$10.9 million aids Lilly Library Annie Aguiar aguiara@iu.edu | @annabelaguiar
A $10.9 million grant through the IU Foundation from Lilly Endowment Inc. will be used to support renovations to Lilly Library. A growth in collection size as well as increasing demands from scholars and students to use the library’s collections have placed a strain on the building, according to a press release. The grant will fund upgrades to the library’s mechanical systems, equipment, fire safety systems, disability access, navigation systems and space configuration. “Printed materials are among the most commonly surviving artifacts of history and offer transformational, hands-on learning,” said Carolyn Walters, Ruth Lilly Dean of University Libraries, in the release. “The Lilly Library is so much more than a building, and yet, our value is inherently tied to the people and spaces that encourage interaction with our materials.” The library was founded in 1960 to contain the private collection of businessman Josiah K. Lilly Jr., which included more than 20,000 rare books and 17,000 manuscripts. Now, the library contains more than 450,000 rare books, 8.5 million manuscripts and 150,000 sheets of music. The collection also includes one of the 22 Gutenberg Bibles that still exist, the first printed edition of “The Canterbury Tales” as well as personal collections from authors such as Orson Welles and Sylvia Plath. “The Lilly Library is one of our campus treasures,” IU Provost Lauren Robel said in the release. “The renovation will support more scholarly interactions with relevant rare books, personal letters and photographs, among many other historically important objects.” Renovations are expected to begin later this year and will close the library for about 18 months.

‘MASS’ comes to IU Shows to be performed for two upcoming weekends By Lauren Fischer lfische@iu.edu | @lauren-fischer7
A group of children buzz on kazoos as a marching band clad in circus-like outfits stomps around them. This is one of the scenes from the stage production “MASS,” which is coming to the Musical Arts Center at 7:30 p.m. April 5, 6, 12 and 13. The show was composed by Leonard Bernstein, who described it as a theater piece for singers, musicians and dancers. It combines different genres of music, from rock ‘n’ roll to contemporary classical, and asks questions pertaining to faith. “All the different styles of music I think represent different groups of people of all ages and backgrounds questioning what’s going on and somehow returning to a peaceful state, but with a lot of unanswered questions,” conductor Constantine Kitsopoulos said.

Stage director and choreographer Candace Evans said the music as well as the cast of “MASS” is diverse, with 60 people in the chorus, 25 on the main stage, 23 band members, 23 in the children’s choir and four faith leaders. One of the cast members is Aimes Dobbins, who plays one of the street singers. With this role, Dobbins is the first openly transgender, nonbinary person to have a principal role at Jacobs School of Music. “Each street singer is supposed to represent something different about the world, and I think them bringing me in was very important because I feel like I do get to be myself,” Dobbins said. “I get to be a transgender person who is questioning their faith and questioning all things about religion.” Dobbins, a fifth year student in the individualized major program, audi-

Powwow to celebrate Native American culture By Kaitlin Edquist kedquist@iu.edu | @kaitlinedquist
Walk by Dunn Meadow on Saturday and you may hear the melodies of powwow singers or see dancers moving about in Native American dance clothing. A social dancing event, IU’s eighth annual Traditional Powwow will take place 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday in Dunn Meadow. The free daylong powwow, organized by the First Nations Educational and Cultural Center, will highlight Native American culture through music, food and a variety of craft vendors. “The most important aspect of our mission here at the center is to build and foster community,” FNECC Program Assistant Heather Williams said. “And the powwow is very much like a family reunion in that native people gather and laugh and catch up and have fun together. It’s the epitome of community.” The powwow also displays contemporary Native American culture and identity, FNECC Di-

IU Head Coach Jeff Mercer smiled as he exchanged greetings with his former players Wednesday night. Mercer, who coached Wright State University for the past two seasons and played for it from 2007-08, helped build it to one of the most respectable mid-major programs in the nation. Mercer’s former players dominated IU with a 15-4 win Wednesday in Bloomington. “It was good to see a lot of the players,” Mercer said. “Obviously I recruited those players, being there the last five years. Obviously once the game starts, they’re another team to compete against.

Monday Uber abduction a rumor, no threat By Kaitlin Edquist kedquist@iu.edu | @kaitlinedquist

The Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce organized an event April 2 at the Buskirk-Chumley Theatre for the city council candidates to speak on issues and why they should be elected. Topics discussed included the Fourth Street parking garage decision and housing development in Bloomington.
Forum talks transit, housing By Lilly St. Angelo lstangel@iu.edu | @lilly_st_ang
Audience members munched on popcorn Tuesday evening at the BuskirkChumley Theater while the 19 city council candidates took turns speaking about issues such as the Fourth Street parking garage and housing development. The Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce organized the event and former Herald-Times editor Bob Zaltzberg moderated. Because of the number of candidates, they were broken up into two groups, each with an hour to speak. The impending Fourth Street parking garage decision was a prominent topic during the evening. The Chamber has been a vocal supporter of the rebuild of Fourth Street parking garage, a controversial project that will be decided on at tomorrow’s city council meeting. The candidates are roughly evenly divided on the issue. Some said rebuilding the garage is necessary for access to down-
town Bloomington while others said the $18.5 million it would cost to rebuild should be used to better the public transit system. “We need to make cars a luxury, not a necessity,” District 2 candidate Daniel Bingham said. Dorothy Granger, the District 2 incumbent, sees the garage as a current necessity that must be kept for commuters, visitors and residents who live far from the downtown area. “We need to provide service to people who work here, who have dinner here, who want to stay and see a movie,” Granger said. At-large candidates Matt Flaherty and Jean Capler both thought providing more public transportation would be a social equalizer as well as more environmentally sound than rebuilding the garage. Capler pointed out that buses often stop running before city council meetings end Wednesday nights. She said she sees this as a limitation to people who rely on buses to participate in government.
Erin Predmore, president and CEO of the Chamber, asked the audience to attend the meeting tomorrow night to see the decision play out. She also announced that there will be child care provided like last week, again organized by the Chamber. The candidates were also divided on other topics like housing development and how to create more affordable housing. One idea is to allow duplexes and triplexes into established neighborhoods, along with allowing the addition of accessory dwellings, smaller homes available for rent, to existing properties. Many incumbent candidates voiced their concerns over how this may change the character of core neighborhoods. Some new candidates said increased housing density within walking distance of the downtown area is necessary. District 1 incumbent Chris Sturbaum said he did not like the idea of putting duplexes and triplexes in currently single-family neighborhoods.
“It is an assault on single-family housing,” Sturbaum said. Flaherty and at-large candidate Vauhxx Booker, both in their 30s, said their age-group is particularly vulnerable to rising housing prices. They support the cheaper housing prices that come from creating a denser downtown. “Right now, we’re leaving a lot of people behind,” Flaherty said. “If we continue doing what we’re doing, we’re going to lose a lot of people in my demographic.” District 1 candidate Kate Rosenbarger said integrating different kinds of housing would create a less exclusive environment. Capler said she supports accessory dwellings that are on the same property of a house if they are rented out by homeowners. District 4 candidate Miah Michaelsen and District 5 incumbent Isabel Piedmont-Smith agreed the city needs to conduct a housing study. Early voting for city elections begins April 9.
Rosenbarger talks redevelopment By Lilly St. Angelo lstangel@iu.edu | @lilly_st_ang
She has worked for seven campaigns ranging from state-wide to national bids for election. She has a dog who looks like a blond Toto from “The Wizard of Oz” named POTUS. She used to want to work in the White House. Now, Kate Rosenbarger, 36, is running for Bloomington City Council’s District 1 seat. “Change starts in our local community,” Rosenbarger said. “If we don’t have people in that liaison role, nothing will happen.” If elected, Rosenbarger, who is the executive director of TEDxBloomington, said she would focus on engaging with her constituents, fighting for increased public transit, prioritizing climate issues and housing affordability and the redevelopment of the IU Health Bloomington Hospital site. Rosenbarger got her bachelor’s in policy analysis from IU’s School of Public and Environmental Affairs in 2005. She then went on to get a law degree from the Maurer School of Law in 2009. Caroline Dowd-Higgins, who now works for the IUAlumni Association, was the director of career services at the law school when Rosenbarger was going there and has kept in touch with her ever since. She said despite Rosenbarger’s young age, the candidate will be able to represent all ages. “A lot of people might think a young person isn’t prepared,” Dowd-Higgins said. “I think she is prepared.” The hospital site, which will be redeveloped while she is potentially in office, is just a block from where Rosenbarger lives.

