With tears in her eyes, Vi Simpson said her proudest moment was when her grandchildren watched her on television announcing the Indiana delegates for Clinton at roll call.
“It’s not just historical. For me, this was something I didn’t think I’d ever see,” the former state senator and Indiana Delegation Chairwoman said. Simpson and other local Democratic Party leaders welcomed 200 southern Indiana residents to the new party office Wednesday, located at 501 N. Walnut St.,
and encouraged supporters to get involved. The office will be home to the campaigns for Clinton, John Gregg, Evan Bayh, Glenda Ritz and other local Democrats. Simpson said this is the most important election voters will ever participate in, and SEE DEMOCRATIC, PAGE 6
Professor to be honored in tribute concert By Katie Chrisco kchrisco@ius.edu | @katiechrisco
A little over a year after his death, piano professor Alfonso Montecino will be honored with an event at which he excelled during his lifetime: a concert performance. Jacobs School of Music faculty and invited artists will perform 8 p.m. tonight in Auer Hall to honor the renowned Chilean concert pianist and composer. “He is actually somebody who had a fantastic concert performance career in Europe, Asia and the United States at a time where it wasn’t very easy for Latin American performers to be known internationally in that way,” Director of the Latin American Music Center Javier León said. Although León did not have the opportunity to meet Montecino before his death, León said he worked closely with members of the Montecino family in order to organize the tribute concert. Montecino’s daughter Pilar Gunderson said she helped León SEE PIANO, PAGE 6

Just after 7:30 a.m. Wednesday, a southbound Ford passenger vehicle approaching Bryants Creek Road collided head on with a northbound 2007 International semitruck inside the State Road 37/Interstate 69 construction zone. Ryan R. Dixon of Bloomington, 29, was initially trapped inside his vehicle. He was rescued by emergency crews at the scene and transported to IU Health Bloomington for treatment. SR 37 is now open at Sample and Bryants Creek roads following a two-hour closing of both the north- and southbound lanes due to the crash. Dixon’s Ford drove left of center and failed to negotiate the right-hand curve in his path. The driver of the semitruck, Steven Levine, 58, of Bloomington, was not injured. This crash, in addition to Friday’s multi-car crash, was cited in Bloomington Mayor John Hamilton’s speech asking state officials to intervene and quicken the I-69 construction project.

Jared Crump, 25, of Greenwood, Indiana, died from injuries sustained in a semitrailer truck crash Wednesday morning. The Indiana State Police received information from Eskenazi Hospital that Crump succumbed to injures sustained in the crash and was pronounced dead at 1:17 a.m. Crump was driving a landscaping dump truck with one person in the passenger seat of the vehicle. The passenger in the truck with Crump, 21 year-old Nathan Davis of Indianapolis, also sustained serious injuries and is listed in serious condition at Eskenazi Hospital. Douglas Watson, 56, of Indianapolis was the driver of the semi-trailer truck and was not injured. After an ISP preliminary investigation, it appears traffic in the area had slowed to a stop when the landscaping dump truck, pulling a dump trailer, rear-ended the semi-trailer truck in the right lane. All lanes of Interstate-65 southbound were closed for approximately three hours while the crash was investigated and the wreckage was removed.

Talk merges science, beauty By Bryan Brussee bbrussee@umail.iu.edu
Does life imitate art or vice versa? Biology professor Roger Hangarter and Grunwald Gallery curator Betsy Stirratt attempted to answer that question Wednesday night with a presentation on Indiana’s wilderness as part of IU’s ongoing Themester. The presentation focused on photographs Hangarter had taken in a one and a half mile loop of the Yellowwood State Forest in August. Though he’d taken hundreds more, Stirratt selected the 25 she said felt were the most artistically beautiful. Each semester, the College of Arts and Sciences invites speakers with significant scholarly or creative credentials and who present on a specified theme through-
out the semester. The theme for this semester is “beauty.” Though a scientist, Hangarter did not stray from exploring the greater artistic and philosophical implications of humans’ ability to appreciate nature. “All of the beauty that we talk about ... derives from nature, because we derive from nature,” he said. The photographs that followed included lime green frogs, mushrooms bathed in their own spores and spider webs emitting complex patterns of light. Planned by a committee of IU professors and undergraduate students from a variety of academic backgrounds, Themester seeks to engage IU students across a variety of disciplines. This installment aimed to show the beauty of biology.
As he traded off commentary with Stirratt between photographs, Hangarter typically explained the name of the organism pictured. Occasionally, he sought audience participation. With an audience of about 50 biology majors and professors, it was not hard to find someone willing to identify anything from a starshaped fungus to a butterfly with a question mark pattern on its wings. Hangarter wished to impart a greater appreciation of nature’s aesthetics to his audience, one he implied might not be most in touch with it. “When I teach my students, they don’t know anything about the world outside,” Hangarter said. “A lot of us biologists ... we forget that there’s all these things
outside.” Though Stirratt admitted the projector used to show the images didn’t do the colors justice, she said she selected the pictures off of her taste, as well as the emotional reaction the images give her. At times her demeanor was as relaxed as Hangarter’s. “If you think it’s a bunch of baloney, you can tell me,” she said, commenting on her own analysis of Hangarter’s work. “And some of it is baloney.” Above all, the presenters sought to give their audience a new appreciation for the organisms living in Indiana. “It doesn’t matter what day it is,” Hangarter said. “You go out and walk in the woods, and you’ll see something amazing.”

