CHAMPIONS For the first time in program history, women’s basketball will be hanging a WNIT championship banner in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.
By Murphy Wheeler jonmwhee@iu.edu | @murph_wheelerIU
Not many teams can say they end their season on a win. Very few players can say the same about their careers. Even fewer can say they end it with a championship. The IU women’s basketball team and its seniors Tyra Buss and Amanda Cahill did just that with their 65-57 victory over Virginia Tech in the WNIT Championship on Saturday. As they walked off the court at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall in their cream and crimson jerseys for the last time, Buss and Cahill walked away from their storied careers at IU, champions at last. “It’s definitely a bittersweet feeling. We’re obviously really honored that we got the chance to keep playing and get to go out on a win,” Cahill said. “But it’s going to be sad taking off that jersey and knowing we’re not going to be putting it back on and come back out in front of our home crowd with our teammates.” However, the way in which they clinched their title was nothing new for the duo. Not only has an indelible amount of fight become synonymous with Buss and Cahill’s four years of basketball in Bloomington, it has also become the
story of their team’s improbable run this season from an 8-12 record in January to cutting down the nets less than three months later. They’ve had to fight every inch of the way, and Saturday’s win was no different. After a back-and-forth first half, the Hoosiers were able to take a 36-27 lead into halftime after holding the Hokies to 10-29 shooting and forcing 10 first-half turnovers. However, in the third, the Hoosiers got dangerously close to a meltdown. While shooting just 3-14 from the field and missing all five of their 3-point attempts, the Hoosiers only scored seven points in the quarter and let Virginia Tech claw their way back to take a 44-43 lead heading into the fourth. It was the first time the Hoosiers had been down in the second half of a game during their entire WNIT run. With the season and her career on the line, Buss said that’s when she and her teammates needed to fight to survive the most. “Coach challenged us because we had to tough it out and needed to fight,” Buss said. “We weren’t really fighting in the third quarter and that let them go on a run.” They needed to be reinvigorated. They needed new life. That jolt of energy came in the form of freshman guard Bendu Yeaney
early in the fourth quarter. She scored the first four points of the period and helped the Hoosiers retake the lead. Then, with just under five minutes remaining and the Hoosiers having missed their first 13 3-pointers of the game up to that point, Yeaney hit a dagger three from the corner. Cahill then followed that with a three of her own on their next possession to stretch the lead back to nine points. Like a passing of the torch, the veterans followed the freshman making big plays down the stretch. Yeaney said she credited her late-game confidence, along with her overall development throughout her freshman season, to Buss and Cahill leading by example. “I’ve learned to always stay confident and always have energy because that’s what they do every single day in practice,” Yeaney said. “It’s impacted me in practices and you can see it games now too.” Once the final buzzer had sounded and the Hoosiers had safely secured the victory, champions weren’t the only thing Buss and Cahill would leave as. As evidenced by the IU women’s basketball record crowd of 13,007 fans in attendance, the two had led the program to new heights, just like they had set out to do four years ago upon their arrival to Bloomington. “They’re going to go down in history

as two of the very best,” IU Coach Teri Moren said. “They’ve put us in a situation now where we want more. In order to do that, we have a lot of work ahead of us but we know we have a great foundation and that came from those two kids.” One by one, IU’s players, still covered in red and white celebratory streamers, climbed a ladder to cut down the nets of Assembly Hall. The last two slivers of nylon were left for Buss and Cahill, with the entire net coming down on Buss’ final clip of the scissors. Buss, with the net draped around her neck, walked off the court with nothing left to prove. It had all culminated in that moment. The fight was over. “We’re still going to be able to hang a banner and Amanda and I can come back and look up there and see that we helped get that banner and win a championship,” Buss said. “It was definitely worth it and I’m so happy with the way it ended.”

A Bloomington firefighter was arrested for child solicitation and sexual misconduct with a minor Friday morning. The firefighter, Robert Sears, is a 20-year veteran and captain at the Bloomington Fire Department. He spent two days in the Monroe County Correctional Center. A Bloomington Police Department detective was investigating another case involving a 14-year-old girl using the messaging app Whisper, according to a BPD press release, leading the detective to discover the inappropriate relationship with the fire captain. The conversations with the captain seemed to have begun in February 2018. The captain reportedly said he “worked 24 hour shifts at the fire department” and reminded the 14-year-old girl to erase their communications.
According to the BPD release, the detective determined Sears was the one communicating and that Sears and the juvenile were likely involved in sexual activity. The detective, according to the release, pretended to be the the juvenile and convinced Sears he should come over to her house where he said the 14-year-old and another girl were alone. The detective told Sears to bring condoms. Detectives conducted surveillance of the area and noticed a truck had driven by the home twice. The detectives stopped the vehicle with Sears inside. Condoms were among the items found in the truck. Police took Sears to BPD where officers interviewed him. According to the BPD release, he drove from his Mitchell, Indiana, home and bought condoms with the intent to have sex with one or both of the SEE FIREFIGHTER, PAGE 5

