SUMMARY:St. Paul - Our Ancestors Are Us: An Asian Adoptee Life Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Minnesota Humanities Center’s writing and reflection offerings\, we are excited to collaborate with Jennifer Kwon Dobbs to host Our Ancestors Are Us: An Asian Adoptee Life Writing Workshop\, a project funded by the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council. \nAdoption from Asia involves a child’s removal from their kinship of birth and oftentimes disconnection from their ancestral culture and ways of knowing. This interactive workshop creates a generative\, adult adoptee-centered space in which to explore the unique ways that adoptee memory and experience can be empowering sources of creativity and literary witness. Participants will learn and share writing strategies to compose works of their own about their lives lived\, unlived\, and imagined otherwise as adoptees. \nLee Herrick – Special guest Lee Herrick is the California Poet Laureate. He is the author of three books of poems: Scar and Flower\, finalist for the 2020 Northern California Book Award; Gardening Secrets of the Dead; and This Many Miles from Desire. Born in Daejeon\, Korea and adopted as an infant\, Lee teaches at Fresno City College and in the low-residency MFA program at University of Nevada Reno at Lake Tahoe. \nJennifer Kwon Dobbs 허수진 – Born in Wonju\, Republic of Korea and adopted in Oklahoma\, Jennifer Kwon Dobbs 허수진 is the author of Interrogation Room (White Pine Press\, 2018)\, Paper Pavilion (White Pine\, 2007)\, and the chapbooks Notes from a Missing Person (Essay Press\, 2015) and Necro Citizens (hochroth Verlag\, 2019). Her work has received the 2023 American-Scandinavian Foundation’s Lief and Inger Sjöberg Prize for literary translation among other honors. Currently\, she is senior poetry editor of AGNI and professor and chair of English at St. Olaf College. www.jkwondobbs.com. \nRegistration\nThis event is open to all adult Asian diaspora adoptees who want to write or who identify as writers.

SUMMARY:Birmingham\, AL – There IS a Balm in Gilead: Healing from the Events of 1963 National Conference
DESCRIPTION:This year\, 2023\, the City of Birmingham commemorates sixty years since the Birmingham campaign for civil and human rights. As a part of the commemorative events\, The Historic Bethel Baptist Church of Birmingham\, Alabama\, is pleased to announce its conference on individual and community healing. \nThe conference theme is “There IS A Balm in Gilead: Healing From The Events of 1963.” The conference will take place September 12-14\, 2023 in Birmingham\, Alabama. What happened here in 1963 changed not only the city but inspired similar movements for human and civil rights across the nation and around the world. \nThose directly and indirectly involved in the Modern Civil Rights Movement were significantly affected by the events of the 1950s and 1960s. Survivors still express remorse and weep whenever they share what they experienced during that time. The goal of the conference is to open doors of communication that will help foster healing for those victims directly and indirectly as well as the community as we unpack a legacy of hurt and shame. It has been well documented that the physical\, emotional\, mental\, and intergenerational effects of trauma have lasting effects on individuals and communities. There IS A Balm in Gilead! \nThe There IS A Balm in Gilead Healing Conference is hosted by the Historic Bethel Baptist Church Community Restoration Fund\, The Minnesota Humanities Center\, and the Alabama Humanities Alliance. \nRegistration\nRegistration for this event has closed.

SUMMARY:St. Paul - Minnesota Writers Series: Rose McGee Children's Book Release
DESCRIPTION:Minnesota Humanities Center\, in partnership with Minnesota Historical Society Press\, is pleased to host the launch of Rose McGee’s new children’s book\, “Can’t Nobody Make a Sweet Potato Pie Like Our Mama!” The author and the book’s illustrator\, Christopheraaron Deanes\, will read from the book and participate in a moderated discussion around themes related to food and family. Freddie Bell\, KMOJ radio personality and Minnesota Broadcasting Hall of Fame inductee\, will moderate the discussion. The author and illustrator will be available for a book signing and discussion at a reception following the event.  Books will be available for purchase from Black Garnet Books. Part of the Minnesota Writers Series.  \nAbout the Book\nIn Rose McGee’s charming picture book (3-7 age range)\, young Marie and Landon think that their grandmother\, “Mama\,” makes the best sweet potato pies ever. The twins sometimes wonder if there might be some magic involved. Neighbors dealing with bad news or struggling with loss stop by for a slice. Sharing the pies—their sweet aroma\, their familiar texture—in Mama’s warm home brings them comfort. The twins marvel at the neighbors’ transformation. Maybe\, the twins realize\, the magic isn’t in the pies.

SUMMARY:St. Paul - Teachability Factors in General and Special Education: Harnessing Adult Data for Change
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special training for building and district administrators and school board leaders with Dr. Keith Mayes and Maria Roberts on Teachability Factors and Adult Data in General and Special Education. \nAs school districts examine and employ student data in the modification of their classroom practices\, few researchers have called for a deep examination of adult data\, and how it can be harnessed for change. Through the lens of racialized special education\, this session will examine a broad spectrum of adult data in the areas of tolerability\, efficacy\, mindset\, and relationships. We will demonstrate that when we refuse to look at school wide or adult data\, we run the risk of believing students and families are inherently flawed. Educators most often find these “flaws” in our minoritized students and communities. When we refuse to interrogate the system\, we believe it is functioning appropriately. We transfer the “problems of a system” to create the “problem student.”  \nDuring this workshop\, participants will:  \n\nDeepen their knowledge of the racialized history of special education and make connections to current practice.\nReflect on current instructional practices and teachability factors in order to improve support for effective instruction. \nIdentify current sorting and removal practices within their own districts that create inequitable outcomes within both special and general education.\nConsider how the implementation of tools or practices have either replicated or changed student outcomes.\n\nThis event is open to all Minnesota superintendents\, school board members\, equity directors\, principals\, district-level administrators\, special education directors and assistant directors.  \nRegistration fee includes: \n\nContinental breakfast\, lunch\, and snack\n6 CEUs\nA copy of “The Unteachables: Disability Rights and the Invention of Black Special Education” ($30 value)\n\nDr. Keith Mayes is an Associate Professor at the University of Minnesota; former chair of the Department of African American & African Studies; and the Horace T.

