There was no live theatre at all for the bulk of the time, and only now are things beginning again to rehearse, to develop, with first dates being set for live performances with live audiences again. But it is very true that as all things that hibernate go deep down into the earth to regenerate, the theatre community, our country, and the entire world have been in a profound period of reflection and re-assessment of our past, present, and future. Perhaps it is time to re-enter the world with all we have discovered about ourselves and our histories. Women artists and theatre professionals of all disciplines have been struggling and striving for parity, equity, diversity, and inclusion for so long, and it does seem like much of our world is ready for it, and that the theatre world will move forward with greater openness and respect for a wider range of voices and perspectives than we have ever known before. We are thrilled about that. We want to be theatre-makers in that world. LPTW is entering a new time as well. We are so grateful for the Officers and Board of Directors who have worked so hard over Zoom, email, and phone, from disparate places, at odd hours, to keep our member-driven organization vibrant and thriving throughout the entire shutdown of our industry. We are excited to see what the incoming 2021-22 group of Officers and Directors are able to accomplish in the year to come. With your engagement and support, we can accomplish anything. We also have a new website, with a new Member Portal that will, over time, house all of the activity and connectivity for our members. As we continue our outreach and collaboration with other organizations and our industry-salary research through our REDC grant, we are also trying to find new and exciting ways for our members to engage with each other and with LPTW. We so look forward to sharing theatre--and LPTW programs--with you in person this fall, and beyond ...

  • The New Yorker
    Kindle Edition, 2015 © The New Yorker COMMENT SEARCH AND RESCUE BY PHILIP GOUREVITCH On the evening of May 22, 1988, a hundred and ten Vietnamese men, women, and children huddled aboard a leaky forty-five-foot junk bound for Malaysia. For the price of an ounce of gold each—the traffickers’ fee for orchestrating the escape—they became boat people, joining the million or so others who had taken their chances on the South China Sea to flee Vietnam after the Communist takeover. No one knows how many of them died, but estimates rose as high as one in three. The group on the junk were told that their voyage would take four or five days, but on the third day the engine quit working. For the next two weeks, they drifted, while dozens of ships passed them by. They ran out of food and potable water, and some of them died. Then an American warship appeared, the U.S.S. Dubuque, under the command of Captain Alexander Balian, who stopped to inspect the boat and to give its occupants tinned meat, water, and a map. The rations didn’t last long. The nearest land was the Philippines, more than two hundred miles away, and it took eighteen days to get there. By then, only fifty-two of the boat people were left alive to tell how they had made it—by eating their dead shipmates. It was an extraordinary story, and it had an extraordinary consequence: Captain Balian, a much decorated Vietnam War veteran, was relieved of his command and court- martialled, for failing to offer adequate assistance to the passengers.

  • Downtrodden Yet Determined: Exploring the History Of
    DOWNTRODDEN YET DETERMINED: EXPLORING THE HISTORY OF BLACK MALES IN PROFESSIONAL BASKETBALL AND HOW THE PLAYERS ASSOCIATION ADDRESSES THEIR WELFARE A Dissertation by JUSTIN RYAN GARNER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, John N. Singer Committee Members, Natasha Brison Paul J. Batista Tommy J. Curry Head of Department, Melinda Sheffield-Moore May 2019 Major Subject: Kinesiology Copyright 2019 Justin R. Garner ABSTRACT Professional athletes are paid for their labor and it is often believed they have a weaker argument of exploitation. However, labor disputes in professional sports suggest athletes do not always receive fair compensation for their contributions to league and team success. Any professional athlete, regardless of their race, may claim to endure unjust wages relative to their fellow athlete peers, yet Black professional athletes’ history of exploitation inspires greater concerns. The purpose of this study was twofold: 1) to explore and trace the historical development of basketball in the United States (US) and the critical role Black males played in its growth and commercial development, and 2) to illuminate the perspectives and experiences of Black male professional basketball players concerning the role the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA) and National Basketball Retired Players Association (NBRPA), collectively considered as the Players Association for this study, played in their welfare and addressing issues of exploitation. While drawing from the conceptual framework of anti-colonial thought, an exploratory case study was employed in which in-depth interviews were conducted with a list of Black male professional basketball players who are members of the Players Association.
