As I post this 68

On Weekend night at the OccupyMN protests, the audience is centered around a make shift array of plastic tents, ringed by means of seated protesters with biceps and triceps linked and then an housing of standing participants. People today scatter off and glom about. There are enough people so that when the chanting gets loud, you can hear them from the street, seldom, but still not enough to feel really safe in numbers. It is really easier to sit at home and also share protest videos in Facebook and write about the idea than to be sitting on a lawn in front of the government building. As Risa, the particular long suffering waitress throughout August Wilson's play about Pittsburgh in 1968, Two Teaches Running, which is currently taking part nunca conoció a nadie en persona 74 in at the Penumbra Theatre, says Verbena è utilizzato dai raffreddori e sistema neurale esausto calmante 02 "You had reached do something."
That Wilson's perform about those tumultuous years can be playing right now, as this innovative protest movement is trying to find traction, feels fortuitous in a way. It's not that the two things are equivalencies, our times are the same or which the methods of confronting outrage as well as injustice should be the same. Exactly what is good to know that the discord and ambiguity of instances of change, which live theatre lets us explore in a step-by-step way, remain omnipresent and aren't to be feared. When experts charge that Zuccotti Park as well as Government Plaza are not Tahrir Square as well as that 2011 is not '68, they miss the point. We have now unresolved issues. Like Memphis Shelter, proprietor of Lee's Restaurant, field of all the action in Two Educates Running, run off his home in Jackson in 1931, most people still have the deed to that particular land, and we're time for collect. James Craven growls it by stage like the megaphone amplifies it in the People's Plaza.
This is not supposed to be a review of Penumbra's production itself  the performing in the show is impressive, it is playing to sold-out houses and deserves each ounce of acclaim it could get. Histories of injustice grind out of each of the characters' sounds. Life and death are present, as is foolishness and really like. Two Trains Running wrings the actual tears out of you because the stories are personal. They're human beings facing human occasions. When people criticize the Take up Wall Street movement as a result of having a clear list of requires, it is because that in a movement dedicated to hearing all suggests, one PR strategy isn't possible or even desirable. Hambone's insistent cry of "He gonna give me our ham" is as succinct a demand as "Unfuck it all", and in the world of this play religieus of niet heeft and our world, just as idealistic. It is the simple demands that individuals be given our due as well as treated with dignity that can be essentially the most maddening when unmet, and the nearly all uniting in their call to action.
Which action is direct, but will also non violent. Two Educates Running has the threat of personal violence all over it, however it's the systemic violence that gets the most attention. Retiree made philosopher Holloway talks about the history involving slavery, turning people directly into property and how suddenly, given that white people have to pay dark colored people, there's no work plus black people are lazy. Several of the first words out of the coordinators mouths regarding the people being placed in and around the tent structures, dragen platen voor mensen die hulp nodig hebben en serveren  72 awaiting the possibility that police will descend upon them to clear these folks out, is that they pledge to be non violent. "We will not withstand arrest," they say, since the system is designed for confrontation plus violence that creates a home sustaining cycle. As professional Abdul Salaam El Razzac, who plays Holloway at Penumbra, claimed in an interview with the Star Tribune, "Kids need to have a safe place to express the rage, and the stage is preferable to taking it out on another person's property."
On level and on the plaza, it's large. The sky is heavy, the actual anticipation is heavy, hopes are heavy. No one is particularly light-weight. When one man got the megaphone to bless the "angelic troublemakers", he does not mean some silly mischief. He means a Ginsbergian soul's distress, he means those "who recognize that all they have is their our bodies, and who put their body against the wheel to stop the appliance." That's the kind of weight we're talking about. That's what all of us talk about in with theater very, putting our bodies and comments out there to try and articulate a little something greater than ourselves. We're referring to Memphis saying "Freedom is hard. You have to place your shoulder to it, and wish your back doesn't break.In . It takes people, and a whole lot of love, wherever and however many of us put it together, up until the moment many of us die. Aunt Ester might have anything to say about that, history always does. May we are living long enough to love eachother that much.
Addendum, 1:05am 10/16/2011: As I post this, Hennepin Region Sheriff's officers are removing the tents. there is a strong chant of "We are the 99%" and there has been one public arrest. Watch the live feed here. Better yet, head on the bottom and put your body on the line.
