SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:(CANCELLED) Palomitas Cineclub: Festival de cine presents El abrazo de la serpiente (The Embrace of the Serpent)
DESCRIPTION:El abrazo de la serpienteCiro Guerra / Argentina\, Colombia\, Venezuela / 2015 / 125 minA breathtaking ethnographic odyssey through the heart of the Colombian Amazon\, Embrace of the Serpent  is the epic story of the first contact\, approach\, betrayal and\, eventually\, friendship\, between Karamakate\, an amazonian shaman\, last survivor of his people\, and two scientists that\, over the course of 40 years\, become the first men to travel the Northwest Amazon in search of a sacred and difficult-to-find psychedelic Yakruna plant. With nine different languages spoken during the course of the film\, this hypnotic meditation on the beauty of nature and effects of colonialism is presented with an uncommon sense of curiosity rarely seen. The crisp black and white photography captures the extraordinary landscapes with a haunting\, almost mythical sense of wonder\, while the balance between documentary-style realism and dreamlike mysticism makes for a truly poetic cinematic experience.

SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:(CANCELLED) Palomitas Cineclub: Festival de cine presents Pájaros de verano (Birds of Passage)
DESCRIPTION:Pájaros de verano (Birds of Passage)Wayuu\, English\, and Spanish with English subtitlesWith Carmiña Martínez\, José Acosta\, Natalia Reyes\, Jhon Narváez\, Greider Meza\, José Vicente Cote\, Juan Bautista MartínezACADEMY AWARD® COLOMBIA’S SUBMISSION FOR BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILMCristina Gallego and Ciro Guerra\, the creative team behind Oscar®-nominated Embrace of the Serpent (also available for your SFC festival)\, return with this inspired mob epic for the ages — a completely fresh take on the origins of the Colombian drug trade\, far from Narcos and Escobar\, as told through the story of an indigenous Wayúu family.In the 1970s\, as an American-fueled marijuana boom hits Colombia\, farmers quickly turn into seasoned businessmen starting a narco-trafficking era known as “la Bonanza Marimbera.”In the Guajira desert\, one indigenous Wayúu clan takes a leading role. Guided by matriarch Ursula Pushaina\, the “Birds of Passage”—drug runners—face the constant risk of violence and incarceration from the outsiders in Northern Colombia. The cultural differences between the native population and the newcomers begin a brutal war that threatens to destroy the Wayúu way of life. As greed\, passion\, and honor blend together over the decades\, the family’s unity\, their lives\, and their ancestral traditions are all put at stake.A true story\, the visually striking Birds of Passage is as much a thriller as it is an anthropological study on the consequences of outside influences to indigenous traditions.Palomitas Cineclub Winter 2020 Film Festival The Palomitas Cineclub\, organized by graduate students of the Romance Languages & Literatures Department\, has been awarded a Spanish Film Club Festival Grant* to sponsor public screenings of contemporary Iberoamerican film at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Birds Fly In: Oil Painting
DESCRIPTION:Birds first flew onto Ellie Harold's canvases in 2016\, appearing to her as intuitive messengers of hope and healing for troubled times. She paints intuitively to music\, spontaneously\, with no plan in mind and with as little thought as possible. She sees the first marks of black calligraphy as the hint of a language revealing bird wisdom hidden beneath successive layers of color. She paints the white layer last\, unifying all of the elements in the painting. Harold uses not only a brush\, but also fingers\, squeegee and oil sticks to capture the fleeting nature of birds. An ordained Unity minister\, Harold aims for this series to inspire the discovery of inner solutions to difficult issues that have so far eluded resolution by ordinary means.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:CANCELLED - CREES Pop-Up Exhibit. Brodsky on the Horizon
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit has been postponed due to COVID-19.  We are working to reschedule Gluklya's campus visit\, but in the meantime\, enjoy this interview which was recently conducted by our alumna Dianne Beal (BA REES '79)\, curator and art advisor of Galerie Blue Square: https://youtu.be/QHO-gCuWQjY.  \n\nIn \"Brodsky on the Horizon\" Gluklya will show the video from her latest project\, \"Carnival of Oppressed Feelings\,\" which was last exhibited in 2019 at the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven\, the Netherlands. Several examples of her \"Utopian Clothes\,\" previously used in performances and workshops\, works on paper and other selected videos will be displayed as well. These works will visualize the artist's personal connection to Joseph Brodsky’s poems and writings. The exhibit will also depict Joseph Brodsky's time at the University of Michigan\, through reproduced photographs from the Ardis Records in Special Collections of the Hatcher Library.