YOU 3.05 "Into the Woods"

[mannytoodope]

Gregory: Please hold. Interim Principal Gregory Eddie at your service. Janet: We'll dig into that later. First, an update. No concerns on the students thus far. And all the staff has passed my standard inspection. Gregory: I've longed for protocol. This is the best day of my life. Janet: Except for one person who isn't handling it well... at all. Gregory: Oh, well, look, that's just how Janine is. Janet: I'm not talking about Janine. Gregory: Jacob? That one lunch lady? Janet: Her name is Shanae. Gregory: That don't sound right. Janet: It's not her. Gregory: Well, who could it be? Mr. Johnson? Janet: That is the single most well-adjusted man I have ever met. I'm talking about Barbara Howard. Gregory: Are you sure you don't mean Janine? Janet: I'm sure. Listen, I've been with people in the aftermath of some tough situations... Heart attacks, flooding, wig falling off at an assembly. Nothing shakes people up more than a fire. There's usually something under the surface. Gregory: I feel like you're reading her wrong. Barbara is the most together and collected person at this school. She's made mistakes, but she moved on... Barbara: Oh! Miss Janet. There you are. I just wanted to reiterate that I am fine. Janet: Is that all? Barbara: Also, I wanted to add that I never listen to Chaka Khan's "Through the Fire" when it comes up on my Pandora. "I'm Every Woman," not a pyromaniac.

On today's episode of TALK in PInk, we welcome TV, Film, & stage actress and Owner of FourNaturalsHair.com, Shalita Grant! We all know that Hollywood values white hair, but what about black hair? In this talk, Shalita Grant, an authority, artist, and entrepreneur discusses the lack of care black hair receives in the entertainment industry. She shares her experiences and talks about the need for change. If you want to improve the natural hair that comes out of your head - then this is a must watch. Shalita shares how her experiences as an African-American Actress in Hollywood on the set of #NCIS, #You, and more helped lead her to #FourNaturalsHair and how shes helping the industry! Including you, ..... (You know who you are) #TALKinPINk #ShalitaGrant #WokeThotism Follow Shalita Grant @ShalitaGrant on IG Shalita Grant was inspired to launch haircare line after exiting her role as Sonja Percy on 'NCIS.' Following her exit from the series, Shalita has gone on to many projects from You to the award winning Abbott Elementary. During this time, she decided to launch her own line of natural products called Four Naturals. "For Black women, the way our hair is policed is that we're told it's unprofessional in its natural state," she said in an interview with Vulture in July 2020. "With NCIS, it wasn't just that the people didn't know how to do my hair. The cosmetology board teaches that hair is hair, which essentially erases Black and Asian hair, because there are differences." "It was all because, in their minds, a love interest doesn't look like that," she told the outlet. "A love interest has straight hair." She added, "It's all built around those assumptions, and I suffered because of that." She is on the path to helping to bring the best of what grows naturlaly out of our heads to the forefront

Lewsberg — Out and About (12XU)

Out And About by Lewsberg

The once post-punk clatter of Lewsberg has diminished to an unsettling hum. No longer scrambling, but even so, not at rest, the Rotterdam four-piece follows airy pop melodies into odd corners. Lyrics provoke and don’t quite resolve, drifting off into dot-dot-dotted elusiveness, while the hard edges of guitar and drums melt into lucid-dream-like sustained textures: organ, violin, floating female voices.

This fourth LP gives the two women in the band greater prominence, a trend that started with 2021’s In Our Hands. Shalita Dietrich, the bassist, sings or chants on a plurality of the tracks. Her cool, unruffled soprano brings the temperature down on jaunty “Without a Doubt,” casting an aura of calm over fractious jangle, much as Georgia Hubley does for Yo La Tengo. And yet while the tones are serene, the lyrics are knotty and complicated and terse, picking at big themes like alienation from thought and body and religion in fitful bursts of cogitation.

Arie van Vliet, the other main singer, pokes in his deadpan way at the absurdity of physical existence in “An Ear to the Chest.” His heart is beating faster. Could it speed up indefinitely? He asks the doctor. She runs some tests. It is all very quotidian, matter of fact, against a clangor of straight-strummed guitar and boxy drums. And yet it opens up into philosophy when the doctor says, “You asked for it. You asked for so much.” We did. We do. Our hearts put up with a lot.

Later in “Communion,” Lewsberg tips religious commonplaces on their sides. “Bless the lord my soul, as I watch him from above,” van Vliet chants in a lyric that doesn’t quite match up; it is usually the almighty who grants blessings and watches from overhead, not the person praying. And indeed, these lyrics have a moebius strip quality, where they seem to proceed in a logical way, then double back on themselves, so that you are all of the sudden upside down.

The best and most striking song comes near the end in “There’s a Poet in the Bushes,” a slow-paced, radiantly set piece that is at once a cosmic joke and a deep meditation. A poet sits in the bushes, taking literally the lines, “I am a poet. If I want the rose to bloom, the rose blooms,” and trying to will the garden to flower. Around him, ordinary suburban life unfolds; parents tell their children to stay away from the man in the bushes. The song is absurd and funny and profound, and though the rose never blooms, it says a lot about art and spirit and beauty.

And so, a band that caught our fancy with its slashing post-punk energy turns into something else entirely, more serene sonically, but still challenging in its slow, thoughtful way.  Here chilly, cerebral ideas provide structure for enticing pop, and the sweetness comes with a bit of vertigo.

PERSON-CENTERED PRACTICE: CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR NEW PERSON-CENTERED ORGANIZATIONS

The Person-Centered Practice Unit is pleased to announce its newest Person-Centered Organizations (PCOs), Comcare Inc. (east), Dickson County Developmental Skills (DCDS) (middle), and the STAR Center (west) were selected to participate in the ‘Becoming a Person-Centered Organization’ initiative.

Each organization has made a commitment to widespread training and workshops for the people they support,  their employees,  and the organization as a whole. This opportunity will also grant them the chance to work with various stakeholders. 

These organizations will work together in partnership with Support Development Associates LLC., and the Person-Centered Practice Unit (PCPU) to lay the foundations for transformational change to become more person-centered in their day-to-day practices and structures.

This initiative integrates person-centered thinking skills with specific best practices in management and quality improvement. The learning that derives from using person-centered approaches in supporting people motivates the changes that are made at the organization level and the system level. Currently, the PCPU is providing support for over 26 exclusive organizations.

If you would like to know more about becoming a person-centered organization, please e-mail or call Shalita Wells, Shalita.Wells@tn.gov, (615)-253-5823.