Home, for now. College students across the country struggle to afford housing. James Mynatt is no exception. By Zoe Spilker zspilker@indiana.edu | @zoespilker
TY VINSON | IDS
James Mynatt stands next to a sticker stating, “Science reason and secular values,” on his truck. James leads a secular group at Ivy Tech Community College and prides himself on his outgoing and spontaneous personality.
Monday just before 9 p.m., James Mynatt has finished watching the news on his phone, set against the dash of his truck. Parked on a deadend road on the west side of Bloomington, he’s settling down to sleep. His jeans are bundled up under the steering wheel. He prefers to sleep in sweats, but he keeps his pants close so he can grab his billfold in the back pocket in case the cops come knocking on his window. “What are you doing?” the officers ask him sometimes. “Does this truck belong to you?” He wakes before sunrise to get to Ivy Tech Community College. Maybe he’ll grab breakfast on the way at McDonald’s, though he calls it Burger World. He’ll wash up there and be on campus when the doors open at 7 a.m. He doesn’t like to go to school in his sweats, so he’ll change in the restrooms near the lobby. Maybe into his favorite bib overalls. * * * James is homeless, but he knows he has it better than most. He has an unpaid internship at the Shalom Community Center to help him finish his degree. He may not have a house, but he does have a place to sleep. He can pack food in his truck and leave it locked, so he can carry more gear with him. He bought the 1992 Ford F150 with some cash a friend in California gave him when his other truck broke down. Now his truck is about 400 miles shy of 200,000. It’s maroon and primer gray, with rust scattered throughout, and equipped with what he calls the millennial anti-theft device – stick shift. According to national studies, James is one of more than a million American community college students who are homeless. The Wisconsin HOPE Lab, a university lab working to find ways to make college more affordable, has surveyed community colleges around the country and estimates up to 14 percent of their students have no home. “This study contributes to a growing body of evidence suggesting that basic needs insecurity is now a serious challenge in American higher education, and particularly in the nation’s community colleges,” the study reads. “Neither financial aid nor employment is a sufficient buffer to prevent students from going hungry or even homeless.” James, 37, has not had a stable roof over his head since he lost his factory job in December 2010. That was the motivation he needed to decide to get his GED before moving on to college. He has played tug-of-war with the cost of school and the cost of housing ever since. School will always win. In his mind, it has to. James has lived in poverty his entire life. His family moved six times between kindergarten and high school, rotating through shelters, trailer parks and relatives’
homes. His dad taught him how to fix everything, and his mom taught him how to love books. His favorite book was “Where the Red Fern Grows.” Billy, the novel’s main character, was a shit-talking 10-yearold, so James related to him. He was way ahead of his peers in school because of his advanced reading habits. He never felt challenged by his coursework, often repeating material as he moved schools. He loved tests, though. They were fun, and he completed them with ease. He frustrated his teachers by not doing the homework he felt was irrelevant to his education. He ultimately dropped out of Mooresville High School his senior year because he had less than half of the credits he needed to graduate. He chose paid labor over doing his homework. He worked at a Foamcraft later on for four years, where he learned every job except two managerial positions. When he lost his job, he was living in a trailer park. He tried doing odd jobs but ultimately couldn’t afford rent and sold his trailer. Sleeping in his truck became his new normal. His experience working long, monotonous hours at the factory inspired him to get his GED. He scored in the top 5 percent on the test, he says, and decided to continue his education at Ivy Tech. He graduated with his general education associate degree and will receive his human services associate degree in May.
“I go against the tide. I never really wanted to be a sheeple.” James Mynatt
James values knowledge and education and fears ignorance. He spends hours each week watching academics give talks on anything that catches his eye. Oh, the polar bears are dying? Let’s look into that. Core samples? Embryology? Whole spectrums of topics are available to him on YouTube. “I try to know a little bit about damn near everything because I feel like it makes me a more rounded person,” James says. “One of my most
hated questions is, ‘What do I need to know that for?’ So you’re not ignorant, motherfucker. That’s why you need to know that.” * * * He’s slept in Walmart parking lots, Kmart parking lots and sometimes Menards when they turn their lights off at night. Now, though, he prefers parking his truck on the dead-end street. It’s secluded and has no streetlights around. “Nobody comes back here,” James says. “Nobody fucks with anything. Nobody fucks with me.” Cops have woken him up a few times in this same spot, though. He hands them his ID before they get a chance to ask for it. He said he knows how the game is played. It’s legal for him to park on a public road, but people ask why he doesn’t just park at Walmart. “Have you ever slept in a Walmart parking lot?” James asks. “You should try it one day. No, seriously, you should try it one day. It’s not a pleasant experience because it’s so bright, and you’re sitting there trying to sleep and there’s fucking street lights when you open your eyes no matter which way you turn.” So he sticks with his spot. * * * James is proud of his outgoing and spontaneous personality. Last semester, a professor was talking about health and nutrition in his human development class. She told her students they need to eat closer to the tree. About a week later James took the time to fry some squirrel he killed on his buddy’s land along the White River with his single-shot 20-gauge shotgun. He placed his small frying pan on his Sterno single-burner folding stove and cooked outside in the school parking lot. “Hey, I got a bunch of fried squirrel today I’m going to bring to class,” he said to his professor. “You said a couple weeks ago that we need to eat closer to the tree. Well, squirrels live in trees.” “I’m going to tell my kids that joke,” his professor laughed. “I’m not jokin,’” James said as he pulled out his Tupperware container filled with fried squirrel for the class. James usually wears jeans,
a T-shirt and his camouflage hat. Two of his front teeth are missing from years of not being able to afford a dentist, and his thick beard is starting to gray. He says he does things just a little bit differently than some of the students he goes to school with. He’ll tip his hat to women in the hallway. James says they have no idea how to respond. He was raised in the old way, he says, pre-internet. They barely had Atari back then. “I go against the tide,” James says. “I never really wanted to be a sheeple.” Whenever he meets people and they say something like, "Oh, it’s so nice to meet you," he’ll respond, "Yes, it really is. It really is nice to meet me." A stranger, in his opinion, is just a friend he hasn’t met yet. Everyone has potential. * * * On a Monday afternoon in January, James is sitting in the Ivy Tech commons with his girlfriend of about a year, Erin Craig, and some other friends. They have a couple of couches off to the side where they usually congregate. “I talk to so many people, they just kind of assume that I know everybody,” James says. “These my peoples.” “When we first started dating, it was a joke that every second person that came around that corner, he knew,” Erin says. “I swear it was every second person. We literally got here five minutes ago, and there were two people here. Now all these people start coming out of the walls.” Erin has bright blue hair and sits next to James comfortably, occasionally grabbing his hand to hold. “It’s like there’s a little announcement: James is two minutes away from campus, everyone get ready,” someone near them says. James is a magnet for people who may not otherwise have a group to hang out with in the commons. It’s one of his personal goals to make sure everyone in the room feels they can have a conversation with him. It takes him so long to walk from one side of the room to the other because so many people will talk to him. He’ll go to the library grab to something quick and emerge over an hour later because he gets into an interesting conversation.
“You know how guys don’t talk to each other in the bathroom?” Erin asks. “He gets stuck talking to guys in the bathroom, that’s how much he talks to people.” James suddenly stands up, leaves and emerges a few minutes later with three boxes of Thin Mints. He hands them to his female friends sitting close by and they gush. “Don’t cry over Girl Scout cookies. I do this for Valentine’s Day almost every year,” James says as he passes the boxes out. “I get a bunch of the girls Girl Scout cookies.” “Isn’t Valentine's next month?” a passerby asks. “Yeah, but hey, it’s never too early to give a girl chocolate, OK,” James says. “Never.”
Whenever he meets people and they say something like, “Oh, it’s so nice to meet you,” he’ll respond, “Yes, it really is. It really is nice to meet me.” “He makes a lot of my female friends jealous because he’s got a lot of good oneliners like that,” Erin beams at his thoughtfulness, one of the constants in their relationship. She is 20 and confident James won’t live in his truck forever. They could maybe get a tiny house together in a few years. Sometimes Erin goes to the spot James parks his truck with him. They walk around the grassy areas surrounding it. She thinks a garden and a play set would look nice on either side of the space he parks his truck. She pictures a development of small houses sprouting up and a future together outside the truck. Erin met James her first day at Ivy Tech. She sat at a table in the commons with some friends from high school. They were the new kids, just trying to find their place. James sensed their discomfort and walked up to them, offering up the package of cookies he was working his way through. No, thank you, she said. You’re always told to not take food from strangers, especially not already-opened packages. He left the cookies on the table and walked away.
To this day James doesn’t remember the interaction, but it stood out to Erin in detail. Two months went by when Erin overheard James’ familiar voice in the commons. “What do you mean EvilBible.com is blocked? It’s a religious resource, and my friend is sitting next to me watching porn!” His booming voice meant business. He got off the phone and sat down, pissed the conversation was a dead end. Erin walked over, and asked if she could join him. They sat and talked for hours until Erin’s ride picked her up. It wasn’t until later in their relationship James learned it was her mom who walked over to the pair to pick up Erin. When she saw her daughter talking to James, she waited in the car. The couple’s future is unclear, but he hopes they last. They talk about marriage and if they want kids, but more pressing on his mind is finishing his degree. He chose not to take on a part-time job to devote more time to his internship the the Shalom Center. Odd jobs on the weekends will have to supplement his loans for school. He hopes his degree puts him on a path to making it. Making it is not having to worry about spending $20 on oil when he needs to change it. Making it is having a small house on a big property with plenty of room for squirrel hunting. Making it is using his degree to help homeless people like him coordinate work and places to live so they can make it, too. * * * James rearranges everything in the front seat of his truck to get ready to go to sleep. It’s raining, so he makes sure his plastic totes with clean clothes are secured in the back. He throws his backpack on the driver’s floorboard, puts his pillow on the passenger side and grabs his extra wool blanket. If he were just a little shorter, he’d be able to lay down in the cab more comfortably. For now, he lays his head on the passenger seat. In May, he’ll graduate and find a job advocating for other homeless people. Sleeping in the truck is only temporary.

