  • State of the Blues PAST, PRESENT and FUTURE by JACK HADLEY
    BIMONTHLY NEWS OF THE COLORADO BLUES SCENE • VOL. 24, NO. 4 • AUG. - SEPT. 2018 • [email protected] 2013 KBA WINNER BLUES SOCIETY STATE OF THE BLUES PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE BY JACK HADLEY Most Americans growing up in the age of pop music never listened to the blues. It wasn’t played on commercial radio and, sadly, not much has changed. I realize that any roots music in 2018 is hidden in plain sight. It’s out there if you look for it. I was at a blues jam re- cently and I was surprised at the music I heard. It was uniformly real blues mu- sic. There were no reggae covers or pop tunes played under the guise of blues. The most telling part of the night for me was a band of young people who hit the stage. A standard lineup of guitar, bass, drums and a lead vocalist. I have to admit they didn’t look like they knew any- thing about the music. I was dead wrong. These kids (anyone under 30 is a kid to me now) hit it real hard. It was on the blues rock end of the scale and more blues than I expected. Howlin’ Wolf and a few other classic covers. It was well done and I felt the blues coming from the stage. No, they didn’t sound like any of the artists on this page (Sonny Boy Williamson, Rick Estrin & The Nightcats and Christone “Kingfish” Ingram, clockwise from left to right). They sounded like themselves. And it’s still called the blues.

  • Black and Asian Theatre in Britain a History
    Black and Asian Theatre in Britain A History Edited by Colin Chambers First published 2011 ISBN 13: 978-0-415-36513-0 (hbk) ISBN 13: 978-0-415-37598-6 (pbk) Chapter 8 ‘All a we is English’ Colin Chambers CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 8 ‘All A WE IS English’1 Britain under Conservative rule in the 1980s and for much of the 1990s saw black and Asian theatre wax and then wane, its growth the result of earlier forces’ coming to a head and its falling away a consequence of cuts allied to a state-driven cultural project that celebrated the individual over the collective and gave renewed impetus to aggressive, narrow nationalism. How to survive while simultaneously asserting the heterodox, hybrid nature of non-white theatre and its contribution to British theatre was the urgent challenge. Within two years of the Thatcher government’s election to power in 1979, Britain saw perhaps the most serious rioting of its postwar era, which led to major developments in public diversity policy, though less significant change at the level of delivery. The black community could no longer be taken for granted and was demanding its rights as British citizens. The theatre group that epitomized this new urgency and resilience and the need to adapt to survive was the Black Theatre Co-operative (BTC).2 The group was founded by Mustapha Matura and white director Charlie Hanson in 1978 after Hanson had failed to interest any theatres in Welcome Home Jacko, despite Matura’s standing as the leading black playwright of his generation.

  • Fire from My Tongue// 1
    Fire From My Tongue // a lesson plan by Charlie Schwartz Goal: To raise questions and frame a discussion around the paradoxically universalist and particularist identities of many Diaspora Jews. Technical Requirments: Large Sticky Notes/Half Sheets of Paper with Tape Pens LCD Projector/Screen Computer with Internet Lyric Sheets Background: With its distinctive reggae cadence, Matisyahu's song "Jerusalem" runs deep with biblical allusions, references to the Holocaust, exile and the hope of messianic redemption. In contrast, the video for "Jerusalem" beautifully depicts people from diverse backgrounds placing photographs on a wall, forming a literal Kotel of human experience. On an intellec tual level, there is dissonance between the particular nature of the lyrics, and the universal themes of the video, yet on an artistic level the video and lyrics hypnotically integrate with one another. This session examines this apparent tension between the video and the song while exploring how participants integrate their Jewish identities into the non-Jewish world around them. Activity 1: What is Jerusalem? This activity is essentially a group brainstorm designed to get participants to start thinking about what Jerusalem means to them. Suggested Steps: *Handout half sticky notes/paper and pens. *Ask participants to write a sentence about what comes to mind when they hear the word “Jerusalem” *Ask participants to post their sentences on the wall. *Ask participants if they see any patterns. *Have participants move sentences into groups according to ideas and themes. *Have participants explain their grouping of sentences. Activity 2: Jerusalem, the Song. In this activity participants listen to the Matisyahu song “Jerusalem,” and try to understand the lyrics through chevruta (partner) study.
