept. 29, inviting celebrities and members of the media to a sneak preview of mazes and monsters. At 5 p.m., guests such as Joey Lutheran from “General Hospital,” FYI’s “He Shed She Shed” host Luke Barr, Nickelodeon’s Brec Bassinger and the band New District walked the “black carpet.” The actors went through the park among other VIP guests, getting scared by the park’s actors jumping out at them. Regardless of what type of horror fan you are, Dark Harbor has something for everyone, and those who aren’t fans

of being scared might consider stepping out of their comfort zone for a night of fun. “It’s a necessary part of life,” first time Dark Harbor attendee Bob Mariorenzi said. “You get too much of reality out there all the time; you [have] got to have a little fun some time.” The park is equipped with six main mazes. “Intrepid” takes you on a virtual train ride through an industrial wasteland. It tells the story of the Iron Master, the undead creator and protector of the Queen Mary, whose hand is replaced with a ship anchor, and can be seen walking throughout the harbor. The “Circus” maze is a popular attraction, often having the longest line. It’s full of disorienting illusions. It has a room full of mirrors that make it nearly impossible to find your way out, and a rotating hallway that makes you feel like you’re going to fall over. “‘Circus’ is fun because you get lost in those mirrors – that’s the best,” said Chad Roberts, an actor who recently did work on the TV show “Modern Family.” “Deadrise” is a sunken ship maze that has guests walking through foggy shipping crates and surprises them not only with ghosts, but with exploding barrels that splash water on the maze-walkers. Many guest would exclaim: “That one is my favorite” upon exiting “Lullaby,” a maze that takes visitors under

the sea to the watery grave of Scary Mary — one of Dark Harbor’s token characters. The maze goes into the Queen Mary, past the out-of-use pool, a ghostly bartender and ghoulish concierge. Several actresses are dressed as Mary, who is hoping to bring guests into the afterlife to play with her forever. “If I had to choose a top three, it would be ‘Lullaby,’ ‘Circus’ and probably ‘Intrepid,’” said Brandon Tyler Russell, an actor from the upcoming film “Halloween: The Night Evil Died.” “I like ‘Lullaby’ because my favorite character here is Scary Mary with the teddy bear.” “Soulmate” and “B340” also take maze-goers into the ship, to be lured by Graceful Gale who is in search of a suitor in “Soulmate” and into the asylum that held Samuel the Savage in “B340.” “Queen Mary is legit haunted,” said Justin Tinucci, an actor who just finished shooting a film entitled “Devil’s Whisper.” “Knowing the back story of the Queen Mary and some of the stuff that’s gone down here makes some of this [better]. B340 is one of the most haunted rooms in the ship.” Monsters at the Dark Harbor never break character, and even when you’re not in the mazes creatures lurk all over the grounds. “The cool thing here is the entire area is one scare zone,” Tinucci said. The fact that there is no escaping the terror in the confines of the smaller park is one reason why Russell said he enjoys Dark Harbor. Not only does the park offer several scary attractions, but there are many performances as well. There

The sliders are a crew that puts on a limbo show, using metal pads to grind across the asphalt. “The sliders are the Iron Master’s apprentices, we came in with him on ‘Intrepid’ and we’re here to reclaim the ship. It’s rightfully ours, we built it,” the character known as Slider Nemo said. “The captain [took it from us and] he claims that he’s a great sailor but he seems to have sailed right into port and it’s stayed

here for 40 years, clearly he isn’t fit to rule.” According to Dark Harbor characters, the Iron Master built the Queen Mary, but it has been taken over by the ghoul known as “The Captain,” a green, rotting zombie in a sailor’s uniform. He is captain of the ship and emcee of the event each night. The monsters get very close to guests – close enough to even blow on the backs of guests heads – but they don’t touch them. The actors also have a keen sense for who is

most susceptible to fear. Recording artist Serena Laurel found that she was an easy target for the monsters. “They don’t want to scare people who are going to punch them, and they don’t want to scare people who aren’t going to react,” Laurel said. “I am neither of those things.” For those looking for a night full of adrenaline pumping jump scares, there’s no reason to break the bank. Dark Harbor at the Queen Mary is a scary good time right here in town, and tickets start at just $20.

