Rodolfo Lopez, deputy director of the Economic and Community Development Department, said the purpose is to “somewhat rebrand” the Maricopa Townsite subdivision to “create a sense of place.” A neighborhood open house was held in November followed by a meeting of the Heritage District Committee in December to work out the new street names. The plan had been to change slightly GOVERNMENT Arizona Avenue, a road between Plainview and Burkett/Pershing, to Arizona Lane. However, Councilwoman Julia Gusse wanted one of the roads to reflect the “predominantly Latino” heritage of the area. Because naming streets after some local families might cause conflict within the neighborhood, she suggested instead changing the name of Arizona Avenue to Cesar Chavez Lane for the revered, Arizona- born labor leader. City Manager Rick Horst affirmed he discussed the issue with Gusse earlier and One city concept is to turn the area into a marketplace and plaza that reimagines the took it back to city staff, which agreed with the use of the Amtrak station. change.

  • Roller Derby: Past, Present, Future RESEARCH PAPER for ASU’S Global Sport Institute
    Devoney Looser, Foundation Professor of English Department of English, Arizona State University Tempe, AZ 85287-1401 [email protected] Roller Derby: Past, Present, Future RESEARCH PAPER for ASU’s Global Sport Institute SUMMARY Is roller derby a sport? Okay, sure, but, “Is it a legitimate sport?” No matter how you’re disposed to answer these questions, chances are that you’re asking without a firm grasp of roller derby’s past or present. Knowledge of both is crucial to understanding, or predicting, what derby’s future might look like in Sport 2036. From its official origins in Chicago in 1935, to its rebirth in Austin, TX in 2001, roller derby has been an outlier sport in ways admirable and not. It has long been ahead of the curve on diversity and inclusivity, a little-known fact. Even players and fans who are diehard devotees—who live and breathe by derby—have little knowledge of how the sport began, how it was different, or why knowing all of that might matter. In this paper, which is part of a book-in-progress, I offer a sense of the following: 1) why roller derby’s past and present, especially its unusual origins, its envelope-pushing play and players, and its waxing and waning popularity, matters to its future; 2) how roller derby’s cultural reputation (which grew out of roller skating’s reputation) has had an impact on its status as an American sport; 3) how roller derby’s economic history, from family business to skater-owned-and- operated non-profits, has shaped opportunity and growth; and 4) why the sport’s past, present, and future inclusivity, diversity, and counter-cultural aspects resonate so deeply with those who play and watch.

    Annual report 2018–2019 Race and Sport Around the Globe ‘‘ The many colors of our skins is best described as the common color of the field. As our theme year of Race and Sport Around the Globe comes to an end, my hope is that we continue to see sport as a place where our common experiences, rather than the things that divide us, can be celebrated. ‘‘A greguería written by Alberto Ríos Arizona’s first state poet laureate, Director of the Virginia G. Piper Center for Creative Writing at ASU, and a fan of sport ’’ Race and Sport Around the Globe Message from Kenneth L. Shropshire It’s hard to believe that 2018–2019 was only our second academic year in operation. As we reflect back on all that happened, we often found ourselves met with unexpected yet welcome inquiries about collaborating on exciting new projects. This was an affirmation to myself and the team that word is getting out about the innovative work that happens here at Arizona State University and the Global Sport Institute. In just a short time, we’ve stared building an amazing network of relationships among scholars, practitioners, governing bodies, teams, leagues, coaches, athletes and more — virtually anyone that sport touches — to connect people with the information they need to make themselves and sport better. This has been our goal from the beginning, and I’m pleased to say we continue to make strides down that path. Throughout this year, our body of work has included internal research projects; seed grants for research and innovation; several local, national and international Annual events; and ongoing content creation.
