SUMMARY:Winona - Examining Military Service From the Margins
DESCRIPTION:Session 2: How has the military service of certain populations been hidden devalued\, limited\, or discriminated against?\nVeterans\, active service members\, and civilians are invited to contribute to the “Examining Military Service From the Margins” discussion series. Facilitated by pairs of Discussion Leaders\, each session will use guiding questions\, and a set of core-shared resources like oral histories and films\, to better understand how race\, class\, gender\, sexuality\, religion\, and other factors have caused the military service of some individuals to be devalued or limited in some capacity. All Discussion Leaders are either active service members or Veterans.  \nConsideration of central topics and themes\, and discussion of key moments from military history\, such as self-emancipation among the U.S. Colored Troops members in the Civil War\, or the repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell more recently\, will spark greater conversations about service\, democracy\, citizenship\, equality and more. Additional resources will be offered for those with extra time wanting to explore even further. \nSession One of “Examining Military Service From the Margins” will introduce participants to core concepts of the discussion series and consider the guiding questions\, “What do we mean by ‘Examining Military Service From the Margins?’” and “What motivates people to serve?”  \nWhat you can expect from this series:\n\nDiscussion Leaders\, Veterans\, active service members\, and civilians will share information on military service\, as well as talk about their personal experiences and perspectives.\nEach session will have a resource list of articles\, books\, and organizations to help you gain a deeper understanding of the issues at hand.\nEngage in small and large group discussions.\n\nRegistration\nRegistration is required. There is no cost to attend; sign up for one or two sessions. \nRegistration Questions: registrations@mnhum.org \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Online - Headscarf Story Circle Gathering: Health and Humanities - Reaching Women Across Minnesota
DESCRIPTION:The Headscarf Story Circles have created a welcoming space where women of all ethnicities\, religions\, and ages come together in unity\, connected by the shared significance of the headscarf. This video captures the essence and purpose. Metaphorically\, each thread of the headscarf is intricately woven to form a profound tapestry\, symbolizing the complexity and beauty of our shared commonality. \nThis virtual experience will be a health and humanities focus – “Headscarf Story Circle Gathering: The Silent Subject of Menopause.” Women of all ages agree that menopause has not been an open or common discussion\, yet it comes with many questions\, concerns\, and myths. Participants will hear from experts in women’s health and have a chance to share their own stories of experiences\, fears\, and remedies. \nWe are excited to also have the following Greater Minnesota community ambassadors join us as they prepare to bring Headscarf Story Circle into their communities. \nAmbassador Bios\nTawonda Burks of Rochester\, Minnesota is the current Director of Operations at RAEDI (Rochester Area Economic Development Inc.).
