DESCRIPTION:Caption: Black seamen onboard ship [073]. Miriam Matthews Photograph Collection\, African American Museum and Library at Oakland. \nSACRAMENTO—Visit the Central Library in Sacramento from January 23 to March 16 for Take Me to the Water\, a multimedia exhibit curated by Dr. Caroline Collins that captures the historic panorama of the Black experience with the Pacific Ocean.  \nThe exhibit seeks to recenter the relationship between African Americans\, water\, and ships\, moving beyond the entrenched narrative of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade and towards the understanding that Black people have not only existed in the Pacific region for centuries\, but played an integral role in the development of Pacific economy and society. \nThe exhibit will be accompanied by the following series of free public programs: \nFebruary 8\, 6:30 pm on Zoom: Join us as Dr. Caroline Collins has a Q&A about her exhibit Take Me to the Water: Black Histories of the Pacific with SPL archivist and historian James Scott.

Colley – his experience in the South Pacific during World War II and how it shaped the course of his life.  Lango will use rarely seen archival materials\, both in paper and audio-visual\, in an effort to bring clarity to this defining period in the life and career of Mr. Colley.   \nMarch 16: 1:00 pm at Central Library: Born to a Danish-Jewish father and Afro Caribbean mother in the Virgin Islands at the beginning of the nineteenth-century\, William Alexander Leidesdorff sailed both the Atlantic and Pacific\, forged fresh trade routes\, built influential relationships\, and eventually settled in California where he became one of the nation’s first African American millionaires. American River College professor of humanities Michael Harlan shares his research on this figure who – transitioning from mariner to landholder – became one of the most influential figures in the early development of California. \nTickets: Facilitated by the Sacramento Room\, the exhibit and all accompanying programs are free and no registration is required.

SUMMARY:UCR ARTS at Riverside—Partner Screening of DOROTHEA LANGE: GRAB A HUNK OF LIGHTNING

SUMMARY:UCR ARTS at Riverside—Partner Screening of EXPOSING MUYBRIDGE
DESCRIPTION:Caption: Actor Gary Oldman in a still from EXPOSING MUYBRIDGE. \nUCR ARTS—On March 23\, join UCR ARTS in Riverside for an afternoon screening of EXPOSING MUYBRIDGE (2021). This free event includes a post-film Q&A with filmmaker Marc Shaffer. \nSynopsis: Few figures have played so seminal a role in our moving picture storytelling culture as the revolutionary 19th-century photographer Eadweard Muybridge. At the behest of his patron\, the railroad baron Leland Stanford\, Muybridge produced unprecedented images of running horses\, instantly transforming the camera into a machine of unmatched powers of perception and persuasion and setting the course for the development of cinema. \nBefore his motion photography breakthrough\, Muybridge produced one of the most celebrated early landscape catalogues of the American West. He made the first photographs of winemaking in Northern California\, produced the first photographs of native Tlingit people and of Southeast Alaska\, was the fourth to photograph Yosemite\, the first to be hired by the US government to photograph an Indian War (The Modoc War in Northern California)\, and his photographs of Central America are widely considered the most important early images of the region. \nMischievous\, resilient\, deceitful\, proud — Muybridge was a complicated man\, and his personal story is as melodramatic as his professional one is distinguished\, imbued with ambition and success\, loss and betrayal\, even the cold-blooded killing of a romantic rival. \n“The machine cannot lie\,” Leland Stanford declared of Muybridge’s horse-in-motion images. But what about the photographer? \nExposing Muybridge reveals long-buried secrets hiding in Muybridge’s photographs that force us to ask\, can we truly believe what we see in a photograph? \nFar from a relic of the past\, then\, Muybridge marks a beginning of “now\,” his work catalyzing much of our modern culture\, inspiring cutting-edge artists\, scientists\, and innovators\, people who continue to reshape how we interpret and experience our world. \nSaturday\, March 23\, 2024 |  3 pm \n3824 + 3834 Main Street\nRiverside\, CA 92501 \nFree admission! Reserve your free ticket here. \n*A film admission ticket gives you access to the film screening and complimentary admission to all UCR ARTS exhibitions during your visit.

