Register online here. \n\nThis is our first named chair at the University of Orange\, a people’s free university in Orange\, NJ\, Mindy’s hometown. UofO is grounded in Dr. Fullilove’s four decades of work identifying the root causes of our social disconnection and creating the tools we need to reweave our fractured country. For sixteen years\, UofOrange has been developing and practicing the skills essential for civic connection and collaboration to address the challenges we face together. We believe these are the skills and practices we need in this moment of American metacrisis. \nTo sustain and grow this work\, we are launching a campaign to support The Helen and Robert Fullilove Chair in Community Public Health at the University of Orange. We invite anyone who has been influenced and shaped by Mindy’s research and teaching to consider making a donation in support of this milestone. Your investment will support both the Chair and the University of Orange\, ensuring that Dr. Mindy Fullilove’s decades of research and practice continue to shape the future. It will fund: \n\nA permanent home at the people’s free school for Dr. Fullilove’s research\, writings and teachings.\nFacts people need and media they can use: free public workshops\, reading groups toolkits and other resources to support communities with tools for healing.\nThe longevity and health of our community campus at the HUUB\, a space for collective learning\, organizing\, and civic engagement.\nUofO’s ability to convene partners across the country\, sharing knowledge and strategies for rebuilding communities.\n\nIf you have any questions you can get in touch by emailing mollyrose@universityoforange.org to discuss how to mobilize your network or institutional affiliation. \nAbout Helen and Robert E. Fullilove: \nDr. Robert Fullilove was among the first African American physicians to become a Diplomate of the American Board of Urology in 1948 and at the time of his death\, was the first African American President of the Essex County Medical Society. Helen Fullilove was the first African American woman to serve as the president of the Newark\, NJ Board of Education and served as a member of the New Jersey School Boards Association. The Helen and Robert Fullilove Chair in Community Health will serve as an ongoing commitment to that work and will serve as UofO’s enduring promise to achieve the goals and objectives in health and education that the lives of the Fulliloves so powerfully inspired. \n\nPlease join us!

SUMMARY:Managing Shock and Awe: Lessons from Root Shock and Collective Recovery
DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays\, March 5\, 12\, 19 and 26\n6pm-7pm ET via Zoom \nThe attacks of the Trump administration have upended the world and this kind of upheaval causes “root shock.” Root shock is the traumatic stress reaction to the loss of some or all of our emotional ecosystem. This four-session course will answer the question: How do we manage root shock and move forward with a collective vision? Drawing on 25 years of work on Collective Recovery\, we will look at specific tasks\, including staying centered\, gathering with others to name the moment\, finding what we’re FOR\, and building coalitions for the work ahead. The course will include presentations\, readings\, daily journaling\, and interactive activities. \nRegister for the course here. \nCourse Director: \nMindy Thompson Fullilove\, MD\, DLFAPA\, Hon AIA\, is a social psychiatrist\, a native of Orange\, NJ\, and a co-founder of the University of Orange. Since 1986\, she has conducted research on AIDS and other epidemics of poor communities\, with a special interest in the relationship between the collapse of communities and decline in health. She has published over 100 scientific papers and eight books. Among her books are the highly-regarded Urban Restoration Trilogy\, Root Shock: How Tearing Up City Neighborhoods Hurts America and What We Can Do About It\, Urban Alchemy: Restoring Joy in America’s Sorted-Out Cities\, and Main Street: How a City’s Heart Connects Us All. She holds two honorary doctorates and is a distinguished life fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and honorary member of the American Institute of Architects. In the Fall of 2023 she delivered the Mary Flexner Lectures at Bryn Mawr College based on her new research and forthcoming book on the “Tao of K-drama.”

SUMMARY:What's the Story? A Memoir Writing Class - Winter 2025
DESCRIPTION:10-week virtual memoir class offered by UofO\, taught by developmental editor Susan Hasho \nThe class is held on Wednesdays 11:00am to 12:15pm on Zoom\, and will run January 15 – March 19\, 2025. \nWhat’s the Story? A Memoir Writing Class \nDo you have some stories you’d like to tell? There may be stories about your life that you want to tell your children or grandchildren\, perhaps about another country or culture you came from or your parents came from. Was there an experience that changed your life or your neighborhood? How about if you were in the military and you want to share something about that? If you have a desire to share or describe anything that you are fascinated by\, care about or even want to change\, this class is a place to do that.\n \nFormat \nWhat’s the Story is a 10-week writing class that intends to provoke\, free and guide anyone to write a memoir that reflects their own unique voice and life experience. This is a workshop-style interactive course. Participants will take turns sharing their work and have opportunities to receive feedback and guidance from the instructor and the other participants. There is also time to discuss technical skills\, confront creative blocks\, and set writing goals. All writing is done outside of class at your own pace. \nLike all UofO events\, this class is offered for free\, but your tax-deductible donation goes a long way to cover the costs of delivering the course. \nPlease register for the class here. \nSusan Hasho is a developmental editor which is an editor involved in the mysterious process of enabling writers and anyone interested in writing to find their way through the maze of expectations\, judgment and even fear to find the true heart of what they want to write. She has trained and worked as an actor and writer\, and moved into the advertising field to work as a copy editor for advertising agencies and Fortune 500 companies. She began working with writers several years ago as an editor and it became her goal to teach a writing class that would enable people to be as free of self-criticism and inhibiting expectations as possible in order to write clearly and openly with joy.

