Watch an epic sword fight in Pirates in the Airrrr!
By SOPHIE LOGHMAN
The Red & Black
Ahoy there Matey. Canopy Studio pres
ents an aerial show fit for trapeze, sword
fighting and pirate lovers.
Pirates in the Airrrr! consists of 13 com
pany members, all of which either current
ly attend the University or are alumni.
Audience members can look forward
to an enormous custom-made pirate ship,
a plank, high-in-the-air dance moves, an
epic sword fight and a lot of pirate gear.
“This, for us, is a chance for our com
pany to act a little sillier and play a little
bit," said Melissa Roberts, director of
Canopy. “It was a chance to let members
let their imaginations run wild.”
Roberts, along with author and trapeze
artist Mary Jessica Hammes, will co-direct
See your story in struggle for Civil Rights
By BECKY ATKINSON
The Red & Buck
This weekend, the Institute for
African American Studies will pres
ent a three-day symposium honoring
the civil rights movement and what
work is still being done in the area of
civil rights and social issues.
“[The symposium will] highlight
civil rights activism in
Georgia and across
the United States,”
said Derrick Alridge,
director of the
Institute for African
American Studies.
“We want to look
beyond [the civil
rights movement] and
look at civil rights
issues globally and in
the present.”
The symposium will start off with
a writing workshop for elementary
school students from Athens-Clarke
County led by poets and writers from
the University Creative Writing
Program.
“'lt’s so much fun to work with
young writers,” Ashley David, a PhD
student from the University Creative
Writing Program, said. “They’ll get to
imagine onto the page with facilita
tion by graduate students.”
The symposium will also end with
a selected group of these elementary
school students reading their work
alongside nationally recognized poets
during the closing event at Cine.
David looks forward to the sympo
sium because attendees will hear

from people who have helped change
the world to how it is today.
“It will discuss what has grown
out of the civil rights movement and
will discuss what issues are still being
faced today,” David said.
There will also be several panel
discussions during the symposium.
Barbara McCaskill, an associate
English professor at the University,
will be a moderator
for a panel discussion
with southwest
Georgia activists.
Panelists include
people who played
significant roles in
framing and carrying
out the Albany and
Americus Movements
in the early 19605. The
panel will discuss
their memories and how their work
has continued into the 21st century.
“All four [panelists] will be able to
talk about the central role that high
school and college-aged youth like
them played in pressing for social
change in their communities,”
McCaskill said. “These activists
exemplify how your age need not
impede the goal of making a differ
ence and doing good in your commu
nity wherever you live, whatever you
do, and in your lifetime.”
Associate history professor Chana
Kai Lee will participate in another
panel discussion that will talk about
civil rights across generations.
“We will start with a dialogue
about what the movement achieved
and then focus on contemporary

the show. Hammes wrote the script and
created the storyline for the show.
Hammes is no stranger to the studio.
She began taking classes in 2000 and was
a founding member of the Canopy reper
tory company. Friends at Canopy know
that she has always had an interest in
pirates, so Hammes was enthusiastic and
optimistic about writing the script.
The performers and Hammes got
together months ago and discussed sea
creatures, pirate characters and what
kind of equipment would be best for the
show. Hammes then created a story that
made sense and the company members
began producing dance moves that
reflected the narrative.
“Audiences can expect a very fun and
lively show,” Hammes said.
“Overwhelmingly, audiences will

problems that keep the U.S. from
realizing goals articulated by the civil
rights movement and other reform
efforts,” Lee said.
“I am looking forward to discuss
ing what happened after the civil
rights movement was considered
over. What happened to progressive
racial politics during the Reagan,
Bush and Clinton years, and what
should be the quality and scope of
our civic engagement during the
Obama years?”
Another panel discussion will talk
about “Beyond the Movement: Local
and Global Perspectives.”
The keynote speaker for the sym
posium will be Peniel Joseph, a histo
ry professor from Tufts University.
Joseph is also the premier scholar in
the country in the area of black
power. He will give a lecture on “Dark
Days, Bright Nights: From Black
Power to Barack Obama."
For those involved with organizing
and participating in the event, most
look forward to what students and
the community will learn from the
discussions on the civil rights move
ment and what is still happening
even after the movement is declared
over.
“Ultimately, I hope that students
gain an appreciation for how much
freedom costs to achieve and to
maintain, for African Americans and
for all people,” Lee said. “For those
who are unable to see their story in
what has been told as a largely
African-American story, perhaps this
event will inspire them to see and
learn otherwise.”