Where to find one-semester housing By Christina Winfrey cawinfre@umail.iu.edu | @WinaTinfrey
When planning to study abroad for a semester, the focus may be on destination housing, but members of the Office of Overseas Study encourage students to put thought into their Bloomington housing as well. Residential Programs and Services and other off campus locations provide students with housing options while they are in Bloomington. This includes leasing or subleasing off-campus locations or applying for a fall only contract through RPS housing. “We recommend students try to plan a year in advance of when they want to go abroad,” Assistant Director Katie Saur said. In addition to Bloomington housing, this planning includes academic and financial aspects of the semester abroad. Kelly Thacker, RPS assistant director of housing assignments, said this contract
is designed for students leaving Bloomington after the fall semester due to graduation or participating in an IU program such as an internship, student teaching or study abroad. The student must have lived on campus for at least two semesters. The fall semester contract is available only for Ashton and Evermann residence locations. “Evermann is more apartment styles, so it might be a good option for upperclass students,” Saur said. Only a limited number of these fall only contracts are allowed, causing the housing locations to fill up quickly. Students wanting this option should follow the RPS weekly newsletter, InTouch, to be notified when the contracts are posted. Katie Blake, senior, had already decided her housing plans for her sophomore year before hearing of the fall only contract. She had decided to live in Union Street Center. When it came time for her to study abroad in southern
France, she opted to cancel her RPS contract. Blake said she paid thousands of dollars to cancel her contract. Her 2014 -2015 contract stated students would have to pay the daily rental amount through the cancellation date and 60 percent of the remaining balance on the contract. The 2016 to 2017 housing contract says students would pay a $600 fee for canceling the contract as well as the daily rental amount through the cancellation date. Blake said she wishes there were more options available for the fall only contract, so students would not have to go through the hassle of breaking the full year contract. From an RPS standpoint, the cancellation of housing contracts can cause some issues. “When a student leaves unexpectedly, this impacts the overall occupancy and, in turn, income of RPS,” Thacker said. “It is not always true that we are able to fill a space va-
cated by another student.” For those wishing to live off campus, Saur said another option is to sublease. While she said she believes this option is a little more challenging, she suggests posting or looking in the IU Classifieds. “I went abroad the spring semester of my final year, and I ended up just getting a fall sublet because I knew I was going to be gone for the spring,” Saur said. She stresses that students should plan financially in case they cannot find another student to sublease to and end up paying the full year’s rent. This also may be the case within greek houses, but Saur said students living there should check with their specific house’s breakage policies. She has seen cases in the past where students have had to pay Bloomington rent as well as their rent while they are abroad. “It is something we want students to be thinking about as they’re starting to plan their time abroad,” Saur said.
Student Advocates Office offers confidential services By Laxmi Palde lpalde@iu.edu | @LaxmiPalde
Tucked away into the halls of the second floor of Eigenmann Hall West is the Student Advocates Office, a confidential service available to IU students for a variety of purposes. The Student Advocates Office is made up of three teams that help students who have been charged with academic or personal misconduct, work with students who experience an academic problem and provides support and resources for survivors of sexual misconduct or sexual violence. “Our mission is to empower, to mentor students,” said Sally Jones, director of the Student Advocates Office. “We work with students who present or come to us with particularly complicated or sensitive issues. We try to partner with students to help them problem-solve.” The Judicial team helps students who have been charged with academic or
personal misconduct. The advocates in this team work with students to help them prepare appeals and understand their rights and responsibilities. They also accompany students to hearings or meetings with faculty. The Academic Administrative team works with students who are experiencing some kind of academic issue, including withdrawals and the effect of medical or personal issues on attendance, as well as students having a problem with an administrative office on campus. The third team works with survivors of sexual misconduct or sexual violence. The advocates provide support and connection to resources and assistance for survivors as they go through campus judicial system. Jones said the members on this team are full-time or part-time paid employees rather than volunteers because the demands of the job are often greater with respect to time. Jones said students seeking help can call or email the
office, visit the website or set up an appointment to speak with advocates. She said the office emphasizes individualized, personal service for students. “We want to have that one-on-one with students,” she said. “We may work with — in fact, we do work with — hundreds of students who’ve been charged with personal misconduct. But each one of those cases is individual and deserves the kind of privacy or individual attention that we’re able to give to it.” She said what differentiates the Student Advocates Office from other student resources on campus is that it has a broader view and the staff are knowledgeable about the interdependency of different areas of campus. Often advocates will make referrals to more focused resources, such as Counseling and Psychological Services or Academic Advising. “We are unique in that we point the students in the direction of other programs on the campus based on
their needs,” said volunteer student advocate Nick Hipskind. Hipskind became a professor at IU in 1970 and later was the Associate Dean of University Division. He retired in 2005 and became a student advocate in the same year. He said his experience as a faculty member helped shape his time as an advocate. “I guess I knew professors’ feelings about certain issues with certain types of students or certain problems that students may have, so that gave me some insight,” he said. Hipskind said he enjoys working at the Student Advocates Office, because it gives him a way to continue working with students even though he is not teaching. “It’s always nice when you see a success story where you have helped a student help themselves,” he said. “And the people here who volunteer are very dedicated people.”

NMBCC to host major events this weekend by Sarah Verschoor sverscho@indiana.edu @SarahVerschoor
Lauren Blackwell stopped into the Neal-Marshall Black Cultural Center her freshman year after the student involvement fair not knowing what the building and center had in store. Now, Blackwell is in her fifth year as a student worker and helps organize and coordinate events at the center. The center has three significant events coming up this week alone, including the Freshman Pinning Ceremony on Thursday which invites any student who identifies as African American or black to attend and become familiar with black leaders from around the community. “We are inviting the freshmen to campus as a way to show they are appreciated and welcome,” Blackwell said. The center will also host Umoja Day on Friday. The event brings student organizations, local business, student services and others to celebrate black culture and network with people across Bloomington. Following this event is Black Alumni weekend and the annual Fish Fry on Saturday. Blackwell said that events are designed to allow people to enjoy food and socialize but, more importantly, come together as a community. “It is important to be involved and make people feel included at a predominately white institution,” Blackwell said. “We want to make people feel like you are welcome here.” Muhammad Saahir knows first-hand the experience of being included at the

Neal-Marshall Center. Completing undergraduate and graduate degrees at IU, Saahir said he has been to many events at the center and the center even helped him pay for graduate school. Now, Saahir works in the center as the CAPS counselor. “It was really my home away from home,” Saahir said. “It gave me an outlet to reach out to the community through the culture center, but it is also a place on campus geared towards supporting African Americans.” In terms of the events at the center, he said he enjoyed the Black Knowledge Bowl, an academic contest about African-American culture and history, but especially the pinning ceremony because it really welcomed students onto campus as well as the community. Blackwell encourages students to attend both the Mid-Day House Party and First Friday events coming up at the end of this month and early October. “This a resource for the entire campus,” Saahir said. Blackwell said that with only 4 percent of IU’s student population indentifying as African American, the purpose of the center is to make people feel included. “We want to see the growth and community,” Blackwell said. “We want to build that together.”
Culture center looks forward to Hispanic Heritage Month By Sarah Verschoor sverscho@indiana.edu @SarahVerschoor
Since her first year at IU, graduate student Stephanie Huezo has attended the Nuestras Raises event at La Casa Latino Cultural Center, where people of all backgrounds come to share stories of their families through songs, poetry and discussion. Now, Huezo is helping to organize this year’s event Sept. 21. The event is one of many playing a part in IU’s Hispanic Heritage Month celebration beginning Sept. 9. A variety of events that explore aspects of Hispanic and Latino culture via celebrations will take place through Oct. 21 for Hispanic Heritage Month. Huezo said the event is like adult show and tell. People bring songs, stories and sometimes objects such as blankets and use them to talk about their families and backgrounds. “My first year here, I went to this event and it was a cool way of getting to know people,” Huezo said. “We get to know each other through stories, through our family histories. We get to know them more than the superficial way.” The event is open to
everyone, even people who don’t come from a Latino or Hispanic background, and Huezo said it often ends up being an identity discussion. Nuestras Raises is one of more than 30 programs offered throughout Hispanic Heritage month at IU. One featured program includes a presentation from Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera on Sept. 30. “I’m excited to hear a poet and see a couple films,” Casillas said. “I get to sit down with families and hear stories. That’s how it should be, that we expose ourselves to a variety of topics.” Different events throughout the month include discussions about films, poetry, a festival and storytelling. There is also an event hosted by the Latino Graduate Student Association to help undergraduate students apply for graduate school. “I think it’s important that we celebrate all different kinds of cultures,” Casillas said. “The population is growing and there’s lots of misconceptions. If we are really going to create a community as a whole we really need understand each other. The light is on us to encourage folks to get to know some aspects of the Latino community.”