Sen. Todd Young, R-Indiana, speaks to the America's Role in the World conference audience Thursday in the Global and International Studies building. Young gave the opening remarks prior to a panel on Global Food Security moderated by IU political science professor Christine Barbour.
Scholars stress unity at home Lugar and Hamilton, the conference’s co-conveners, are both known for working across party lines during their tenures as respective chairs of the Senate Foreign Relations and House Foreign Affairs committees. In a Wednesday session moderated by IU alumna and Fox News analyst, Marie Harf, Lugar and Hamilton noted the importance of ongoing communication between Congress and the executive branch as partisan tensions increase. Lee Feinstein, the dean of SGIS and the former U.S. ambassador to Poland, said in an interview, the legislators' bipartisan leadership sets a valuable example of how politicians can work with people of different points of view to produce good decisions.

A recurring question raised at the third annual America’s Role in the World Conference was one which two retired Congressmen, Sen. Richard Lugar and Rep. Lee Hamilton, said they were frequently asked by presidents in the Oval Office. What do we do now? Top international relations thinkers and actors gathered at the IU School of Global and International Studies on Wednesday and Thursday to address the importance of American leadership, international diplomacy and individual actions for United States national security and foreign policy. Samantha Power, U.S. permanent representative to the United Nations from 2013 to 2017, gave the keynote address. “When the U.S. doesn’t lead, bad things are likely to happen,” Power said. Under the theme "Foreign Policy Begins at Home," the conference convened esteemed activists, government officials, academics and journalists to discuss the decline of democracy, global refugee policy, the rise of Asian powers, Russia’s influence and Indiana’s role in global events.
“When the U.S. doesn’t lead, bad things are likely to happen.” Samantha Power, former U.S.representative to the United Nations
“For our students, there’s almost no direct experience of that given the recent experience of our country,” Feinstein said. “Where issues of all kinds, including global issues, are

so polarized.” Both Lugar and Hamilton asserted their pride in America’s history of global leadership. “The better we do at home, the stronger our foreign policy will be,” Hamilton said. This concept, reflecting the theme of the conference, was underscored by other panelists. Celeste Wallander, President and CEO of the U.S.Russia Foundation, said evaluating other countries' national interests can help understand the aims of U.S. adversaries, including Russia. Meanwhile, Wallander said, the U.S. must assess its own national interests before engaging in diplomacy. Wallander said U.S. and Russian national interests are incompatible. IU senior Lucy Brown said she was glad the conference included a session on Russia because she, along with many Americans, feels unsettled by Russian involvement in the U.S. In a time when relations between the U.S. and Russia are as bad as they’ve been since the Cold War, James Collins, former U.S. ambassador to the Russian Federation, said domestic unity is crucial. Domestic unification was one of three points
emphasized in Power’s keynote address. Her talk, sprinkled with personal anecdotes from her tenure in President Obama's administration, also focused on the role of U.S. leadership in promoting international cooperation, and the use of diplomacy. "One of the greatest threats to our national security is our domestic division," Power said. After her speech, about 30 SGIS students joined Power and Matthew Barzun, U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom from 2013 to 2017, for an informal luncheon. As a well-known advocate of humanitarian intervention, Power said she was often questioned on the Obama’s administration’s decision to not intervene in Syria. She said she would come back from meetings on Syrian policy that did not align with her personal morals and gather other officials to brainstorm smaller scale options of effecting change in Syria. Power said individual citizens should recognize their ability to influence foreign policy through local elections, grassroots cooperation and foreign service. “There’s always something we can do,” Power said.
INDIANAPOLIS — A 1-year-old girl sleeping on a couch was killed Thursday when a social media feud erupted into a drive-by shooting, police said. The toddler, Malaysia Robson, was rushed to Riley Hospital for Children in critical condition but died shortly afterward. The shooting outraged city leaders and community activists who have been working to stem the city’s gun deaths. “We are confronted here with the worst form of such gun violence,” Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett said at a press conference Thursday. “An innocent child was robbed of her dreams and a city was robbed of its future.” Bryan Roach, chief of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department, said detectives were pursuing multiple leads. One sergeant urged the shooter — or anyone who could identify them — to come forward. “Somebody targeted this home,” Sgt. Chris Wilburn said. “You know who did that, and that’s who I’m talking to. And I’m asking you, very candidly, do what’s right.” On Friday, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives offered a $5,000 reward to any person with information that leads to an arrest. Late Thursday afternoon, Robin Robson, Malaysia’s grandmother, spoke at a rain-soaked prayer vigil, her voice wavering and breaking into sobs. “She was only 1 year old,” Robson said. “She died a senseless death.” Angry residents held up signs protesting the gun violence at the vigil. One of the signs declared “Enough is enough,” echoing the same motto chanted by Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School students who survived last month’s massacre at the school and have been advocating for gun control ever since. Last weekend, as other mass protests broke out across the country, hundreds of students rallied at the Indiana Statehouse in downtown Indianapolis calling for new gun laws to fight the tide of violence.