A rumor about a possible Uber-related abduction Monday has been cleared as a misunderstanding, according to IUPD Capt. Craig Munroe. A screenshot of a GroupMe message started circulating around noon Monday describing the event. In it, a woman wrote she was almost abducted Monday morning by a man in a red Hyundai she believed to be her Uber driver. The man called her by name, and she got in, she wrote in the message. She also wrote she knew something was wrong when they pulled away from her residence and she saw the correct car that was supposed
to be her Uber. The two men looked at each other and signaled to each other, she wrote. When the driver turned the car the wrong way, she told him he was going in the wrong direction and he ignored her, she wrote. When the driver stopped at a stop sign she unlocked the door, ran away and reported the incident to the police, she wrote. IUPD investigated the situation and found that it was a misunderstanding. The department also posted about the miscommunication on Facebook. Two women with the same name ordered Ubers to the same location, and one of the women entered the wrong vehicle, Munroe said. There was no abduction.
IU students share their best April Fools’ pranks By Alex Hardgrave and Emily Isaacman news@idsnews.com
Junior Nicolette Eckert With two older brothers, Eckert is no stranger to April Fools’ Day shenanigans. When she was around 12, she said her older brothers convinced her there were so many worms outside on the ground that they couldn’t leave their house. The three of them ended up skipping school because they couldn’t get past all the worms. Her mother even got a call from the school asking why they weren’t there. Freshman Star Chiang Chiang’s uncle really likes caramel apples and had bought a pack of them. To mess with him, Chiang dipped an onion in caramel and put it in front of the real candy apples. Her uncle grabbed that one and took a bite of it. He was very upset. She also once took a cupcake and instead of filling it with frosting, she filled it with something her cousin hated — mayonnaise. Freshman Sam Berg When he was in high school, Berg said he and a couple friends flipped all the desks in their classroom upside down. Junior Sydni Johnston Johnston said she put Froot Loops in the toilet
and told her parents she got sick so she didn’t have to go to school. Sophomore Sam Garton One April Fools’ Day, Garton said he taped the sink sprayer so it would spray his sister when she went to turn on the water. But his mother ended up using the sink first. She was mad, and he ended up having to clean up the big mess it made. He said he has never pulled off a successful prank. “I always tried stuff, and it was always horrible,” Garton said. Junior Gavin Verslype Verslype said he told his mom he failed an exam and let her believe it for four hours. “She said she was upset for the rest of the day, basically,” Verslypse said. Senior Kaylen McGrone When she was 12, McGrone put vinegar in the water tap. It lasted 5 minutes. Freshman Hasan Nasar One time during high school, someone put laxatives in Nasar’s school’s water fountain. “I don’t know how,” Nasar said. He said he thinks a couple people drank it. “Those couple people, they were in the bathroom for a while,” Nasar said.

erty in 2018 and is now formulating plans for the land. IU Health’s new Regional Academic Health Center is being built on 45/46. Its proximity to the BLine Trail and the urban core of Bloomington makes it a prime location to create more dense housing within walking distance of shopping and workplaces. “The redevelopment of that is an enormous opportunity for the city to take climate action,” Rosenbarger said. Rosenbarger said she envisions a variety of housing ranging in size and price as well as single and multiplex homes. She said she thinks the city can double or triple density in the area but also create what she called “forever homes,” or places where people will want to stay. Climate change is interlaced with all the issues Rosenbarger cares about, including transportation.
She said she wants Bloomington Transit to have more frequent weekday service and more routes on weekends to make public transit a convenient alternative to driving. While in college, she worked as an intern on congressional candidate Baron Hill’s campaign in 2002 and John Kerry’s presidential campaign in 2004. Her most recent involvement in campaigning was her role as deputy campaign manager and field director of Liz Watson’s run for Congress. Dowd-Higgins said Rosenberger’s experience with canvassing for campaigns has given her good listening and engagement skills. Dowd-Higgins said Rosenbarger’s ability to not only read and understand legislation but also write it is an important aspect that sets Rosenbarger apart from the other candidates as well. “Her training as a lawyer is really important here,”
Dowd-Higgins said. “She’s a really great critical thinker.” Rosenbarger started her position at TEDxBloomington late last year. She said she likes how TED builds community around ideas. She has started bringing in local nonprofits to be present after TED events to engage people more in the community. She said the skills she has learned through TED will serve her well as a council member. “Engaging people is a skill,” Rosenbarger said. “It’s a job of a council person to engage people and be responsive.” Rosenbarger said she would have monthly constituent meetings to hear what people from her district have to say about current issues. She said she is also interested in looking at other communities for inspiration to improve Bloomington just as TEDx shares ideas from all around the world.

