SUMMARY:NHM Virtual Book Club: Ariadne
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, May 26th at 7pm we will be discussing Ariadne by Jennifer Saint Virtually via Zoom\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nJoin the National Hellenic Museum’s Virtual Book Club! \nFacilitated by NHM’s Resident Scholar Dr. Katherine Kelaidis & Manager of Programs & Events Cairo Dye\, each month the NHM Virtual Book Club chooses a book that is either inspired by the Hellenic legacy or by a Greek American author (and sometimes both!). Then we gather to discuss the book on Zoom. \nBook Club is free to join and meets on the third Thursday of each month at 7pm CST \nIn May\, we will be discussing Ariadne by Jennifer Saint. \nSupport NHM with your purchase of Ariadne! When you buy your copy through this link\, a portion of the proceeds will go to NHM: https://amzn.to/3DSmGJB \nClick here to see all of our upcoming book selections \nMore about Ariadne: \nAriadne\, Princess of Crete\, grows up greeting the dawn from her beautiful dancing floor and listening to her nursemaid’s stories of gods and heroes. But beneath her golden palace echo the ever-present hoofbeats of her brother\, the Minotaur\, a monster who demands blood sacrifice. \nWhen Theseus\, the Prince of Athens\, arrives to vanquish the beast\, Ariadne sees in his green eyes not a threat but an escape. Defying the gods\, betraying her family and country\, and risking everything for love\, Ariadne helps Theseus kill the Minotaur. But will Ariadne’s decision ensure her happy ending? And what of Phaedra\, the beloved younger sister she leaves behind? \nHypnotic\, propulsive\, and utterly transporting\, Jennifer Saint’s Ariadne forges a new epic\, one that puts the forgotten women of Greek mythology back at the heart of the story\, as they strive for a better world.

SUMMARY:“The All-American Crew” Book Talk with Author Russell N. Low
DESCRIPTION:The Chinese American Museum of Chicago (CAMOC) is excited to announce this FREE book talk with author Russell N. Low\, as he returns to CAMOC to discuss his new book published this year\, The All-American Crew. Register here.\n\nAbout the book\nOn January 23\, 1943\, a B-24 Liberator and its crew of ten men disappeared without a trace in New Guinea\, leaving ten families wounded permanently and without closure. Now\, after almost 80 years of silence\, using long-forgotten letters and dusty photographs from another era\, the lives and loves of these ten men are brought to life on the pages of The All-American Crew.\n\nThey did not intend to be heroes and would not welcome the description. They were the sons of farmers\, oil company engineers\, cotton brokers\, garment industry workers\, and Chinese laundrymen. Many were descendants of the oldest colonial families in America\, who set foot on the soil of Colonial Virginia in the 1600s. Others came from families that migrated to America in the 1800s from Ireland\, Scotland\, Germany\, Austria\, and China during the tremendous immigration wave that built America. In truth\, this group of young men could only have been formed in America. They were the best that America had to offer. Each was willing to sacrifice everything for the country he loved\, driven by a patriotic fervor that was only matched by his love of flying.\n\nThe All-American Crew is based upon a true story. Stanley’s transformation from a Chinese American boy\, not yet old enough to vote or drink beer\, into a B-24 Liberator nose gunner is set against the lives of the other nine American men\, who are his crew members. Along the way\, Stanley experiences loneliness\, racism\, his first beer\, first romance\, and the horrors of war\, themes that are as relevant today as they were 80 years ago.

SUMMARY:“Chinese Brothers\, American Sons” Book Talk with Author Ed Shew
DESCRIPTION:The Chinese American Museum of Chicago (CAMOC) is pleased to host this FREE book talk with Ed Shew\, author of the historical novel Chinese Brothers\, American Sons. Register here.\n\nTwo Chinese brothers arrive in America in 1854 on a death ship to escape poverty and oppression in China. Li Chang and Li Yu\, ten years younger\, search for Gold Mountain in the historical novel\, Chinese Brothers\, American Sons. Fighting the inhumanity and discrimination of the West\, they work perilously to drive in the Golden Spike in 1869 and become inspirational builders of the first Transcontinental Railroad and this country.\n\nFrom the author\n“It’s the story of two Cantonese brothers who along with tens of thousands of men from southern China conquer the back-breaking construction of the Transcontinental Railroad in the 1860s\, the tunnels through the granite of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. No first-hand account describing the life of a Chinese railroad worker of the Transcontinental Railroad has ever been found. Historians have searched this nation and the winding road back to China\, to the roots of these forgotten\, invisible men. Many were literate\, yet not a scrap of their writing remains. As a Chinese American\, my goal is to tell this little-known story of these brave adventurers.”   – Ed Shew