Rev. Charles Ellis, a community organizer in Indianapolis, said school shootings like the one in Parkland drew a great deal of attention. But he pointed out more kids, like Malaysia, are killed everyday in city streets. “While suffering is suffering if you just go by pure numbers, we lose even more on the street,” he told the Indiana Daily Student. On Friday, police wouldn’t comment further on the shooting. It’s still unknown what the nature of the social media dispute was that led to the drive-by shooting. It’s also unknown who inside the house was being targeted. The shooting occurred just before 2 a.m. Thursday, police said, when a car stopped in front of the home in 3500 block of North Wittfield Street in east Indianapolis. Someone got out of the car and opened fire on the white one-story house. Malaysia was one of nine people inside. Ana Fox, 19, was shot in the shoulder but was taken to the hospital and was in good condition. Stop the Violence Indianapolis founder Anthony Beverly, told the IDS that because the dispute took place over social media, police must have an idea of who some of the suspects might be. Stop the Violence Indianapolis works for social change through prevention and intervention. “Nine people in the house yesterday, you can’t tell me somebody didn’t know that this thing was about to go down,” Beverly said. “Someone should have taken action to prevent it.” These killings are all too common, said Ellis who works with the Ten Point Coalition, another anti-violence group in Indianapolis. “We see this tragedy over and over again,” Ellis said. On Friday, the house on Wittfield Street was quiet. Some of the windows shattered by bullets were boarded up. In the front yard, around the base of a tree, someone had placed a collection of stuffed animals. A few houses down the street, two young girls chased each other around their front yard.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
FUAD PONJEVIC | IDS
Performers stand during the First Nations Traditional Powwow on April 9, 2017, in Dunn Meadow. The IU seventh annual Traditional Powwow will take place Saturday, April 7, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. in Dunn Meadow.
Celebrate Native American culture with OVPDEMA As the calendar approaches the conclusion of the academic year, one of IU Bloomington’s most cherished campus traditions is also on the horizon. The IU seventh annual Traditional Powwow will be Saturday, April 7, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. in Dunn Meadow. Attendees will have an opportunity to experience aspects of traditional and contemporary Native American cultures through an event that brings together the IU, local and Na-
tive American communities. The powwow, which is organized by IU Bloomington’s First Nations Educational and Cultural Center, an Office of the Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Multicultural Affairs (OVPDEMA) program, will feature two dance sessions, from 1 to 5 p.m. and 7 to 10 p.m. After the grand entry for each session — when tribal color guards bearing flags and eagle staffs of some of the tribes that are present,
dignitaries, tribal royalty and dance participants enter the arena — there will be dance sessions and intertribal dancing. Some of the other highlights of the powwow include: From 11 a.m. to 12 p.m., a raptor show will be conducted by the Indiana Raptor Center. During this program, background on the birds, their uses and meanings in contemporary Native American culture will be explained. From 5 to 7 p.m., there will
be dance exhibitions by visiting powwow participants and Paso a Paso, an IU Latino student dance organizations. There will be food, informational, and arts and crafts vendors. This includes educational activities in the activities tent, an Indian taco stand, and a representative from the Indiana Department of Natural Resources who will discuss Native American people being represented in state parks. A pre-powwow lecture by Oglala Lakota College’s Dr.
Richie Meyers — a member of IU’s First Nations Leadership Ambassador Council and the Oglala Sioux’s representative for IU’s Office of Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act — titled, “Performing Native Identity: Indians in Social Media,” from 5 to 6 p.m. Friday, April 6, in the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology. As you can see, there are plenty of incredible activities happening at the powwow — at no cost to the IU community or gen-
eral public — that will make spending part of your day at Dunn Meadow an enjoyable and educational experience. I invite you to learn more about the IU seventh annual Traditional Powwow by visiting OVPDEMA’s website, diversity.iu.edu, for more information.

The latest nationwide protest was the March for Our Lives, led by the survivors of the shooting in Parkland, Florida as well as other activists around the country. Spurring from this, as well as the rise of gun rights activism since the Parkland shooting, there has been criticism of the teenagers who are involved in activism. These teenagers are facing harsh criticism because they have been elevated to a stage of idolization and celebrity status. While we applaud celebrities who rise to the occasion and take part in these marches, celebrities are exposed to unfair criticisms more frequently and are used to it. I believe we shouldn’t raise these teenagers to the level of celebrity because they are going to be continually subjected to the same treatment we give other members of the spotlight. These kids are trying to change gun laws so that other teenagers don’t have to lose their classmates or possibly their own lives. Fake stories circulated ranging from the idea the shooting was staged to the teenagers were crisis actors to a fake video of Parkland student Emma Gonzalez ripping the Constitution to shreds. The first claim in-
volved digging into the past of David Hoggs, one of the survivors, to say that he was a crisis actor and couldn’t remember his lines in the interviews after the shooting. The latter fake story came from someone photoshopping the constitution over a target in a video where Emma and other survivors rip the target. To make the situation more upsetting and uncomfortable, Colin Noir from NRATV went so far as to say “no one would know your names” if the shooting never happened. While this may be true, it’s insinuating that the students are capitalizing off of their “fame.” Comments like this, as well as the spread of fake stories, are why I wish society wouldn’t give celebrity status to activists, especially since they are still children. These teenagers are verified on Twitter, which may promote their message, but verification typically goes hand in hand with some sort of spotlight in media. I commend these activists for what they’ve done to change the way the nation looks at gun rights. They are extremely brave to make sure their voices are heard while still being students. I just wish that at the end of the day, the rest of the nation could remember that they are teenagers first, activists second. mmgarbac@iu.edu
If you are seeking health care, you deserve to receive the most accurate information possible. Using this lens, the Editorial Board sides with Xavier Becerra, attorney general of California in the court case NIFLA v. Becerra. Oral arguments began on March 20. This controversy stems from California’s Reproductive Freedom, Accountability, Comprehensive Care, and Transparency Act, which passed in 2015. This law requires any licensed facility to have a notice which states, "California has public programs that provide immediate free or low-cost access to comprehensive family planning services, prenatal care and abortion, for eligible women.” In section one of the Reproductive FACT Act, California lawmakers wrote that many pregnant women in California are unaware of their options and services provided by the state. In order to solve this problem, medical centers are required under the Reproductive FACT Act to provide information about these services in addition to disclosing if these centers are certified by the state. In response to this law, the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates and other crisis pregnancy centers sued the state. The NIFLA is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to create and support pro-life pregnancy centers.
The Alliance Defending Freedom, which is challenging this law on the behalf of NIFLA, believes this law forces pregnancy centers to promote abortion. By forcing crisis pregnancy centers to display information on abortion, NIFLA argues the “nonprofit pro-life medical clinics as well as their staff and volunteers are being forced to violate their consciences,” thus violating their first amendment rights.

