Stolen: Five Free Boys Kidnapped into Slavery and Their Astonishing Odyssey Home (October 26, 2020 7:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/76545 76545-19830116@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, October 26, 2020 7:00pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: William L. Clements Library

Join us for a talk with Dr. Richard Bell, who will share the incredible story of five boys whose courage forever changed the fight against slavery in America.

Philadelphia, 1825: five young, free black boys fall into the clutches of the most fearsome gang of kidnappers and slavers in the United States. Lured onto a small ship with the promise of food and pay, they are instead met with blindfolds, ropes, and knives. Over four long months, their kidnappers drive them overland into the Cotton Kingdom to be sold as slaves. Determined to resist, the boys form a tight brotherhood as they struggle to free themselves and find their way home.

Their ordeal—an odyssey that takes them from the Philadelphia waterfront to the marshes of Mississippi and then onward still—shines a glaring spotlight on the Reverse Underground Railroad, a black market network of human traffickers and slave traders who stole away thousands of legally free African Americans from their families in order to fuel slavery’s rapid expansion in the decades before the Civil War.

Dr. Richard Bell is a Professor of History at the University of Maryland. He is the author of the new book *Stolen: Five Free Boys Kidnapped into Slavery and their Astonishing Odyssey Home* which is shortlisted for the George Washington Prize and the Harriet Tubman Prize. He has won more than a dozen teaching awards, including the University System of Maryland Board of Regents Faculty Award for Excellence in Teaching, the highest honor for teaching faculty in the Maryland state system. Rick has held major research fellowships at Yale, Cambridge, and the Library of Congress and is the recipient of the National Endowment of the Humanities Public Scholar award. He serves as a Trustee of the Maryland Historical Society, as an elected member of the Colonial Society of Massachusetts, and as a fellow of the Royal Historical Society.

To order a signed copy of STOLEN directly from the author, send an email to rjbell(at)umd.edu with your shipping address. Payment options include Venmo, PayPal, Amazon gift card, cash, or check. Signed copies of STOLEN are $20, including delivery.

Organized By: School of Social Work

This webinar, hosted by the Parenting in Context Lab, will present research on how social work faculty have used Twitter for connection and advocacy, before and after the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The conditions of the pandemic have contributed to social isolation and stress among many social workers and the populations they serve. The role of technology and social media for social work practice are currently amplified. This presentation, drawing from data on hundreds of social work faculty, will describe how social workers can leverage Twitter as a professional resource for connection and advocacy.

Some students are beginning to return to face-to-face school after months of remote learning during the pandemic.

For many parents, there are still big questions about safety, including protecting their families from exposure to the virus and how children and schools may contribute to COVID-19 transmission in communities.

Families may also face behavioral, social and emotional challenges as children and teens readjust (again) to a new normal in their learning environments.

Experts from U-M's C.S. Mott Children's Hospital will answer some of families’ top questions about returning to in-person learning.

Topics to be addressed include:
• What research says about transmission and COVID-19 health risks in kids
• Contact with at-risk family members like grandparents
• How to know if your child should stay home from school
• Making decisions about continuing remote learning
• Helping kids adjust to the new school normal
• Supporting kids’ emotional, social and mental health
• Managing behavioral challenges during the transition
• Advice for families of children with special learning needs
• Re-engaging children who may have been disengaged during remote learning
• How to respond (and how not to respond) to disappointed teens who continue to miss milestones
And more

Viewers may ask questions live at the time of the event or add them to the event discussion area here to be considered.

The discussion will be moderated by developmental behavioral pediatrician Jenny Radesky, M.D., and the panel will also include pediatric infectious disease specialist Alison Tribble, M.D., and Terry Bravender, M.D., chief of adolescent medicine at Mott.

Broadcast live on @mottchildren Facebook and Twitter channels as well as Michigan Medicine's YouTube channel

The Future of Art "Art and Activism: Designing the Memorial to Enslaved Laborers at the University of Virginia" (February 8, 2021 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/81591 81591-20929543@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, February 8, 2021 4:00pm

ere.

The University of Virginia—designed by Thomas Jefferson and now recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site—was built and maintained by 4,000 or more enslaved men, women, and children. UVA’s powerful new Memorial to Enslaved Laborers honors the lives, labors, and resistance of the enslaved people who lived and worked at UVA at some point between 1817 and 1865.

This interview with members of the memorial’s design team will explore the history, form, and process behind the creation of the memorial. Panelists: Mabel Wilson, Meejin Yoon, Eric Höweler, and Eto Otitigbe, with U-M's Kristin Hass as interviewer. 

~   Eric Höweler, AIA, LEED AP,  is an associate professor in architecture at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design, where he teaches lecture courses and design studios with a focus on building technologies/integration. He is a co-founding principal of  Höweler + Yoon Architecture LLP, a research-driven, multidisciplinary design studio working between architecture, art, and media. HYA has a reputation for work that is technologically and formally innovative, and deeply informed by human experience, and a sensitivity to tectonics. 

