January 2010 A publication of the Academic Year in America Program Connections is a biannual newsletter comprised of memorable stories submitted by AYA students, host parents, and Local Coordinators across the USA. The articles and photos inside represent the unique cultural experiences enjoyed by AYA participants nationwide. New Orleans: Cruising Down the Mississippi By Emily Barberena Local Coordinator January 2010 Meridian, MS We spent the first weekend in December in New Orleans and we had a blast! We rode an old fashioned paddleboat (behind us in the picture) down the Mississippi River, walked through the Arts and French Quarter districts, ate beignets at “Cafe du Monde”, jambalaya, muffelatas, po’boys,(and much more!), walked the legendary Bourbon Street and saw many different kinds of regional music, like cajun, creole, jazz and blues, plus caught some bead in a haunted hotel (according to rumors-we are all fine!), shopped and necklaces from the balconies. We heard a jazz finished up with a trip to the Audobon Aquarium of the Americas and an and blues set at “Preservation Hall”, stayed IMAX film on Hurricane Katrina and the wetlands. China: A Host Parent’s Perspective We are the Stephenson-Skaff family living in Charleston, West Virginia. We started our adoption process in 2004 in anticipation of just having one child. Instantly we fell in love with the Chinese culture that has led us to adopting 2 additional daughters in December 2006 and April 2009. Our hearts led us to keeping the children’s heritage alive in their American life, so we have had the pleasure of hosting an exchange student from China, Wang BingYing through AYA. Her presence has completed our family unit, albeit for a year. Bing has started to share the Chinese culture with us as we have shared many of the American customs with her. The AYA experience is a rewarding one, their process is thorough and will bring world culture to any family who hosts these students of the world. The Stephenson-Skaff family Christmas photo is the centerpiece of their family calendar! Center: Bing Ying Wang from China Marina is pictured on the left with a fellow cheerleader.

On Saturday, October 17, eight students and one host sister embarked on “A Horse Adventure.” The students had the chance to learn to “tack” the horses (groom them and put on their saddle). They had a riding lesson in an arena and then went on a trail Let’s Go Tim! children some day. We have been going on ride in the beauty of the Fall Season.

  • To Grad, From
    To Grad, From Dad Daniel John On Friendship When I was in the eighth grade, I told my mom and dad that “basically” I knew the basics of life. I knew how to read, write, do math, find things in a library, talk, clean up for myself, some basic cooking skills and the life skill of dialogue and discussion. You know, I was right. Everything that I have learned since the eighth grade has been a deeper and wider explanation of what I have learned. The problem is that the lessons of life get much more painful each time you have to learn…or relearn…one of them. As I look back over my life, I also realize that the best friends I ever had in many ways were my friends from the neighborhood and school in the eighth grade. My friends at this time knew me. Now, certainly this will be true the rest of my life…but I mean “knew me” in a much more basic way. They knew the color of my house, the mess of my bedroom, the names of all my siblings, what my dad did and the chores I was expected to do. They understood my family’s Christmas traditions and what we did on Thanksgiving because they usually spent some time with me on those days. They knew my teachers and my imitations of my teachers. They attended my church, St. Veronica’s, and we played before and after Mass. They traveled with me to games and functions. We played together, we prayed together.

Specifically, incorporating elements of thick description and documentary photography, this ethnography investigates how the poets of the Jambalaya Soul Slam community and the Bull City Slam Team engage with the politics of southernness and Blackness in the ways they write, perform, discuss aesthetics, and hold space during local slams, regional competitions, and national competitions. Discourses of communitas and subjectivity are critical to poetry slam scholarship: How do poetry slams channel individual performances and crowd participation to become zones of communitas? How do poets, particularly the Black southern poets of the Jambalaya community, adapt the generative potential of communitas to re- write the scripts that white hegemony has imposed on their identities and their work? For the poets of the Jambalaya and the Bull City Slam Team, southernness becomes a means through which poets define how they engender communitas in the rooms they enter and how they discover alternate possibilities for what southern spoken aesthetics and identities, especially as the intersection of Blackness, can represent.