Community members wait for the showing of “Time Bandits” to start during Movies in the Parks on Aug. 21, 2015, at Bryan Park. Bryan Park is one of the locations part of the new city and police initative for increased camera surveillance to cut down on city crime.
New cameras to monitor crime in parks By Dominick Jean drjean@indiana.edu | @Domino_Jean
In the past four months, there have been as many as 17 crimes, many of them thefts, that have occurred close to the public parks and trails in Bloomington. This does not include the numerous calls and reports that the Bloomington Police Department receive each week that do not become cases. Seminary, Bryan and Peoples parks as well as the B-Line Trail are all a part of a new city and police initiative for increased camera surveillance in order to cut down on crime in the city. These locations are areas with high populations of homeless people camping or living there. These locations are soon going to be monitored with new cameras by Bloomington police as community service groups and programs, such as the Shalom Community Center and the Monroe County Public Library, work with the homeless to get them better access to resources and into permanent housing. Mayor John Hamilton said in August the cameras would be a “pilot effort” to
deter criminal activity. “They will not be monitored live, but it is intended they will prove a deterrent, and also a tool for enforcement if needed.” Hamilton said. Those areas are places where a number of homeless spend much of their days and nights. These locations come up often on police calls for a number of crimes, but mostly theft, BPD Capt. Steve Kellams said. A crime map of Bloomington, which is available through the City of Bloomington website for free, indicates that just within a few blocks of the parks and in the parks themselves almost a dozen thefts have occurred since May. Two agencies that play separate roles are the Monroe County Public Library and the Shalom Community Center in Bloomington. “We’re a welcome place for all people,” said Marilyn Wood, director of MCPL. “Anyone can come in and make use of our services. While the cameras are designed to deter or solve crimes that occur in those areas, there are other city and community services available that are working to in-
form and assist the homeless population.” Wood said the library has a number of resources and directories that are made available to anyone. The library houses directories to both city and community social services, and Wood said the employees of the library are there to assist with gathering information without judging those who are requesting it. The Shalom Community Center is different in that it assists homeless in the community and works to get them housed at least temporarily in their overnight shelter, A Friend’s Place, and then later permanently through their Rapid Rehousing Program. The Rapid Re-housing Program helps to pay rent, moving fees, security deposits and other financial burdens for those seeking housing. This gets homeless people off the streets and works to make everyone safer, similar to the goal of the new cameras. The most recent crime in an area with high homeless populations occurred in Seminary Park when a woman, who was homeless, had $30 stolen from her bra

as she slept. The thefts occur not only to residents but also to members of the homeless population. It remains to be seen if the cameras will help deter crime in the first place. Kellams said electronic surveillance has been very helpful in solving crimes after the fact and until they are installed it’s impossible to determine their full effect. The city is working through BPD with funding for the new cameras, while the money for the Rapid Re-housing Program is acquired through the state and federal levels and then used by the Center to assist those with getting their own housing. “Homelessness is a huge problem,” Forrest Gilmore, the executive director at the Shalom Community Center, said. “It’s a national problem that we experience locally.” Gilmore also said they have two case workers who go out to known areas where people camp or live and try
to get them better access to federal and state resources. These areas include Seminary, Bryan and Peoples parks. “It really works,” Gilmore said. A large amount of those they help have some access to aid, but there is also another portion which has no access. The center tries to help both groups. Gilmore said that at the center they are attempting to do more than just manage homelessness. “I think our housing focus is the right way to go,” Gilmore said. “Not just trying to manage homelessness, but ending homelessness.” The new cameras to be installed will be of help for the homeless, but the cameras are more focused on managing the issue of crime. And even then, Kellams said he was unsure of how effective the cameras would be in the long run. “The thought of having something there is better than nothing,” Kellams said.
The City of Bloomington Commission on the Status of Children and Youth is seeking nominations for the second annual SWAGGER Awards. SWAGGER stands for Students Who Act Generously, Grow and Earn Respect Nomination forms will be available online beginning Sept. 14 through Oct. 14, according to a City of Bloomington press release. The purpose of the SWAGGER Awards is to honor youth who have a commitment to certain causes or have displayed actions that have improved their lives and/or the lives of others around them. Nominees can be recognized by their peers, mentors, parents, friends, clergy and educators, according to the release. This award is open to students who live or attend school in the Monroe County Community School Corporation. Award categories are kindergarten through third grade, fourth through sixth grade, seventh through eighth grade and ninth through 12th grade. Mayor John Hamilton will present the awards to four students at a ceremony 6:00 p.m. Nov. 15, 2016 in the City Hall Atrium, 401 N. Morton St. The purpose of the Commission on the Status of Children and Youth is to promote connections in our community which empower, enhance and nurture children and youth. The Commission will access resources and information to make recommendations to people and organizations with authority to create and support systems that encourage healthy development of children and youth, according to the release. Members of the commission should be representative of low income, community and social services for children and youth server providers. Alyson Malinger
Promoting adoption with Pet Appreciation Week By Alyson Malinger afmaling@indiana.edu | @aly_mali
Pet owners and hopeful pet owners alike are being searched out by the Tractor Supply Company store to help celebrate pets during Pet Appreciation Week. The main event Sept. 17 will include pet adoptions with community groups, samples, giveaways, drawings for gift cards and other family friendly activities, according to a Tractor Supply Co press release. “Our store is so close-knit to the community and we want a way to give back to it,” said Michele Daniels, coordinator of the event this year. This is Daniels’ first year coordinating the event, but she said she is excited for the anticipated turnout and interaction with the animals. Deals on pet products, from food and treats to toys and crates, will be featured from Sept. 14-18, during the span of the celebration week. “Pet Appreciation Week is a time when our love for animals really shines,” Alita Wilcoxen, manager of the Bloomington Tractor Supply store, said in the release. “It’s an opportunity for us to celebrate the love of pets, find great homes for local adoptable animals and showcase the community partners and rescues who care for these animals year round.” Several activities will take place during the main event including live music, a dog

