Mass Incarceration: A WeListen Staff Discussion (January 25, 2019 11:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/59327 59327-14730608@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, January 25, 2019 11:00am

Mass Incarceration: A WeListen Staff Discussion

This session of WeListen is open to all UM staff members. All voices and views are welcome and lunch will be provided!

RSVP here: http://myumi.ch/6wE9n

The U.S. has the most incarcerated people in the world: 2.1 million. The corrections system costs $81B annually, while corporations make $7.4B from private prisons and $2B+ from prison labor. Black and Hispanic Americans are overrepresented in U.S. prisons and 83% of formerly incarcerated people are rearrested within 9 years of release.

Is mass incarceration working? Why are racial minorities overrepresented? Should the U.S. consider different sentencing and correctional models? Has privatization in our justice system gone too far, or not far enough?

Join us at this WeListen Staff Session to learn about mass incarceration and to participate in small group discussions about this complex topic. Our aim is to bring liberals, conservatives, libertarians- everyone across the political spectrum- together for constructive conversation. The goal of WeListen discussions is not to debate or argue, but to understand the views and values of others and to learn from their perspectives. The session will begin with a brief content presentation to provide a basic understanding of the topic. No specific level of knowledge is required to participate in WeListen discussions.


By participating in WeListen sessions, staff members will:
- Expand understanding of a prominent political topic
- Practice discussing difficult topics with others,
- Gain openness to new ideas and perspectives,
- Learn to productively challenge an idea, and
- Form a sense of community among fellow staff members.

Questions? Email us at welistenstaff@umich.edu.

This event is co-sponsored by the UM Office of DEI and the LSA DEI Implementation Leads. The planning committee includes staff members from the Ginsberg Center, the LSA Dean's Office, and LSA Psychology.

Precision Health February Seminar (February 13, 2019 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/60260 60260-14855603@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, February 13, 2019 4:00pm
Location: Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.)
Organized By: Precision Health

In recognition of Black History Month, Precision Health at the University of Michigan (U-M) invites you to attend a seminar, Wednesday, February 13, to hear guest presenter Minoli Perera, PharmD, PhD, Associate Professor of Pharmacology at Northwestern University, speak on "African Ancestry Omics."

The event, free and open to the public, will include a presentation with time allocated for discussion. Registration [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/u-m-precision-health-seminar-february-2019-tickets-54719867597] is requested by Monday, February 11 (or will close when full).

Abstract:

Racial minorities have been consistently excluded from most genomic studies, and their data compose only a small fraction of what is publicly available. These studies and data, however, are key to the translations and implementation of precision medicine. To address this growing health disparity in precision medicine, we use not only genomics, but also other high-complexity datasets (e.g., transcriptomics) to discover the genomic predictors of drug responses, as well as the biological underpinnings that drive genetic associations. Our work finds important associations of African-American–specific SNPs in pharmacogenomics, and also novel genes that contribute to drug response, disease, and adverse events. These types of studies shed light on the unique contributions the African-American genome can make to precision medicine and the critical need for greater diversity in genomic medicine.

On Valentine's Day 2019, we invite you to a 201st birthday party for Frederick Douglass.

Although Douglass was born into bondage, and never knew his birthdate, he chose to celebrate every year on February 14th. We'll commemorate his birthday by reading and discussing Black authored texts by and about Douglass and his wife Anna Douglass. Opening remarks will be made by library staff, and we'll celebrate with cake and treats. We will also be live-streaming simultaneous events occurring at the African American Museum of Philadelphia and the Colored Conventions Project at the University of Delaware.

In recent years, student protests have sprung up related to the racial climate on college campuses. Schools like Missouri, Yale, and even locally at Eastern and U of M are standing up to social injustices; however, many people are still unaware of the challenges facing Black scholars at institutions across the county.

While students are trying to get their voices heard, faculty are still being hindered as their professional reputation hangs on the line. Join us as we discuss the challenges and opportunities of Black Academics.

Organized By: National Center for Institutional Diversity

As students of color at the University of Michigan, some experiences can cause or worsen stress, anxiety, and isolation. Everyday experiences of racism, discrimination, or just subtly being made to feel “different” or like we don’t belong can cause our academics and social lives to suffer. This negatively impacts our mental wellbeing. Many students of color face the challenge of finding supportive and trusting resources that relate to their mental health experiences. Finding the solution to this lack of support has been a conversation that's been halted on campus for too long. At Wellness in Color, we aim to tackle this challenge by facilitating dialogues to initiate the mental health conversation in our community.

We invite you to join us to talk about how students of color have persevered despite difficult moments at Michigan and how faculty and staff can play a role in creating a learning environment where students of color can thrive.

This student pre-conference is designed and facilitated by U-M students of color as part of the national Young, Gifted, @Risk, and Resilient Conference which aims to promote the mental health and well being among students of color.

Sponsors:
The Steve Fund, National Center for Institutional Diversity (NCID), Program on Intergroup Relations (IGR), Trotter Multicultural Center (TMC), and the Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs (MESA) office.
