A Dopo, located in downtown Knoxville, provides fresh pizza for costumers to enjoy. Tyler Warner • The Daily Beacon

A Dopo serves up picture perfect pizza Jenna Butz Arts & Culture Editor The space between Old City and North Knoxville is a little strange.

It’s sparse, but two of my favorite Knoxville spots are there Public House and A Dopo Sourdough Pizza.

Public House had been one of my weekly hang outs for a while, so when I found out that a wood-fired pizza spot

was opening just a short walk from my favorite bar, it was fate.

My partner and I took a trip to A Dopo for date night not long after it opened, ready to try a spot that had so quickly gotten rave reviews. When we walked in, I was struck by how industrial the interior was, and how small the space was compared to how big it looked outside. We put our names in, and after about a 20 minute wait, we were seated and quickly waited on.

After our waiter left us with our

own carafes of complimentary water (my date’s sparkling and mine still), we noticed the blocked off notice on the menu.

“Our pizzas are 13’’,” it read. “We recommend one per person or two for every three people. Please just save room for gelato.”

Acknowledging the tip, we decided to bypass alcohol for two different pizzas to split and housemade gelato.

Cash mobs seek to boost Gatlinburg economy Staff Report

After the Smokey Mountains were devastated by wildfires, with more than 2,400 structures destroyed and 14 people killed, Gatlinburg is getting some help from cash mobs.

Cash mobs attempt to support local businesses by gathering to make purchases in a small area. The hope is that the area will get a chance to recover faster with a sudden injection of money and business.

David Bakewell, who works in facilities planning and manages construction for UT campuses, had the idea.

“I was familiar with the cash mob concept, and I made a post on Facebook that several of us should get together and go have a night out in Gatlinburg to help stimulate the economy. Several people commented that it was a good idea, so I started developing the idea more,” Bakewell said.

Writers in the Library starts semester off with spiritual reading Mcneeley Moore Contributor

“We need art and poetry these days,” Joy Harjo said in between poems, as she kicked off the 2017 spring semester of Writers in the Library. The poetry reading took place on Monday evening, Jan. 23, to a crowded auditorium full of students and faculty.

Harjo, originally from Tulsa, Oklahoma, is not only a poet but also an author, playwright and musician. She has written 15 poetry books and a handful of non-fiction and children’s books. Frequently, she records music and travels to perform with her band, Arrow Dynamics*. *Last year, Harjo was awarded the first ever Chair of

“

Excellence in Creative Writing at UT. To start off Monday’s reading, Marilyn Kallet, professor in English, introduced Harjo, describing the first time she read her work as being “struck by literary lighting.” Kallet urged listeners to appreciate Harjo’s excellence.

Harjo opened by paying tribute to the “original people of this land.” After reading a poem titled “Eagle Poem,” Harjo played a traditional, light tune on a wooden flute.

The history and the deep sentiments Harjo holds regarding her Native American heritage seeps into all of her art. She tells stories enriched with Native American culture of land and spirit.

Harjo’s poetry explores traditional folklore and personal spiritual encounters alike, from her work “Rabbit and Clay Man,” the story of a rabbit trickster creat-

ing a clay man, to her poem “By the Way,” which shares encountering the spirit of her late friend and colleague, Adrienne Rich.

The inner jazz musician in Harjo comes out in her readings as well. While reading a poem, which retells the folk story of a woman who falls in love with a man from the sky, Harjo added many musical elements, including ending with a saxophone performance. The traditional and contemporary combination of music and poetry, along with the themes of the sky, the earth

and the spirits that bring them together is the very core of Harjo’s work.

In “By the Way,” Harjo described this relationship she holds with life and poetry.

“I had to look and followed your tracks in the poems cut by suffering,” Harjo said.

“Aren’t they all? We’re in the apocalyptic age of addiction and forgetting.”

Writers in the Library will continue on Monday nights in Hodges Auditorium with a selection of authors and poets throughout this upcoming semester.

OPINIONS

Why the Women’s March matters JoAnna Brooker My Humps

This past weekend, approximately 500,000 people marched on Washington for the Women’s March. This event took place the day after the inauguration intentionally, as many celebrities who refused to perform attended and even spoke. For these reasons, among others, this event has been a subject of controversy and polarization for many.