Capler talks representation
Three mumps cases found, six now confirmed By Joey Bowling jobowl@iu.edu | @jwbowling08

Jean Capler is running as an at-large candidate for Bloomington City Council. An issue she said she is especially passionate about is how brain injury can lead to poverty. By Lilly St. Angelo lstangel@iu.edu | @lilly_st_ang
Jean Capler said she is focused on “building a Bloomington for all.” If elected, the at-large candidate for Bloomington City Council said she would focus on the overlap between issues that Bloomington’s most vulnerable residents face, as well as the importance of better public transit and housing affordability. The issue she said she is especially passionate about how brain injury can lead to poverty. During her time as a clinical social worker, Capler said she has seen how people who struggle often deal with multiple issues such as substance abuse, mental illness and homelessness. Brain injury can cause or add to those existing problems. “As communities try to grapple with these issues, we have to understand that these issues intertwine,” Capler said. “There’s a lot of overlap.” Capler works for the Rehabilitation Hospital of Indiana and travels around the state educating health
professionals, counselors, police officers and domestic violence organizations about the effects of brain injuries that often cause an avalanche of other problems that leads to poverty. She said she hopes to make the public more aware of this if she is elected to council. Capler also said her experience working with LGBTQ people as a social worker will give her perspective other council members may not have. She identifies as a lesbian and co-founded a group called FairTalk to advocate for marriage equality. “I’m not running on being a lesbian,” she said. “But diversity does matter.” Kathy Byers, longtime friend of Capler’s and recently retired director of IU’s undergraduate social work program, said Capler’s experience as a social worker will benefit her on the council. “I think she will bring a knowledge base that’s really important,” Byers said. “She brings that perspective of understanding people who face significant challenges.” Capler said she sees increasing the capacity of
public transit and bike and pedestrian infrastructure as a social equalizer for those who don’t have cars. “Alternative transportation is the insurance policy that everyone can access in this community,” Capler said. She said she would allocate more resources to Bloomington Transit so buses can be more reliable and people can cut-down on car usage. “We’re all car-dependent,” Capler said. “I am, too. The bus comes to my neighborhood only once an hour.” Affordable housing is also important to Capler. She said she would support adding duplexes and triplexes to neighborhoods if they were actually priced lower. She also would support accessory dwelling units, small houses on a larger house’s property or an area above a garage, if they were rented out by homeowners. “I understand that neighborhoods don’t want to change the character of their neighborhood by adding density,” Capler said. “But I think there’s a viable way to do it.” Capler won the Bloomington’s Woman of the
Year award in 2016 and just recently won the 2019 National Social Worker of the Year Award for her Indiana region. Leslie Skooglund, Capler’s friend and local elementary school social worker, said she volunteered with Capler at Hoosier Action last fall during the primary elections. Hoosier Action is a group focused on building political power among the poor and working class Hoosiers in southern Indiana. Skooglund said Jean encouraged her to be a team captain with her, and they campaigned for candidates including Liz Watson and Joe Donnelly. “She volunteered and worked harder than any human being I’ve ever seen,” Skooglund said. “This woman did everything.” If Capler was elected to council, Skooglund said, she would try to bring everyone to the table and add her own special perspective as a woman and a lesbian. “I think we need more women on the council,” Skooglund said. “I think we need more minority women on council.”
A total of six mumps cases have been confirmed at IU since Feb. 21. The last three cases were confirmed last week. The third and fourth patients were in close contact with each other, IU spokesperson Chuck Carney said. The fourth afflicted person lives in a fraternity house. Carney said the house won’t be identified to protect its members’ privacy. The other two cases lived off campus. He said one of the cases of mumps was diagnosed in an international student. IU is
notifying and advising those who have been in contact with these people to get an extra measles, mumps and rubella vaccine as a precaution. IU won’t be setting up a campus-wide clinic to address the issue because the number of cases doesn’t warrant it, according to the Indiana State Department of Health’s assessment, Carney said. Mumps is characterized by swelling of the salivary glands and pain while chewing, accompanied by fevers and headaches, according to the Mayo Clinic. Vaccines and practicing good hygiene can prevent mumps.