Bill Nye returns to TV In its latest revival of a ‘90s craze, Netflix brings back a youth icon As college students, chances are you’ve heard of Bill Nye the Science Guy. We grew up watching and learning from Nye, and now our dreams are finally coming true once more: he is returning to the screen via Netflix to star in a brandnew show, “Bill Nye Saves the World.” But will it live up to our expectations? Will Nye be the same bow-tied man we came to love and adore as children? The newest trend on Netflix is capitalizing on is the revival of old shows from our generation’s childhood: the nineties. We saw “Fuller House” explode and take the country by storm, so now it’s only suitable for our favorite scientist to do the same. Nye’s show will be aimed towards our generation, which is more than exciting if you ask us. We remember singing along to “Bill Nye
the Science Guy” in junior high and elementary school, and now that he’s back, we couldn’t be more thrilled. That being said, Bill Nye never left the scene. In fact, he’s been following our age group through the years. Now he speaks at colleges around the country, making studying science seem more achievable and accessible than ever before. However, we’re a little concerned that the Netflix show will be a let-down. Let’s face it, popular though it was, “Fuller House” didn’t live up the standards that “Full House” left us. Will this Bill Nye series have the same fate, or will it forever live on in our minds? Hopefully, the new show will meet, if not exceed, our expectations. Nye has never had a scandalous article written about him, and he is one of the more wholesome celebrities in the age of Bill Cosby.
We have high hopes that Nye will succeed in his new venture. Nye graced the stage on Dancing with the Stars in 2013 and the crowds went wild for him. The Science Guy has not been left in the dust by newcomers and won’t be forgotten once his Netflix show debuts. Nye’s show is thankfully geared towards Millennials. It’s not just about tadpoles and pretty stars anymore. The show is going to speak to evolution, global warming and vaccines, along with different theories that aren’t always talked about in casual conversation. But when the conversation is with the Science Guy himself, no one is going to turn him away or ignore what he has to say. Our parents aren’t going to be standing over our shoulders telling us what to believe anymore. Now we have sci-
ence and one of the most capable people to explain it to us. Netflix itself has been changing throughout the years as well. In order to keep viewers engaged, it has developed its own original series and is taking the world by storm. Netflix already has 81.5 million users internationally, many of them Millennials, and the number just keeps growing. Because of this, we can predict that the new show will garner plenty of viewers. Since Netflix and other streaming services have so many subscribers, they’re bound to eventually take over the television realm within the upcoming years, so don’t be alarmed when cable is no longer a thing. Netflix will be there to save the day, and Bill Nye will be steering his spaceship into uncharted territory with us as his copilots.
GETTING IN THE GROOVE
Media blackout on Dakota Access needs to stop I’d like to think of myself as someone who is fairly in touch with current events. I hate not being able to respond, “Yeah, I have,” when someone asks, “Hey, have you heard about (insert current event here)?” So I was slightly taken aback when, in my political science class on indigenous and ethnic minority rights, the Dakota Access Pipeline controversy was broached. I had never heard of it before. Dakota? Which one — North or South? Pipeline? Fast-forward to a few weeks later and I still haven’t seen the issue crop up much in the news. Granted, I’m not glued to a television network or news site 24/7, but I don’t think I should have to be, especially considering the gravity of this situation. According to CNN, an Energy Transfer Crude Oil subsidiary, Dakota Access, has been constructing an underground oil pipeline spanning from northwestern North Dakota to southern Illinois since July. The proposed pipeline would pump about 470,000 barrels of oil every day.
Editors Jessica Karl & Daniel Kilcullen opinion@idsnews.com
Proponents of the pipeline claim that it will help reduce the United States’ reliance on foreign oil, boost North Dakota’s economy and create between 8,000 to 12,000 jobs. They also assert that, environmentally, pipelines are the best way to transport oil. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe sued the federal government over the pipeline and want an injunction halting the work on the project. According to the complaint the group filed in federal court, the pipeline will “damage and destroy sites of great historic, religious and cultural significance to the Tribe.” Opponents have been peacefully protesting the pipeline at construction sites in North Dakota. Environmental groups oppose the pipeline, too. Greenpeace and the Sierra Club are two of them. This really should not be a controversy, because the conflict never should have arisen in the first place. The government never should have given Dakota Access a green light on the project, because it infringes upon
the ancestral lands of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. This disregard for Native American lands is just another example of the apathy our government — and, by extension, our nation — harbors towards Native Americans as a whole. As it happens, the media falls under that realm. This story is worthy of news coverage. It’s a fight for justice (something we’ve seen a lot of lately with the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement) and an environmental rights controversy. Yet it’s receiving very little coverage. So what gives? Well, Counter Current News has a theory, and it’s a bleak one at that. In an editorial published on their website, they concluded that the pipeline controversy and protests have not received proper media coverage because the issue isn’t polarizing — that is, it “just doesn’t fit the script of deep, societal divides plaguing the nation’s law and order, nor does it fit in with the leftright paradigm.” Their prognosis makes sense. Most people can agree that Native Ameri-

cans have been wronged deeply in our country’s past. There’s nothing to the issue that will pit liberals and conservatives against each other, which is driving so many narratives in the media as the general election approaches. As a result, it doesn’t create the drama and conflict like in so many of this year’s big news stories like Donald Trump’s rise or the death of Cincinnati Zoo gorilla Harambe. Instead, it’s the same old, same old narrative – indigenous peoples fighting for their rights. This same old, same old narrative is a worthy one, though, and deserves recognition and support. This country already has a mile-high pile of injustices committed against Native Americans. Let’s not add to it by ignoring the one that’s in the works. acgroove@indiana.edu

One of my first college classes listed a textbook that costed $200. Now, as a younger sister to a recent college graduate, I knew that I shouldn’t buy textbooks at the campus bookstore. I searched TIS, Amazon and eBay. Yet every book was listed as being upwards of $200. I checked it again, and then I realized that my cheapest option was to buy a paperback copy that still cost almost the full price listed at the bookstore. It wasn’t until I got to class that I realized that the reason why my textbook was so expensive was because the purchase included a 10-digit access code that I needed to do eight homework assignments during the semester. One of the best things about physical textbooks is that it’s possible to resell them after one use. I have had classes in biology, Spanish and business where I was easily able to find the same books that I needed for much less than the sticker price. This is important for multiple reasons, but mostly because for a lot college students, money is an issue. Almost none of my friends buy books for full price. Additionally, most students don’t have the ability to pay for brand new books. Textbook costs have risen 82 percent in the past decade. Many companies like McGraw-Hill and Pearson offer some forms of online access codes that provide access to e-texts and homework assignments. Now, as much as I complain, I love learning and don’t mind having homework. What I don’t like is paying upwards of $100 to do eight assignments per semester, nor do I like not being able to sell back an access code after I finish the class. The world is moving to e-

books and e-textbooks. That’s fine. It’s also fine that professors in large lecture classes assign homework online in order to grade in a quicker and more efficient manner. However, the cost of these access codes is prohibitive to students who can’t afford it. With a physical textbook, there are cheaper options: renting a book, borrowing it or even buying it used. With an access code, especially one that is needed to complete a homework assignment, students may be forced to choose between academic success and basic human needs, like food or rent. Are access codes the way of the future? From my experiences in college, it may just be limited to introductory classes where the number of students makes it difficult for a professor to grade them efficiently. However, I think that having to pay to finish homework makes students face choosing between academic success and paying for other costs that occur in their lives. Moreover, it is a waste of money for student to pay so much to complete a few homework assignments in one semester. One of the best things about the textbook market is cheaper books. This means that paying for at least one aspect of college can be cheap. Access codes can’t be resold. It prevents students from choosing an option that makes financial sense for themselves. This is something that professors should all think about when assigning books. npatwari@indiana.edu
MULLING IT OVER WITH MERM
Demonitized YouTube ads anger users YouTube is one of the most frequented websites in America. It’s almost baffling how many people find success by making videos and then posting them on YouTube. Five years ago, I would have never believed someone who told me they made money by recording themselves playing video games. Now, it’s a legitimate way to earn income. However, the way they are earning money is not from making videos. YouTube is not the company paying these people. They earn money through how many times an ad is viewed on their videos. This is where YouTube’s latest policy change comes into effect — and it’s done rightfully so. YouTube is no longer monetizing ads that are placed on videos that include the following: sexually suggestive content, violence, inappropriate language, promotion of drugs and the discussion of war or other sensitive subjects. These topics happen to be the subjects of many videos on YouTube from famous video makers. Turns out, according to a YouTube spokesperson, these are not new policies and have been in place ever since YouTube decided to allow ads to be monetized. The only new aspect of this situation is YouTube is now enforcing these regulations with a notification system. YouTubers learned of these policies the hard way. Suddenly, they were having their ads taken off of the videos or they were no longer being paid for the ad views. In the past, YouTubers would have to go to the page that shows the analytical information about each individual video to learn if their ads were safe. Now, YouTubers receive an email each time videos are demonetized. It’s good that YouTube is

finally notifying each video maker when they take the money away. Imagine expecting a paycheck to come through when in fact, they were no longer being paid because of something they said the other day. Real companies have to notify their employees when they aren’t getting paid. In other terms, it’s called being fired. This type of business is different, though, so it makes the notification system a bit trickier. I agree that some videos are not ad-friendly. It’s not appropriate to advertise on videos that have sexual content or strong vulgar language, but some YouTubers are making videos that have thought-provoking ideas. Some people rely on YouTube to detail certain subjects like politics or war. Yes, there are news websites and actual newspapers, but people like these YouTubers because they say what they want to hear. A lot of these YouTubers quit their jobs to become “YouTube famous,” which isn’t an excuse or a reason to remove these policies, but it is understandable why they are angry with YouTube. A large group of them are going so far as to claim that these policies are a form of censorship. To be fair, many companies won’t place their ads on controversial subjects. Disney wouldn’t place an ad in a Playboy Magazine. The same principle applies to online videos. I believe YouTube is trying to make their platform more user-friendly, even if it is at the expense of video makers and their dependence on the ads. mmgarbac@indiana.edu

