SUMMARY:The Great Northern Festival - Learning from Place: Bdote
DESCRIPTION:Learning from Place: Bdote is an immersive experience offered by the Minnesota Humanities Center that invites participants to visit\, inhabit\, and expand their understanding of Twin Cities sites with deep significance to Dakota people.

A Minnesota state parks vehicle permit is required (one-day permits are available for $7 and can be purchased online or at any Minnesota state park office). \nRegistration\nRegistration for this event must be made through the Great Northern Festival website. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:Duluth - Kumbayah The Juneteenth Story
DESCRIPTION:In 2021\, Juneteenth was written into law as a national day of observance\, yet many people are unfamiliar with its meaning and the insight it offers in addressing current social injustice. Minnesota Humanities Center is honored to collaborate with Duluth Public Schools\, Sweet Potato Comfort Pie and the greater Duluth community to bring the significance of this day to life. \nKumbayah The Juneteenth Story\, written by Rose McGee\, is a 90-minute  two-act  dramatization of a traumatic time in our history – when news was deliberately withheld that Black people were no longer enslaved 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. Stay for a post-show discussion with the cast moderated by Carl Crawford from the Duluth Office of Human Rights. \nOpen seating will begin at 6:45 p.m.  The show will start promptly at 7:00 p.m. \nRegistration\nThe performance is free to attend but registration is required in managing seating capacity. \nOpen seating will begin at 6:45 p.m.  The show will start promptly at 7:00 p.m. \nREGISTRATION FOR THIS EVENT HAS CLOSED

SUMMARY:St. Cloud and ONLINE - Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times
DESCRIPTION:Engage in lively thought-provoking conversations on what it means to live a virtuous life. There are numerous reasons the insights of ancient philosophers such as Epicurus\, Confucius\, and Aristotle have stood the test of time. \n  \n“Let no one be slow to seek wisdom when he is young nor weary in the search of it when he has grown old. For no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul.” Epicurus \n“To know what you know and what you do not know is the mark of one who knows.” Confucius \n“Happiness is an activity in accordance with virtue.” Aristotle \n  \nWhat they have to offer continues to remain instructive today. In this four-session course\, we will examine selections of text from these ancient figures\, seeking not only to evaluate their claims\, but also inquiring how we might apply their lessons to our lives today. \nThis course will be led by John Houston\, longtime philosophy professor (most recently at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University) and instructor with Wisdom’s Edge\, a nonprofit organization committed to bringing philosophy to all. \nSchedule\nJuly 21\, 2022 – 4:00-5:30 p.m. CST\nJuly 28\, 2022 – 4:00-5:30 p.m. CST\nAugust 4\, 2022 – 4:00-5:30 p.m. CST\nAugust 11\, 2022 – 4:00-5:30 p.m. CST \n*$40 is the fee for all four sessions. \n \nParticipants are expected to attend all four sessions. \nRegistration\nWhile all are welcome to participate\, we especially encourage participation from those 55+\, as we value the rich history of life experiences to relate to the material and to other individuals in the class.
