SUMMARY:The Mitchell Museum of the American Indian 45th Anniversary Benefit & Awards Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:The Mitchell Museum of the American Indian will honor U.S. Representative Sharice Davids for her significant contributions to Native American society\, culture\, and history at the 45th Anniversary Benefit and Awards Ceremony on November 19\, 2022\, at Writers Theater in Glencoe\, Illinois. \nOur premier event and annual awards ceremony is named for Dr. Carlos Montezuma\, a citizen of the Yavapai-Apache Tribe. He worked as a physician and social justice activist for Native American rights. Dr. Montezuma was the first Native American to earn an undergraduate and a medical degree from Northwestern University. In 1904 he became one of the founders of the Society for American Indians\, which focused on improving the physical\, social\, and economic well-being of Native Americans. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nU.S. Representative Sharice Davids will receive the 2022 Dr. Montezuma Award for her contributions to social activism that have advanced Native American people nationally. Rep. Davids is a Ho-Chunk Nation citizen and a member of the U.S. House\, representing Kansas’ 3rd Congressional District. In 2019\, she was sworn into the 116th Congress\, making her one of the first two Native American women to serve in Congress and the first openly LGBTQ+ representative to be elected in Kansas. She was raised by a single mother who served in the Army for 20 years. After graduating from Leavenworth High School\, she worked through Johnson County Community College and the University of Missouri-Kansas City before earning a law degree from Cornell Law School. \nAs a first-generation college student who worked the entire time she was in college\, Rep. Davids understands the importance of quality public schools and affordable higher education. That foundation allowed her to go on to a successful career focused on economic and community development\, which included time as a White House Fellow under President Barack Obama.

SUMMARY:ON-SITE BOOK & AUTHOR: “THE TATTOOED TORAH”
DESCRIPTION:Nearly four decades since its initial release\, Marvell Ginsburg’s The Tattooed Torah is widely regarded as a quintessential resource for early Holocaust education. A profound story of love\, hope\, and resilience\, The Tattooed Torah recounts the true story of a small Torah from Brno\, Czechoslovakia. This beloved illustrated book teaches the Holocaust not just as a period of destruction\, but also as an opportunity for redemption. \nGinsburg’s daughter\, Beth Kopin executive produced an animated short film adaptation of The Tattooed Torah. The adaptation is a three-generational endeavor that has also been passed down to Kopin’s son\, Brett Kopin\, who served as the film’s co-screenwriter with Marc Bennett. \nJoin us for a live reading\, Q&A\, and a short viewing of the film presented by Beth and Brett Kopin. Lois Roman\, a Trustee of the Memorial Scrolls Trust (MTS)\, will interview the Kopins and discuss the journey of the scroll that inspired The Tattooed Torah from pre-World War II through today. \nReservations required. \nMembers: Free; Non-Members: Museum Admission

SUMMARY:The Reel Film Club: Costa Rica
DESCRIPTION:Víctor has lived by himself\, tending to his cows\, in the mountains of Costa Rica for decades. He believes his neighbors have ordered their one indigenous employee to spy on him and that they have stolen his favorite cow. His 12-year-old grandson has been sent by his mother to live with Víctor just as the old man’s paranoia and hatred has worsened. News of a fugitive hiding in the mountains adds to the tension\, as well as Víctor’s growing blindness. Gustavo Fallas’s follow-up to “Puerto Padre” (an official selection of the 30th Chicago Latino Film Festival) is a low-key\, fog-shrouded\, unsettling portrait of a man quickly succumbing to his prejudices and demons.

SUMMARY:The Greek Diner and the Making of American Cuisine
DESCRIPTION:In this hour-long class\, we will explore the history of the Greek diner and its profound influence on American food culture. On the eve of World War I\, Greek immigrants began buying up the diners abandoned by German Americans facing anti-German persecution brought on by the war. In these kitchens\, the new Greek owners would adapt traditional German travelers’ fare with a touch of the Mediterranean and a pinch of entrepreneurial spirit. The result: A truly American way of cooking and eating.