Home runs continue to power IU’s offense By Stefan Krajisnik stefkraj@iu.edu | @skrajisnik3
When IU is consistently hitting the long ball, it’s a scary sight for opposing teams. Take Maryland, for example. Last weekend, the Terrapins shut out the Hoosiers in game one of the series. But IU tore the cover off the ball in the final two games. Ping. The ball flew to left field. Ping. To center.
Ping. To right. The Hoosiers scored 39 runs and hit 13 home runs to take the series and bring momentum into a midweek game against Head Coach Jeff Mercer’s former team, Wright State University. The home runs continued into Wednesday’s game against Wright State, but the winning didn’t. The Raiders took a 15-4 win, despite giving up three home runs to the nation’s top home runhitting team.
“You don’t just get to club 15 home runs and win 20-1, it doesn’t happen very often,” Mercer said. “You have to be excellent, and you have to live to the standard and work to the standard every day in every part of the game or you get punched in the mouth.” IU, now 17-11 overall, lost its two leading home run hitters in Luke Miller and Logan Sowers last offseason to the MLB Draft. The Hoosiers have had no problem filling their shoes. Sophomore infielder Cole
Barr ranks in the top-20 in the nation with his 11 home runs this season. Senior utility player Matt Lloyd has already matched his home run total from last season with nine. Junior outfielder Matt Gorski has lived up to high expectations with eight on the season. Freshman outfielder Grant Richardson has been on a tear since earning a starting role and has hit six home runs this season. Sophomore infielder Drew Ashley came on the Indiana Daily Student podcast Base-
line Banter this week to talk about the offensive success. “It’s just a bunch of guys working really hard in every aspect of the game,” Ashley said. “When you’ve got a whole lineup of guys that put a great swing on the ball every time, or a majority of the time, then you have results like we do.” Mercer said the way the team has approached hitting home runs is how each player needs to approach other parts of the game. “As we’ve continued to
buy in and understand how to run a real offense, from the beginning of the season to now, we’ve gotten far better,” Mercer said. “We just have to do that in everything — the way we throw fast balls for a strike, the way we take care of the ball, the way we value the baseball on defense.” IU will look to bounce back from the loss with a weekend series at home against Penn State. The Hoosiers are 9-2 at home and have hit 24 of their 55 home runs in Bloomington.
MEN’S BASKETBALL
Cheaney elected to College Basketball Hall of Fame By Cameron Drummond cpdrummo@iu.edu | @cdrummond97
One of the most memorable players in IU men’s basketball history is now set to take his place among the all-time greats of college basketball. It was announced Tuesday that Calbert Cheaney, IU’s all-time leading scorer with 2,613 career points, will be inducted into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of
Fame later this year. Cheaney is part of the Class of 2019 set to be enshrined in the Hall of Fame on Nov. 24 in Kansas City. This year’s class features six former players, including Cheaney, and three former head coaches. The other five players selected are Duke University’s Shane Battier, Purdue’s Terry Dischinger, Providence College’s Ernie DiGregorio, the University of Nevada,
Las Vegas’ Larry Johnson and Stanford University’s Todd Lichti. The three coaches also entering the Hall of Fame are Homer Drew, Lute Olson and Rick Majerus. Cheaney played at IU from 1989-93 and was named a three-time AllAmerican during his college career. The Hoosiers won 105 games during his four college seasons, which also featured four trips to the NCAA Tour-
nament, two Big Ten Regular Season championships and an appearance in the Final Four in 1992. Cheaney was an in-state recruit who attended William Henry Harrison High School in Evansville, Indiana. He was named the Big Ten Player of the Year and the National Player of the Year as a senior in 1993, when he averaged more than 22 points and six re-
bounds per game. Following his time as a Hoosier, Cheaney was selected with the sixth overall pick in the 1993 NBA Draft by the then-Washington Bullets, and he played 13 seasons in the NBA for five franchises. After his playing career, Cheaney has spent time as a coach. From 2013-16 he was an assistant coach at Saint Louis University, and since 2018, Cheaney has been
an assistant coach with the Erie BayHawks of the NBA G League. With Tuesday’s announcement, Cheaney becomes the sixth former IU player to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. The other five are Isiah Thomas, Branch McCracken, Walt Bellamy, Quinn Buckner and Scott May. Former IU Head Coach Bob Knight is also a member of the Hall of Fame.

Time to stop thinking freshman teams can win
What MSU’s win over Duke means for Izzo
Dan Black is a senior in sports media.
They’re fun, they’re fresh and they’re flashy. But once again, a freshman-led men’s basketball team will no longer be in contention for an NCAA championship. Following the losses by University of Kentucky and Duke University this past weekend, there are no more teams in the tournament driven by firstyear athletes. Instead, it’s left to the old dogs of Auburn University, Michigan State, Texas Tech University and University of Virginia to brawl for the coveted trophy. We will no longer see the freshmen trio of Zion Williamson, RJ Barrett and Cam Reddish for Duke, or Tyler Herro and Keldon Johnson from Kentucky. When a team with as much firepower as Duke can’t get it done, it also lays to rest the idea that we need to hype up teams that are predominantly run by 18 year olds. Each October the team with the hot, young superstars, traditionally a blue blood program, gets anointed champion before a ball is even tipped. Most years it’s Kentucky, this year it was Duke, and not for unjust reasoning. They had more than enough talent, but those players were freshmen. College basketball fans have yet to learn that freshman teams don’t win. It’s not something that is so far fetched either. Since 2011, when the bracket ex-

panded to 68 teams, only twice has a freshman-dominated team been crowned champions – Kentucky in 2012 and Duke in 2015 – but even those teams had veterans that greatly contributed to their teams’ runs. It shouldn’t surprise us that experience, time and time again, overpowers talent. It is something that happens day in and day out in regular life. Even in professional sports, seldom do you see a team of first, second or third-year players
take down a team of guys on their second or third contracts because the latter group has seen everything the former group hasn’t. For some reason though, that doesn’t surprise us. But when a veteran Michigan State team defeats Duke, who had to squeak out lastsecond wins against University of Central Florida and Virginia Tech, we’re colored surprised. It’s always fun to speculate how these teams of young studs will gel and
mesh in what is in most cases their only year together, but it’s not realistic to believe that it will bond quickly enough to result in a championship. When the next college basketball season rolls around in roughly six months, remember to pick your winner wisely. Flashiness is great, but sometimes it shines too bright and breaks. It’s the dim teams that tend to find just enough to shine on. drblack@iu.edu
Michigan State might not be seeded as high as the No. 1 overall seed Duke University, but they sure have been playing like it.

While Izzo has only won the NCAA title once, his eight appearances in the Final Four rank him fifth all-time for a coach and third among active coaches. Having secured a spot in the 2019 Final Four in Minneapolis, Izzo and the Spartans have the opportunity to win a much deserved second NCAA title, but the path will not be easy. To even reach the championship game, Michigan State must face off against a red-hot Texas Tech University team that is fresh off two straight impressive wins. In the Sweet 16, the third seeded Texas Tech team defeated two seed Michigan before knocking off one seed Gonzaga University in the Elite Eight. If Michigan State can get past the defensive power-
house of Texas Tech, it will most likely face the University of Virginia in the championship game, unless the also red-hot No. 5 seeded Auburn University can keep the upset streak going. If Izzo has to face Texas Tech and Virginia in the next two games, he will be facing the two best defenses in the entire NCAA. During the regular season, the Cavaliers had the top scoring defense in the country and the Red Raiders were not far behind, ranked third. The Wolverines were ranked second. Izzo has spent his entire head coaching career at Michigan State, winning four national coach of the year awards, nine Big Ten championships and six Big Ten Tournament championships in 24 years. Not only is he the winningest coach in school history, his six Big Ten Tournament titles are the most in the history of the Big Ten Conference. He is also second in conference wins behind former IU Coach Bob Knight. While Izzo has not won a NCAA Championship since 2000, he has made the Spartans into a premiere collegiate basketball program. In that time, he has become one of the most accomplished coaches in the NCAA and, if he wins a second championship, should enter the conversation as one of the greatest Big Ten coaches of all time. bschaff@iu.edu