“If a woman is seeking health care, she deserves to have accurate information.” While the Editorial Board understands abortion is a controversial topic, we believe pregnant women should be presented with all of their options when seeking medical care. This includes information about adoption and prenatal care, but should also address abortion. This information is important. It gives pregnant women the option to decide where to seek care, and crisis pregnancy centers do not always provide this information. Crisis pregnancy centers are pro-life community cen-
ters that act as pregnancy resource centers. This is an admirable goal. However, these centers can provide incorrect information, which can skew a woman’s decision whether or not to have her child. Crisis pregnancy centers generally only provide women with two options, parenting or adoption. Abortion is typically not mentioned, and if the choice is presented, many crisis pregnancy centers present misleading information about the procedure. In a study published in 2014 in Contraception, an international reproductive journal, 203 of 254 crisis pregnancy centers websites had an incorrect or misleading piece of information on their website, including that there is a connection between abortion and mental health risks. If a woman is seeking
health care, she deserves to have accurate information. Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health, a journal focusing on sexual and reproductive health, found abortions do not present any specific risks to a woman's mental health. Abortion will continue to be debated in the United States. However, information about health care should not be. Pregnancy is a major life event. It leads to major changes in a woman’s body and health, and women deserve to know all the information before they make a decision. The Reproductive FACT Act seems to address this problem. By requiring centers provide informations about available resources as well as details about the center's certification, California is working to ensure women are aware of all options.
IT REALLY BE LIKE THAT SOMETIMES
Black Lives Matter needs support Anne Anderson is a junior in international studies.
The politics of protest have been a part of American history since the birth of the United States. Since before the Boston Tea Party, protests have been used to create change in the U.S. Today is no different. In light of the shooting that took place last month in Parkland, Florida, protest has once again gained momentum at a national level. The March for Our Lives protest in Washington, D.C. drew thousands of American citizens, including students from IU, in an attempt to change current gun laws.
Outside of D.C., there were organized school walkouts in multiple states to protest the gun violence in America today. This all stemmed from the efforts of the Parkland survivors. The March for Our Lives movement has been met with an outpouring of support and involvement from virtually every demographic in the nation, extending to celebrities. The energy for this movement is incredible and much needed. However, the support for protesting needs to extend further than gun control. Last week, Stephon Clark was shot multiple times by police officers responding
to a call about breaking and entering in Sacramento, California. Michael Brown died in 2014. Alton Sterling was shot in 2016 and Clark in 2018. These are three names out of the hundreds of people of all races killed in police shootings since 2016. Following the death of Brown, the Black Lives Matter movement gained momentum and started protests around the country. Yet it was not met the same support that the March for Our Lives movement was. A Harvard Harris poll found that 57 percent of voters have an unfavorable view of Black Lives Matter.
It is troubling that the protests for gun control gain support, yet when black men are killed by police gun violence, the conversation dims. Where was Erica Garner’s Time cover when she led and organized national protests after the death of her father? When Marilyn Mosby, Maryland's state attorney, tried to prosecute the officers involved in the death of Freddie Gray’s, why was she not met with contributions and praise from the same celebrities encouraging March for Our Lives? When the Black Lives Matter movement went viral, it was met with doubt and criticism. Moreover, it was
met with blatant racism and hatred fueled by social media. When the Black Lives Matter movement organized protests, people said the issue was not a racial issue and that the movement created divisions in society. The Department of Justice has released investigative reports about the police departments in Newark, New Jersey, Ferguson, Missouri, Chicago, and Baltimore. These reports all determined that the these police departments have policies that disproportionately affect minorities. But that is not enough evidence for Selena Gomez to issue a statement like she did
for March for Our Lives. If you want to talk about gun control, let’s start with the fact that some members in police forces across the country disproportionately use force against people of color. When you make the time in your schedule to attend the latest March for Our Lives protest, pencil in the time for Black Lives Matter protests, too. The intensity of participation for protest needs to be matched in every instance of wrongdoings by our government – not just when white kids take a stand. anneande@iu.edu

Bloomington to purchase controversial armored truck By Caroline Anders anders6@iu.edu | @clineands
After seven weeks of protest, Bloomington Mayor John Hamilton announced the city will follow through with its armored truck purchase. Vauhxx Booker, organizer of many Black Lives Matter Bloomington events protesting the Lenco BearCat G2, said the mayor’s announcement was expected. “I would have been flabbergasted by any other decision,” he said. The mayor’s 14-page announcement included a few changes to the initial plan for the truck. At first, Hamilton said the truck would have nine gun ports, but now it will have four. The truck was proposed as dark blue, but now it will be light gray with the word

“RESCUE” displayed alongside the Bloomington Police Department logo. Its controversial battering ram attachment will be stored separately. Hamilton’s Thursday press release noted the controversy over the purchase of the truck and the legacy of misuse of armored vehicles in other cities nationwide. It explained how the mayor came to his decision after five public comment sessions, numerous informal meetings, talks with experts and a review of more than 500 online comments. Bloomington Police Department Chief Mike Diekhoff initially made the announcement at a press conference in early February. According to the release, the planned purchase began without the transparency the city strives to demonstrate. Booker said this apology
is not enough. He said Black Lives Matter will continue to protest the truck. “Let me make this very clear,” Booker said Thursday, “I do not intend for us to get this truck today any more than I did seven weeks ago.” He said the group plans to occupy every city council event going forward. Hamilton’s comments focused on how the city needs to protect its officers to the best of its ability if it is going to have a Critical Incident Response Team. He said the truck is the best way to do so. CIRT is the team Bloomington sends out to high-risk situations, such as those involving active shooters. The release explained the city has the capacity to disband the team, eliminating the issue of the truck’s purchase, but Hamilton’s statement said he did not think this would be a good idea.
Morris Rosman, the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation’s executive director came to IU last year and discussed honoring Fitzgerald with a small exhibit, a lecture and more. Eventually, the celebration grew to include the film screening and live performance. Richardson said every care was taken in mounting
the two beaded Don Loper dresses and the black dress which may inspired Fitzgerald’s early hit, “A-Tisket, ATasket.” “It’s actually a pretty complex and painstaking process,” Richardson said in an email. “It’s very important that these unique pieces are not damaged by the fitting process or by bring on exhibition.”
until formal charges are finalized. After formal charges the Board Robert Sears of Public Safety will arrange a special session where they will review the charges, according to the press release. If warranted, Sears will be placed on administrative leave. Moore said in
the press release he will recommend Sears be placed on administrative leave without pay. “The alleged behavior of this individual who works at the Bloomington Fire Department is not representative of our Department’s values nor overall membership,” Moore said in the release. “Our top priority is to always ensure excellent professional service to the public who place their trust in us.”

