Yola
Yola

Friday, Sept. 16, 2022 / 7 p.m.
Schaefer Center for the Performing Arts

“Stand for Myself” — the anthemic new album from Yola — is a timeless masterpiece marking an idiosyncratic sonic shift, which will defy all expectation. A sophisticated and diverse sonic mix of symphonic soul and classic pop, tracing an expansive musical thread to Yola’s most eclectic musical inspirations. Yola’s inimitable vocals share nuanced stories of allyship, black feminine strength through vulnerability, collective awakening, and loving connection from the sexual to the social.

    The Center for Judaic, Holocaust and Peace Studies invites the public to view and ponder “Shoah: How Was it Humanly Possible?” — the first exhibit from Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Center, in Jerusalem to reach the App State campus. The exhibition examines major historical aspects of the Holocaust, beginning with Jewish life in pre-Holocaust Europe and ending with the liberation of Nazi concentration and extermination camps across the continent and the remarkable return to life of the survivors.