SUMMARY:MENDOCINO—Nathaniel Smith and the History of African Americans in California
DESCRIPTION:Caption: Nathaniel Smith\, circa 1880-1900. Photograph courtesy of Open UCLA Collections \nMENDOCINO—Join the Kelley House Museum and two special guest speakers for an in-depth discussion of the life of Nathaniel Smith\, the first African American to settle on the Mendocino Coast in the 1850s. Susan Anderson\, History Curator at the California African American Museum will offer insight into the history of California’s treatment of people of color\, and Guest Curator Alexander Wood shares his research on Smith’s life.  \nWhen: Saturday\, March 23\, 4-5:30 PM \n\nWhere: Kelley House Museum | 45007 Albion Street\, Mendocino\, CA 95460 \nTickets: $7-$10\, students free. No one turned away due to lack of funds. Advance tickets recommended. \nExhibit Run: March 1–May 27\, 2024 \nNathaniel Smith arrived in Mendocino County in the 1850s and is believed to be the first African American to settle on the coast. His life story is revealed through photos\, clippings\, and artifacts in the Kelley House Museum’s newest exhibit. Smith was at one time “known to every man\, woman and child on the coast.” He was known for his wit\, good nature\, and essential work as a hunter\, fisherman\, farmer\, and ferry operator. When Smith arrived in Mendocino\, California passed laws and instituted policies discriminating against African Americans and Native Americans. As his popularity in the region grew\, he also endured the racism of some of his neighbors\, including the frequent use of a derogatory nickname. Despite the challenges\, Smith succeeded in many professions\, owned a home and land\, and raised a family. This exhibition presents details of Nathaniel Smith’s life set against the history of California’s treatment of people of color. Follow the path of Smith’s life as he moved from his hometown of Baltimore\, traveled the world on a ship\, and eventually settled and made his life in Mendocino County. We are grateful to guest curator Alexander Wood for his thorough research and to Arlene Zornes\, Nathaniel Smith’s descendant\, for all the information and assistance. \n\nVisit the exhibit website for more information. \nThis project is supported by a Humanities for All Quick Grant.

SUMMARY:LOS ANGELES AND VIRTUAL–Can a Football Stadium Be a Black History Museum?
DESCRIPTION:Presented in partnership with The Kinsey African American Art & History Collection at SoFi Stadium Hollywood Park \nLOS ANGELES AND VIRTUAL—In February 2022\, SoFi Stadium marked two milestones. The first was hosting the Los Angeles Rams’ home field victory in Super Bowl LVI. The second was opening an exhibition of the Kinsey African American Art & History Collection.

What have the Kinseys chosen to display\, and why at SoFi? And how are other people and organizations\, in fields from fine art to poetry\, using Black narratives to inform and enrich our understanding of history and contemporary life in unexpected ways? \nA panel of artists and athletes visit Zócalo and Kinsey Collection at SoFi Stadium to discuss what one of the world’s largest private collections of Black art and historical objects is doing at one of the world’s grandest football stadiums\, why it matters\, and where similar efforts are scoring big. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTER FOR THIS EVENT \n\n\n\n6 PM: In-person audience members are invited for a last\, best chance to join a guided tour of the Kinsey exhibition\, which leaves SoFi at the end of March \n7 PM: Conversation\, in-person and online \n8 PM: In-person audience members are invited to join us for a reception with a DJ and complimentary food and beverages \n\nWhen: Thursday\, March 28\, 2024 | 6-9 pm PT \nWhere: SoFi Stadium Hollywood Park\, 1001 S.