However, upon glancing at the Women’s March website, the mission statement seems far from divisive: “In the spirit of democracy and honoring the champions of human rights, dignity and justice who have come before us, we join in diversity to show our presence in numbers too great to ignore.

The Women’s March on Washington will send a bold message to our new government on their first day in office, and to the world that women’s rights are human rights. We stand together, recognizing that defending the most marginalized among us is defending all of us.”

The statement goes on to bring in all those whom the rhetoric of the past election has frightened or ostracized and calls for intersectionality and togetherness. And those who were called, answered, even in Knoxville.

Sarah Stambaugh, a freshman in psychology, was one of those who answered.

“In times like these, we can’t be silent,” Stambaugh said. “They are trying so hard to

In times like these, we can’t be silent, “ Stambaugh said.“They are trying so hard to silence the voices of women, the LGBTQ+ community, people of color, Muslims, and so many other marginalized people. But we won’t let them, and we won’t be silent.”

silence the voices of women, the LGBTQ+ community, people of color, Muslims, and so many other marginalized people. But we won’t let them, and we won’t be silent.”

Yesterday, President Trump reinstated a controversial rule that blocks foreign aid for family planning services. Essentially, the law bars federal funding for international programs that fund abortions or even provide information about them.

This does not negate the Women’s March; it only increases its impact. In a time where division is standard, coming together for something greater is necessary for survival. We are a nation founded

Time to say what we mean Don Black Margin of Error

Throughout my life, I have constantly been inspired by the power of language.

Some of the most powerful moments in our nation’s history have used language to accomplish our highest ideals and aspirations. Jefferson wrote that “we hold these truths to be self-evident;” Obama spoke of “the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs;” Roosevelt told us to that “we had nothing to fear but fear itself.”

Truly powerful language can scratch at feelings that are both fundamental and transformational, revealing how we’ve always felt but never knew to express. Language gives substance to the fog of an unexpressed idea. But, if we aren’t careful, language can also be a distraction and a shield.

In fact, if you think about it, we shield ourselves with language to protect our feelings all the time: when our hearts are broken; when we lose our jobs.

And, of course, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

But using language to shield ourselves from the consequences of our decisions, both personally and politically, opens us up to a web of unintended consequences.

When a scientist calls climate change an issue for our grandchildren, it strips urgency from the tangible ways that climate change is affecting millions of vulnerable people alive today. When an activist labels gendered violence and sexual assault “a women’s

issue,” it gives men an excuse not to pay attention.

When a politician calls for “boots on the ground” in a foreign land, it extinguishes the humanity of the people who put their bodies on the line halfway across the world.

Because, of course, the language we use to talk about issues directly affects the way that we think about and act on them, in the same way that a sexist remark in a conversation between friends reinforces a culture of objectification. Perception becomes reality, and while there is a distinction between what people think is true and what is actually true, in a democracy, it is a distinction without a difference.

When we talk about issues, it shouldn’t be just a matter of words but of using the right words to be precise, concise and clear.

Imagine if, instead of “Give me liberty or give me death,” Patrick Henry yelled, “It is your choice to either assist in my demise or provide the option of succession for my countrymen.” Or, if instead of speaking of dreams and the fierce urgency of the present, Dr. King told President Johnson to “check his privilege.”

By carefully curating our language I do not mean to suggest passivity or the tranquilizing idea of “objectivity.” This is also not an attempt to protect the feelings of those who seek to maintain their power by dividing the rest of us into colors, genders, classes

Sarah Stambaugh, freshman in psychology on liberty and justice for all, so as a movement the Women’s March can be called many things, but unpatriotic is not one of them.

and orientations. Instead, it is selecting language to be both honest and powerful, avoiding language that assumes agreement.

For myself, phrases like “toxic masculinity” and “privilege” fail to meet those requirements. Although their simplicity can be alluring, employing phrases like privilege when we are really trying to discuss years of systemic supremacy does a disservice to the people who are most affected by the issue, both diminishing the tangible and physical toll of privilege as well as persuading no one who didn’t already agree with us. In political discourse today, we bludgeon each other with catchphrases and slogans, signaling to our tribe that we are in on the joke but serving no further utility in expanding its membership.

