Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Reflection:
"As faculty in Theatre, Film, and Digital Production I teach public speaking, so I approached this collage considering embodied performance as a vehicle for artistry and activism. “In a World…” draws from the ubiquitous movie trailer tagline and was also inspired by those creative, outspoken individuals who use their voice to shape our world for the better (e.g., Angela Davis -- hand clutching the microphone, energy emanating off the page)."
Description: Joseph Charles, the Berkeley “waving man” with his familiar gloves, smile, and two-arm wave to passing motorists at the corner of Martin Luther King Jr. Way and Oregon Street. He is wearing a t-shirt from his appearance on the television program “Real People.” For 30 years, from October 6, 1962 to October 6, 1992, Mr. Charles donned yellow construction workers’ gloves, stood in front of his house, and waved to the morning traffic.