SUMMARY:LOS ANGELES–Lanterns in the Dark: Afrolatine LA in Verse
DESCRIPTION:LOS ANGELES—Join Lanterns in the Dark: Afrolatine LA In Verse\, a poetry and open mic event featuring poets Lucas Rivera\, Reggie Myles\, Sean Hill\, Cameron Mouton\, and Jenise Miller and co-sponsored by LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes. This program is free and part of the public programming for the Afróntalo exhibit\, led by the CSU San Bernardino Anthropology Museum.  \nWhere: LA Plaza de Cultura y Artes | 501 N Main Street | Los Angeles\, CA 90012 \nWhen: 2-4:30 PM \nAdmission is free! \n—————————— \nAbout Afróntalo \nAfróntalo introduces you to four communities in Mexico and twenty-one Californians\, all in their own words\, to explore the depth and breadth of Afrolatiné histories\, cultures and identities. “Afróntalo” in Spanish means “Face It.” This reflects the intention of our exhibition to recognize the erasure of Afro-descendants and the prevalence of anti-blackness in the Americas. Additional meaning can be found in breaking the title into two separate phrases\, “Afro” and “Ntalo.” The first phrase\, “Afro\,” reflects the Afro-descendant focus of the exhibition. The second phrase “Ntalo\,” has at least three meanings in African languages. In Xitsonga\, spoken in parts of Zimbabwe and Eswatini\, ntalo means “abundance.” In Lingala\, a language spoken in the Democratic Republic of Congo\, ntalo means “value.” Finally in Ganda\, the primary language spoken in Uganda\, ntalo means “war.” Collectively\, these three words reflect the impetus of Afróntalo to make clear the widespread and deep roots of Afro-descendants in the Americas\, the incredible importance of Afro-descendant contributions and populations historically and today\, and the need for action to bring attention to these matters and the contemporary needs of Afro-descendant communities. \nWhere: California State University\, San Bernardino | Anthropology Museum (SB-306) 5500 University Parkway\, San Bernardino\, CA 92407 \nExhibit Runs September 21\, 2023 – June 19\, 2024\nFree and open to the public \nLearn more at on the project’s website. \nThis project is supported by a Humanities for All Project Grant.

SUMMARY:MERCED—No-No Boy in Concert
DESCRIPTION:MERCED—Coming on the heels of his 2023 album release Empire Electric\, No-No Boy\, the media project of Ethnomusicologist and Smithsonian Folkways recording artist Julian Saporiti and co-producer Emilia Halvorsen Saporiti\, is coming to Merced for an evening performance. Called a “Master Storyteller” by All Music\, Saporiti’s songwriting examines narratives of imperialism\, identity\, and spirituality. It tells stories rooted in years of research and relationship-building\, made vibrant and profound through a rich congregation of instrumental\, environmental\, and electronically manipulated sounds from Asia and America. His performances have been called “remarkably powerful and moving\,” by Folk Alley and “with gentle\, catchy and accessible folk songs that feel instantly familiar\,” by NPR – a contrast that gets to the heart of Saporiti’s songwriting.\nAlong with the concerrt there will be an 11 A.M. workshop at the MAC on Saporiti’s approach to turning history into modern media. \nWHEN: Saturday\, April 27 at 7:00 pm \nWHERE: The MAC Black Box Theater | 645 W.