tioned for “MASS” in December after being in a few IU productions. Dobbins, who uses they/them pronouns, said they felt very supported by the music school throughout the process through secondary voice lessons for nonmajors and the welcoming people. “It’s hard for me to get up on stage, but when I’m there with other people who I know value that experience as much as I do, I don’t feel so anxious anymore,” Dobbins said. Despite experiencing discrimination in their high school theater department, Dobbins said they continued to pursue theater. “I was told time and time again that I should just give up, and I never gave up, I just kept trying harder and harder,” they said. “I knew there would be something better for me out there than what I had been given.” Dobbins said Evans has put a large emphasis on diver-

and tradition look like.” Belle said people should come take part in the day and be ready to learn something new and make new friends while keeping powwow etiquette in mind. “We encourage people to ask questions, to partake in what’s going on,” he said. “But also to not assume a level of comfort that is disrespectful. To approach everything with a degree of respect and acknowledge that there is something to learn here.” Leading up to the powwow, Adrian Stevens and Sean Snyder will speak Thursday on campus about their experiences as a TwoSpirit Native American couple. “Two spirit is an umbrella term to encompass all identities outside the gender binary,” Williams said. The couple started dancing together at powwows during the Sweetheart Dance, a dance that is commonly done between males

sity in “MASS.” This will be the first production of “MASS” to include four faith leaders from different religions, including Islam, Hinduism, Judaism and Buddhism. Throughout the show, they
interact with the main Catholic celebrant. “I hope that mainly people allow themselves to ask questions about their own faith,” Evans said. “It’s very very personal, and that’s why I wanted
to diversify it.” Dobbins said “MASS” will inspire audience members to think about how they interact with others, and the world. “We’re all asking the same questions,” Dobbins said.
and females, breaking common powwow tradition. Here is a line-up of events at Saturday’s powwow:
Attendees can enjoy food at the event during the lunch break from noon to 1 p.m. A family-owned taco stand called “Frybread and Chill” will be selling Native American tacos on fry bread, Williams said.
A group from the Indiana School of Polynesian Arts, Indy Hula, will perform at 5 p.m., followed by a dinner break. Belle said it’s important to invite other indigenous groups from North America to perform at the powwow to give dancers the opportunity to come together and learn from one another. “A powwow is a social dancing event,” he said. “It’s an event where people from native and indigenous communities across the country come together to celebrate and participate in aspects of social dance culture. So it’s very appropriate to include other indigenous dance groups from North America.”
10 a.m. Doors open at 10 a.m., and WonderLab Museum will perform a science experiment for children in attendance. Vendors also open their booths at this time, selling items such as handmade jewelry, clothing and crafts. “The target audience for these booths isn’t always nonnative people,” Williams said. “But what I think non-native people can gain from that is the chance to speak with the artist one-on-one and ask questions about their trade or their craft and see what their story is.” 11 a.m. The Indiana Raptor Center, a hospital in Nashville, Indiana, for birds of prey such as hawks and eagles, will bring some of its birds for a live raptor show from 11 a.m. to noon.
1 p.m. The Afternoon Grand Entry will begin at 1 p.m., followed by hours of music – performed by singers and dancers – from across the country. During this time, a special dance will honor Williams, since it will be her last powwow while working for the university. “The grass dance special is being done in honor of Heather’s work and her time and her contribution,” Belle said. “It gives people an opportunity to participate in this honoring for Heather.” All grass dancers present will be invited to take part in the special, Williams said. “My favorite style of dance is grass dancing,” she said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 hurt it more than anything. Two errors, eight walks and two passed balls by IU led to many offensive chances for Wright State. IU freshman pitcher McCade Brown made his collegiate debut on the mound but quickly dug himself into a hole. Three walks in the first inning, followed by a fielder’s choice, gave Wright State an early lead. Still, Mercer said he was impressed with what he saw from Brown in his first collegiate appearance. “I was glad to see McCade Brown out there today,” Mercer said. “He’s such a good kid, and he’s worked really hard. With some of the midweek struggles, we felt like it was the right time to bring him in.” IU sophomore infielder Cole Barr tied the game with his conference leading 11th home run of the season. From there on, it was all Wright State. Wright State outfielder Peyton Burdick and infielder

Seth Gray both had outstanding days at the plate. Burdick had two hits and two runs batted in while Gray added two hits of his own with three runs batted in. IU had many well-hit balls but it couldn’t get anything to fall. Junior outfielder Matt Gorski added a solo home run while Scotty Bradley continued his hot streak with a two-run shot. Wednesday’s offensive performance proved how much IU relies on home runs. With 55 home runs this season, IU is sparked by power but also dampered by strikeouts. “We have talented players, and we have really good coaches,” Mercer said. “When you have a combination of players with physical talent that work as well as talented coaches, good things can happen.” IU will look to get back on track this weekend as it welcomes Penn State to Bloomington. Penn State is winless in conference play but is 15-8 on the season as of Wednesday.