\n   \nGluklya (Natalia Pershina-Yakimanskaya) is a visual and performance artist. Her manifesto states: “The place of the artist is on the side of the weak.” She uses clothing\, installations\, video\, participatory projects\, text\, and research to develop a concept of fragility. For Gluklya\, fragility is interpreted not as “delicate beauty” but as “invisible strength.” Her work explores topics of social exclusion\, untapped intuitive knowledge\, mind-body connections\, violation of human rights\, and stereotypes. Considered a pioneer of Russian performance art\, Gluklya is a co-founder of the Factory of Found Clothes (FFC) and the group Chto Delat (What is to be done?). In 2012\, FFC became the Utopian Unemployment Union\, a project that unites art\, social science\, and progressive pedagogy to give people from all social backgrounds an opportunity to make art together. Today\, the artist participates in many international shows including the 56th edition of the Venice Biennale (2015) and Positions #4 at the Van Abbemuseum in the Netherlands (2018-19). She has been awarded numerous art prizes and grants\, including a fellowship from the Joseph Brodsky Fellowship Memorial Fund in 2014 and support from the Mondriaan Fund for recent projects.\n   \nPresented in partnership with the Penny Stamps Distinguished Speaker Series.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at weisercenter@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Flora Series: Woven Wire Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Anne Mondro is an artist and a professor in the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design. In this body of work\, she reflects on how time spent in nature has inspired new personal discoveries and intellectual curiosity\, while serving as a positive distraction from recent experiences with grief and sadness. Drawing from these insights\, Mondro crocheted and stitched fine wire to create intricate woven sculptures reminiscent of seeds\, pods and other organic forms. Focusing on the wonderfully complex construction of these forms\, Mondro mimics nature’s ability to be structurally strong while delicate in appearance to invite deeper exploration.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Gouache Paintings
DESCRIPTION:Jaye Schlesinger is a full time painter living and working in Ann Arbor. Her work includes realist oil paintings of common everyday objects and abstracted subjects portrayed in gouache (opaque watercolor) on paper. This recent body of work evolved from years of photographing rooftops\, playgrounds\, houses and aerial views\, and digitally manipulating them to create colorful and quirky compositions. The scenes are not intended to be specific locales\, but rather to celebrate the color\, shape\, rhythm and structure found in our daily environment. Gouache is a medium which requires slow and careful application and reflects the artist’s view of painting as a meditative pursuit.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Migrations: Fiber Notes from the Journey
DESCRIPTION:Migration has profoundly affected the life and perspective of the Michigan-based fiber artist\, Martina Celerin. Celerin’s family emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada in 1968 as political refugees escaping Soviet rule. Both a molecular geneticist and artist\, her artistic medium is a sophisticated blend of highly dimensional weaving\, crochet\, needle felting\, and other fiber-based techniques that incorporates everyday reclaimed and recycled materials to help tell a story. The pieces on exhibit are drawn from a larger body of work that translates the extraordinary challenges of modern-day human migration and notes the parallel phenomena in animals.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:What We Hold\, What Holds Us: Homes & Vessels
DESCRIPTION:Although Candace Compton Pappas is recognized primarily as a painter\, this series of constructed homes and vessels represents an important facet of her life as an artist. Over the years\, she has collected\, saved\, garbage-rescued\, and gathered objects that capture her attention. A firm believer that there is no such thing as garbage\, and a great observer of nature’s cycle of creating and breaking down\, she has constructed numerous cement vessels to hold all these objects that proliferate the studio. These finds\, the vessels that hold them\, and the totems that pay tribute to them\, all keep her company\, inspire her\, and keep her calm in her temple-like studio in the woods outside of Chelsea\, Michigan.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Dear Stranger: Diaries for the Private and Public Self