Shifting gears From Individual Time Trials to Miss N Out, riders continue the Little 500 Spring Series By TC Malik tcmalik@iu.edu | @TCMalik96
Every single event leading up to Little 500 has been plagued with overcast skies and rain, and Miss N Out was no different. Qualifications, Individual Time Trials and Miss N Out saw rain, hail and snow all within the three events. The weather leading up to Little 500 has been so poor, it wouldn't be a surprise if the big race followed the trend. With the weather being gloomy, performances of the riders are also expected to be at a lower level, but that hasn’t been the case with the Spring Series. ITTs on Wednesday night saw record-breaking runs that previously stood for almost 10 years. While Miss N Out didn’t see any broken records, the wind definitely played a factor in the times and track. Riders were excited about the windless night at ITTs, but it was the exact opposite Saturday afternoon. The wind and weather af-

fected Sigma Chi rider Sam Beck’s equipment. “My bike was a little bit messed up,” Beck said. “The wheel wouldn’t turn with the hub so it wasn’t able to spin as quickly.”
That wind factor didn’t seem to affect the top six riders in the finals. Ultimately, Charlie Hicks of Sigma Phi Epsilon took home the win after advancing three rounds to make the finals.
Hicks was joined in the finals by his teammate and fraternity brother, Tom Settle, who finished in fourth place. Coming up just behind Hicks in second was Noble Guyon of Cutters and Gray Goat’s Samuel Stratton, who rounded out the top three. Joseph Krahulik of Sigma Alpha Epsilon placed fifth and Xavier Martinez represented the Black Key Bulls in sixth. On the women’s side, Rachel Brown of Kappa Alpha Theta continued her historic Spring Series with a first-place finish in Miss N Out. Wednesday night, Brown broke Kristi Hewitt’s record time of 2:34.00 from 2009 with a time of 2:33.637. However, Brown’s performance only stood for a few minutes before Brooke Hannon of Melanzana set a new best time. Hannon also made it to the finals of Miss N Out and placed third out of six. Following just behind Brown was Delta Gamma’s Hanna Cop-

pens in second, third went to Hannon, fourth was claimed by Caitlin Kamplain from Theta Phi Alpha, Ivy Moore of Ski finished fifth and Katie Niesen from Teter placed sixth. One of the riders to miss out on the finals was Daniella Pierini of Sigma Kappa, who qualified for the quarterfinals but failed to make it any further. All of the riders will have another chance to improve their place in Spring Series next weekend at Team Pursuit Saturday afternoon. It will be the last event in Spring Series as the teams will all rest up before Little 500.
How Miss N Out works Stage one Each lap, the last rider to cross the finish line is eliminated.
Stage two Competition continues until there are three riders left. Only two riders advance for the next rounds, but three advance from the semifinals.
Stage three In the championship heat, the last three riders race for one lap. The rider whose tire crosses the finish line first is the winner.

Hoosiers sweep the Spartans By Phillip Steinmetz psteinme@iu.edu | @PhillipHoosier
For the second weekend in a row, IU softball brought out the brooms. Thanks largely in part to an impressive defensive performance, IU swept Michigan State on the road to capture a 6-0 start in Big Ten play. It’s the best start for the Hoosiers since 1994 when the team began 9-0 in the conference. “Our defense played huge all weekend,” IU Coach Shonda Stanton said. “I felt like we made a lot of plays, we got some big pitches and big moments. All around, I was impressed with our team and how we competed.” Despite being out-hit in both games Friday, IU did just enough to sweep the doubleheader due to great defensive plays down the stretch. In the first game, IU only allowed two Spartan runs, despite giving up nine hits. Yet the Hoosiers found big hits when it needed them. In the top of the first, IU
got on the board after freshman catcher Maddie Westmoreland singled to center field and senior outfielder Rebecca Blitz turned on the jets, flipping over the catcher to touch home plate. Michigan State took the lead in the bottom of the fourth after a home run and double brought in two runs. IU responded in the very next frame after sophomore outfielder Gabbi Jenkins sent a triple to left field to tie up the game. Then, Westmoreland had her second RBI of the game after hitting a single to left field to give IU a lead that would end up being just enough. “In general, the pitchers did an awesome job finishing games and just combining for a team effort,” Jenkins said. “On top of that, we were able to get some runs when we needed to.” In the final game of the doubleheader, IU saw the same result. A home run in the bottom of the first opened the game
3-0 strong for Michigan State. In response, the Hoosiers scored all their runs in the top of the fifth. Blitz continued her strong weekend with an RBI single to score the first run. Then, Westmoreland came up big again with a two-RBI single after the Spartans allowed a run due to a throwing error. Those three runs would be just enough to hold off Michigan State at the end after another home run in the bottom of the seventh. IU clinched the series officially after winning both games, 3-2. “I think with every pitch, with every win, you see more confidence built into this team,” Stanton said. “We really believe that regardless of the situation, that we can come out on top. I really like how we’re staying in the moment, one pitch at a time, fighting and competing for each inning.” The Hoosiers saved their

best performance for last in the series-sweeping win. It was a 1-1 tie after the third inning, but the lone hit on the weekend from junior infielder Sarah Galovich proved to be crucial. She sent a two-run home run to right field, giving the Hoosiers a 3-1 lead. Then, sophomore infielder Katie Lacefield doubled to left field in the bottom of the fifth to plate another run. Westmoreland capped off the weekend with another RBI single to officially put the game away. This was the secondstraigh sweep for the Hoosiers. But, it doesn’t get any easier as IU will put the sevengame winning streak on the line against Nebraska at Andy Mohr Field. “We’ve been talking all year about sticking to our process and preparing well,” Stanton said. “We’ll prepare for a really good Nebraska team that’s coming in, and I’m excited about being home again for the weekend matchup.”
IU is halfway through its conference schedule with a 2-4 record after beating Iowa and falling to Nebraska over the weekend. The Hoosiers started off the weekend by beating the Hawkeyes 4-3 on Saturday. IU lost the doubles point, but sophomore Caitlin Bernard, freshmen Michelle McKamey and Olga Zavarotnaya, and senior Xiwei Cai earned singles victories. McKamey picked up her first career conference win, beating senior Montana Crawford, 0-6, 7-5, 6-3. Zavarotnaya won in three sets as well, defeating senior Adrienne Jensen, 6-3, 4-6, 6-1. Cai clinched the match for IU when she beat Adorabol Huckleby, 6-4, 6-7 (5-7), 6-4. IU trailed Iowa 3-1. IU Coach Ramiro Azcui said it was a great comeback for the team and he’s very happy for his players. IU’s win over Iowa was its 14th of the season, already matching last year’s win total. The Hoosiers hosted the Cornhuskers not even 24 hours after finishing up their match with Iowa. IU started the matchup losing a close doubles point to Nebraska. Sophomore Caitlin Bernard and junior Natalie Whalen lost in a tiebreaker, 7-6 (8-6). Junior Madison Appel and freshman Jelly Bozovic also lost in a tiebreaker, 7-6 (7-5). Bernard, Bozovic, Cai, McKamey and Whalen lost in straight sets, and IU lost to Nebraska 6-1. Appel got the Hoosiers their only point of the match, defeating senior Brianna Lashway 6-2, 4-6, 1-0 (10-5).
Azcui said his team made too many mistakes, such as unforced errors, against Nebraska. IU played a three-anda-half-hour match the day before, and Azcui said there was probably some fatigue as a result. IU has not had this quick of a turnaround between matches in conference play this season. Azcui changed the doubles lineup against Minnesota last week, and he stayed with that lineup in both matches this weekend.
“We have not been having that spark. We put ourselves in a position to win the doubles point against Nebraska, and unfortunately we came up short.” Ramiro Azcui, IU Coach
The tandems were Appel and Bozovic, Bernard and Whalen, and McKamey and Zavarotnaya. IU is 1-6 in doubles in conference play, and IU lost the doubles point in both matches this weekend. “We’ve been struggling a little bit here lately in doubles,” Azcui said. “We have not been having that spark. We put ourselves in a position to win the doubles point against Nebraska, and unfortunately we came up short.” Azcui said individually there are different things each player needs to work on, and this week he is focusing on improving those facets in practice. IU is halfway through its six-game home stand, and it will be host to in-state rival Purdue on Saturday.

