SUMMARY:"A Death in the City" Film Screening and Community Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Teaching Cleveland\, in association with playwright Faye Sholiton and filmmaker Marquette Williams\, with generous support from America250 and the Ohio Humanities Council\, is offering facilitated community conversations to accompany the viewing of “A Death in the City: In the Wake of Segregation” as a part of the project called “On Our Watch” focused on using history to empower individuals to create a better future.  \n\n\n\nThe film recounts the stories of nine individuals involved in the tense decades following World War II\, when civil rights activists around the country coalesced into a movement to change the racial hierarchy that had dominated so many institutions and systems in this country. Black Americans and their allies fought discrimination in the military\, at the voting polls\, and in trying to secure housing\, bank loans\, and jobs. Most notably\, they aimed to eliminate racial discrimination in the education system in the hopes that American society would move closer to the promises laid out in the country’s founding documents. Most of the events depicted and described in the film took place in the 1950s and 1960s in Cleveland\, Ohio\, and the narratives center around the death of civil rights activist Rev. Bruce Klunder in 1964. \n\n\n\nThis program is presented at no cost\, but registration is required – please click this link to register. Parking is available in the Cleveland History Center’s visitor lot (enter from Magnolia Drive) at regular museum rates.

SUMMARY:Author Talk with Yardena Schwartz
DESCRIPTION:The Cleveland Jewish Book Festival is back for its 25th year! Join Yardena Schwartz to discuss her book\, Ghosts of a Holy War. \n\n\n\nThe 1929 massacre of the ancient Jewish community of Hebron was one of the most seminal events in the Arab-Israeli conflict–until October 7\, 2023. One century apart\, the echoes of 1929 in 2023 are key to understanding the complexities of what is\, at its core\, a holy war between Abraham’s children. Through the never-before-told story of a young American who moved to what was then Palestine in 1928\, Schwartz expertly weaves 100 years of history in the Holy Land to demonstrate how the issues today cannot be fully understood without the context of ground zero of this century-old war. \n\n\n\nYardena Schwartz is an award-winning freelance journalist and Emmy-nominated producer who lived in Israel from 2013–2023\, reporting for various publications\, including The New York Times\, Wall Street Journal\, TIME\, The Economist\, Foreign Policy and National Geographic. She has reported from Israel and the West Bank\, Morocco\, Nepal\, Ukraine\, Poland\, France\, Germany\, and the United States. \n\n\n\nYardena previously worked at NBC News headquarters in New York\, including stints at The Today Show\, Nightly News with Brian Williams\, and Andrea Mitchell Reports. Yardena graduated with honors from Columbia Journalism School and is a recipient of the 2016 RNA award for excellence in magazine reporting. \n\n\n\n“[A] compelling story. . . . If you are going to read one book to help you understand the current Middle East tragedy\, this is it.” \n\n\n\n—Yossi Klein Halevi\, senior fellow\, Shalom Hartman Institute\, and author of the New York Times bestseller Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor \n\n\n\nThis event is free\, but please register here. \n\n\n\nSponsor: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is part of the Cleveland Jewish Book Festival\, supported in part by an Ohio Humanities Ignite Grant! \n\n\n\nCurious about other grants?

Larson will speak about the anti-apartheid movement as it appeared in the United States. \n\n\n\nActivists today look back on the anti-apartheid movement as an inspiration\, ranging from climate change activists to the BDS Movement.

SUMMARY:Rhetoric of the Rainbow: Living Between the Gay Movement and Civil Rights Movement
DESCRIPTION:Come visit the University of Akron’s Sociology Club for an Ohio Humanities’ Speakers’ Bureau event with LuSter Singleton! LuSter will discuss the intersections and departures of both the gay and Civil Rights Movement. \n\n\n\nIn the early 2000s\, LuSter disclosed their long-time struggle with finding a place of belonging within the so-called “gay movement” and the civil rights movement. With both having supported or encouraged notions of gender binaries\, misogyny\, transphobia\, and racial fetishization\, Singleton found it difficult to get fully ‘settled’ in either camp. Singleton shares this history to engage discussions on cancel culture\, Black Lives Matter\, and disappearing lesbian visibility and asks whether history is repeating itself. \n\n\n\nThis event is a part of Ohio Humanities’ United We Stand initiative. \n\n\n\nCurious about our Speakers Bureau?