DESCRIPTION:Through this exhibit\, we invite you to explore more than two centuries of diaries and diary-like documents from across the holdings of the Special Collections Research Center\, ranging from privately emotive to publicly informative\, from offering news reportage to depicting emotional processing\, and from factual to purely fictional. As you read\, consider how these journals embody elements of both private and public writing and the permeability between those spheres.\n\nDiaries\, journals\, daily planners\, notebooks: these ephemeral writings provide documentation of private lives and thoughts that can otherwise be difficult to find in the historical record. But does “private” necessarily imply unfiltered and unmediated? Many theorists have noted that the diarist is both writer and reader\, both private and public self. Therefore the content and form of diaries are created for future reading\, even if only by a future version of the self. The ambiguity of a diary’s audience is heightened in the case of published diaries. The form suggests that we\, as readers\, are accessing raw\, unfiltered thoughts\, but rounds of revision are common\, and often essential to clearly convey the intended meaning. Even further from our notions of authentic\, private writing\, fictional diaries are written solely to be published and read by the public\, but use the diary form to draw the reader into a particular relationship with the text and its protagonist.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the 60s and 70s: Kaleidoscope
DESCRIPTION:The notion that abstraction was a purely formal and American art form\, concerned only with timeless themes disconnected from the present\, was met with increased skepticism in the midst of the political and cultural upheavals of the 1960s and 70s. Kaleidoscope\, UMMA’s third and final edition of this exhibition series\, examines the constantly changing practices of local Detroit artists\, women artists\, and artists of color as they actively embraced abstraction’s possibilities. Their strategies dramatically transformed the practice of abstraction in a shifting American political landscape.\n\nSupport for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment\, the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund\, and the Robert and Janet Miller Fund

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Cullen Washington\, Jr.: The Public Square
DESCRIPTION:This expansive look at the work and concerns of emerging contemporary artist Cullen Washington\, Jr. pivots around the artist’s most recent series\, Agoras. The compositions explore the ancient Greek public space as a site for activated assembly and the heart of the artistic\, spiritual\, and political life of the city. UMMA’s installation is designed with an actual public square at its center\, complete with sound components featuring noted political and aesthetic discourse and surrounded by Washington’s soaring monumental collages. Works from four earlier series by the artist form the perimeter of the Museum’s largest special exhibition space. The artist describes his work as “abstract meditations on the grid and humanity.”\n\nLead support for this exhibition is provided by Erica Gervais Pappendick and Ted Pappendick\, Candy and Michael Barasch\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs\, and the Institute for the Humanities. Additional generous support is provided by the University of Michigan Department of History of Art\, School of Education\, Department of Afroamerican and African Studies\, School of Social Work\, and Gerald R.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Reflections: An Ordinary Day
DESCRIPTION:UMMA’s second exhibition of Inuit art derived from the Power Family’s generous promised gift to the Museum in 2018 explores the relationship between the artist and the representation of everyday experiences. Through a selection of mid-century to contemporary Inuit prints\, drawings\, and sculptures that portray seemingly ordinary reflections of daily life along with daydreaming meditations\, the exhibition bridges the mundane and the fantastic. Together\, these artworks present a distinct imagery and a visual poetry culled from the day-to-day reality of life in the far polar north. The perspectives range from soaring gazes at the horizon to glimpses of commonplace social interactions. These contemplations reveal intimate connections among the artists\, their communities\, and their locale—a specific place and time composed of icy regions and vast seas and tundras. Reflections: An Ordinary Day takes visitors on a lyrical journey of the myriad spaces and routines within an Arctic landscape.\n\nThis exhibition is made possible by the Power Family Program for Inuit Art\, established in 2018 through the generosity of Philip and Kathy Power.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Witness Lab