Bloomington Playwrights Projects presents “Out of Orbit”, which began March 30. The play, by Jennifer Maisel, is the winner of this year’s Woodward/Newman Drama Award.
Play explores final frontier Maura Johnson johnsmau@iu.edu | @maujo997
“Out of Orbit” began this weekend at Bloomington Playwrights Project. The play, by Jennifer Maisel, is the winner of this year’s Woodward/Newman Drama Award. Winning this award allows a play to be performed at Bloomington Playwrights Project. The play follows Sara, a scientist and mother, who is leading a team to put the Spirit and Opportunity rovers on Mars. While working on the project, Sara, though still on Earth, is operating on Mars time, while her daughter, Lis, is still on Earth time. The story follows the disconnection between mother and daughter and the challenges that come with trying to balance personal passions and family. Jennifer Maisel, the writer of the play, began “Out of Orbit” in the early 2000’s, inspired by a 2004 Los Angeles Times article regarding NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory sending the
rovers Spirit and Opportunity to Mars. Maisel worked on the play during the Mars mission, which was originally supposed to last 90 days. Maisel said she faced challenges writing the play without a foreseeable ending to the mission. “The rovers just kept going,” she said. “They kept going, they kept going, they kept going. I’m like ‘I don’t know how to end this play.’” Maisel said there is a theatrical aspect of these astronauts living on Earth but functioning on Mars time. The ability to venture to another planet is a logical step in the American idea of Manifest Destiny, she said. “Out of Orbit” was chosen out of roughly a thousand play submissions to the Bloomington Playwrights Project to win the Woodward/Newman Award, David Sheehan, director of the play, said in an email. Readers and Bloomington Playwrights Project staff members felt it was the best new drama in the country, Sheehan said.
Maisel said a challenging part about writing the play was the need to learn and relearn science. She said she wanted to make the science aspect of the play accessible to audiences. The disconnection between Sara and Lis is a result of living on different schedules and the challenging relationship between a parent and teenager. On a deeper level, Sheehan said for him, the play is about reaching out, both to new frontiers and to each other. “It’s lovely to strive for greatness and to have ambition and pride, but we are none of us spinning in space alone,” he said in an email. “We have to ultimately make sense of things together.” Sheehan said the play is relevant in the way it touches on various social issues. The play deals with the growing role of women in leadership positions in science, and the struggle everyone faces of balancing personal ambitions with supporting a family.
Maisel said it’s impossible to try to parent a child while working on a mission as important as this one, but ultimately, it has to be done. Sara is a single mother with no relief from anyone else, which makes it even more difficult, Maisel said. The audience can connect with what it is to have a passion, and how to keep both your passions and family in your life, Maisel said. Whether or not you’re a Mars geek, you can connect with understanding how to love doing something so much that it becomes a ll-consuming, she said. The play has an element of acceptance in it, Maisel said. This acceptance is the understanding that a child is not their parent and has their own path, just as a parent has their own path and passion. “I think children often forget that their parents are people and want them to solely be parents,” she said. “Parents often don’t know how to let their kids find their own way.”
FASHION COLUMN
All that glitters is not gold Adele Poudrier is a senior in journalism.
Jewelry is personal. Which is one of the reasons I’ve never been able to understand why it’s such a common gift among couples. It doesn’t matter if you’ve unfortunately started dating someone two weeks before their birthday, or if you’ve been together for decades. Jewelry has always been a go-to gift. However, this is a rookie mistake, my friends. It really isn’t the present “you can’t go wrong with.” The truth is, jewelry is not an easy gift. If anything, I’d say it might be the hardest if you don’t know the person well enough. You may be wondering, “How can jewelry be all that different from anything else we wear?”
Rings, earrings and necklaces aren’t like T-shirts, dresses or jeans. First, we wear a blouse for 12 hours, throw it in a hamper and pull it out of our closets maybe a few days, weeks or even months later. Jewelry, on the other hand, has a more direct feeling we encounter almost every day. With jewelry, you buy it thinking you’re going to wear it all the time. Countless people have rings, necklaces and earrings they shower in, sleep in and flat out live in. They never take it off. It becomes as familiar to their appearance as the color of their eyes, or the length of their hair. Jewelry is particular because, when the right piece is found, it coincides with your personality and the way you present yourself
on the daily. For many, the little accent holds sentimental meaning and constant reminders of loved ones or special memories. I wear a skinny silver band around the ring finger of my right hand every single day. It’s a friendship ring from my best friend of nine years. In fact, she’s one of the only people I’d trust to receive jewelry from because she knows me so well. That’s exactly why jewelry is such a tough item to gift another person. You’ve got to really know who you’re getting it for. Because when they open that little box, they are either going to absolutely love it or totally detest it. It’s a hard truth, but a truth about jewelry. While some may smile and say it’s nice, they might really be
confused and asking, “Did they really think I’d like this?” It becomes a question of, “How well does this person even know me?” It doesn’t make sense if you give someone who is a minimalist and shy a loud statement necklace. If you give someone who rolls their eyes at clichés heart-shaped earrings, they’ll wonder if you’ve been listening to them talk at all. It’s difficult to really grasp, but somehow jewelry manages to speak to a person’s taste, personality and presence all at once. I don’t mean to startle you if you’ve got an anniversary or birthday on the horizon. But certainly a gift out there exists that leans away from bling and into something individualized for the person you’re trying to impress.