Eto Otitigbe is a polymedia artist whose interdisciplinary practice investigates the intersections of race, power, and technology. With history as the foundation for exploration, Otitigbe sets alternative narratives into motion; creating spaces for people to experience a unique mixture of concepts. Otitigbe lives and works in Brooklyn, NY where is an Assistant Professor and Head of Sculpture in the Art Department of Brooklyn College.

Mabel O. Wilson is the Nancy and George Rupp Professor of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, a professor in African American and African diasporic studies, director of the Institute for Research in African American Studies, and co-director of the Global Africa Lab at Columbia University. She is trained in architecture and American studies, two fields that inform her work. Through her transdisciplinary practice Studio &, Wilson makes visible and legible the ways that anti-black racism shapes the built environment along with the ways that blackness creates spaces of imagination, refusal, and desire. 

J. Meejin Yoon, AIA FAAR, is an architect, designer, and educator, whose projects and research investigate the intersections between architecture, technology, and the public realm. Prior to joining the faculty at AAP, Yoon was at MIT for 17 years and served as the head of the Department of Architecture from 2014–18. Yoon is cofounding principal of Höweler and Yoon Architecture. 

Kristin Hass is associate professor of American culture and faculty coordinator for the Humanities Collaboratory at the University of Michigan. She is the author of Carried to the Wall: American Memory and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial (1998) and Sacrificing Soldiers on the National Mall (2013). Her fields of study include visual culture, material culture, museum studies, memory, and 20th-century cultural history.

This is the first in a series of annual Art and Activism lectures as part of High Stakes Art, a project designed to enhance exhibitions and programming at the Institute for the Humanities Gallery. High Stakes Art and this lecture are made possible by a generous grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

Presented by the Institute for the Humanities and the U-M Arts Initiative.

The Future of Art Series is hosted by the U-M Arts Initiative as part of a two-year startup phase.

Portraits of Lincoln (A Public Lecture of the Residential College & Program in the Environment Course Children Under Fire) (February 16, 2021 2:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/81932 81932-20990913@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, February 16, 2021 2:30pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Residential College

Join us for Portraits of Lincoln on Tuesday, February 16, from 2:30-3:30pm to learn about the consequences of early reading, the boyhood of Lincoln, and the politics of education and self-improvement of one of our most revered presidents. We'll be hearing from:

>>> Dave Choberka, Ph.D. Andrew W. Mellon Curator for University Learning and Programs at the University of Michigan Museum of Art;

>>> Julia Mickenberg, Professor of American Studies, University of Texas at Austin

>>> Liz Goodenough, RC lecturer in Arts & Ideas in the Humanities

In course Children Under Fire: Narratives of Sustainability (RCHUMS 337 / ENVIRON 337) taught by Liz Goodenough, students learn that literature for and about children, from the earliest folk tales, has always addressed life and death. In diverse genres, from horror story to high adventure, from rags to riches, young heroes sustain themselves in the face of adult decisions regarding scarcity (food and water), violence, illness, and abuse. This environmental humanities seminar examines how early reading mediated crises challenging the future lives of US Presidents and First Ladies--from Andrew Jackson and James Garfield to Eleanor Roosevelt and Barack Obama.

Organized By: Kelsey Museum of Archaeology

This event is over, but all the activities can be found at the Kelsey@Home page, https://lsa.umich.edu/kelsey/education/kelsey-home.html.

During the pandemic we have heard a lot about “self-care,” but what exactly does that mean? At the most basic level, it is how we take care of ourselves. The food we eat, the exercise we do to stay healthy, and the medicine we take when we get sick. However, self-care is more than that. It includes all the things we do to stay happy and healthy. That could be taking a walk or a run outside, or doing some arts and crafts. Maybe it’s playing a favorite sport with friends, or trying a new recipe.

During this virtual Family Week, we’ll learn about how people in the ancient Mediterranean practiced self-care. We’ll even try out some of their techniques for ourselves.

We kick off the week with an introductory tour about ancient self-care. Be sure to join us on Sunday, March 28, at 2 PM. We will take a closer look at some objects in the Kelsey collection related to health and wellness. Join us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96083862910.

We kick off the week with an introductory tour about ancient self-care. Be sure to join us on Sunday, March 28, at 2 PM. We will take a closer look at some objects in the Kelsey collection related to health and wellness. Join us on Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96083862910.

During the pandemic we have heard a lot about “self-care,” but what exactly does that mean? At the most basic level, it is how we take care of ourselves. The food we eat, the exercise we do to stay healthy, and the medicine we take when we get sick. However, self-care is more than that. It includes all the things we do to stay happy and healthy. That could be taking a walk or a run outside, or doing some arts and crafts. Maybe it’s playing a favorite sport with friends, or trying a new recipe.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (50+)

Deep learning in early childhood takes place through nurturing interactions with caregivers and meaningful engagement with real-life problems. This presentation will examine the roots of deep learning by exploring early learning in indigenous forager communities in Cameroon and in the Americas. We will redefine “education” away from “schooling” and towards developing independence. We will explore play-based learning, adult roles in facilitating it, and individual versus collective orientations of education through a cross-cultural lens. Participants will gain understanding of diverse learning pathways in early childhood and strategies to support deep learning at home. This study group led by Sarah Strader will meet Wednesday April 21. Preregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.
