Window Dancing In Memoriam Harold Francis McKinney May 28, 1917 – November 7, 2006 The Talented Tenth “The problem of education, then, among Negroes must first of all deal with the Talented Tenth: it is the problem of developing the best of this race that they may guide the mass away from the contamination of the worst, in their own and other races.” W.E.B. DuBois FOREWORD Generations “A term referring to an approximation between the age of parents and the time their children were born.” The issue is, what has ensued during the generational time span of 20-25 years and how prepared were and are parents to provide the necessary educational, emotional, spiritual, physical and economic assets required for the development of the oncoming generations? What have been the experiences, accomplishments and perhaps inabilities of the parent generation and how will this equation impact upon the newcomers entering the world? The constant quest for human development is hopefully not supplanted by neglect, per- sonal or societal and therefore the challenge for each generation; are they prepared for their “turn” at the wheel of anticipated progress? How does each generation cope with the accomplishments and deficiencies from the previ- ous generation, when the baton is passed to the next group competing in the relay race of human existence? Despite the challenge of societal imbalance to the generations, hope and effort remain the constant vision leading to improvement accompanied and reinforced by determination and possible occurrences of “good luck,” to assist the generations and their offspring, neigh- bors and other members of the human family, towards as high a societal level as possible, in order to preserve, protect and project the present and succeeding generations into posi- tions of leverage thereby enabling them to confront the vicissitudes of life, manmade or otherwise. This progress also involves the concept of sacrifice, and postponing gratification in order to utilize the human and material resources available, as a platform for each generation to benefit from and hence assume their positions in the world and advance the human cycle. We trust the XXII. Black International Cinema Berlin 2007 is a contributing factor in providing some of the resources neccessary to enable the present and future generations to assume a leading position in their constructive contributions to the constant relay race of life. Fountainhead® Tanz Theatre March 2007 VORWORT Generationen “Ein Begriff, der die ungefähre Zeitspanne zwischen dem Alter der Eltern und der Zeit der Geburt ihrer Kinder beschreibt.” Die Frage ist, was ist während dieser Generationenzeitspanne von 20-25 Jahren geschehen und in welcher Form waren und sind Eltern darauf vorbereitet, die notwendigen bildenden, emotionalen, spirituellen, physischen und wirtschaftlichen Grundlagen bereit zu halten, die für die Entwicklung der kommenden Generationen benötigt werden? Was waren die Erfahrungen, Leistungen und vielleicht Unfähigkeiten der Elterngeneration und wie wird sich diese Gleichung auf die Neuankömmlinge auswirken, die in diese Welt hinein gehen? Das fortwährende Streben nach menschlicher Entwicklung wird hoffentlich nicht vernachlässigt, indem es verleugnet wird, sei es persönlich oder gesellschaftlich, und stellt somit eine Herausforderung für jede Generation dar. Ist diese auf ihre “Drehung” am Rad des erwarteten Fortschritts vorbereitet? Wie geht jede Generation mit den Errungenschaften und Defiziten der vorherigen Generation um, wenn der Stab an die nächste Gruppe weiter gereicht wird im Staffellauf der menschlichen Existenz? Trotz der Herausforderung gesellschaftlicher Unausgewogenheit an die Generationen, bleiben Hoffnung und Anstrengung als eine beständige Vorstellung davon, was zu einer Verbesserung führen kann, gepaart mit und verstärkt durch Entschlossenheit und dem möglichen Eintreten von “Glück”, um den Generationen und ihren Nachkommen, Nachbarn und anderen Mitgliedern der menschlichen Gemeinschaft zu assistieren, damit ein höchstmögliches gesellschaftliches Niveau erreicht wird. Dies bedeutet, für die gegenwärtige und nachfolgenden Generationen Sorge zu tragen, sie zu beschützen und sie auf einflussreiche Positionen vorzubereiten, um sie dadurch in die Lage zu versetzen, sich den Wechselfällen des Lebens zu stellen, ob vom Menschen selbst verursacht oder von anderer Seite. Dieser Fortschritt verlangt auch Opfer und bedeutet, auf eine Genugtuung zunächst zu verzichten, um die vorhandenen menschlichen und materiellen Ressourcen zugänglich zu machen als einen