SUMMARY:The Newark Earthworks: One of the World's Ancient Wonders
DESCRIPTION:Come visit Case Western Reserve University with the Cleveland Archaeological Society for an Ohio Humanities’ Speakers’ Bureau event with Brad Lepper about the Newark Earthworks! \n\n\n\nThe Newark Earthworks are the largest set of geometric enclosures and mounds in the world. The work of the Hopewell people who lived in Ohio circa A.D. 1-  400\, these geometric earthworks covered nearly five square miles\, using more than seven million cubic feet of earth. Why did the Hopewell build such monumental works? Were they prehistoric forts or ancient American cathedrals? \n\n\n\nBrad Lepper is the Senior Archaeologist for the Ohio History Connection’s World Heritage Program. In addition\, he has occasionally been a Visiting Professor of Sociology and Anthropology at Denison University. His primary areas of interest include North America’s Ice Age peoples\, Ohio’s magnificent mounds and earthworks\, and the history of Archaeology. Noteworthy research includes excavation of the Burning Tree mastodon and discovery of the Great Hopewell Road\, featured in a documentary that was first broadcast on PBS in 1998. \n\n\n\nCurious about our Speakers Bureau?

SUMMARY:Every Night is Ladies Night (Again!): A Sneak Peek and More!
DESCRIPTION:Every Night is Ladies Night (AGAIN): A Sneak Peek and More!   \n\n\n\nIn 1980 there were over two hundred lesbian bars in the United States. In 2023\, only 25 remain. Summit Station (also known as Jack’s)\, located at 2210 Summit Street in Columbus was Ohio’s longest running lesbian bar\, serving as the soul of the lesbian community in Central Ohio and beyond from 1970-2008.Summit Station functioned as a home away from home for thousands of women over the years\, serving as a space for first dates\, fundraisers\, drag king and dyke queen performances\, musical and comedy events\, dart and billiards leagues\, softball and football teams and so much more. Many of the patrons who frequented the bar reside in Columbus and surrounding communities. The stories of their experiences at the bar run the gamut from inspiring\, hilarious\, historical and political to deeply personal.  \n\n\n\nAfter two years of working to capture the stories of over 50 former patrons of the bar for an upcoming documentary film\, the team at Free Beer Tomorrow are excited to invite the community to gather at WOSU Public Media’s Ross Community Studio for a sneak peek of the film in process.  On Wednesday\, October 30th and in commemoration of LGBTQ+ History Month\, FBT will screen clips of the film\, followed by a conversation and Q &A with several patrons featured on screen. The event will also serve as a fundraiser to contribute to costs associated with professional editing\, color correction and sound design.  And\, the org is old school. Cash is KING\, so help them avoid costly fees and pay by cash at the door. Credit card payments via Paypal are welcome too. Thank you! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n The screening and conversation will be introduced and emceed by filmmakers\, Julia M. Applegate and LuSter P. Singleton. An open Question & Answer session will follow the screening and dialogue. \n\n\n\nThis event is brought to you by Sturdy Girl/Fast Friday Productions and is hosted by WOSU Public Media.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSetting up an interview with one of Columbus’ Topless 5

SUMMARY:'Capturing Life' Community Screening
DESCRIPTION:Come visit the Downtown Branch of the Cincinnati Public Library to see a community screening of Voyageur Media Group’s latest documentary\, “Capturing Life!” The screening will be on October 29th from 6-8pm. Following the film at 7pm there will be a panel discussion focusing on photography and preservation. \n\n\n\nOver the past three decades\, Voyageur’s production team has conducted research at dozens of regional archives in search of photographs to illustrate documentaries about our area’s rich cultural heritage. They have always cherished days spent exploring photographic collections. Over time\, they came to realize that these remarkable photographs are a fascinating story unto themselves. \n\n\n\nThe Big Picture: A History of Photography in Greater Cincinnati presents these fascinating stories in three\, one-hour episodes that cover the century of time from 1839 to 1939. \n\n\n\n“Capturing Life\,” the first episode\, examines how photography emerged as a vital medium during a period when Cincinnati evolved from a modest river town into the sixth-largest city in the United States. We present the work of the region’s first photographers\, entrepreneurs who turned their craft into a business. The first episode also explores the influence of photography during a period of enormous social change\, including westward expansion\, immigration\, slavery\, the abolitionist movement and the Civil War. \n\n\n\nThis event is free\, but requires registration. \n\n\n\nThis project was funded in part by an Ohio Humanities Ignite Grant. \n\n\n\nCurious about other grants?