As progressives hoping to bend the status quo, it is our job to make an affirmative argument in favor of the change that we believe in. It is our job to sway the jury. While language isn’t the magic bullet, it is a tool that we can better utilize to bring more people in and to make more change. It is time to be precise, concise and clear.

It is time to say what we actually mean.

SOCCER

Baldwin to leave Tennessee soccer for Switzerland Tyler Wombles Copy Editor

The Tennessee soccer team was hit with some unexpected news on Tuesday when junior midfielder Carlyn Baldwin announced that she will forgo her senior season to go abroad.

Baldwin made this decision due to the fact that she will be joining the professional BSC Young Boys women’s club in Switzerland.

BSC competes in Switzerland’s highest division of women, National League A. “First, just a big thank you to all of the coaches, staff members and all my teammates for making my time at Tennessee so special, as well as supporting me with this decision,” Baldwin said. “My time at Tennessee was so important for my development on and off the field. I know I wouldn’t have this opportunity without having played at Tennessee.”

Baldwin played three full seasons for Tennessee. She scored six goals and 16 points for her career, also recording four assists. The

Oakton, Va. native helped guide Tennessee to an 11-9-1 record and a second-round berth in the SEC Tournament this season.

Baldwin made an immediate impact for the Vols when she earned SEC All-Freshman team in 2014. Baldwin also has experience with multiple of the U.S. Women’s national teams including participating in the 2014 FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup for the U.S. Head coach Brian Pensky said in a statement released on Tuesday that Baldwin is a great example of the slogan “I Will Give My All for Tennessee.”

“Every day she gave her all and we are endlessly thankful,” Pensky said. “On the field, in the classroom and in the community, Carlyn always maxed out with unwavering enthusiasm.

“We wish her the best all the best as she enters this next phase of her soccer career.

There is no doubt that she will achieve terrific success.”

Baldwin emphasized the importance of her Tennessee team and its support in her decision to turn pro.

Scott, Canales hopeful that connection will benefit Vols Rob Harvey

Asst. Sports Editor

Larry Scott and Mike Canales are no strangers to each other.

Scott and Canales first met 20 years ago when Scott was a part of a recruiting class for the University of South Florida that Canales was a coach at for the time. Canales and Scott met again, this time both as coaches, at USF where they were both assistant coaches there from 2007-2009.

Now, 21 years later, Scott and Canales team up again, this time at Tennessee.

On Friday, Canales was named the new quarterback coach at UT, while Scott, who was the tight ends coach in 2016, was promoted to offensive coordinator.

For both, working together before can be a huge benefit to both of them and to the team.

“It helps any time because you have that confidence in the person sitting next to you that he has your back and you have his and are willing to go through the battle together,” Canales said.

“I think you trust each other, and I think that is a lot of it. When you get in this profession, you are familiar with guys and try to get people around you who can make you better and strengthen your program.”

Canales brings in 32 years of coaching experience where 16 of those were as an offensive coordinator. Canales comes in with quarter-

back coaching expertise as he has coached five quarterbacks that have earned All-America recognition.

Canales will immediately have his hands full at UT, as he will have to mentor a new quarterback to replace Josh Dobbs. Canales will most likely have three guys, redshirt freshman Jarret Guarantano, sophomore Quinten Dormady and redshirt sophomore Sherion Jones, that will be fighting for that position.

For Canales, he enjoys the opportunity of being able to mentor a young quarterback.

“I think it’s an exciting time,” Canales said.

“I think it’s exciting competition, and I think they’re all biting at the bit to get out there and perform. I’m excited to get out there with them because I think there’s going to be so many new and exciting things they’re going to be able to bring to the table.”

Canales is familiar with coaching in Neyland Stadium as he was interim head coach at North Texas in 2015 when the mean green came to Knoxville. Tennessee won the game 24-0.

Scott, on the other hand, is much more familiar with coaching in Neyland Stadium.