Q&A: Improv group goes live By Grace Ybarra gnybarra@iu.edu | @gnybarra
The cast members of the Emmy-nominated TV show “Whose Line Is It Anyway?” will present their improv tour “Whose Live Anyway?” at 8 p.m. April 5 at the IU Auditorium. The show includes improvised comedy and songs based on audience suggestions. The Indiana Daily Student spoke with actor and “Whose Live Anyway?” performer Dave Foley. Responses have been edited for brevity and clarity. IDS: How did you get involved with “Whose Live Anyway?t”? DF: I got involved because of a late-night phone call. The guys were on the road with Ryan Stiles, and Ryan got sick and they needed someone to fill in for the show the next day. So I got a call around 11 o’clock at night from the guys asking if I could meet them in Indiana. I didn’t have much time to think about it, so I said yes. When was the phone call? Well, that was about a year ago, I guess when I first started going out and doing some shows with them. How do improv shows differ from acting in movies? The main difference with improv is you don’t have to do any work until you hit the stage, so your days are free.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6 — You're more productive in peaceful privacy. Make longterm plans. Enjoy rituals, spiritual ceremonies and practices. Let go of old habits that no longer serve.
First Thursdays ends for semester ByAbby Malala abbridge@iu.edu | @abbymalala
Did you ever watch the TV show “Whose Line Is It Anyway?”
Do you have a favorite improv game you play during the show?
Yeah, I watched it occasionally, not all of the time. But I’ve known Ryan Stiles and Colin Mochrie from Toronto days, going back almost 30 years so I’d tune in to watch those guys. And I’ve known Greg Proops for a long time and Bill Murray for a while. Jeff Davis is the only guy in the group that I didn’t know before starting to do these.
There’s a game called “Sentences” that I really like where we hand out slips of paper to the audience before the show. We ask people to write down sentence-length lines of dialogue. Lately, Joel and I have been doing it, where you then have all these slips of paper in your pocket and you get an idea for a scene. As you’re playing the scene out, every once in a while, we have to reach into our pocket and grab one of the slips of paper and incorporate that line of dialogue into whatever we’re doing in the moment.
When watching the show, did it seem like something you’d want to do? Well, it never struck me as something that I wanted to be a part of. I said, “Oh improv’s so hard.” But, that’s how I started out. I started out as an improviser when I was a kid. That was the first thing I did as a comedian. I think it came at the right time.
Horoscope Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 9 — Personal insights and epiphanies can inspire you over the next two weeks. Take your talents, capacities and skills to new levels by practicing basics.
Editors Annie Aguiar and Joe Schroeder arts@idsnews.com
Do you have any funny or interesting memories from previous shows? Honestly, I can’t think of anything because I have
such a terrible memory. It all disappears. That’s one of the things with improv, it all just disappears as soon as you finish it. All I can say is the fun of the show is you’re on stage with other guys that make you laugh. It’s also fun to be funny. At the end of the show, you feel pretty good about yourself after you’ve gone out and been funny for a while. Of course, the flipside is true, if you go out there and you’re not funny at all, you feel pretty terrible about yourself. What should audience members expect? The thing to expect is a show where we have no idea what to expect. We’re as in the dark about it as the audience. Just know that we’re very skilled and trained professionals, so most of the time it goes well for everybody. I’d say at least 70 percent of the time.
To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Today is an 8 — Share what you're learning with your friends. A community project flowers over the next few weeks. Strengthen connections with people you admire and respect.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is an 8 — Enjoy a business trip or conference. Classes and seminars offer useful skills and connections. Begin an intense expansion phase. You're learning a whole new perspective.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Today is an 8 — Professional opportunities look ripe for the plucking. Listen to your angels. Get advice from a trusted elder. The next few days are good for decisions.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is an 8 — Discuss financial goals, objectives and dreams with your partner. Review your plans and budgets. Negotiate bargains and plot your course together.

The final First Thursdays Festival of the academic year will take place from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday at the Fine Arts Plaza. Live bands will perform on the steps of the IU Auditorium, and activities and food will be available around Showalter Fountain and down Seventh Street. All performances and activities are free and open to the public, with food available for purchase. Food will be provided by IU Catering and inspired by recipes from “The Classic Hoosier Cookbook” originally published by IU Press in 1976, according to the IU Arts and Humanities Council website. The First Thursdays Festival happens every month and showcases local music and art. Past First Thursdays festivals have showcased opera, dancing, music and art from a variety of cultural centers. Each festival features a new theme. The IU Arts and Humanities Council website says this month’s activities will be centered around community inclusivity. Theme-based activities will include a human library where you can “check out” an individual and hear their story and the I Am Worthy project, a photography series celebrating diversity and individuality. Other activities include a preview of this year’s Granfalloon Festival in celebration of Kurt Vonnegut, several maker
stations provided by the School of Art, Architecture & Design and a booth on the art of film scoring presented by the IU Cinema. This month, local bands Heaven Honey, Flower Mouth, Bike Wreck and Secret Mezzanine will be performing The selection of musical performances is inspired by the local house show scene. The bands performing are known for their appearances in Bloomington’s basement venues. One of the bands, Secret Mezzanine, just released a new EP. “We’re absolutely stoked to be playing at First Thursdays. It’s such a cool event to be a part of,” said Garrett Spoelhof, Secret Mezzanine’s keyboardist and IU freshman. “We’ll be playing music from our latest EP among other stuff, and it’s exciting to put that in front of a new audience.” The local bands won’t be the only performers at Thursday’s festival. The IU Theatre program will be performing parts of its upcoming show “Wonderful Town,” and the IU a cappella singing group Singing Hoosiers will be performing songs from the Beatles, the Beach Boys and some folk music. “It’s a good way to make sure we’re all prepared and have a feel for the music and choreography before we dive into tech week,” said Lilian Rona, a sophomore member of Singing Hoosiers.