FOOTBALL
Inexperienced defensive line holds its own By Taylor Lehman trlehman@indiana.edu @TaylorRLehman
There is no waiver wire in college football. That’s what IU defensive line coach Mark Hagen said about losing players at the position. A school can’t sign players that aren’t affiliated with another team. It has to develop from the inside — something IU Coach Kevin Wilson has emphasized since becoming head coach in 2011. So when IU Athletics announced the one-week suspension of senior defensive tackle Ralph Green III, and
junior defensive lineman Robert McCray was declared unable to play due to injury, Hagen knew he would need some depth on the line last Thursday against Florida International. That’s exactly what he got. Eleven players played on the defensive line — six of them had never played a snap of collegiate football — and the IU still held FIU to 70 yards rushing. “I think it was a good start,” Hagen said. “It wasn’t perfect, but there was a lot more positive than negative. We left a good chunk of plays out there that we could have had, but I thought our guys played hard
for the most part.” Replacing Green was the biggest question mark when the suspensions were announced The Hoosiers had already lost Nick Mangieri, Zack Shaw and Darius Latham to graduation and the NFL. Green was the only starter left from the 2015 defensive line. That’s when junior Patrick Dougherty got his first start as a Hoosier at defensive tackle, earning what Wilson called a “championship performance.” Dougherty didn’t find his name on the stat sheet, but Wilson and Hagen both sang his praises for fighting for a position in the
trenches and forcing FIU’s first-half safety by drawing a holding call on an FIU guard. Other than Dougherty, Hagen said no other player caught his eye during the FIU game, though the defensive line played well. Junior defensive lineman Nate Hoff finished with three tackles. Sophomore Nile Sykes recorded his first career sack, freshman Omari Stringer recorded two tackles — including one for a loss — and sophomores Mike Barwick and Ja’merez Bowen recorded their first career tackles. Sophomore Jacob Robinson, who plays defensive tackle and defensive end, had one
tackle against FIU. The defensive lineman said while the team played well, he wasn’t happy with his performance. “I wasn’t very satisfied,” Robinson said. “I thought I left a lot on the table. I take pride in playing hard, and I think I played hard. As a group collectively, we played extremely hard. I think that was great, but I wasn’t satisfied with how that first week went.” Hagen and defensive coordinator Tom Allen feel the same way about the defense as a whole — that it got away without playing its best despite two interceptions returned for touchdowns and a forced safety.
GOTT TAKES
Hagen said it was sobering to consider the defense wasn’t at its best, but to get it to its best he needs to continue to provide more reps for second, third and fourth string players in order to find the right rotation for the defensive line. Allen said he supports Hagen’s methods and is encouraged by the effort he’s seen on the defensive line so far. “Another thing that excited me was that we really didn’t play that well in my opinion,” Allen said about the entire defense. “We made a lot of mistakes, and we made big plays, critical plays. We have a lot of areas to improve on and we will.”

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick greets teammates after taking a knee during the national anthem before a game Sept. 1. in San Diego.
Time to acknowledge the issues Kaepernick is ‘standing’ for The NFL season begins with an epic Super Bowl rematch between the Denver Broncos and Carolina Panthers. Odds are one team will win and the other team will lose, unless there is a tie. Wings will be eaten, bets will be wagered and expletives will be uttered. The NFL is a behemoth. It owns a day of the week and will eventually petition the United States to create an eighth day just so it can own that one, too. This is all well and good, but somehow, the start to football isn’t nearly as important as the backup quarterback of the putrid San
Francisco 49ers. By now, you probably have heard about Colin Kaepernick, the man sitting during the national anthem in order to start a discussion on the violence and systemic racism inherent to the U.S. “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color,” Kaepernick told NFL Media. “To me, this is bigger than football and it would be selfish on my part to look the other way. There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”
Of course, in today’s media landscape everyone has a take, from fellow athletes to news pundits to politicians, including cartoon villain Donald Trump. There seem to be two camps: those hallowing and those vilifying the quarterback, when, honestly, Kaepernick isn’t what truly matters here. In the age of 24/7 sports coverage and crying Michael Jordan memes, it seems the message to any public stand is often forgotten; it’s the person and what they’re doing to create this uproar that garners the attention.
The real story here is that a player — doesn’t matter who — is speaking out against a public crisis and we should now discuss the problem. Kaepernick will continue to sit during the anthem — as he has every right to do — but instead of focusing on him, we should instead be discussing ways to fix the discrimination and xenophobia that plagues us. In this case, and many others, it’s not about the method but the message. Kaepernick is a pioneer and role model to many. His name has now topped the NFL jersey sales, and

quite a few other athletes — including other NFL players and women’s soccer star Megan Rapinoe — are following in the 49er’s footsteps. There’s now a conversation about black lives and how they matter on perhaps the biggest stage in America. Colin Kaepernick has done his job. It’s now up to the rest of us to continue his dialogue and work toward a more perfect union. gigottfr@umail.iu.edu

Tom Crean isn’t just a positive influence on his players I never necessarily thought of Tom Crean as an insightful man. I do follow sports, I have for years — hence my position as sports columnist — but I always thought of all coaches as the same. “Sport win men! Play ball well!” Perhaps I’m over-exaggerating. But if you arrange those words into a real sentence with a subject and a verb, you’ve got a pretty typical presser response. So when I’m doing my usual browse of iuhoosiers.com and the headline “Coach Crean Gives Speech at IU Police Academy Graduation,” comes up, I’m thinking, “Oh, this’ll be good.” It was. We’ve all sat through commencement addresses, keynote speeches at conferences, speeches from someone of vague importance at leadership retreats. After a while, all those speeches tend to blend into one trite message: believe in yourself, and nothing can stop you. OK, well, believing I can have all A’s and be a national champion bowler hasn’t gotten me that far, so try again.
Crean, thankfully, doesn’t tell the graduates of the police academy verbatim to believe in themselves. He encourages them to continue pursuing their passions and not to let anyone get in the way. As someone who considers changing majors weekly, that really said something to me. If you’ve made it through four years at IU without once reconsidering your major or actually changing it, good for you. But a lot of us reach the point where we just can’t know for sure if what we’re doing is really right for us. And when one professor says one thing that’s slightly negative, those self-defense sirens in our head scream, “Danger! Get out while you still can!” We forget our passions because we were at one time told we weren’t good enough, or that we won’t get a job, or that we can’t handle it. Tom Crean, though. Tom Crean believes in us. OK. Maybe he only believes in the new IUPD officers. But his points still stand, and many of us really, truly need that positivity

