Spoiler Alert

Since the start of Ahsoka, Mandalorian warrior, Jedi trainee, and former rebel Sabine Wren (Natasha Liu Bordizzo) has been single-minded about her objective. It’s to find her old friend Ezra Bridger, who exiled himself, and Imperial Grand Admiral Thrawn, into unknown space at the end of Star Wars Rebels. When we meet Sabine again in Ahsoka, years have passed since she lost her Ghost crewmate. But despite training as a Jedi under Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson), she still had one goal in mind—find Ezra. She even allowed ex-Jedi mercenaries Baylan Skoll (Ray Stevenson) and Shin Hati (Ivanna Sakhno) to find Thrawn in order for her to locate her friend as well. And in episode six of Ahsoka, “Far, Far Away,” that reunion finally took place.

Sabine Is Taken to Grand Admiral Thrawn, Demanding to See Ezra

Taken to the planet Peridea in another galaxy, as a willing prisoner of Baylan Skoll and Morgan Elsbeth (Diana Lee Inosanto), Sabine confronts her old enemy, Grand Admiral Thrawn (Lars Mikkelsen). Since she helped Skoll by not destroying the orb that contained the map to Peridea, Baylan promised to allow Sabine the chance to find her lost friend. Thrawn lets Baylan keep his word to Sabine (to an extent). He gave her an animal called a howler and intel on Ezra’s location. She journeys into the wilds of the planet looking for her friend.

As she travels across the bleak terrain of Peridea, Sabine encounters bandits and then a species called the Noti. The aliens look like adorable anthropomorphic snails. They can curl up into their shells and hide from predators, appearing to be rocks. If it sounds like the trolls from Frozen, well, it’s because they’re very much like the trolls from Frozen. When Sabine tries to talk to the Noti she encounters, she notices it is wearing a symbol of the Rebel Alliance. She realizes this creature must know Ezra. She follows the Noti to his village, a settlement of several homes that look like larger versions of their shells. Soon, she discovers her old friend from the Ghost crew, Ezra Bridger, is living among the Noti. Eman Esfandi plays adult Ezra.

Seeing one another after a decade, Ezra and Sabine hug it out. Ezra is now a full-grown man, as it’s a been a decade since the events of the Rebels finale. Sabine hesitates to tell Ezra details about how she found him, probably realizing that he’ll be deeply disappointed knowing her actions might help bring Thrawn back home. How that conversation will go down will have to wait, as right now the two old friends are just happy to see each other.

Unknown to Sabine, Thrawn has sent Baylan Skoll and Shin Hati out to kill them. Thus, Thrawn sort of keeps Baylan’s word by allowing her to find her missing friend. What he forgot to mention was he’d be willing to kill her right after. But we have a feeling neither of these old friends is going down so easily.

HBCU Week Kicks Off With Porter-Gaud’s Breakfast Program, Open To All Students

https://www.blackenterprise.com/education-porter-gaud-hbcu-week/

In honor of HBCU Week, the Porter-Gaud School in Charleston, SC, hosted its second annual breakfast program on Sept. 13.

According to Live 5 WCSC, the program was initiated by a group of students from the school’s Black Excellence Society. HBCU Week celebrates the rich history of HBCUs (historically Black colleges and universities). It was introduced in the 1980s when then-President Jimmy Carter declared the week an official celebration.

According to the school’s website, the Office of Community Engagement and Belonging and the Office of College Counseling at Porter-Gaud School hosted the breakfast program from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. at Washington Hall on the school’s campus at 300 Albemarle Road.

The program has opened its doors to people of all races after only allowing Black students to participate last year.

“Something new we’re doing this year is last year our breakfast was only open to Black students, but this year we want to expand it,” one of the students, Kendall Givens, said.

“Regardless of if you are a Black, white, Asian, Hispanic, whatever, you can be a part of this group and just be an ally peer.” Tyla Johnson, another Porter-Gaud student, added.

The Director of Community Engagement and Belonging at Porter-Gaud, Dr. Yerko Sepúlveda, also expressed the importance of including everyone in this year’s event.

“They’re not only open to African American students, you know, they also want to bring in a little diversity,” Sepúlveda said. “So, what we’re trying to do is to highlight, you know, the existence of these colleges for kids who might be interested but also to allow other people to learn about the contribution of HBCUs throughout history.”

The program aims to explain the pivotal role HBCUs have played in the nation’s history and their contributions as higher education institutions.

“I think opening this up to all people allows Black kids to feel less isolated,” said student Amber Wilson-Debriano.

People who attended the breakfast heard from current and former students of Porter-Gaud tell them how their experience at an HBCU helped or is helping them. This week’s event was open to the community, including schools in the area.