California’s need for weed

A look into how the legalization of marijuana will help California’s economy thrive. By Chrystina Schwartz Staff Writer

olorado, Washington and Oregon all have something unconventional in common — and no, it’s not that they’re all states; the three have legalized marijuana in their respective territories and have seen some serious success from this kind of legislative choice. Colorado has seen a $150 million increase in tax revenues, Washington has seen a decrease in violent crime since the passage and Oregon is saving millions in law enforcement resources previously used to enforce marijuana laws. Now, it’s California’s turn. Californian policymakers should take the necessary steps to legalizing a widely-used substance that is virtually not harmful in comparison to other drugs such as alcohol. Voters should realize that a reliable approach to regulating and taxing marijuana is in their best interest, for it will collect millions of dollars in tax revenues to strengthen the state’s financial infrastructure. Proposition 64, the California Marijuana Legalization Initiative, is by far the best approach to decriminalizing recreational marijuana use on the California ballot. Whether you smoke weed or not, strongly consider the benefits of legalizing, regulating and taxing marijuana in the state of California before the vote this November. wwIt benefits the state with lower crime rates, around a billion dollars in revenue that could create a new plethora of jobs in the state. Lower Crime Rates Washington experienced a 63 percent decrease in all marijuana violations and an 81 percent decrease in marijuana convictions after legalization. In Colorado, there was a 46 percent decrease in marijuana arrests, along with 81 percent drop in filed marijuana charges, according to a report by Drug

Policy Alliance. While it’s obvious that the decriminalization of marijuana would result in lower crime rates, this is a massive percentage of people who would have otherwise been imprisoned for their nonviolent crimes. Knowing this, we can expect large drops in any marijuana charges in California. I’m convinced crime will not only go down, but members of the public may hold less resentment for police who may have busted them for smoking a joint otherwise. Prisons across the state are overcrowded, but not all inmates are necessarily violent criminals — many of these inmates are in jail for drug offenses, including people who were caught buying, selling or using marijuana. In 2014, there were 700,993 nationwide arrests involving marijuana and 88 percent were for possession only, according to Drug Policy Alliance. What does this information mean? Thousands of marijuana users — not violent criminals — are being thrown in jail. It’s a bleak reality: one where law enforcement are busting smokers, taking away time and energy from capturing dangerous criminals that hurt the community substantially more than a couple of potheads. As reported by the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes

of Health, marijuana is substantially safer than other legal substances, like tobacco. According to an article titled “Marijuana May be the Least Dangerous Recreational Drug” for the Huffington Post by writer Matt Ferner, “researchers found that marijuana has the lowest risk of mortality and is safer than the commonly used alcohol and tobacco as well as the rest of the drugs in the study.” Knowing this information, if marijuana is less dangerous than alcohol and even less addictive than caffeine, what is the point in trying to spend so much money on keeping it illegal? There is no point. Instead of law enforcement using millions of taxpayer dollars in order to criminalize non-violent marijuana users, they should focus on more serious crimes. The reality is, people are going to buy weed whether it’s legal or not — might as well tax them and help out communities across the state. $1 Billion in Revenue The law would generate over $1 billion in estimated revenue, according to a report by the Independent Analysts Office. That isn’t including the $100 million saved through resources used by law enforcement in criminalizing

marijuana use. So, if marijuana is legalized, where would its newly generated revenue go? Certain amounts are allocated toward academic research on the toll the research has taken on the state — which, from the looks of what has happened in states like Colorado, Washington and Oregon, will be a positive one. Furthermore, communities that have been negatively affected by black market sales of narcotics will see extensive funding on social services readily available for them. The money generated from weed’s legalization in the state is prioritized and given to communities of a low socioeconomic standing — making the pros outweigh the cons. Now I’m sure you’re wondering, what negative might come from the legalization of weed? Well, there is a chance that a plethora of weed dispensaries, or “pot shops,” will pop up across areas that are struggling financially. However, there are restrictions that keep marijuana stores from within a certain distance of schools, parks or any place where children are frequently present. Yet, if cities receive funding from marijuana sales, that money that could go toward opening parks and more schools in the area, further restricting the amount of “pot shops” that

The Verdict Marijuana has been illegal in California for long enough. The criminalization of marijuana has only resulted in overpopulated prisons and massive government spending. Let’s put things in perspective: as of right now, millions of untaxed dollars are being pumped into black market sales of weed, while millions are being spent on its criminalization. California can’t afford this kind of money spending anymore. We may not be able to end the drought but Proposition 64 is an easy way to make it rain money on us all.

could open in the city limits. It’s also worth noting that weed-smokers cannot smoke in public places — but rather only in the privacy of their home and designated areas. Can California really afford to say no to over a billion dollars in revenue? Attempting to find a stable, decent paying job in metropolises like Los Angeles and San Francisco can prove difficult. This industry, if legalized, may help people acquire new employment opportunities as a result of the new jobs that this law passage will generate. Furthermore, communities of a low socioeconomic background will receive the funding that they long for.

