sarita rising

I'm resuscitating this blog for several reasons. It's early May 2008, I've been out of college for a year, the Amanda Marcotta/BfP/Seal Press/WAM blogosphere explosion just happened, and I have a lot of thoughts to process. We'll see where it goes.

a day in the life

sarah lawrence is such a special place.

5:00pm-8:00pm, Heimbold Visual Arts Center
* nEO-jUDAICA: ART HAPPENING * VISUAL MANIFESTATIONS OF JEWISH IDENTITY AND SPIRITUALITY

7:00pm, Titsworth Lecture Hall
FOR ALL INTERESTED IN POLITICAL AND QUEER THEATER, lecture by Jennifer Miller, founder of Circus Amok, a New York City based queer, circus-theater company whose mission is to provide free public art addressing contemporary issues of social justice. The group has been together since 1989 bringing its funny, queer, caustic and sexy, political one-ring spectacles to diverse neighborhoods. Over the years the traditional circus techniques have been combined with dance, life-size puppetry, music old and new, and dramatic monologues creating new meanings for circus while continuing to entertain the crowds of all ages throughout the city streets, gardens, parks, and playgrounds.

9:00pm, Westlands South Lawn (by Pub)
ULTIMATE FRISBEE - NIGHT DISC. We play in front of the library when the world is soggy.

9:00 pm, Titsworth Lecture Hall
Come to a screening of "The Miami Model" tonight. In November, 2003, trade ministers from 34 countries met in Miami, Florida, to negotiate the Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). The FTAA threatens to devastate workers, the environment, and public services like health care, education, and water, and to destroy indigenous rights and cultural diversity across North, Central, and South America.Thousands of union members, environmentalists, feminists, anarchists, students, farm workers, media activists, and human rights activists who gathered in Miami to struggle against the FTAA were brutally attacked with rubber bullets, pepper spray, electric guns and shock batons, embedded reporters and information warfare, all coordinated by the new United States Department of Homeland Security.Collectively, Indymedia activists and friends shot hundreds of hours of video footage documenting the FTAA protests in Miami. This footage has been edited by the FTAA Miami Video Working Group into a documentary that cuts through the mass media blackout to reveal the brutal repression and assault on civil liberties that took place, as well as the life-affirming and inspiring alternatives to capitalist globalization that were also in full effect in Miami.


e-mail: (subject line "yoga house 05-06")
Hey everyone,
I am interesting in starting a new "Yoga House" theme for one of the houses on Mead Way. I have a couple of people interested and I was wondering if any of you want to jump in as well. I am hoping to arrange group classes in the city with a van as well other events. If you are interested please e-mail me at TSullivan@slc.edu
Peace,
-Tim

I believe it is my duty, as the resident immature guy, to point out that 'Titsworth' is a funny name. He he he. Worth.