SUMMARY:St. Paul - Shakespeare in our Parks: Much Ado About Nothing
DESCRIPTION:Minnesota Humanities Center is pleased to host Classical Actors Ensemble as they bring their 9th season of Shakespeare in Our Parks live theater to MHC’s lawn. This year’s play\, which will travel to over 15 locations across the Twin Cities\, will be William Shakespeare’s “Much Ado About Nothing.” In this classic romantic comedy of manners\, a Prince and his soldiers returning from a long campaign bring excitement\, intrigue\, and passion to a rural town. Can callow youths and jaded exes both find love when malicious gossip is afoot? \nPicnics\, lawn chairs\, sunbrellas\, and blankets are welcome. Please note that the performance is in an open field with minimal shade. Please plan accordingly. Can’t make that date? Check out Classical Actors Ensemble’s full calendar for other performance across the Twin Cities this summer.  \nFrom Classical Actors Ensemble: “The Theater is a sacred place. It is a public forum where actors and audience gather to contemplate what it means to be human. Shakespeare and his contemporaries grappled with that question in some of the English language’s best poetry\, leaving behind a canon of compelling stories with universal themes that provide invigorating challenge for actors and an awe-inspiring legacy for audiences. Classical Actors Ensemble performs the plays of the English Renaissance as they were originally intended: as popular entertainment for everyone. By demonstrating why these works of art are considered classic\, we freshly prove their relevance in today’s world.” \nRegistration\nRegistration is appreciated on the Classical Actors Ensemble website but not required.  \nREGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT HAS CLOSED

SUMMARY:St. Cloud - Kumbayah The Juneteenth Story
DESCRIPTION:In 2021\, Juneteenth was written into law as a national day of observance. Following\, on February 3rd\, 2023\, Juneteenth became an official state holiday in Minnesota.  Although awareness has grown\, many people are still unfamiliar with why we celebrate Juneteenth and the insight it offers in addressing current social injustice. Minnesota Humanities Center and Sweet Potato Comfort Pie are proud to bring Kumbayah the Juneteenth Story to St. Cloud area communities in collaboration with host partner United Way of Central Minnesota and local organizations.\n  \n\nKumbayah The Juneteenth Story from iDream.tv on Vimeo. \n \nKumbayah The Juneteenth Story\, written by Rose McGee\, is a 90-minute fictitious\, two-act play that addresses a factual and traumatic time in our history – when news was deliberately withheld that Black people were no longer to be kept as slaves in this country. Storytelling and music weave together mesmerizing scenes. Although tragedy is depicted\, this play within a play is tremendously uplifting. The story begins with a Prologue set in the early 1800s in a small West African village where a young mother and her small son are being abducted from their home by slave catchers. Act One: Scene One is set in present time in a popular North Minneapolis soul-food restaurant where a group of youths and adults ultimately end up discussing what Juneteenth means. Before long they all agree to attend a play about Juneteenth. The story then shifts into 1863 on the Turner Plantation in Tyler\, Texas with the character Frederick Douglass as Narrator.  \nAlthough interpretation is best suited for ages 8 and up\, children of all ages are welcome to attend.  \nRegistration\nThe evening performance is free to attend\, but registration is required. \nRegistration Questions: registrations@mnhum.org \nREGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT HAS CLOSED

SUMMARY:St. Peter - Kumbayah The Juneteenth Story
DESCRIPTION:In 2021\, Juneteenth was written into law as a national day of observance. Following\, on February 3rd\, 2023\, Juneteenth became an official state holiday in Minnesota.  Although awareness has grown\, many people are still unfamiliar with why we celebrate Juneteenth and the insight it offers in addressing current social injustice. Minnesota Humanities Center and Sweet Potato Comfort Pie are proud to bring Kumbayah the Juneteenth Story to St. Peter and Mankato communities in collaboration with the following local host partners: True Essentials Consulting\, Juneteenth Foundation\, and St. Peter Area Public Schools.\n  \n\nKumbayah The Juneteenth Story from iDream.tv on Vimeo. \n \nKumbayah The Juneteenth Story\, written by Rose McGee\, is a 90-minute fictitious\, two-act play that addresses a factual and traumatic time in our history – when news was deliberately withheld that Black people were no longer to be kept as slaves in this country. Storytelling and music weave together mesmerizing scenes. Although tragedy is depicted\, this play within a play is tremendously uplifting. The story begins with a Prologue set in the early 1800s in a small West African village where a young mother and her small son are being abducted from their home by slave catchers. Act One: Scene One is set in present time in a popular North Minneapolis soul-food restaurant where a group of youths and adults ultimately end up discussing what Juneteenth means. Before long they all agree to attend a play about Juneteenth. The story then shifts into 1863 on the Turner Plantation in Tyler\, Texas with the character Frederick Douglass as Narrator.  \nAlthough interpretation is best suited for ages 8 and up\, children of all ages are welcome to attend.  \nRegistration\nThe evening performance is free to attend\, but registration is highly recommended. \nRegistration Questions: registrations@mnhum.org \nREGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT HAS CLOSED