DESCRIPTION:Designed as a courtroom installation and a performance series by Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Courtney McClellan\, Witness Lab frames witnessing as a social and artistic act. The gallery collapses courtroom\, theater\, classroom\, laboratory\, and artist studio in order to study the relationship between performance and law. In hosting mock trials\, court transcript readings\, and trial advocacy workshops\, the artist investigates who performs the role of witness in our society and how that understanding may map onto the narrower legal definition of the role. The installation will host legal simulations from participating groups\, including the Trial Advocacy Society and the Oral Argument Competition from the University of Michigan Law School\, as well as the undergraduate team of the Collegiate American Mock Trial Association. Taking the role of courtroom sketch artists\, or court reporters\, students from the U-M Stamps School of Art and Design will observe and document the courtroom performances through drawing\, text\, photography\, and video.\n\nWitness Lab is presented in partnership with the Roman J. Witt Artist in Residence Program of the Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design\, with lead support provided by the University of Michigan Law School and Office of the Provost.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELED: MIPSE Seminar | Journey to the Sun
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: \nNASA Heliophysics research studies a vast system stretching from the Sun to Earth to far beyond the edge of the planets.  Studying this system – much of it driven by the Sun’s constant outpouring of solar wind – not only helps us understand fundamental infor-mation about how the universe works\, but also helps protect our technology and astronauts in space. NASA seeks knowledge of near-Earth space\, because\, when extreme\, space weather can interfere with our com-munications\, satellites and power grids. The study of the Sun and space can also teach us more about how stars contribute to the habitability of planets through-out the universe.  \n     Mapping out this interconnected system requires a holistic study of the Sun’s influence on space\, Earth and other planets.  NASA has a fleet of spacecraft stra-tegically placed throughout our heliosphere – from Parker Solar Probe at the Sun observing the very start of the solar wind\, to satellites around Earth\, to the far-thest human-made object\, Voyager\, which is sending back observations on interstellar space. Each mission is positioned at a critical\, well-thought out vantage point to observe and understand the flow of energy and particles throughout the solar system\, and all helping us untagle the effects of the star we live with.\n\nAbout the speaker:\nDr. Nicola Fox is the Heliophysics Division Director in the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington\, DC. Until August 2018\, Dr. Fox worked at the Applied Physics Lab at the Johns Hopkins University where she was the Chief Scientist for Heliophysics and the project scientist for NASA’s Parker Solar Probe. Dr. Fox served as the deputy project scientist for the Van Allen Probes\, and the operations scientist for the International Solar Terrestrial Physics program. Fox received her BS in Physics and PhD in Space and Atmospheric Physics from the Imperial College of Science\, Technology and Medicine in London. She received an MS in Telematics and Satellite Communications from the University of Surrey.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:POSTPONED: Speaking American English
DESCRIPTION:ALL UCLL EVENTS HAVE BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. \n\nAre you looking to increase confidence in your use of American English? The University Center for Language and Literacy (UCLL) at U-M offers a special workshop designed for non-native English speakers who want to expand their communication skills. Our program provides the perfect environment for you to reach your personal goals and we’re registering now!\n\nOur certified Speech and Language Pathologists use techniques technically known as accent reduction to help non-native speakers feel more at home in their communications — whether that’s giving a presentation or taking notes in a class with a native speaker with a fast cadence. The goal of the program is certainly not to eliminate the accents of our clients\, but to enhance communication skills for greater confidence in all settings. Participants will set their own individual objectives at the start of the workshop and will work to reach those goals using a combination of small group activities and one-on-one interaction\, facilitated by a Speech and Language Pathologist.\nThe workshop will run from February 5 to April 15\, 2020. Participants meet weekly on Wednesdays from 3:30-4:30 p.m. There will be no meeting on March 4. \nIf you have questions\, need assistance\, or want more information\, please call (734) 764-8440 or visit https://mari.umich.edu/ucll

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CANCELLED - Lecture | Sojourners\, Smugglers\, and Dubious Citizens: The Politics of Armenian Migration to North America\, 1885-1915
