For the past two weeks, I have been back to work in Little Rock and Pine Bluff after giving birth. In Pine Bluff, I'm working with the sweet 4th graders at W. T. Cheney Elementary. The Art and Science Center of Southeast Arkansas commissioned the project. We are creating a performance focusing on Pine Bluff's unique role in the Civil War in Arkansas. Pine Bluff was a Union strong hold and was the only urban center in Arkansas where battle took place. To contextualize the battle, we have studied the lives of Arkansas slaves and how Arkansas entered the Civil War in addition to the battle itself.
In Little Rock, drama students at Horace Mann Middle School presented *Choosing Sides 2.0*--an anti-bullying play they created and performed for 6th graders. This week, Chris Straw, Stephanie Ong, and I return to Mann to present our *Choosing Sides* for the 7th grade students who didn't see it in the fall.