Scott brings 16 years of coaching experience to his role as offensive coordinator. Last year, Scott joined the UT staff as the tight ends and special teams coach. Before UT, Scott served as the interim head coach at Miami, where he went 4-2 and led them to the Sun Bowl.

This will be a new experience for Scott as the only experience he has as an offensive coordinator was on the high level. However, Scott feels

I think it’s an exciting time. I think it’s exciting competition, and I think they’re all biting at the bit to get out there and perform. I’m excited to get out there with them beacuse I think there’s going to be so many new and exciting things they’re going to be able to bring to the table.”

that he is ready for this step up.

“I have always just grabbed and taken advantage of every opportunity I’ve been given and strived to really be the best at that,” Scott said on Friday. “So the preparation of getting into calling plays and all those type of things, it has been an accumulation of years and time and effort and communication with a bunch of really good coaches that I have been fortunate enough to be around and build that type of repertoire.”

Scott will have his hands full on offense, as the Vols are coming one of their best offensive seasons in history under Mike Debord.

With a year to watch Debord run his offense and see the success it had, Scott doesn’t want to

Mike Canales, Quarterback Coach

go away from what has worked in the past at UT. “One of the first things is to make sure everybody understands it’s Tennessee’s offense,” Scott said. “We are looking to take the personnel that we have and evaluate it top to bottom and always look at our strengths and always play to those strengths and do the best we can to put ourselves on a week-by-week basis in a position to win.”

Scott will be relinquishing his special teams coach spot to new defensive backs coach Charlton Warren.

The Vols have not announced any other staff changes, however, all signs are pointing to at least one more change.

My date assured me it was one of the best pizzas he’s ever had, and I reluctantly took my first bite.�

A DOPO continued from Page 1 We ordered the soppressata pizza rosa, which came with crushed plum tomatoes, house-pulled mozzarella, soppressata salami and basil, along with that night’s special. I missed the name, letting my date order that one because it was something I couldn’t pronounce, but it was a pizza bianca with charred, crispy greens, crushed red pepper and a soft, fried egg. Even after we ordered, I was skeptical about the eggs with its runny yolk, but I was determined to give it a chance.

Our pizzas arrived at the same time, and I was struck by how pretty they were.

You know how pizza rarely looks as good in real life as it does in the picture? Well, this pizza looked better than the pictures.

The crusts were perfectly charred and the cheeses on both had that perfect bubbly, grilled look. The meats looked fresher than I’ve ever seen on a pizza, and the veggies were charred but still green and fresh. And then there was that egg, sitting smack dab in the middle of my otherwise perfect pizza.

I went for the soppressata pizza first, the safest option at that point — and it was just as perfect as it looked. The crust was crispy and flavorful, and the rest of the pizza was hot and better than almost any other pizza in Knoxville.

I finished my half of that one quickly before finally making my move to the greens and egg. My date assured me it was one of the best pizzas he’s ever had, and I reluctantly took my first bite. The egg was concentrated at the end, so my first bite was all egg and cheese. Because the pizza had been sitting in the yolk for a little while, it had gotten a little soggy, but it was still the best, most interesting bite of pizza I’ve ever had. It was complex and flavorful, with the richness of the egg balanced by the crispy freshness of the greens

and the bite of the red pepper.

Because it was all so good, we each finished our halves of each pizza, and though it was the recommended amount for each person, it was a lot. Honestly, I would have been fine with splitting one or just eating three-fourths of one. Since it was our first time at A Dopo, I was glad we went all in, but I was beyond stuffed afterwards.

Despite our fullness though, we couldn’t stop ourselves from trying a cup of A Dopo’s housemade gelato. We decided to try the pistachio since it also included house-roasted pistachios, and it was like we had never even eaten our pizza, finishing every last scoop of gelato in record time.

For two pizzas and gelato, our bill hit at about $40 before tip, which isn’t terrible for date night. If we went in on a normal night and just split a pizza, we probably wouldn’t have gone over $20 total.

The space between North Knoxville and Old City is steadily growing, and the addition of A Dopo fills a culinary hole in that area I didn’t even know needed to be filled. Now, it’s hard to imagine A Dopo not being there.

Look for our feature on A Dopo in next week’s issue.