in our lives. Crean believed in himself enough to take himself from an admittedly mediocre high basketball player in Mount Pleasant, Michigan, to a Top-25 level college basketball coach at IU. He had nearly zero background to be where is, and now Crean is one of only a handful of Division I coaches who didn’t play college basketball.
Of course, Crean used his ability to name-drop some people who he casually texted to get inspirational quotes from — an LAPD captain from the Hollywood division, Indianapolis Colts Coach Chuck Pagano and Crean’s brothers-in-law John and Jim Harbaugh, coaches of the Baltimore Ravens and University of Michigan football, respectively. Cre-
an was even able to swing a message from Gov. Mike Pence. But he also made sure to tell the audience of new policemen and policewomen what he thought were two crucial bits of advice: to understand what they can and can’t control, and to not forget to breathe. A year ago, before I came to realize my true Indiana self and before I had even watched a basketball game, I would have laughed at my current self. Writing about a basketball coach who says inspiring things? Good one. But maybe I’ve finally cracked the code of how to be the Big Ten Coach of the Year — inflate your players with positivity. (The whole inflating thing is his terminology, not mine.) Crean might not pen the next great American novel anytime soon, with his 3,500+ word speech that honestly could have been about 1,500, but he might want to look into the selfhelp book industry after retirement. jzega@umail.iu.edu
Sophomore goalie and German national Noëlle Rother is willing to sacrifice a lot of time and energy for both her country and IU. IU’s Big Ten Tournament schedule and that of the German U-21 national team come close to overlapping, but the available time is enough that Rother can travel and participate in both. “I would not actually miss the Big Ten tournament,” Rother said. “If Germany makes the final I would have to travel here the Monday before. There is a way of doing both, it is like stressful but it is possible.” It’s good news for the Hoosiers, as Rother has established herself as one of the most important defensive players on the squad. Once IU’s season finishes, however, Rother will still be going strong. Her German team will continue to play until late November as a part of the world championships. Rother’s time with the U-21 team won’t be her first national experience, as she played with the U-16 team for two years. “It is always exciting to play at the international level and also to play with players you usually play against,” Rother said. “Forwards who usually try to score on you suddenly are your teammates, like this is the fun part of it, it is a good level and you learn a lot from it.” Rother has learned a lot from her German coaches and her experiences on the national team, but admits she’s learned important lessons from her IU experience, too. “I grew up in Germany, learned my field hockey there,” Rother said. “But here I have learned about being an athlete, being part of a team. Here I have grown as a person.” Rother said she was impressed by the size of IU’s facilities the first time she visited Bloomington, as it would be impossible to find an equal among German universities. Now, after a year in the states, she also includes the dual importance IU places on academics and athletics. In Germany, Rother said, you could either be completely immersed in your academics or your sport, not both. The term “student-athlete” is very rare or nonexistent. Today, Rother looks for ways to keep a balance between her academics, Germany and IU. Her favorite thing about being a Hoosier is the support she gets from coaches and advisors to perform well. “I will try to combine everything. You can not be a perfect student, a perfect IU player and a perfect national team player,” Rother said. “You have to focus in one or two things from each, you can not exceed in all of them.” As IU’s season progresses, Rother is excited to see the Hoosiers achieve their objectives. “We had a good season last year so we should try to repeat it, we used to be an underdog,” Rother says. “Now people do not underestimate us, I hope we can prove it was not luck but quality of our team.”

But, since she’s been back, Beerman’s collected the third-most kills with 85, the 10th-best hitting percentage among qualified players and the best hitting percentage among freshmen in the Big Ten. “Kendall leaned out, got stronger, got faster and is probably playing her best volleyball,” IU Coach Sherry Dunbar-Kruzan said. “You never want someone to get injured, but if they take it the right way and have the right attitude then it could be a real benefit to their performance.” The playmaker has served a crucial role in the Hoosiers’ 7-0 start this season. Although, the success hasn’t come without growing pains. Beerman said she felt nervous all of last year because she couldn’t fall to her left or jump the same and didn’t feel confident moving around. But, she was able to work through it. “I know what I’m capable of now,” Beerman said. “I thought I was fast and strong in high school, but then after a whole year (of rehab), I’m better.

Redshirting was the best decision I’ve made. Last season, I was on the outside looking in, so I had nothing to do but be a good practice player and be my teammates’ biggest supporter.” Dunbar-Kruzan said the freshman’s mentality has improved as she learned how hard one has to work at this level. “Kendall has a great attitude about life,” DunbarKruzan said. “She’s not a defensive person and she wants to be good. If you tell her to do something she’s going to do it. She understands the game really well and she is able to do things with the ball that other players physically can’t do.” The coach continuously praises Beerman’s confidence and knowledge on the court, which feeds into the outside hitter’s new mantra: “Always be aggressive, always be confident, always be positive and have a short memory with anything that happens in a game and in life.” as well as songs by other composers including Maurice Ravel and Jules Massenet.

STAR SWAP While this season’s “Dancing with the Stars” cast is already set and ready to groove for this Monday’s premiere, here are a few faces of 2016 we would’ve liked to see compete for the mirror ball trophy.
BOOMER PHELPS
HOT SAUCE
LESLIE JONES
Though we’re happy to see Laurie Hernandez take her gymnastics artistry to the dance floor, we have another “Olympian” in mind — not Michael Phelps, but his absurdly cute son Boomer. Sure, he may struggle with the choreography more than the other contestants, but what he lacks in object permanence he’ll make up for in adorableness.
The star of Beyoncé’s visual album busted windshields, fire hydrants and security cameras, and looked fierce the whole time. When it comes to tearing up the dance floor, we know just the tool for the job.
Despite a turn in “Ghostbusters” and a fan-favorite appearance at the Rio Olympics, Leslie Jones has spent much of this year dealing with social media abuse and death threats. The girl needs a break, and we’d love to see her show the haters a little black girl magic on the dance floor.
RYAN REYNOLDS
BLACK PHILIP
ANGELICA SCHUYLER
The blockbuster smash that was “Deadpool” proved that Ryan Reynolds has enough charisma to make 10 franchises successful. Plus, DWTS needs contestants with great personalities this season to compensate for Rick Perry.
This goat was Satan in disguise in the breakout horror film “The Witch.” He’s got a devilish charm that would work well with any dancer, and may even sway his partner to the dark side. Having Black Philip on DWTS would finally answer the question, “Wouldst thou like to dance deliciously?”
Rewind: Eliza may have stolen Alexander Hamilton’s heart, but in a dance competition, it would be satisfying to see the (oldest, wittiest) Schuyler sister take first place. You want a revolution? We want Renée Elise Goldsberry to hop stages for about a season. Work!

