SUMMARY:Root Shock Reading Group
DESCRIPTION:UofOrange is hosting this 4 week free online reading group of Mindy Fullilove’s “Root Shock”. Join us each week on Mondays from January 16th to February 6th at 6:30PM EST. \nRegister online HERE \nRoot Shock examines 3 different U.S. cities to unmask the crippling results of decades-old disinvestment in communities of color and the urban renewal practices that ultimately destroyed these neighborhoods for the advantage of developers and the elite. \nLike a sequel to the prescient warnings of urbanist Jane Jacobs\, Dr. Mindy Thompson Fullilove reveals the disturbing effects of decades of insensitive urban renewal projects on communities of color. For those whose homes and neighborhoods were bulldozed\, the urban modernization projects that swept America starting in 1949 were nothing short of an assault. Vibrant city blocks – places rich in culture – were torn apart by freeways and other invasive development\, devastating the lives of poor residents. \nFullilove passionately describes the profound traumatic stress- the “root shock”that results when a neighborhood is demolished. She estimates that federal and state urban renewal programs\, spearheaded by business and real estate interests\, destroyed 1\,600 African American districts in cities across the United States. But urban renewal didn’t just disrupt black communities: it ruined their economic health and social cohesion\, stripping displaced residents of their sense of place as well. It also left big gashes in the centers of cities that are only now slowly being repaired. \nFocusing on the Hill District of Pittsburgh\, the Central Ward in Newark\, and the small Virginia city of Roanoke\, Dr. Fullilove argues powerfully against policies of displacement. Understanding the damage caused by root shock is crucial to coping with its human toll and helping cities become whole. \nBuy a copy here: https://nyupress.org/9781613320198/root-shock/

Maybe I can touch people’s hearts better than I can their minds\, with the common struggle of the common people.” — Paul Robeson “A través de mi canto\, actuación y habla\, quiero hacer sonar la libertad. Tal vez pueda tocar los corazones de las personas mejor que sus mentes\, con la lucha común de la gente común.” — Paul Robeson “Atravè chante\, pèfòmans\, ak diskou mwen\, mwen vle libète reye. Petèt mwen ka touche kè moun pi byen ke lespri yo\, avèk yon eprèv ke n pataje ak moun komen”. — Paul Robeson This year’s 7th annual Remembering Rosa is titled “Remembering Rosa\, Remembering Robeson.” Our theme this year focuses on Paul Robeson. Through story and song we will remember NJ’s native son – a renaissance man whose life work explored the relationship between music\, solidarity\, and freedom – and who spent time with civil rights organizers in Orange in the late 1950s. La séptima edición anual de Remembering Rosa de este año se titula “Remembering Rosa\, Remembering Robeson”. Nuestro tema de este año se centra en Paul Robeson. A través de la historia y la canción\, recordaremos al hijo nativo de NJ\, un hombre del renacimiento cuyo trabajo de vida exploró la relación entre la música\, la solidaridad y la libertad\, y que pasó un tiempo con los organizadores de los derechos civiles en Orange a finales de la década de 1950. Ane sa se 7èm ane N ap Komemore Rosa ki rele komemorasyon Rosa\, komemorasyon Robeson. Tèm nou pou ane sa chita sou Paul Robeson. Atravè istwa ak mizik\, n ap sonje pitit natif NJ- yon gason renesans ke travay li te eksplore relasyon ki genyen ant mizik\, solidarite\, ak libète- e li te pase tan ak òganizatè dwa sivik yo nan Oranj nan fen lane 1950 yo. We strongly recommend wearing a face mask and taking a Covid-19 rapid test before attending. Recomendamos ampliamente usar una máscara facial y hacerse una prueba rápida de Covid-19 antes de asistir.

SUMMARY:CDC's COVID Collapse: Organizing for a People's Response (part 2)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for part 2 of “CDC’s Covid Collapse”. We will split into three working groups. See below for more information and sign up here. \n—- \nCandidate Joe Biden denounced the Trump administration’s handling of the COVID pandemic. And with good reason. In less than a year\, half-a-million Americans were killed by both the virus and the negligent response. Despite running on a platform to get the outbreak under control\, and even now with a vaccine in hand\, by next spring the new administration will bear responsibility for another half-a-million passing. \nLike its predecessor\, the Biden administration has repeatedly tried to turn the page on COVID\, largely in the service of reopening the economy first\, rather than intervening into this major public health emergency at the scale it requires. Under both administrations\, the CDC has repeatedly bent the science of COVID against a full-spectrum response and increasingly with the aim of sending millions back to work and school under what have proven to remain dangerous conditions. That kind of anti-public health approach is unacceptable. \nWhat does a people’s response to such a dereliction of public health duty look like? Join our panel of epidemiologists and community leaders for a discussion of what an exit out of the COVID trap requires. Help set up working groups to push for specific interventions that are proven to help both control the COVID outbreak and mitigate the burdens that arise from these intercessions. Despair alone is not an option. We need to act!