In 1922\, six women were elected to the state legislature\, and Florence Allen was the first woman to ever be elected to a state supreme court in the nation.  \n\n\n\nOne hundred years later\, Ohio has never elected a woman to the US Senate or as governor. The 2022 election was the first time in 10 years that the number of women serving from Ohio in the US House increased. The number of women serving in the Ohio Statehouse is stalling.  The proportion of female candidates for local offices has been flat for a decade. \n\n\n\nOver the past century\, we can see a great deal of change in women’s representation in public office; Ohio can claim some remarkable “famous firsts.” Ohio is represented by an increasingly diverse group of women. But some things have remained stubbornly the same. The pool of political candidates is still overwhelmingly male. What are the challenges—and opportunities—that women candidates face? \n\n\n\nCurious about our Speakers Bureau?

SUMMARY:Serpent Mound — an Icon of Ancient Ohio
DESCRIPTION:Join the Firelands Archeological Research Center at the Ritter Public Library for an Ohio Humanities’ Speakers’ Bureau event with Brad Lepper! Lepper will talk about the fascinating archeology and history of the Serpent Mound. \n\n\n\nSerpent Mound in Adams County is one of the largest and most spectacular earthen sculptures in the world. The age of the serpent is a subject of current debate with some archaeologists arguing that it was built by the Adena culture at around 300 B.C.E. and others favoring the Fort Ancient culture at around 1100 C.E. Although much about Serpent Mound still is shrouded in mystery\, ancient cave paintings in Missouri may provide a key to unlocking some of its secrets. \n\n\n\nBrad Lepper is the Senior Archaeologist for the Ohio History Connection’s World Heritage Program. In addition\, he has occasionally been a Visiting Professor of Sociology and Anthropology at Denison University. His primary areas of interest include North America’s Ice Age peoples\, Ohio’s magnificent mounds and earthworks\, and the history of Archaeology. Noteworthy research includes excavation of the Burning Tree mastodon and discovery of the Great Hopewell Road\, featured in a documentary that was first broadcast on PBS in 1998. \n\n\n\nCurious about our Speakers Bureau?

SUMMARY:'Capturing Life' Academic Screening
DESCRIPTION:Come visit Northern Kentucky University’s Steely Library to see an academic screening of Voyageur Media Group’s latest documentary\, “Capturing Life!” The screening will be on October 17th from 5-7pm. Following the film at 7pm there will be a panel discussion focusing on photography and education. \n\n\n\nOver the past three decades\, Voyageur’s production team has conducted research at dozens of regional archives in search of photographs to illustrate documentaries about our area’s rich cultural heritage. They have always cherished days spent exploring photographic collections. Over time\, they came to realize that these remarkable photographs are a fascinating story unto themselves. \n\n\n\nThe Big Picture: A History of Photography in Greater Cincinnati presents these fascinating stories in three\, one-hour episodes that cover the century of time from 1839 to 1939. \n\n\n\n“Capturing Life\,” the first episode\, examines how photography emerged as a vital medium during a period when Cincinnati evolved from a modest river town into the sixth-largest city in the United States. We present the work of the region’s first photographers\, entrepreneurs who turned their craft into a business. The first episode also explores the influence of photography during a period of enormous social change\, including westward expansion\, immigration\, slavery\, the abolitionist movement and the Civil War. \n\n\n\nThis event is free\, but requires registration. Please check back for a link! \n\n\n\nThis project was funded in part by an Ohio Humanities Ignite Grant. \n\n\n\nCurious about other grants? Visit our calendar or browse our list of grantees!
