SUMMARY:SAN BERNARDINO–Exhibit: Afróntalo
DESCRIPTION: 21 Afrolatiné Californians and 4 Afro-Mexican communities in their own words  \nSAN BERNARDINO—One in four Latin Americans has African ancestry. 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.

SUMMARY:LOS ANGELES—Exhibit: "Comfort Women" Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:Caption: Soon-duk Kim\, Taken Away\, 1995\, courtesy of Comfort Women: Then and Now–Who They Were and Why We Should Remember Them. \nLOS ANGELES—In collaboration with Comfort Women Action for Redress and Education (CARE)\, a California-based organization led by survivors of World War II-era institutionalized sex slavery and human trafficking\, a new interpretive exhibit opening in February 2024 will bring to light the experiences of these abused women and girls and their struggle for justice. Using historical photographs\, documents\, maps\, and storytelling\, the exhibition will foster public understanding of how an event that happened more than 70 years ago is still relevant in the context of present-day human trafficking and Conflict-Related Sexual Violence (CRSV)\, and how these women transformed from victims to activists. \nTens of thousands of women and girls were forced into sexual slavery by the imperial Japanese army between 1932 and 1945. Forced to work in “comfort stations” for twelve hours a day\, the women lived under deplorable conditions\, moving about as they followed the army\, then abandoned when the war ended. CARE (Comfort Women Action for Redress & Education) continues to tell the story of these women\, pushing for acknowledgment of these human rights abuses from the Japanese government. \nComfort Women: Then and Now—Who They Were and Why We Should Remember Them\nExhibit Run: February 29–July 14\, 2024 \n\nWhere: Museum of Social Justice | 115 Paseo de la Plaza\, Los Angeles\, CA 90012 \n\n\nTickets: Free admission \nVisit the exhibit website for more information. \nThis project is supported by a Humanities for All Project Grant.

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—Nathaniel 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. \nExhibit Run: March 1–May 27\, 2024 \n\nWhere: Kelley House Museum | 45007 Albion Street\, Mendocino\, CA 95460 \nTickets: $5 suggested donation \n\nVisit the exhibit website for more information. \nThis project is supported by a Humanities for All Quick 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. Main Street\, Merced \nCOST: FREE! \nFor more info: https://www.artsmerced.org/events-list/no-no-boy \n \nThis project is supported with a Humanities for All Quick Grant.