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately\, and due to unforeseen circumstances\, this event has been cancelled.\n\nBetween 1885 and 1915\, roughly eighty thousand Armenians migrated between the Ottoman Empire and North America. For much of this period\, Ottoman state authorities viewed Armenian migrants\, particularly those who returned to the empire after sojourns abroad\, as a political threat to the empire’s security. Istanbul worked vigorously to prevent Armenians both from migrating to and returning from North America. In response\, dense smuggling networks emerged to assist migrants in bypassing this migration ban. The dynamics that shaped the evolution of these networks resemble those that drive the phenomenon of migrant smuggling in the present day. Furthermore\, migrants who returned home found themselves stuck in an uneasy legal limbo as both Ottoman and United States governments disavowed them as citizens\, leaving them vulnerable to deportation from their own ancestral lands. As this talk contends\, the Armenian migratory experience in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries both parallels and sheds light on themes such as smuggling\, deportation\, and the criminalization of migration\, that are central to the issue of global migration in the 21st century.\n\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to us at least 2 weeks in advance of this event. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Auditions:Live Event Canceled - Abigail DeVille: Only When It’s Dark Enough Can You See the Stars
DESCRIPTION:Live event canceled: To limit the potential spread of respiratory viruses and safeguard those at highest risk of catching COVID-19\, the University of Michigan has canceled all live events with estimated attendance of over 100 people. \n\nAs a result\, live Penny Stamps Speaker Series events will not take place as scheduled. When possible\, our weekly presentations will be available online: video presentations will be announced via email and on the Stamps website (https://stamps.umich.edu/stamps).\n\nNew York-based artist Abigail DeVille creates immersive works and installations designed to bring attention to forgotten stories\, such as with the sculpture she built on the site of a former African American burial ground in Harlem. With family roots reaching back at least two generations\, DeVille’s work about New York City is both personal and political. Acting as an archaeologist\, DeVille collects and reallocates found materials to give physical presence to unspoken stories and forgotten pasts. Her work often focuses around themes of displacement\, migration\, marginalization\, and cultural invisibility. As an extension of her installation practice\, DeVille also designs sets for theatrical productions\, including the Stratford Festival in Canada and Harlem Stage. Her work is part of some of the most prestigious collections in the world and has been exhibited internationally\, including at the Institute of Contemporary Art\, Los Angeles\; the Studio Museum in Harlem\, New York\; the Pinchuk Art Centre in Ukraine\; the New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York\; and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. An honors fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard\, a Creative Capital grantee\, and an OBIE Award for Design recipient\, DeVille is currently in residence at the American Academy in Rome.\n\nCo-presented with the U-M Institute for Humanities\, presenting No Space Hidden (Under Heaven)\, an exhibition of work by Abigail DeVille\, on view at the IH Gallery April 1–May 7\, 2020.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:[POSTPONED] Deep Regionalism: Discovering Great Lakes Literature
DESCRIPTION:*** Update 3/11/20: This event has been postponed. It will be rescheduled at a later date. ***\n\nThe French\, English\, and American literatures of the Great Lakes begin in the sixteenth century. The American continues into the present. Native literatures\, in several languages from three major language families\, are far older and continue as well. These are true maritime literatures that are too frequently described as Midwestern\, but have nothing to do with farming and little to do with cities except as ports.\n\nLakes literatures are international\, multi-cultural\, and multi-lingual because the lakes have always been a commercial highway\, used for resource extraction and commodity handling by several Native nations and three countries. They were the site of the first métis culture in North America. Their ease of access allowed earlier women writers to experience the frontier without the difficulties and dangers inherent in a trip to the far west\, while 19th and 20th century commercial traffic provided work for women in lighthouses and on ships. Their shared border with Canada allowed them to be a vital link in the Underground Railroad\, and their maritime traditions of craft skill provided jobs for people of color when remunerative work on shore was closed to them. Lakes literature is a record of lives on the lakes over centuries\, tracing war\, industrialization\, environmental degradation\, and recovery.\n\nThis lecture is part of the Clements Library's Randolph G. Adams Lecture Series and is co-sponsored by the College of Literature\, Science\, and the Arts\, Great Lakes Theme Semester. Victoria Brehm\, PhD\, is an author and researcher of Great Lakes literary and cultural history. She recently was awarded the Patrick Labadie Award for Historic Preservation from the Association for Great Lakes Maritime History in recognition of her many years of making neglected and unknown texts about the lakes available to readers.

SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:(CANCELLED) Palomitas Cineclub: Festival de cine presents Tempestad (Tempest)
DESCRIPTION:Tempest (Tempestad)\n Tatiana Huezo / Mexico / 2016 / 105 minA poignant doc by celebrated filmmaker Tatiana Huezo\, Tempest narrates the parallel journey of two women. Mirror-like\, it reflects the impact of the violence and impunity that afflict Mexico. Through their voices\, we are drawn into the heart of their feelings\, steeped in loss and pain\, but also love\, dignity\, and resistance.On a normal day on her way to work\, Miriam is arrested on suspicion of human trafficking. While the government reports that a criminal gang has been rounded up\, in reality a group of innocent Mexicans has fallen victim to the vagaries of a corrupt system. After her detention\, she is handed over to a private prison controlled by the Organized Crime\, where she is forced to pay a monthly fee to remain alive.Adela works as a clown in a traveling circus. Ten years ago\, her life was irreversibly transformed\; every night during the show\, she evokes her missing daughter\, Monica.Tempest has screened at more than 60 film festivals worldwide\, collecting awards in Berlin\, Lima\, Havana\, Madrid\, Cork\, and many others. Palomitas Cineclub Winter 2020 Film Festival The Palomitas Cineclub\, organized by graduate students of the Romance Languages & Literatures Department\, has been awarded a Spanish Film Club Festival Grant* to sponsor public screenings of contemporary Iberoamerican film at the University of Michigan. All films will be screened in their original languages with English subtitles. The series will be free and open to the public.Combining the funds from the Spanish Film Club Festival Grant* with additional financial support from within the university\, we will screen six contemporary Latin American feature films and documentaries between February 26 and April 3 on Wednesday evenings at 7 pm in the Modern languages Building\, 1220 (Lecture Room 1):Frágil equilibrio (Guillermo García Lopez\, 2016)\, Tempestad (Tatiana Huezo\, 2016)\, Ixcanul\, Volcán (Jayro Bustamante\, 2015)\, La soledad (Jorge Thielen-Armand\, 2016)\, El abrazo de la serpiente (Ciro Guerra\, 2015) and Pájaros de verano (Ciro Guerra and Cristina Gallego\, 2018). Each screening will be followed by an informal discussion session during which the audience is invited to discuss the film.We welcome everyone to participate in a space of cultural engagement where undergraduate and graduate students can come together to practice their language skills and partake in critical discussions of cinema. *The Spanish Film Club Festival Grant was made possible with the support of Pragda\, SPAIN arts & culture\, and the Secretary of State for Culture of Spain.

SUMMARY:Ceremony / Service:CANCELLED - Jaclyn Friedman's \"Believe Me\" Book Reading & Signing
DESCRIPTION:University Students Against Rape\, Standing Tough Against Rape Society\, and Literati Bookstore are delighted to welcome Jaclyn Friedman to the downtown branch of the Ann Arbor District Library for a reading and signing in support of her latest publication\, Believe Me: How Trusting Women Can Change the World. This event is free and open to the public. A Q&A and book signing will follow the reading.\n\nAbout the book: \n\nIn Believe Me\, contributors ask and answer the crucial question: What would happen if we didn’t just believe women\, but acted as though they matter? If we take women’s experiences of online harassment seriously\, it will transform the internet. If we listen to and center survivors\, we could revolutionize our systems of justice. If we believe Black women when they talk about pain\, we will save countless lives. With contributions from many of the most important voices in feminism today\, Believe Me is an essential roadmap for the #MeToo era and beyond.\n\nJaclyn Friedman is a writer\, educator and activist\, and creator of four books Yes Means Yes: Visions of Female Sexual Power and a World Without Rape (one of Publishers’ Weekly’s Top 100 Books of 2009)\, What You Really Want: The Smart Girl’s Shame-Free Guide to Sex & Safety\, Unscrewed: Women\, Sex\, Power and How to Stop Letting the System Screw Us All\, and her latest\, Believe Me: How Trusting Women Can Change the World.
