No Clearcuts! No Mercury! Mark The 10 Year Anniversary of the Grassy Narrows Asubpeeschoseewagong Anishinabek Blockade!

On December 2, 2002, two young Anishnaabwekwe from Grassy Narrows Asubpeeschoseewagong went out to the woods in the snow to start what is now the longest running indigenous blockade in the recent memory of Turtle Island. Please join us to mark a decade of struggle and achievement, and remember the work still to be done.

In the decade since the blockade began, the community continues to maintain a moratorium on clearcutting in their traditional territories. For ten years now, despite the ongoing threat of logging, grandmothers, mothers, trappers and youth have held off some of the world’s largest paper corporations. The community has also taken the Ontario government to task for inaction on the ongoing effects of mercury poisoning on their families and ecosystems.

Many of you, your families, your organizations, your communities, have supported their efforts in the last decade. The Sacred Fire at Queen’s Park Lawn on December 2nd, 2012, is a great way to show your ongoing support and to mark an important anniversary in the fight to protect Indigenous rights and the water, air, land, and creatures that we all depend on.

UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO DRAMA DEPARTMENT PRESENTS
Macbeth by William Shakespeare
Directed by Lee Wilson
Run: November 14-17, 8:00 p.m.

Macbeth is Shakespeare’s shortest play and most popular tragedy. Shakespeare’s approach to a swifter kind of action should leave the audience no time to think. Its intensity is most vividly realized in the play’s language and through its repeated words and images. Shakespeare is writing about corrupted power, violence, and the relationship between the dark and light forces. He evokes this through one of his greatest creations – the character of Macbeth – a difficult but willing commitment to darkness. He is both our hero and villain as evoked in the line “Fair is foul, and foul is fair”.
UWaterloo’s production of Macbeth explores our fascination with violent culture. Director, Lee Wilson, will examine the Scottish ballads and their fascination with the supernatural world and its rituals, that through spells, prayer, dance, music, and sacrifice are constantly being evoked in Shakespeare’s play.
Influenced by recent conflicts around the globe, faculty members Bill Chesney (set/props) and Gill Lesperance (sound) along with Toronto designers, Nina Okens (costumes) & Arun Srinivasan (lighting) will be using the popularity of such shows as Game of Thrones and Sons of Anarchy, to give this production a 17th-century feel with a strong modern resonance.
Join us, as through these elements, we help lift Shakespeare’s words and images, to ignite your imagination into his fascinating take on this Scottish King.