Grundstock, aus dem jede Generation ihren Nutzen ziehen und somit ihre Positionen in der Welt einnehmen kann und den menschlichen Kreislauf voranbringt. Wir vertrauen darauf, dass das XXII. Black International Cinema Berlin 2007 einen Beitrag leistet, indem es einige Ressourcen bereitstellt, die nötig sind, damit gegenwärtige und zukünftige Generationen eine führende Position einnehmen können in ihren konstruktiven Beiträgen zum fortwährenden Staffellauf des Lebens. Fountainhead® Tanz Theatre März 2007 AVANT-PROPOS Générations “Un terme se référant à un temps approximatif entre l’âge des parents et celui de la naissance de leurs enfants.” Le problème posé, est que s’est-il passé entre les deux générations, des enfants et des adultes âgés de 20 à 25 ans et comment les parents étaient et sont préparés pour répondre aux besoins éducatifs, émotionnels, spirituels, physiques et économiques nécéssaires pour le développement des générations futures? Quels ont été les expériences et acomplissements et peut-être incapacités de la génération des parents et comment cette équation sociale va agir sur les nouveaux dans le monde? Il faut espérer que la quête constante pour le développement humain n’est pas reléguée pour cause de négligeance personnelle ou sociale et donc demeure le défi pour chaque génération; Est-ce que cette génération est prête à son “tour” pour la roue d’un progrès anticipé? Comment chaque génération fait-il face aux accomplissements et manques de la génération précédente, lorsque comme au sport, le bâton est passé au groupe prochain en compétition dans la course de relais de l’existence humaine? Malgré le défi engendré par le déséquilibre social au sein des générations, l’espoir et l’effort restent une vision constante, qui peut conduire à une amélioration, accompagnée et renforcée certes par la détermination et les aléas dus à “la bonne chance” et aussi assister les générations et leurs progénitures, voisins et autres membres de famille, vers un niveau social aussi élevé que possible. Celà signifie pour l’actuelle et l’ancienne génération la capacité d’endurer des difficultés, mais aussi de se protéger et se préparer à des positions sociales importantes leur permettant de se confronter aux vicissitutes de la vie causées par les Hommes ou non. Ce progrès implique aussi une idée de sacrifice, et de renoncement à la satisfaction per- sonelle afin d’utiliser les ressources humaines et matérielles disponibles comme une source de profit pour chaque génération et ainsi assumer leurs positions dans le monde et contribuer à l’avancement du cycle de la société. Nous croyons que le XXII. Berlin International Cinéma Berlin Festival 2007 représente un facteur contribuant à fournir plus de moyens nécéssaires pour permettre aux générations présentes et futures d’assumer une position sociale dans leurs contributions constructives à la course constante de relais de la vie.

  • Welcome Letter 2013 Samuel H. Scripps American Dance Festival
    Welcome Letter 2013 Samuel H. Scripps American Dance Festival Award Lin Hwai-min The ADF wishes to thank the late Samuel H. Scripps, whose generosity made possible the annual $50,000 Samuel H. Scripps American Dance Festival Award. The Award was established in 1981 as the first of its kind and honors chorographers who have dedicated their lives and talent to the creation of modern dance. The continuation of the award is made possible through the SHS Foundation and its President, Richard E. Feldman. Celebrated choreographer, director, and educator Lin Hwai-min will be presented with the 2013 Award by Joseph V. Melillo in a special ceremony on Saturday, July 27th at 8:00 pm, prior to the Forces of Dance performance at the Durham Performing Arts Center. The program will also include a performance of the solo from Lin Hwai-min’s 1998 work Moon Water, performed by Cloud Gate Dance Theatre dancer Chou Chang-ning. Mr. Lin’s fearless zeal for the art form has established him as one of the most dynamic and innovative choreographers today. His illustrious career as a choreographer has spanned over four decades and has earned him international praise for his impact on Chinese modern dance. He is the founder, choreographer, and artistic director of both Cloud Gate Dance Theatre of Taiwan (founded in 1973) and Cloud Gate 2 (founded in 1992), and his choreography continues to be presented throughout the United States, Europe, and Asia. While his works often draw inspiration from traditional elements of Asian culture and aesthetics, his choreographic brilliance continues to push boundaries and redefine the art form.
