SUMMARY:Virtual Film Screening and Discussion: Inhabitants
DESCRIPTION:Join is virtually for our Earth Week Activities!\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nIn celebration of Earth Day and Earth Week\, join us for a virtual screening of the film Inhabitants. You can view the film at your leisure anytime between April 22-29th\, 2022. Be sure to join us on Sunday\, April 24th at 7:00pm for a panel discussion with filmmakers Costa Boutsikaris and Dr. Michael Kotutwa Johnson. *All links will be emailed before April 22nd. \n  \nInhabitants: Indigenous Perspectives on Restoring Our World \nFor millennia Native Americans successfully stewarded and shaped their landscapes\, but centuries of colonization have disrupted their ability to maintain their traditional land management practices. From deserts\, coastlines\, forests\, mountains\, and prairies\, Native communities across the US are restoring their ancient relationships with the land. The five stories include sustaining traditions of Hopi dryland farming in Arizona; restoring buffalo to the Blackfeet reservation in Montana; maintaining sustainable forestry on the Menominee reservation in Wisconsin; reviving native food forests in Hawaii; and returning prescribed fire to the landscape by the Karuk Tribe of California. As the climate crisis escalates these time-tested practices of North America’s original inhabitants are becoming increasingly essential in a rapidly changing world. \nWebsite: www.INHABITANTSFILM.com \nInstagram: @InhabitantsFilm \nFaceBook: www.FaceBook.com/InhabitantsFilm \n  \nFilmmakers: \nCosta Boutsikaris – Co-Director/Cinematographer/Editor \nCosta is a New York-based director and cinematographer. In 2015 he released his first feature documentary entitled INHABIT: A Permaculture Perspective. In 2016 it took home the Audience Choice Award at The Environmental Film Festival At Yale and the Princeton Environmental Film Festival and won Best In Theme at the Wild & Scenic Film Festival. \nDirectors Statement \n  \nWe\, Anna Palmer and Costa Boutsikaris\, have had the immense privilege of getting the opportunity to help Native project leaders share their stories and visions of the future. In 2017 Anna Palmer was working for the USDA helping develop climate adaptation plans for Tribes in the Southwest. While attending academic conferences on Climate Change Adaptation she continued to hear a constant request for higher quality media of Native land management projects. Through conversations with Tribal project leaders and our supporting foundations we developed a plan for creating a film to help document these projects. This film was made collaboratively with our Tribal Advisory Board\, which includes representatives from each of the Tribes highlighted in the film and the Kalliopeia Foundation. These partnerships allowed the film subjects to ensure that the film is accurate\, culturally appropriate and meets the needs of their communities. \n  \nFor more information about this program\, contact info@mitchellmuseum.org

SUMMARY:What to Send Up When It Goes Down
DESCRIPTION:Congo Square Theatre presents WHAT TO SEND UP WHEN IT GOES DOWN!\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nSSCAC is thrilled to share a limited amount of complimentary tickets for What to Send Up When It Goes Down\, showing April 21 – May 1 at Stony Island Arts Bank. \nWhat to Send Up When It Goes Down responds to the gratuitous loss of Black lives and interrupts discourses that enable the ubiquity of racialized violence in our society and is a participatory\, shapeshifting experience intent on creating space for collective catharsis\, cleansing and healing. \nThis intimate\, interactive 90-minute work will be co-directed by Congo Square Artistic Director Ericka Ratcliff and Ensemble member Daniel Bryant and feature Ensemble members Ronald L. Conner and Anthony Irons along with Jos N Banks\, McKenzie Chinn\, Victor Missoni\, Alexandria Moorman\, and Penelope Walker.