HENLEY’S HOT TAKES
ILLUSRATION BY MADELYN POWERS | IDS
Georgia’s heartbeat bill threatens women’s rights even more Carson Henley is a sophomore in media.
Georgia lawmakers recently passed the Living Infants Fairness and Equality (LIFE) Act in its House of Representatives. The bill, which is now awaiting the approval of anti-abortion Gov. Brian Kemp, would outlaw abortions in most cases where a heartbeat can be observed in an embryo. The term “heartbeat” has been called into question, as “cardiac activity” may be more accurate terminology for an embryo that cannot yet be considered a fetus. Generally speaking, a “heartbeat” can be found at around six weeks from a woman’s last period. For a typical cycle, that means a period that’s only two weeks late. If a woman’s cycle is longer or irregular, she may not find out that she’s pregnant until it’s too late for her to get an abortion. But I am not writing this to convince you to oppose or support this legislation. I am writing to tell you that I am
tired of being a woman. Every day I wake up, and I am a woman. There are moments when that is awesome and magical. A classmate I have never spoken to before offers me a hair tie as I complain about how unruly my hair is being. The only other girl up at 3 a.m. gives me her last pad when I’m out. I cry in public, and the women walking by stops to check on me. I am reminded that I am not alone. We are taking care of each other. There are moments it feels non-awesome and unmagical. Looking at the news and seeing a wealthy white man older than time making decisions about uteri he has no stake in, suddenly your stomach hurts more than it ever has from period cramps. They’re calling it the LIFE Act. Opposing such a thing would be inhumane on my part. I do not want to be against life. Never mind that it’s a manipulative acronym that will ruin lives. Never mind that Georgia lawmakers have not
mandated statewide comprehensive sex education, allowing over a third of high schools to teach abstinence as sex education, despite the fact comprehensive sex education has been linked to lower rates of teen pregnancy. I sit and I feel guilty for an abortion I have not had, but might need one day. Frankly, that is outrageous. But it’s not uncommon for women. We are simultaneously the victim and the villain. We are overreacting and overly emotional as we are dismissed. A slut as we are assaulted. A bad mother as we return to work, unable to afford to stay home. It’s exhausting and dehumanizing. To live your life not only discouraged when the bagel place is out of your usual order, but with the looming sense that every institution in your life is designed to your disadvantage and the culture of every day life is eager to place the blame on you. And that’s my experience
HEAR ME OUT...
as a privileged cis-gendered white woman. Black women in the United States die from pregnancy-related issues at three to four times the rate of white women. This has been attributed in part to health care access but also how likely black women are to have their symptoms dismissed. Latina women make up 53 percent of what white men make. That’s nearly half the paycheck of a white man. Trans women face incredibly high rates of violence. A study from the Human Rights Campaign and Trans People of Color Coalition estimated that in comparison to cis women, trans women are 4.3 times as likely to be murdered in the United States. I cannot imagine the mental toll of being a minority woman in the U.S. I’m exhausted from being a cis white woman. These are not just statistics, and they’re not numbers for someone to hear, be upset by for 30 minutes max, only
to be forgotten by bedtime. They’re drawn from the real world. Real life institutions and attitudes that rule our society have generated these numbers that shape every aspect of life for living breathing people. Being a woman pervades every aspect of our lives. And being a man does the same. We just don’t notice it because when privilege permeates, it doesn’t suck. It’s easy to forget the advantages our society has ingrained so deeply in our concept of manhood. It’s harder to stop and recognize when we’re talking over others and making their decisions for them. We can’t overthrow institutionalized misogyny overnight. It’s not an easy fix. But we can listen to the women in our lives. We can let them vent and amplify their voices. We can work to be better and take action against measures that will further disadvantage women. cehenley@iu.edu
MATT-ER OF FACT
Now is time for the NFL to address social issues Tristan Jackson is a freshman in journalism.
The NFL held its league meetings last week and agreed on new rules to improve the game. Changes included permanently implementing the kickoff rules set in 2018, a new penalty on blindside blocks in attempt to further reduce concussions and allowing league officials to eject players if referees on the field miss ejectable actions by players. The NFL has made strides to improve player safety, but when will it begin to address the social issues it has within its organization? Since Colin Kaepernick sparked a movement of NFL players kneeling during the national anthem, the NFL has done an unacceptably bad job at addressing social issues such as racial tensions and domestic violence incidents. Considering today’s political climate, it is surprising to me that the NFL has done little to nothing to combat the issues that have plagued the organization over the past few years. Before the 2018 season, the NFL decided to shelf the issue of national anthem protests until this offseason and did not discipline players who decided to protest. The NFL reached a compromise of sorts in May 2018 which allowed players to remain in the locker room during the anthem, but players remained subject to fine if they
kneeled on the field. Technically this rule still stands, but the NFL decided not to enforce it during the 2018 season. With this issue still unaddressed, the NFL has proven that it has no intention of changing its policies and will continue its useless efforts to silence players. Where competing organizations such as the NBA have succeeded, the NFL has proven time and time again that its players’ right to protest is not a priority. In all fairness, the efforts of heightened player safety in the NFL have proven effective. Concussion rates dropped 29 percent in 2018 compared to 2017. However, despite the already evident damage the game does to its players’ physical and mental health, if it wasn’t for over $500 million worth of claims by former players over the past two years the NFL would’ve downplayed the issue just like it has with these anthem protest. At this point, the NFL seems to be stalling to save its ratings over what should not even be an issue. For whatever reason, NFL owners have a huge problem with their players having any sort of voice, and until it starts losing them money the owners won’t look to fix this problem. Now is the time for change in the NFL. The NFL needs to address these issues and end its efforts to silence players. tripjack@iu.edu

MATT BEGALA | IDS
President Trump points to Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb during the Trump rally Nov. 2 in the Southport High School field house.
Time to move from Trump-Russia conspiracies Matthew Waterman is a senior in jazz studies, theater and drama.
The moment many opponents of President Trump have been anxiously awaiting for two years has come and gone without nearly as much fanfare as one might have expected. Attorney General William Barr released his four-page summary of the report prepared by Special Counsel Robert Mueller on allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and, more significantly, allegations that the Trump campaign conspired with the Russian government in that interference. From what we can see in Barr’s summary, the Mueller report is a big, fat nothing-burger, at least when it comes to the issue of the alleged collusion between Trump and Russia. According to Barr, Mueller recommended no further indictments and did not find that anyone in the Trump campaign cooperated with Russian interference. That’s not to say the Mueller investigation was meaningless. Over the course of the investigation, Mueller’s team indicted or
received guilty pleas from 34 individuals and three companies relating to various charges. Six of those individuals are former Trump advisors. Additionally, Barr’s letter mentions some matters that were pertinent to law enforcement but outside the scope of the special counsel’s mission were referred to other offices or agencies. But let’s not pretend we don’t know what this was all about for the Democratic Party: The hope that Mueller would link Trump to Russian interference. That didn’t happen, and it won’t. Some liberals, however, are continuing to rely on the fact that the American public and Congress haven’t received the full report yet as a way to keep the suspicion going. This is a political mistake. Of course the general public should get access to the Mueller report. We have reason to believe we will at least see most of it. Barr’s letter acknowledges the public interest in the report. It explains it will be released when the Department of Justice finishes decisions about what information should be publicly available, with consideration for how the public availability
of certain information could affect matters which Mueller referred to other offices. This should be around midApril. The U.S. government does have a habit of overclassifying information, and it very well might redact parts they shouldn’t. But let’s not pretend the main thrust will be any different than what it seems. Sure, Barr was appointed by Trump and may be biased in his favor. But Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein also reviewed the report, probably along with other Justice Department officials. Would they let Barr blatantly lie about the findings without speaking out? Then there’s the issue of Mueller himself. Mueller and Barr have been friends and colleagues for three decades. Even if Barr wanted to publicly distort the report’s findings, there’s little to no chance that Mueller and his entire team would silently sit by as the American people were blatantly lied to. Two years of unhinged press coverage of Russiagate has occupied enormous airtime that could have been devoted to much more consequential issues. During
this whole debacle, there was a period of more than a full year in which MSNBC did not even once mention one of the world’s worst disasters being perpetuated by the Trump administration: The war in Yemen. Cold War mentalities toward Russia have also been revived among liberals, leaving few voicing concern about the rising tensions between the world’s two biggest nuclear powers. Claims that Trump is a Russian asset have ignored that the Trump administration has at various times sharply contradicted Russian interests on Ukraine, Syria, NATO, the INF treaty and the Iran nuclear agreement. Even if Trump could be indicted and impeached for the secondary issue of obstruction of justice, it would leave us with a Pence administration implementing the same policies and a large chunk of the country feeling that democracy had been overridden, which could lead to another Trump-like phenomenon. Trump is guilty of countless injustices and even atrocities, but colluding with Russia isn’t one. Let’s put this to rest. matwater@iu.edu