Buck Meek, guitarist from the band Big Thief, will play songs from his solo project at 8 p.m. Monday at the Bishop. Meek will open for singersongwriter Margaret Glaspy. Meek will share tunes from Meek’s self-titled debut album, which will be released on May 18. He will also play the song “Sam Bridges,” which was featured on his first two solo albums — “Live from a Volcano” released on Bandcamp in 2013 and “Heart was Beat” released in 2015 on Bandcamp. In addition to the songs mentioned above, songs from Meek’s album set to come out after the self-titled debut will also be shared. Meek is on tour in Southern and Midwestern states such as Arizona and Illinois. Meek recorded the selftitled album with a band he’s been working with for the last few years in New York City. “They are some of my favorite players in the world,” Meek said. Meek’s friend Matt Davidson, from the song project Twain, plays bass in the band. “He is actually one of my favorite artists,” Meek said. Meek said Adam Brisbin plays guitar in the band and is probably his favorite guitar player. Austin Vaughn plays the drums, Adrianne Lenker of Big Thief sings backup vocals on the to-be-released album, and Meek’s brother, Dylan Meek, plays the piano on the song “Cannonball!”. Meek grew up in Wimberley, Texas, a small town 45 minutes southwest of Austin. Meek’s father, Bill Meek, is a glass sculptor who had an art studio in Wimberley. “I was surrounded by artists and musicians as a kid who I looked up to,” he said. Meek said Wimberley is a really special town in Texas. “A lot of people from the Austin music scene have moved out to Wimberley over the years,” Meek said. Members from the country bands The Flatlanders and Bob Wills’ band have homes in Wimberley. Meek also said lots of bluegrass, blues and manouche jazz players live in Wimberley. Meek started playing manouche jazz, the music of Belgian-born jazz guitarist and composer Django Reinhardt, in high school. A guitarist in Wimberley named Django Porter took Buck under his wing and taught him about this type of music Meek said.
“I got deep into manouche jazz and through that my interest opened into swing and New Orleans jazz and that’s what led me to apply to Berklee to continue my studies in jazz,” Meek said. Meek went to the Berklee College of Music to study guitar where his favorite professor was David Tronzo, Meek said. Tronzo teaches a slide guitar lab at Berklee in which Meek learned basic slide guitar skills and various techniques for modern jazz and modern classical music Tronzo said. “I recall that Andrew was a very enthusiastic and hardworking student,” Tronzo said. After Berklee, Meek moved to New York City where, in 2012, he formed the band Big Thief with Adrianne Lenker, the lead singer and songwriter. “We really developed our relationship through music,” Meek said. “We sat together and played guitar on the stoop outside our apartments in Brooklyn and learned songs and it evolved into duo.” Meek said the two started booking tours as the duo Adrianne Lenker and Buck Meek. They sang both of their material. Meek said he sang his songs while Lenker backed him up on guitar and vice versa. Meek said in 2014 the duo decided to split their projects because they seemed to be going in different directions. “Adrianne was starting to write heavier music with electric guitar and so we split our projects,”Meek said. Lenker’s project was Big Thief. Meek said he continued to play guitar for Big Thief and put his own band together. Meek said he plays music is music as a form of reflection that allows him to process abstract emotions until he puts them into the form of music. “There is a catharsis of being able to express the emotions experienced in this existence and learn from it,” Meek said. Meek’s expressive style of playing guitar is a way to move energy, he said. Meek said he has to keep himself in check because there was a time he got too wild and kept throwing his neck out. “I would hope that any music that comes out of my instrument is coming from within, and the way I feel is it comes from the source and travels through my body,” Meek said. “It is almost like a synesthesia of feeling the notes.”

Samuel Malangira leads the dancers and the band during a performance by a Ugandan music and dance group called Dance of Hope. The group performed Thursday as part of the Lotus Blossoms free public event series.
Ugandan dancers inspire library audience Kathleen Clark-Perez kathleenclarkperez@gmail.com @KatPerezIN
Instruments such as the embuutu drum and the kora, a 21 string harp-lute, were strewn across the stage of the Monroe County Public Library before the Dance of Hope performance Thursday. Dance of Hope is a music and dance group comprised of Ugandan children, most of whom live in the M-LISADA orphanage in Kampala, Uganda. They visited Bloomington as part of their first U.S. tour. In the atrium of the library auditorium, DOH sold brightly colored beaded necklaces, leather sandals and hand drums. Members of DOH made the items. The proceeds of the sales will fund the construction of a new children’s
center back in Kampala, Uganda. Seating quickly filled. Audience members who did not arrive early stood on the stairs and in the aisles of the MCPL auditorium. Young children joined their parents and grandparents in the crowd. Sunni Fass, executive director of the Bloomington Lotus Education and Arts Foundation, took the stage to thank the many donors that made the Lotus Blossoms Educational Outreach Program performance possible and free. Fass described the Bloomington families who had housed the children from DOH during their stay in Bloomington. “The host families and children have made incredible friendships that will last a lifetime,” Fass said.
First to join the stage was a young woman dressed in a multi-colored grass skirt layered atop another bright red skirt. The 15-year-old introduced herself as Sylvia. She told the audience the M-LISADA orphanage is where DOH was born. “Music has brought us together and made us a family,” Sylvia said. The show began with Samuel Malangira, lead singer and instrumentalist, dressed in a white linen shirt with green, gold and red embroidered embellishments. He began by plucking a melody on the kora, a 21 string harp-lute, and singing in a deep voice. Soon a young man joined him on stage to play a baseline on the adungu, a string harp native to Northern Uganda.
During the same song, five girls dressed in colorful grass skirts swayed onto the stage. Their sandals and bell anklets provided a percussive element to the song. After their entrance, four boys danced onto the stage wearing golden crowns and leg warmers made from small bead-filled gourds to add another layer to the percussion section. The girls gathered around two microphones to sing along with Malangira and the boys sat down to play drums. The song ended in a flurry of shaking grass skirts, pounding drums and the steady baseline of the adungu. Malangira wrote this song called, “My Child.” It is about a father who has not been able to see his son in many years and is feeling sick and sad
about this separation, Malangira said. The group played a song called, “Thank You,” also written by Malangira. This song included call and response between Malangira and the girls and fast footwork and clapping from the dancers. The audience was clapping along and cheering. For the third song, Malangira and the dancers invited children from the audience to sing and dance on stage. Malangira taught the audience members a simple dance move that included stepping backward and forward. The children smiled and laughed as they jumped and sang into the microphone. For the final song, Malangira conducted and pointed to each section of the group
to signal their part. The group sang, “Fire burning in my soul,” as the adungu player provided a baseline and an enormous smile. The four young boys took center stage with ensassi gourd shakers. They leapt from one foot to the other and spun while rhythmically shaking the gourds. After this song, the group took hands and bowed before a standing ovation. The stage was littered with instruments and the costumes’ hues were every color of the rainbow. Bosco Segawa, founder of the M-LISADA orphanage thanked the audience and the host families from Bloomington. Sylvia also thanked the audience. “Please continue to support us,” Sylvia said. “This dance is for joy.”