Donald Glover as Earnest Marks in “Atlanta.”
Black casts lead fall TV The end of summer means the end of mostly good things: sunshine, no school, warm weather ... you name it, we’ll miss it. But summer tends to be a wasteland for good television, and in that regard, we can’t wait for fall. This month in particular is exciting, mainly due to four much-hyped shows that bring a variety of complex black protagonists to our screens. First up is “Queen Sugar,” a cable drama produced by Actual Hollywood Queens Ava DuVernay and Oprah Winfrey that premiered Tuesday night on OWN. While the show itself is progressive in its own right — telling the story of a Southern black family dealing with
some serious family issues — DuVernay’s approach to the series has been even more groundbreaking. Going out of her way to assemble an all-female directing roster, DuVernary shot two of the 13 episodes herself and left the rest to the other seven female directors (mostly women of color.) Reviews for “Queen Sugar” have been mixed so far, but here’s to DuVernay for setting yet another example of much-needed inclusivity in Hollywood. Donald Glover’s “Atlanta” also premiered Tuesday night, airing its first two episodes in succession on FX. Glover combines his comedy roots (“Community”) with his hip-hop background (as rapper Childish Gambino),
creating what he has called an homage to “being black in America.” The show will deal with issues of black identity and cultural appropriation, especially within the world of rap. If you only pick one new show to watch this fall, make it “Atlanta.” Network TV is getting worse and worse these days, but of all the fall TV pilots, FOX’s “Pitch” seems worth a watch. Premiering Sept. 22, “Pitch” tells the story of the first woman to play Major League Baseball. Starring newcomer Kylie Bunbury as the Padres’ latest pitching acquisition, the show follows Ginny Baker as she deals with racism and sexism during her first MLB season. Finally, on Sept. 30, Mar-
vel’s “Luke Cage” hits Netflix in a big way. Mike Colter returns from his fan-favorite appearance on “Jessica Jones,” now starring in his own story. In a time where black men are shot on the street for little more than looking threatening in a sweatshirt, the image of Colter’s “hero in a hoodie” struck a chord with viewers of the show’s early trailers. Thanks to his impenetrable skin, Luke Cage can’t be shot and can’t be killed — by police or anyone else. He’s the hero Harlem needs, and we’re willing to bet the rest of the world could use his help right now too. Kate Halliwell khalliwe@umail.iu.edu @kate__halliwell
family loss. Accompanying this record is a new documentary about the making of “Skeleton Tree” called “One More Time with Feeling.” The film will also explore the philosophical musings of Cave following the death of his son. “Skeleton Tree” could be the most vulnerable album of Cave’s career. Regardless of whether it ends up being his best record, it will still be his most courageous. Austin Faulds afaulds@umail.iu.edu @a_faulds9615
M.I.A. drops fifth and final studio album tomorrow ‘AIM’ M.I.A. Friday, Sept. 9 There’s not a more gorgeously tragic sound than the swan song of a beloved artist. English hip-hop artist M.I.A. has confirmed that she will be gracing us with just that with her fifth and final LP “AIM,” set for release Friday. Since her debut release of “Arular” in 2005, M.I.A. has proven herself as one of the most talented and original female hip-hop artists in the mainstream scene. Her work tends to follow themes found in Hin-
duism and issues faced by Sri Lankan Tamils, Palestinians and African Americans. M.I.A. has been known to be vocal about these issues in the media and as a result, often faces criticism. Wanting her final album to be a happy one, M.I.A. has said this new album will be her most positive. As most music fans know, positivity is not something that has often meshed well with hip-hop. Let’s hope our reception of the conclusion is equally positive. Austin Faulds afaulds@umail.iu.edu @a_faulds9615

Sexploration panel to talk HIV and ‘Rent’ By Sanya Ali siali@indiana.edu | @siali13
The IU Health Center and the IU Auditorium will collaborate on the upcoming Sexploration panel discussion in anticipation for “Rent,” coming to the Auditorium on Sept. 12 through Sept. 14. “80 Seasons of Love: Rent and HIV Over 20 Years” brings together four panelists in discussion about how the conversation and prevention of HIV has evolved over the past 20 years at 1 p.m. Thursday in the IU Auditorium lobby. Emily Brinegar, coordinator of prevention services for IU Health Positive Link, Dr. Diana Ebling, medical director at the IU Health Center,
Terry LaBolt, musical director for IU’s Musical Theatre Program and William L. Yarber, professor of applied health science, will participate in this event, led by moderator Kathryn Brown, a health and sexuality educator at IU Health Center’s Health and Wellness Education Office. “The panel itself is important, an opportunity for reflection about some of the earlier days of the AIDS epidemic and how it’s changed,” Yarber said. “The panel represents a diversity of persons who are impacted by AIDS or involved in the treatment and prevention of AIDS. Each person can provide some unique perspectives.” One of those perspectives
comes from LaBolt, who is a survivor of the early epidemic. LaBolt said he lived in New York during the 1980s working as a Broadway conductor, and the city he lived in is also the setting for “Rent.” “Why I enjoy doing these talks all the time is I’m one of the few survivors who had AIDS at that time who didn’t pass away like lots and lots of my friends,” LaBolt said. “I sort of feel like it’s my job to tell about the history.” Most of the attending students were not yet born when the epidemic began, which is why informing them of the history is so important, Yarber said. “They may not have an appreciation of all the barriers
that were faced at the beginning, the stigma, the terrible treatment of gay individuals, lack of resources, also the inadequate treatment, the quick devastation and ending of lifespans that were very powerful tragedies for families and communities,” Yarber said. Yarber said students similarly might not have a clear idea of exactly how many advances have been made in treatment of HIV/AIDS over the last 20 years and the slow growth of a climate of empathy for homosexual individuals in this country. AIDS transcends the boundaries of a strictly health-based issue, crossing into areas of society, economics and law, Yarber said.
“It’s important to see the impact of AIDS beyond just the medical,” Yarber said. “There have been very few epidemics that only deal with the health outcomes. It impacts laws and perspectives about marginalized individuals, impacts perspectives about what permission people should receive, what young people are taught about prevention.” Ebling said furthering student knowledge is one of the strongest motivators for participating in the panel discussion. “I’m interested in bringing more awareness to HIV PreExposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) as one method of HIV risk reduction for high risk individu-
als,” Ebling said in an email. “I hope they leave with a greater awareness of HIV/AIDS and prevention and the services provided at the university and in the community.” LaBolt said he hopes students take away a sense of strength in times of difficulty, be that related to AIDS or other life events. “Every bad thing that happens to people is really an opportunity for growth,” LaBolt said. “If they come away knowing the importance of self worth, that can protect them from a lot of danger. When you look at challenges and bad events as an opportunity to grow when they happen to you, you become wiser.”
FAULDS IN OUR STARS
Transgender community reacts to Hollywood mistreatment A lot has changed in the world of cinema since its birth in the late 1870s. Cameras have better quality, acting is more personal and the rise of digital filmmaking allows for more pristine, quality films. Not all changes have been for the better, however. After almost 140 years of cinema, it’s still pretty much basic knowledge that Hollywood is dominated by young, white, straight cisgender males. Sure, films are far more politically correct now than in the past. But while blackface and yellowface have been obliterated, bigoted miscastings are still very much present. Some prominent miscastings of the past few years were for films geared toward the transgender community. Films like “The Danish Girl” and “Dallas Buyer’s Club,” while glorified by the Academy Awards, received backlash from the transgender community for refusing to cast transgender actors in transgender roles. The newest addition to this pattern is the upcoming film “Anything,” which has cisgender actor Matt Bomer cast as transgender woman. “Anything” producer Mark Ruffalo responded to the criticism through a series of tweets explaining why Bomer was cast in the part. He said the transgender community’s negative response to the casting was “wrenching.” Despite this, he said he is glad the community opened up this conversation. Since the film has already
been shot and Bomer tried so damn hard to do well, Ruffalo said we should cut them a break. “We are all learning,” Ruffalo said in a tweet. Really? All the complaints geared toward Eddie Redmayne and Jared Leto being cast in transgender roles weren’t enough? Maybe there’s just a Hollywood assumption transgender people can’t act. You know, like how apparently black people don’t want Oscars and the only way to determine a good actress is by how hard she can cry on camera. If all this wasn’t bad enough, there is an even more transphobic movie coming out soon called “(Re) Assignment.” The film stars Michelle Rodriguez as a man who is forced to go undergo gender reassignment surgery and then seeks revenge against the group that forced the surgery upon him. I wish I’m made that up. Honestly, the premise alone makes notoriously transphobic movies like “Silence of the Lambs” and “Dressed to Kill” look diplomatic in comparison. But what else could we expect? In the modern age of filmmaking, transphobia is the new racism. You might as well give them blackface. I would love to be the beacon of light in this situation and reassure you this ignorance will tide over soon and be fully resolved, but I’m afraid the future is rather bleak. Minorities are just as se-

