Football fans saw the
fickle nature of Michigan
weather this weekend when
it swung from a sunny, warm
70 degrees Friday to a chilling
low of 30 degrees Saturday,
along with a dusting of snow
on The Big House, during
Michigan’s final home football
game.
Despite the cold, Michigan
fans celebrated their 20-10
win against Indiana by taking
to the field and making snow
angels.
Snow fell heavily during
the game as well, forcing the
players to play on a slippery
field. With one game left,
Michigan is 10-1-0 this season.
The victorious, snowy end
was the last home game of
the season — a potential relief
after Michigan’s loss to Iowa
14-13 last Saturday. Michigan
is currently ranked at No. 3 in
the AP poll.
The game also led to a
different kind of ranking.
According to Michigan
Football’s Twitter account,
Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh
has reached 20 wins faster
than all but one another coach
in Michigan history.

Allen performed an original
song
with
his
own
guitar
accompaniment.
“When you can look into the
eyes of the person performing,
it’s a different way you can
connect to it — it’s much more
intimate,” he said.
The
event
was
hosted
by
MOSAIC:
Intercultural
Performance
Ensemble,
a
student organization dedicated
to creating live art to increase
diversity and representation on
campus.
Music, Theatre & Dance senior
Aline Mayagoitia, the creative
director of MOSAIC, said the
event
was
an
opportunity
for students to express their
thoughts on important issues
in a way that is not normally
facilitated at the University.
“We
are
a
presenting
organization,
so
we
usually
couple with student theater or
other organizations to make
pieces that have either a cast or
creative team or a voice that is
usually not represented in other
organizations on campus,” she
said.
Mayagoitia said this was the
first non-theater performance
MOSAIC
has
hosted,
with
students
presenting
original
works from poems to songs, as
well as reenacting excerpts from
plays and other performances
they have been a part of.
“Identity is so much more
complicated
than
what
our
binary systems want us to believe
it is, and I think a really good way
to express complicated things
is through art and through
poetry, music and storytelling,”
Mayagoitia said. “Today is about
us, as artists, as poets, as people,
expressing our own words.”
During the event, Mayagoitia
spoke
about
recent
campus
events,
including
student
protests in the Ann Arbor
community, saying this open mic
night aimed to create a safe space
for underrepresented students to
speak up.
“We
think
we’re
understanding and we think
we’re so open and yet, there are
still crimes that are happening
at our doorstep, and still a lot
of hate that we need to combat
with expressing ourselves and
plainly saying who we are,” she
said. “That’s where the title came
from.”
Elyakeem Avraham, a junior
in LSA and Music, Theatre &
Dance and the associate director
MOSAIC, said he hoped the
event would widen the lens and
perception of audience members
so they could leave with an open
mind about different identities.
“I really want them to be able
to know that there are ways
to articulate, understand and
educate yourselves about other
identities that people hold,” he
said.
The
open
mic
included
excerpts
from
“For
Colored
Girls,”
a
show
directed
by
Avraham and set to be performed
on Central Campus this February.
“It’s the coming-of-age story
about
everybody’s
personal
identities and everything they
hold within,” Avraham said. “A
lot of times the media perpetrates
or stereotypes people for a lot
of things that can cascade over
their whole ethnicity or race,
religion or sexual orientation.
With All That I Am is basically
that
personalization
and
humanization
of
people
individually, and that’s what
our community is hungry for
and needs.”
Reeves and Allen said these
kind of events are particularly
important for students today
and they hope to continue
working with MOSAIC to
perform self-produced work
and audition for larger campus
productions.
“I think that a lot of times
when people are having casual
conversation they can put up
a blockage and there can be a
kind of force field around them
so you can’t intuitively see
through them,” Avraham said.
“But the interesting thing that
a performance does is that it
gives people that time capsule,
that blank space to be a canvas
and to create and allow people
to really see their true colors.
I think live performance has
a way to interpret what we
feel in actual life that we can’t
say in everyday conversation
because it isn’t in our casual
dialogue to do so.”