49ers remain on top with win Long Beach State women’s beat UC Santa Barbara to move to 4-0 in Big West. By Luke Ramirez Staff Writer

Behind freshman YiZhi Xue’s career-high 12 kills, the 49ers swept UC Santa Barbara Saturday at the Walter Pyramid. The 6 feet 4 inch freshman had a .556 hitting percentages and got the crowd cheering with her emphatic strikes as she help the 49ers (10-7,

4-0) won their fourth consecutive game. According to head coach Brian Gimmillaro, UC Santa Barbara (106) was dealing with a few injuries which lead to a mismatch that put Xue in a position to have a great match offensively. Xue also attributed her success in the match to LBSU’s sophomore setter Missy Owens. “[Missy] knew which hitter could avoid the block tonight,” Xue said. “Her mind [was] so clear and [she] is setting the right [hitters] right now.” In the first set, UCSB played well but had trouble containing LBSU’s hitters. Senior outside hitter Nele Barber had six kills and junior middle

blocker Ashley Murray hit .500 with four kills. Murray denied UCSB a set point with a kill that tied the set at 24. The 49ers won the first set 28-26. The second set had more dramatics, but LBSU took control and won the set 25-22. Xue had her best set converting five of six attacking attempts and had no problem placing her hits to get points. In the final set LBSU sealed the match with a 25-18 win. Owens finished the match with 42 assists while three of her teammates finished with double-digit kills. Barber had 12 kills along with Xue, and Murray finished with 10 kills and a .308 hitting average. Sophomore middle blocker Pey-

ton Grahovac had a stellar match as well contributing nine kills. The win keeps LBSU’s conference record perfect at 4-0 after the 49ers beat Cal Poly in three sets friday night as well. “I’m not surprised we won both matches in three sets,” Gimmillaro said. “I expect this team to win every point.” Looking ahead at the schedule for LBSU, they hit the road to play UC Riverside on Saturday and host Big West favorite Hawai’i who is also undefeated in conference on Oct. 8. “I have heard they are pretty good,” Xue said. “After watching video of them play, I think we can beat them. We are confident.”

on the offensive. With just 20 seconds left, the 49ers scored their sixth goal of the match. At halftime, LBSU led Occidental 9-0. When the third period started, Occidental scored its first goal. LBSU scored three more times in the fourth period. “Versus [Occidental] we did have a couple of things [we could fix],” sophomore center Zach Minott said. “It was a game where we could work on things that we needed to work on, but overall we did what we had to do.” In its second match of the day, LBSU faced LBCC (6-1). Against the Vikings, the 49ers flexed its scoring prowess, leading 13-1 heading into the final period. In the fourth quarter, LBCC tried to cut the lead but weren’t able to as the 49ers scored four goals to take a 17-2 lead. “The key factors [of the two wins] were how we played together as a team and how we were always setting each other up [with] good team defense,” sophomore defender Austin Stevenson said. “Overall, it was the effort of the team.” While playing against less competitive colleges and junior colleges LBSU will look to better itself as a team and grow through practice. Head coach Gavin Arroyo mentioned that these games will help LBSU figure out weaknesses that the team needs to work on. It will also help them get potential recruits on campus by looking at how the players from junior colleges play. “It’s a win-win situation,” Arroyo said. LBSU finished the day against Golden West in a 13-6 win. After their homestand, the 49ers will hit the road to take on UC Berkeley Thursday.

GOLDEN GOAL

By Matthew Simon Sports Editor

The moment was set. Score and the game is over. With a free kick just outside of the box, junior forward Jessica Vincent lined up and delivered a goal to the bottom left corner to give Long Beach State a 2-1 win over Cal State Northridge in the 103rd minute Sunday night at George Allen Field. “It was the time to do it,” Vincent said. “I wanted it and it just worked in our favor. I kind of knew when it came off my foot that it was at least

going to be hard for the keeper and when I saw the keeper not shift — I knew it was a goal.” Vincent’s goal wouldn’t have been possible if junior forward Ashley Gonzales didn’t score on a header after senior midfielder Mimi Rangel delivered a perfect pass in the 67th minute to tie the game at one. “The whole game was just: get a goal we need to win,” Gonzales said. “We’ve been on a little bit of a rough patch, but we’re trying to get back on track...I just knew no matter if the keeper was going to hit me or not, I just had to go for the ball.” The Matadores (5-3-5, 0-1-1) took a 1-0 lead in the 42nd minute of the first half after senior

midfielder Taylor Hobson scored on off a deflection. At halftime, CSUN led the 49ers 1-0 and outshot LBSU 8-7. In the second half, the 49ers had another chance to win the game when freshman forward Kaitlin Fregulia connected on a cross from a set piece, but was blocked by CSUN’s junior goalkeeper Jovani McCaskill. McCaskill and the 49ers’ senior goalkeeper Ashton McKeown kept each other’s team in the game as they combined for a total of 12 saves. Throughout the game, the 49ers (5-5-2, 1-0-1) and Matadores exchanged shots as the two bat-

tled for the win. “[It was] just a great game,” LBSU head coach Mauricio Ingrassia said of the double overtime victory. “Just two teams leaving it all out on the field... Both teams had to play in 110 minute overtimes on Friday, so I think the legs were a little heavy.” The win gives Long Beach State a lift as they continue through Big West play after having one of the toughest preseason schedules in the country. “For us, having the schedule we’ve had — it’s mentally fatiguing, so we needed a win in a bad way,” Ingrassia said.