SUMMARY:WATSONVILLE—Cinco De Lowrider Film Program
DESCRIPTION:Watsonville—The Watsonville Film Festival (WFF) is reclaiming the Cinco de Mayo holiday with five days of films and festivities honoring Mexican and Chicano heritage and pride. The celebration is part of a prestigious California Humanities grant awarded to WFF to create the More than Cars: Celebrating Lowrider Culture and a series of cultural events in partnership with Pajaro Valley Arts and local car clubs. \nHumanities advisor\, Dr. Alberto Lopez Pulido\, Chair of the University of San Diego Ethnic Studies Dept.\,  and a renowned Lowrider author and filmmaker\, will bring the iconic 38-foot mural-covered “Barrio Bus\,” aka classroom on wheels\, from San Diego to visit PVUSD schools. From May 1-3\, students will have the opportunity to tour the Barrio Bus and engage with Professor Pulido\, who is also Vice-Chair of Chicano Park Museum and Cultural Center\, to learn about the 8 Principles of Lowriding and the significance of 5 de Mayo. \n“Since the 1940s\, lowriding has been a source of pride and a symbol of Chicano ingenuity\,” says Dr. Pulido\, “Yet for decades\, many cities passed laws banning Lowriders from gathering and cruising. They were targeted with negative stereotypes when in fact they represent a unique form of “art on wheels.”  In 2024\, California finally repealed the bans after a grassroots campaign organized by Lowrider clubs across the state. \nOn Saturday\, May 4 at 6 pm\, the Watsonville Film Festival will present Dr. Pulido’s award-winning documentary\, EVERYTHING COMES FROM THE STREETS\, about the history of Lowriding. UCSC graduate Gloria Morán will present her film\, THE UNIQUE LADIES\, about women Lowriders in a culture traditionally dominated by men. There will be a Q&A after the films with the directors and Dr. Pulido’s co-producers Rigoberto Reyes and Kelly Whalen at Cinelux Green Valley Cinema\, 1125 S. Green Valley Rd. Starting at 9 pm\, DJ XXIII will be spinning Lowrider tunes at a free after-party at Fruition Brewing\, 918 E. Lake Ave in Watsonville. \nOn Sunday\, May 5\, there will be free ‘Cinco de Lowrider’ festivities at Pajaro Valley Arts\, where the More Than Cars: Celebrating Lowrider Culture exhibit will be open to the public. The Watsonville Riders will host their club’s showcase and talk from 1-2 pm. There will be music\, food vendors\, and lots of beautiful Lowrider cars outside of the Porter Building at 280 Main Street between 11 am–4 pm. \nAbout WFF:\nThe Watsonville Film Festival\, now in its 12th year\, provides a platform for talented Latine and Indigenous artists and filmmakers who are often overlooked by mainstream culture. The California Humanities grant has provided support for WFF to explore the creative legacy of Lowriding through films\, an oral history project in collaboration with CSUMB Professor Kristen La Follette\, school visits with the Barrio Bus\, and the exhibit that features artwork by more than 50 local and prominent artists and five car clubs. \nFor more information\, visit: watsonvillefilmfest.org and pvarts.org.

SUMMARY:SAN BERNARDINO–Celebrate Pio Pico's Birthday with Afróntalo
DESCRIPTION:SAN BERNARDINO—Join the CSUSB Anthropology Museum for conchas and cake to celebrate the May 5 birthday of Alta California’s last governor\, Pio Pico! Part of the ongoing exhibit Afróntalo. \nWhen: Monday\, May 6 | 11 am-1 pm\nWhere: CSUSB Anthropology Museum\, San Bernardino\, SB-306  \nTickets: This event is FREE to the public \n—————————————————————————– \nWhy is the exhibit called Afróntalo?  \n“Afróntalo” in Spanish means “Face It.” This reflects the intention of our exhibition to recognize the erasure of Afro-descendants and the prevalence of anti-blackness in the Americas. Additional meaning can be found in breaking the title into two separate phrases\, “Afro” and “Ntalo.” The first phrase\, “Afro\,” reflects the Afro-descendant focus of the exhibition. The second phrase “Ntalo\,” has at least three meanings in African languages. In Xitsonga\, spoken in parts of Zimbabwe and Eswatini\, ntalo means “abundance.” In Lingala\, a language spoken in the Democratic Republic of Congo\, ntalo means “value.” Finally in Ganda\, the primary language spoken in Uganda\, ntalo means “war.” Collectively\, these three words reflect the impetus of Afróntalo to make clear the widespread and deep roots of Afro-descendants in the Americas\, the incredible importance of Afro-descendant contributions and populations historically and today\, and the need for action to bring attention to these matters and the contemporary needs of Afro-descendant communities. \nWhere: California State University\, San Bernardino | Anthropology Museum (SB-306)5500 University Parkway\, San Bernardino\, CA 92407 \nExhibit Runs September 21\, 2023 – June 19\, 2024\nFree and open to the public \nLearn more at on the project’s website. \nThis project is supported by a Humanities for All Project Grant.
