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  In 2024\, California finally repealed the bans after a grassroots campaign organized by Lowrider clubs across the state.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.

SUMMARY:RIVERSIDE—HOLLYWOOD CHINESE Screening

Wong\, Nancy Kwan\, Tsai Chin\, Lisa Lu\, James Hong\, and Amy Tan are among the storytellers who have wrestled with being the “other” in Hollywood. \nFree admission and Q&A with filmmaker Arthur Dong. \nWhere: UCR Arts\, 3824 & 3834 Main Street\, Riverside\, CA 92501\nWhen: 7 pm\, May 17\, 2024 \nFor details\, see: ucrarts.ucr.edu/films/hollywood-chinese/

SUMMARY:SAN DIEGO—Our Voice\, Our Power
DESCRIPTION:SAN DIEGO—Join Karen Organization for an evening dedicated to honoring the rich experiences and history of San Diego’s local refugee community. This special event will feature an exhibition showcasing their stories through art installations\, oral storytelling\, live performances\, and immersive visual displays. \nWhen: Friday\, June 21\, 2024\, 1–4 PM\nWhere: Mingei International Museum\, Balboa Park\, Plaza de Panama\, 1439 El Prado\, San Diego\, CA 92101 \nQuestions? Email Nao Kabashima\, Executive Director\, Karen Organization of San Diego\, nao@karensandiego.org \nMore about the event: This event serves a dual purpose: it is both an informational session for those with little to no knowledge of the ethnic groups in Burma and a nostalgic memory capsule for the Karen and other refugee communities from Burma. The cultural exhibition will narrate the story of the people from Burma through four distinct mediums. First\, a display of cultural artifacts will include clothes from various ethnic groups\, traditional weaving tools\, a water buffalo horn\, a drum\, and a harp – all items of symbolic importance to these communities. Additionally\, an art exhibit will feature pieces created by Karen youth. Each art piece visually represents the experiences recounted by elders and parents before and after the war. An incomplete timeline will visually depict the history of the Karen people\, with noticeable gaps due to the loss of historical records and knowledge because of the long-lasting civil war. This timeline will be supplemented with stories collected from community members through oral history projects. This visual will showcase our efforts to reclaim our voice and include our experiences in the historical narrative. The final component will be a play compiled from the stories of the local community. It highlights common themes such as resilience\, perseverance\, family and community bonds\, and the pursuit of hope and new beginnings. Each part of the exhibit aims to revive and preserve the pieces of our history that we hold dear and wish to pass on to future generations.