DESCRIPTION:Wednesdays\, March 5\, 12\, 19 and 26\n6pm-7pm ET via Zoom \nThe attacks of the Trump administration have upended the world and this kind of upheaval causes “root shock.” Root shock is the traumatic stress reaction to the loss of some or all of our emotional ecosystem. This four-session course will answer the question: How do we manage root shock and move forward with a collective vision? Drawing on 25 years of work on Collective Recovery\, we will look at specific tasks\, including staying centered\, gathering with others to name the moment\, finding what we’re FOR\, and building coalitions for the work ahead. The course will include presentations\, readings\, daily journaling\, and interactive activities. \nRegister for the course here. \nCourse Director: \nMindy Thompson Fullilove\, MD\, DLFAPA\, Hon AIA\, is a social psychiatrist\, a native of Orange\, NJ\, and a co-founder of the University of Orange. Since 1986\, she has conducted research on AIDS and other epidemics of poor communities\, with a special interest in the relationship between the collapse of communities and decline in health. She has published over 100 scientific papers and eight books. Among her books are the highly-regarded Urban Restoration Trilogy\, Root Shock: How Tearing Up City Neighborhoods Hurts America and What We Can Do About It\, Urban Alchemy: Restoring Joy in America’s Sorted-Out Cities\, and Main Street: How a City’s Heart Connects Us All. She holds two honorary doctorates and is a distinguished life fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and honorary member of the American Institute of Architects. In the Fall of 2023 she delivered the Mary Flexner Lectures at Bryn Mawr College based on her new research and forthcoming book on the “Tao of K-drama.”

There may be stories about your life that you want to tell your children or grandchildren\, perhaps about another country or culture you came from or your parents came from. Was there an experience that changed your life or your neighborhood? How about if you were in the military and you want to share something about that? If you have a desire to share or describe anything that you are fascinated by\, care about or even want to change\, this class is a place to do that.\n \nFormat \nWhat’s the Story is a 10-week writing class that intends to provoke\, free and guide anyone to write a memoir that reflects their own unique voice and life experience. This is a workshop-style interactive course. Participants will take turns sharing their work and have opportunities to receive feedback and guidance from the instructor and the other participants. There is also time to discuss technical skills\, confront creative blocks\, and set writing goals. All writing is done outside of class at your own pace. \nLike all UofO events\, this class is offered for free\, but your tax-deductible donation goes a long way to cover the costs of delivering the course. \nPlease register for the class here. \nSusan Hasho is a developmental editor which is an editor involved in the mysterious process of enabling writers and anyone interested in writing to find their way through the maze of expectations\, judgment and even fear to find the true heart of what they want to write. She has trained and worked as an actor and writer\, and moved into the advertising field to work as a copy editor for advertising agencies and Fortune 500 companies. She began working with writers several years ago as an editor and it became her goal to teach a writing class that would enable people to be as free of self-criticism and inhibiting expectations as possible in order to write clearly and openly with joy.

SUMMARY:Listening with the Prophetic Ear
DESCRIPTION:The HUUB Community Campus will hold a special event on January 20th\, Martin Luther King Day. \nBishop William Barber\, leader of Repairers of the Breach and the Poor People’s Campaign\, has called us to a special task on January 20th: listening to the new President’s Inaugural Address with the “prophetic ear.” Bishop Barber proposes that we need to pay careful attention as all the promises of the campaign season are left behind and the new administration begins to take steps. By our careful attention\, we can discern which of the myriad things the President-elect has said he would are now actually on the agenda. \nWe will convene at The HUUB at 11:30am for an opening session\, “Clearing Our Listening.” We will talk about what it means to listen with the “prophetic ear.” We will listen to some opening words from Faith+Works UU Congregation minister Rev Dr Edgar Rivera Colon. \nAt noon\, we will turn our attention to lunch and the inauguration. We will listen to the President’s remarks with care and concern. Following his remarks\, we will debrief. \nWe will reconvene at 7pm to hear Bishop Barber and colleagues share with us what they heard and what they see as next steps. Dinner will be served. \nPlease RSVP to info@universityoforange.org for one or both of these events. That way\, we can be sure to put your name in the pot. If you would like to join virtually\, please register for the Zoom link here.