verely unrepresented as ever, and when they are represented, they fall back into their standard silver-screen stereotypes. It’s why actors like Leslie Jones, Samuel L. Jackson
and Lucy Liu are essentially cast in the same roles in every one of their movies. Even well-intentioned audience members still don’t fully comprehend why casting
non-transgender actors is a move in the wrong direction. The misperception that transgender women are merely men who identify as women is still ingrained in so
many people’s heads, which has led to miscastings like Bomer’s. But honestly, casting a man in these roles would be the same as casting a man to play a woman’s role. It’s absurd and just plain insulting. However, we can’t rule out the possibility of transgender actors and filmmakers eventually becoming a part of Hollywood cinema. Laverne Cox from “Orange is the New Black” became the first openly transgender woman to be nominated for a Primetime Emmy award, as well as the first openly transgender woman to be nominated for an Emmy since 1990. The 2015 comedy-drama “Tangerine,” starring transgender actresses, received great praise and premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. We also can’t forget that Lana and Lilly Wachowski, probably the greatest filmmaking pair of contemporary cinema, are both transgender women. Jamie Clayton, one of the stars of their new series “Sense8,” is also transgender. So while they have yet to conquer mainstream cinema, the LGBT community still continues making some of the best underground films of the past three decades. Transgender filmmakers are the outlaws of cinema, and someday, like Jesse James and Billy the Kid, we will love them just as much. afaulds@umail.iu.edu

Painful performances save period drama ‘THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS’ Michael Fassbender, Alicia Vikander, Rachel Weisz
BIt would be easy to dismiss Derek Cianfrance’s “The Light Between Oceans” as the kind of movie only your mom’s book club would see with smuggled snacks and tissues in hand. On paper, it certainly reads that way: A lighthouse keeper and his young wife, after a series of miscarriages, find a baby washed up in a lifeboat and raise it as their own. Years later, the couple discovers that the child’s mother is alive and mourning her lost family, and they must face the consequences of their decision. Despite its deceptively Nicholas Sparks-ian disguise, Cianfrance’s adaptation is a fierce, sweeping drama that takes M.L. Stedman’s popular book and vastly improves upon it. Starring Hollywood power couple Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender, the film struggles with uneven pacing but ultimately packs a painful punch. To say “The Light Between Oceans” begins at a slow burn is the understatement of the year. We’re introduced to war veteran Tom Sherbourne as he applies for the position of lighthouse keeper on Janus, a remote island off the coast of western Australia. Haunted by the lives he took in the war, Tom is looking forward to some much needed solitude. But his plan hits a snag when he meets and falls in love with Vikander’s Isabel, who soon joins him on the island as his wife. Isabel is Tom’s foil in many ways — giddy where he is stoic, volatile where he is restrained, irrational where he is calculated — but
MOVIE STILLS DATABASE
Alicia Vikander and Michael Fassbender in “The Light Between Oceans.”
Cianfrance dedicates a good chunk of the film to showing how the couple complements each other. It’s when tragedy strikes, and Isabel has a string of miscarriages, that the balance between Tom and Isabel’s personalities begins to fall. “The Light Between Oceans” isn’t lacking in heartwrenching moments, but one scene in particular — Isabel’s second miscarriage — verges on the emotionally unbearable. Fortunately, the story takes a much needed turn soon after when the couple discovers a lifeboat, which carries a baby and her dead father. Tom goes against his better judgment and allows Isabel
to adopt the child, burying the body and claiming that the child is theirs. The story begins to twist and turn from that point on, and in the interest of preventing further spoilers, let’s just say that it gets ugly. Rachel Weisz takes a secondhalf turn as the child’s bereft biological mother, and her character’s backstory is one of the highlights of the uneven third act of the film. Cianfrance takes his sweet time with the first hour or so of the movie, but crams the climax of the story into an unfulfilling barrage of events. Audiences (even those who read the book) will likely be displeased with the final scene, although
they’ll still shed a tear or two. Despite the pacing problems and rough ending, the film is ultimately saved by its cast. Demonstrating once again why they’re the most talented couple in the business, Vikander and Fassbender elevate “The Light Between Oceans” from melodramatic sob-fest to elegant, aching period piece. To be fair, Cianfrance does his part too, harkening back to “Blue Valentine” techniques as the camera cuts from stark landscapes to painful closeups of his oftdesolate characters. While Fassbender’s performance is as solid as ever — no one does repressed agony quite like him — he
seems the teensiest bit miscast as the soft-spoken, morally sound lighthouse keeper. Towards the end of the film, as — SPOILER ALERT — Tom spends a few weeks rotting in jail, it’s hard to look at Fassbender and not feel the slightest bit like he might belong there. It would be easy to congratulate him for playing against type and leave it at that, if not for the pitch-perfect choice of Vikander as his leading lady. “Magnetic” is a term thrown around a bit too often when referring to impressive performances, but Vikander earns it yet again. Isabel, at times naïve and selfish, would be an easy character to hate if
done wrong, but Vikander grounds her in that strange limbo between child and mother. It’s hard to compete with Vikander’s naked emotion, but Weisz and Fassbender are almost equally formidable scene partners. Thanks to a range of committed, painful performances, “The Light Between Oceans” is a gorgeous, heartbreaking story that will hit a nerve with all audiences, parents and children alike. Next time Mom heads out to the movies with her book club, it might just be worth tagging along. Kate Halliwell khalliwe@umail.iu.edu @kate__halliwell

Navigating Bloomington’s sushi scene I’m not even going to pretend I’m a sushi connoisseur, but I can get down with a California roll. Whether you’re with me or against me, we are taking a tour of my favorite California roll providers in Bloomington. And if you’ve never tried sushi, I guarantee you a California roll or any vegetable roll is always a safe, delicious choice to get you started. When I first tried this out, I thought it would be all raw fish and salmonella, but quickly I learned this would not be the case. Many of the rolls were cooked and the menus even told me so. With this in mind, I’m sending you to my favorite places — all my favorites because they’ve continued to take pity on me and my uncultured self. Ami is located on Third Street and is always my first choice when going out for sushi. With a wide menu, including fried rice for those looking for a safe choice when your friend suggests going out for sushi, Ami does not disappoint — ever. The spicy mayo option on Ami’s California roll is literally the greatest thing I’ve ever tasted, and it instantly made me a sushi convert. Each roll is served with a salad and miso soup, both of which will prepare your palate for all the flavors you may be about to enjoy. Ami is reasonably priced and the best place to go if you are trying sushi for the first