SUMMARY:Paha Stitch: Reclaiming the name and restoring dignity to Lakota Beading
DESCRIPTION:Rhonda Holy Bear will discuss her campaign to reclaim the Lakota language and eliminate the derogatory term “lazy stitch”.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nWords we use to define Indigenous histories and traditions have significant meaning and power. Many common yet offensive terms still used today have racist origins to describe Indigenous artistic techniques and practices contributing to cultural erasure. Award-winning Lakota Artist Rhonda Holy Bear is committed to restoring the appropriate terminology and language to describe beading techniques. In this session\, Rhonda will discuss her campaign to reclaim the Lakota language and eliminate the derogatory term “lazy stitch” used to describe long-venerated traditional beading techniques. Rhonda will share how the offensive word was used to imply Lakota grandmothers were “lazy” women whose artwork was unworthy of respect. She will introduce the appropriate term\, “Paha Stitch\,” meaning Hill Stitch or apahaka kagege used to reflect the Lakota values for industriousness and a strong work ethic. Rhonda invites others to change the name to Paha Stitch to honor and preserve the true legacy of Lakota/Plains women. \n  \nAbout the Artist \nRhonda Holy Bear was born in South Dakota in 1959. Rhonda is a Lakota transitional art figure artist. She has been creating figures for over 45 years. She spent her formative years on the Cheyenne River Sioux Indian Reservation in South Dakota and\, later\, in Chicago. Rhonda would eventually move to the southwest\, settling in New Mexico and\, most recently\, Las Vegas\, Nevada. As a youth\, Rhonda researched the work of her ancestors in the vaults of the Chicago Field Museum. Her meticulous research and artistic gifts would establish Rhonda as a notable leader in her field. Her innovative transitional art figures\, a combination of sculpture and traditional techniques\, have elevated the prominence of Plains figures in contemporary Native American art. What were once primarily considered playthings are now highly collectible plains Indian art figures. Her work has been prominently displayed in museums and private collections in United States and around the world. Most recently\, her work has been featured in The Metropolitan Art Museum of New York\, The Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Indian and at the Art Institute of Chicago and The Field Museum of Chicago. Rhonda was recently honored in a naming ceremony in her native South Dakota. Her Lakota name is “Wakah Wayuphika Win” (Making With Exceptional Skills Woman).

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:NHM Virtual Book Club: The Beekeeper of Aleppo
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, April 21st at 7pm we will be discussing The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri Virtually via Zoom\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nJoin the National Hellenic Museum’s Virtual Book Club! \nFacilitated by NHM’s Resident Scholar Dr. Katherine Kelaidis & Manager of Programs & Events Cairo Dye\, each month the NHM Virtual Book Club chooses a book that is either inspired by the Hellenic legacy or by a Greek American author (and sometimes both!). Then we gather to discuss the book on Zoom. \nBook Club is free to join and meets on the third Thursday of each month at 7pm CST \nIn April we will be discussing The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri. \nSupport NHM with your purchase of The Beekeeper of Aleppo! When you buy your copy through this link \, a portion of the proceeds will go to NHM: https://amzn.to/3IKZlwS \nClick here to see all of our upcoming book selections \nMore about The Beekeeper of Aleppo: \nNuri is a beekeeper; his wife\, Afra\, an artist. They live a simple life\, rich in family and friends\, in the beautiful Syrian city of Aleppo–until the unthinkable happens. When all they care for is destroyed by war\, they are forced to escape. But what Afra has seen is so terrible she has gone blind\, and so they must embark on a perilous journey through Turkey and Greece towards an uncertain future in Britain. On the way\, Nuri is sustained by the knowledge that waiting for them is Mustafa\, his cousin and business partner\, who has started an apiary and is teaching fellow refugees in Yorkshire to keep bees. \nAs Nuri and Afra travel through a broken world\, they must confront not only the pain of their own unspeakable loss\, but dangers that would overwhelm the bravest of souls. Above all\, they must journey to find each other again. \nMoving\, powerful\, compassionate\, and beautifully written\, The Beekeeper of Aleppo is a testament to the triumph of the human spirit. It is the kind of book that reminds us of the power of storytelling.
