SUMMARY:Line Breaks Festival at Memorial Union and A Room of One's Own
DESCRIPTION:The annual Line Breaks Festival offers an ever-shifting testament to the bold visions of the students in UW-Madison’s First Wave program. Rooted in hip-hop and spoken-word\, First Wave attracts artists who tend to mix together all sorts of disciplines\, from theater to dance to fashion to visual art. As a result\, the alumni who’ve come through the program since it launched in 2007 cover extensive ground: Poet Danez Smith\, Black Arts Matter Festival founder Shasparay Irvin\, writer/musician Hiwot Adilow\, dancer/rapper/filmmaker James Gavins\, blisteringly focused MCs like Defcee and CRASHprez\, and that’s barely scratching the surface. \nThe Line Breaks schedule is a bit different each time out\, but you can always count on showcases of multiple works from current First Wave students\, alums\, and some exciting guests. Visiting this year from Chicago is poet and scholar Eve L. Ewing\, whose published works include the poetry/visual art collection Electric Arches and the nonfiction book Ghosts In The Schoolyard\, which examines the decimation of Chicago’s south-side public schools under the mayoral administration of Rahm Emanuel. Another can’t-miss guest this year is Chicago singer-songwriter\, poet\, and playwright Jamila Woods—if you haven’t heard her expansive take on R&B on 2019’s LEGACY! LEGACY!\, do yourself a kindness and catch up. \nRegistration is already full for a March 30 talk with Ewing and poet/UW-Madison professor Paul Tran at A Room of One’s Own—but you can still register for the waitlist. Either way\, don’t fret: The real heart of Line Breaks is the performance showcases\, taking place this year on March 31 and April 1\, both nights at 6 p.m. in the Union Theater. Across these two nights\, performers will include Diya Abbas\, Azura Tyabji\, Jackson Neal\, Shasparay Irvin\, Nate Marshall\, Woods\, and Ewing\, among others. Trying to succinctly sum up just what you’ll be seeing here is beside the point. Instead\, just set aside any expectations and get ready to embrace a remarkably fertile overlap of words\, movement\, music\, narrative\, and the myriad ways they can be combined. \n—Scott Gordon \nIllustration by Shaysa Sidebottom.

SUMMARY:Wonder\, Weirdness And Writing About Animals at Goodman Community Center
DESCRIPTION:The first thing I did when I finished Sabrina Imbler’s new book was run to Room of One’s Own and buy a second copy to share with friends. The book\, How Far The Light Reaches\, explores what it means to be a human—specifically\, what it means to be a queer\, Asian-American human—through Imbler’s memories and the lives of 10 sea creatures. \nImbler—who currently works the “creature beat” for Defector\, combining deep scientific context with that publication’s spirit of zany obsession\, and has also published work in The New York Times\, Atlas Obscura\, and The Atlantic—is coming to UW-Madison in late March as the Sharon Dunwoody Science Journalist in Residence. On March 30 at 6:30 p.m.\, they will participate in a panel discussion at the Goodman Community Center titled “Wonder\, Weirdness And Writing About Animals.” Panelists will also include Stacy Forster\, from the UW-Madison School of Journalism and Mass Communication\, and Mary Magnuson\, a graduate student who studies urban canids like coyotes and foxes. \nImbler’s work brings us into the deep at the time we need it most. So many beautiful possibilities for our collective future depend upon humans’ ability to recognize that every part of our world is alive and worthy of protection and celebration. In their writing\, Imbler brings us face to face with mothering octopus arms reaching out to hold us\, gooey salps that dance in community\, feral goldfish that gobble up space when set free\, and shows us how magnificent we really are. \nIf the panel at the Goodman Center is half as good as How Far The Light Reaches\, everyone in attendance will leave transformed and ready to build expansive\, loving communities in Madison and beyond. \n—Sam Harrington