Boy Band Review to perform this Saturday By Madison Smalstig msmalsti@iu.edu | @madi_smals
The cover band Boy Band Review will perform at 9 p.m. Saturday at the Bluebird Nightclub. The group covers boy band music spanning from the ‘90s to now, performing songs from bands such as ‘NSync, the Backstreet Boys, New Kids on the Block, Boyz II Men, One Direction and the Jonas Brothers. The four singers in the band are Brian Bender, Jan Torres, Zachary Krugman and Lucas DiCatta. The band members are drummer David Long, bass guitarist Jordan Dismuke and lead guitarist TJ Belek. Some of the songs featured include “Bye Bye Bye” by ‘NSync, “Everybody (Backstreet’s Back)” by the Backstreet Boys and “MMMBop” by Hanson. The band also perform a few songs from solo artists such as Justin Timberlake and
Justin Bieber. In addition to music, the show also includes interview clips from band members from the actual boy bands and special dance moves that coincide with the songs, including the famous wave during “Bye Bye Bye.” Boy Band Review was formed after Bender realized how much people loved that music. In August 2006, Bender and a few of his friends formed the ‘90s tribute band the Hot Sauce Committee, a name based on the Beastie Boys’ final album. In the midst of its set, the group would perform five boy band songs. Every time, the band knew that the crowd would enjoy that fivesong interval, Bender said. “People would go crazy for it,” Bender said. “We knew it would be a barn burner and everyone would love it.” One night, the band actually played a boy bandthemed show.

Boy Band Review plays Nov. 21, 2018, at Durty Nellies in Chicago.
The band sold out a room meant for 1,000 people. “The PA wasn’t loud enough because people were singing so loud with the songs,” Bender said. After that night, the band performed a few more shows like those before de-
ciding to go full boy band, Bender said. “There was a demand in the market for boy band music, and we were gonna give it to them,” Bender said. The group changed its name to Boy Band Review in January 2016 and signed a
deal to perform at the Sin City Theatre for the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas that same month. After spending five months traveling around the country and workshopping theshow, the group arrived in Vegas. The residency in Las Vegas
lasted six months. The group returned to Chicago in 2017 with the plan to continue and grow its show. Although many of the original members left after the Vegas run, the group continued to expand its reach around the country with new members in place. Today, the group travel around the country, performing three to four nights a week at different festivals, amphitheaters, casinos and performance venues. For Saturday’s show at the Bluebird, Bender said the audience should expect a fun throwback to a time when things were simpler and fun. “It’s just a fun throwback of songs that you may have forgotten about or were anthems when you were a teenager or just starting in college,” Bender said. “It’s like reliving the best years of your life.” Tickets for the show are available online for $8. The doors open at 8 p.m.
MUSIC COLUMN
Yes, all music is political Katie Maher is a junior studying folklore and ethnomusicology and cinema and media production
When Spanish pop singer Rosalía released her old school reggaeton-inspired single “Con Altura” last month, it didn’t take long for anonymous users in the comment section to accuse the singer as a repeat offender of appropriating cultures. The first time Rosalía was publicly called out for appropriating and capitalizing on cultures that are not of her Spanish origins came in 2018 with the success of her multiple Latin Grammy Awardwinning album “El Mal Querer.” “El Mal Querer” is a conceptual, experimental flamenco pop album. Flamenco
is a traditional form of song and dance performed by Andalusian Roma people in southern Spain. Rosalía is not of Andalusian Roma descent, but credits her decision to make a flamenco album on her deep love for the genre that developed when she encountered flamenco as a child. The reggaeton roots of “Con Altura,” however, are not a part of Rosalía’s upbringing. Reggaeton originates from 1950s Puerto Rico and has seen significant crossover success and acceptance in mainstream American music over the recent years. Daddy Yankee’s 2004 hit “Gasolina” and Luis Fonsi’s “Despacito” in 2017 were high-charting songs in the United States the years they were released. Why do politics have to
be brought up when talking about a fun dance song? Because music, even music created fully with the intention to entertain, is inherently political. It would be hard to argue when listening to the lyrics of “Con Altura,” the title meaning with height in Spanish, that there is a political dimension to the song, but the politics of performance are at play. Why is Rosalía, and not a female artist who specializes in reggaeton, granted a feature on a J. Balvins song that was more or less projected to become an international hit? Fans of reggaeton generally don’t report offense when a non-Puerto Rican artist performs reggaeton. The genre’s popularity has spread universally in Spanish-speaking countries. It is understood
that reggaeton is a hybrid genre influenced by Latin music, hip hop and Afro-Caribbean rhythms. However, context matters. Up until the ‘90s, pioneers of reggaeton were harshly criticized, demonized in the media, and had to fight to keep the genre alive despite the threat of obscenity fines and jailing by Puerto Rican police. Rosalía’s critics allege the artist tends to pick up and drop genres at her discretion, often from groups that are often marginalized. According to writer Angela Membrado, it is hard to find the line between appropriation and inspiration in Rosalía’s work. Surely, everything can be political. But that begs the question: should nonreactionary, nonpolitical music should be interpreted at all
from a political lens? The only reasonable answer might just be that it’s complicated. On one side, over-analyzing the politics behind the history song or its lyrics could take away from the core intention of the art. But disregarding politics can erase other issues, especially the sociopolitical. In the case of “Con Altura”, the popularity of the song cross-culturally might introduce listeners unfamiliar with reggaeton to underrepresented reggaeton artists and give them an international spotlight. If that doesn’t happen, “Con Altura” will be another case where an artist capitalized off of an art form by a marginalized group — even though this is more often than not completely unintentional.
Though Rosalía has a deep passion and respect for flamenco as an art form, flamenco and other flamenco artists have not received much further attention or acclaim on an international stage since the success of this album. Though reggaeton has wider international acceptance than flamenco, it is uncertain if the success of “Con Altura” will leverage underrepresented reggaeton artists. As George Orwell said, “The very notion that art should have nothing to do with politics is itself a political position.” Politics are an intrinsic part of music and music-making, but it is up to the listener to decide just how much politics matter in their listening habits. katamahe@iu.edu
