20 Seconds in Memoriam
|
Michael Rippens shares his installation “20 Seconds In Memoriam,” an interpretive hand-washing station paying homage to the hundreds of Filipino American healthcare workers who have sacrificed their lives during the pandemic in the service of caring for others. Their names —hand-printed in the sink’s basin— become visible as visitors wash their hands, allowing one to spend the recommended 20 seconds reflecting on those front-line workers killed by COVID-19. |

How I Keep Looking Up: Art and the Social Practice of Belonging and Resilience
from 6 to 7:30 p.m.
What is belonging? What does it mean to carry belonging with you? Can art help us be more resilient?
Christine Wong Yap (she/they) is a visual artist and social practitioner working in community engagement, drawing, printmaking, publishing, and public art. She partners with organizations to conduct participatory research projects to explore dimensions of psychological wellbeing such as belonging, resilience, interdependence, and collaboration.
Wong Yap’s work engages questions of belonging through projects that are as much social practice as they are public art. Drawing on examples from New Mexico to New York City to San Francisco Chinatown, they will share some of the lessons they have learned as an artist, highlighting how their projects have been shaped by local knowledge and positive psychology, and the steps they have taken to increase diversity, accessibility, equity, and inclusion in their projects.

Black Lives, Indigenous Lives: From Mattering to Thriving
from 4 to 5:30 p.m.
What can we learn from Black and Indigenous history, activism, and contemporary stewardship efforts in order to transform higher education, health, policing and other Western institutions?
This dialogue will examine and discuss major points of cultural and historic community convergence between Black and Indigenous Peoples with a focus on contemporary movements such as Black Lives Matter and Idle No More and the dismantling of racist statues, images and mascots. Andrew Jolivétte will explore what these movements mean for enacting justice interventions and moving towards thrivance circuitry, kinship building, self-determination, and abolition as transformational modes of joy production and ceremonial stewardship.
Dr. Andrew Jolivétte (Atakapa-Ishak Nation of Louisiana [Tsikip/Opelousa/Heron Clan]) is professor and chair of the Ethnic Studies Department at the University of California, San Diego as well as the inaugural founding Director of Native American and Indigenous Studies at UCSD. A former professor and department chair of American Indian Studies at San Francisco State University, he is the author or editor of nine books in print or forthcoming including the Lammy Award nominated, "Indian Blood: HIV and Colonial Trauma in San Francisco’s Two-Spirit Community." His scholarship examines Native American, Indigenous, Creole, Black, Latinx, Queer, Mixed-Race, and Comparative Critical Ethnic Studies. Jolivétte is the 2020-21 MultiRacial Network Scholar in Residence for the American Personnel Association and the Series Editor of Black Indigenous Futures and Speculations at Routledge. His current book project, "Thrivance Circuitry: Queer Afro-Indigenous Futurity and Kinship," is under contract with the University of Washington Press.

This Book Circle will consist of three meetings where participants will have the opportunity to discuss Dr. Taylor's book, as well as an additional meeting after Dr. Taylor's visit.
From Haymarket Books: "The eruption of mass protests in the wake of the police murders of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri and Eric Garner in New York City have challenged the impunity with which officers of the law carry out violence against Black people and punctured the illusion of a postracial America. The Black Lives Matter movement has awakened a new generation of activists. In this stirring and insightful analysis, activist and scholar Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor surveys the historical and contemporary ravages of racism and persistence of structural inequality such as mass incarceration and Black unemployment. In this context, she argues that this new struggle against police violence holds the potential to reignite a broader push for Black liberation."
Meeting time/dates: 3-4 p.m. Wednesdays on Jan 30, Feb 6, Feb 13, and Feb 27
Facilitators: Sarah Macdonald (CTLT) and Unique Shaw-Smith (Social Sciences)
