Foster\, the urban education activist and superhero who gave his life for the children of Oakland.  \nDr. Marcus A. Foster was the definition of a community superhero. The first Black Superintendent of any major school system in the United States: Oakland Unified\, he was a trailblazer whose life was cut short in 1973 due to his courage to bring innovation and accountability to the school system. He encouraged and challenged teachers and administrators to have “the audacity to believe” in the inherent talents of all young people\, and pioneered a “Master Plan Citizens Committee” tasking each neighborhood of the city to draw up their community-led visions as part of the district’s strategic plan. His dedication to youth and community made him a fierce advocate and beloved leader. As a teacher who began her first year during his tenure shared\, his presence and work made it so “We knew we were on our way to excellence.” His assassination cut that work short and left a community in mourning. Curated by local artist and storyteller Patanisha Williams as part of the Marcus Foster Education Institute’s 50th anniversary celebratory events\, “The Audacity to Believe” pays tribute to his life and impact\, and creates a long-needed space for the community to remember and heal. \nOn view: July 31 – November 30 2023 \nLocation: The historic African American Museum and Library of Oakland is located at 659 14th Street\, Oakland. The Museum and Library wheelchair accessible and is open and free to the public at the following hours: \nMonday – Thursday 10 am – 5:30 pm \nFriday 12 pm – 5:30 pm \nSaturday 10 am – 5:30 pm \nFor more information\, visit: https://www.marcusfoster.org/events/audacity-to-believe-exhibit \nThe Marcus Foster Education Institute (MFEI) was established by Dr. Marcus A.

DESCRIPTION:…in search of lost rent-control housing in Venice… \nVENICE—Visit the exhibit for “Where Has All The (affordable) Housing Gone?” a participatory\, community-based art project that explores the loss of affordable housing in Venice.

And yet\, there is a general deficit of knowledge regarding the presence and prevalence of blackness throughout the Americas. This is more than a simple matter of obscurity. It is a problem of erasure\, invisibility and dislocation. Afróntalo 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. \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 \nAdditional events and public programs part of the Afrolatine California project: \n \nLearn more at on the project’s website. \nThis project is supported by a Humanities for All Project Grant.  URL:https://calhum.org/event/san-bernardino-exhibit-afrontalo/ LOCATION:The CSUSB Anthropology Museum\, 5500 University Parkway\, San Bernardino\, CA\, 92407\, United States CATEGORIES:Humanities for All Project Grants ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://calhum.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/AFRONTALO-SAVE-THE-DATE_Page_1.jpg GEO:34.1781479;-117.3224143 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=The CSUSB Anthropology Museum 5500 University Parkway San Bernardino CA 92407 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=5500 University Parkway:geo:-117.3224143,34.1781479 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20230923T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20231001T173000 DTSTAMP:20260415T093009 CREATED:20230831T184044Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230831T184044Z UID:10000084-1695459600-1696181400@calhum.org SUMMARY:LOS ANGELES–Exhibit: Climates of Inequality DESCRIPTION:Los Angeles-Visit Climates of Inequality\, a week-long pop-up exhibition featuring stories of environmental justice from the US\, Mexico\, and Colombia.

A romantic comedy with original music\, PEDRO PLAY explores the meaning of home in a community in the midst of radical change. The show’s cast features members of the San Pedro community on stage in collaboration with Cornerstone Theater Company’s ensemble members and guest artists. The cast will be accompanied by a six-piece band playing original music by Co-Composers David Markowitz and Nehal Shahin. PEDRO PLAY is inspired by dozens of conversations and stories shared with Cornerstone artists over the script’s development\, as a part of Cornerstone Theater Company’s ongoing Change Series. In these volatile times\, Cornerstone is undertaking an exploration of how societal change across the country and the globe is impacting our local communities and\, by extension\, the very nature of the work we do as a company. \n\n\n\n\nThursday\, October 19 at 8 pm \nFriday\, October 20 at 8 pm \nSaturday\, October 21 at 2 pm \nSaturday\, October 21 at 8 pm \nTickets are Pay-What-You-Can with a suggested donation $20\, but any amount is appreciated.
