William Jelani Cobb discusses The Devil & Dave Chapelle & Ot...

In this unflinching, timely, wide-ranging collection of essays, William Jelani Cobb lays bare the black experience of the past decade using cinema, music, literature, politics and pop culture. From the "too smart" irony of Dave Chappelle to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina; from the gift and curse of "black success" in the post civil rights era to the failure of history to act as a guide for the present, this collection is a chronicle of where we have been and a signpost for where we need to go next. Cobb is an assistant professor of history at Spelman College, a contributing writer to Essence magazine and author of To The Break of Dawn: A Freestyle on the Hip Hop Aesthetic. For more information, please call 301-779-9300. All are welcome to attend our readings but if you wish to have a book signed, it must be purchased at Vertigo Books, rather than at a competitor.

From Publishers Weekly: "A picaresque set on the fictional Caribbean island of San Carlos in 1942, Channer's rewarding and tense novella follows the journey of fishing village outcast Estrella Thompson, a precocious 14-year-old with a woman's body who seeks shoes, employment and acceptance in the capital city of Seville…Estrella comes of age practically by the hour…Channer writes with an intriguing, lyrical blend of English and Caribbean patois and uses simple language and crisp imagery...this novella—a moral fable, Russell Banks notes in his afterword—signals the arrival of a talent matured." An acclaimed novelist, Channer founded the Calabash International Literary Festival and teaches at Medgar Evers College. For more information, please call 301-779-9300.

Later the Same Evening: an opera inspired by five paintings ...
Where: Ina and Jack Kay Theatre
Date: 2007-11-15 19:30:00
Type:
John Musto, composer Mark Campbell, librettist Glen Cortese, conductor Leon Major, director Maryland Opera Studio National Gallery Orchestra WORLD PREMIERE! A new opera from award-winning composer John Musto and librettist Mark Campbell (Volpone) inspired by the works of iconic artist Edward Hopper, one of the foremost American realists of the 20th century. Hopper’s paintings are often praised for capturing moments of profound loneliness and a sense of estrangement — a perception that the artist himself often refuted. The five Hopper paintings that inspire the opera Later the Same Evening all occur in New York and certainly project that sense of SOLITUDE, welcome and unwelcome, one feels in the city. But the opera goes further and connects the five paintings — sometimes obliquely, sometimes directly — to create a story that celebrates coincidental and serendipitous events occurring on a single night in New York in 1932. A joint project of the National Gallery of Art, the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center, and the University of Maryland School of Music, Later the Same Evening: an opera inspired by five paintings of Edward Hopper makes its world premiere in conjunction with the first comprehensive Hopper survey to appear in American museums outside New York in more than 25 years. The exhibition of oil paintings, watercolors and prints visits three U.S. cities — Boston, Washington D.C. and Chicago. The Edward Hopper art exhibition can be seen at D.C.'s National Gallery of Art from September 16, 2007 to January 21, 2008. Tickets $30 ? $7 Student
