SUMMARY:Retelling Our Story of Aging: Reimagining the Future through Community\, Research\, and Action.
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, March 5th\, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Social Work will host the fifth annual Legacy Speakers Series at the Friday Center\, from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. \nJoin the UNC School of Social Work for our 5th annual Legacy Speakers Series. This year’s event\, Retelling Our Story of Aging: Reimagining the Future through Community\, Research\, and Action\, invites participants to explore a strengths-based\, age-positive view of aging and what it will take to support thriving later in life. Spend the day with scholars\, community leaders\, and storytellers with lived experience as we examine the landscape of older adults in the United States and North Carolina and consider how communities and systems can respond more effectively. The day will be framed by keynote remarks from Kathy Greenlee\, who will offer a national perspective on aging and highlight emerging opportunities to strengthen aging supports through collaboration across communities\, research\, and systems. Lived-experience storytelling and panel discussions will further explore research-informed practices\, policy and system factors\, and practical approaches for building more inclusive\, age-friendly communities. Don’t miss this engaging event focused on shifting narratives about aging\, strengthening community supports\, and identifying actions we can take—individually and collectively—to shape a future where people can thrive as they age.

Our first two events gathered thousands of participants to engage in reckoning with UNC’s racist past and representation\, language\, and cultural appropriation\,” said Allison De Marco\, R3 co-convener\, Advanced Research Scientist\, Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute and Equity Lead\, Jordan Institute for Families. “I am so looking forward to collaborating with my colleagues to present our third event focused on scholarship that uses artistic media to confront racism and white supremacy. Art can touch our hearts and open us up to challenging conversations.” \nRegister: go.unc.edu/R3

SUMMARY:Race\, Racism\, and Racial Equity (R3) Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Race\, Racism\, and Racial Equity (R3) Symposium\, hosted by the University Office for Diversity and Inclusion\, is a series of virtual events that brings together scholars and researchers from across campus to share their work with Carolina and the broader community. \nThe second in the R3 series\, “Cultural Industry\, Techno-capitalism\, and Labor: The Mediated Exploitation of Black and Brown Bodies\,” will be held on Wednesday\, Nov. 11\, 1–2:30 p.m. \nScholars from across UNC\, including Business and Communications\, will share their work addressing issues of language\, representation\, cultural appropriation\, and decontextualization of Black and Brown labor as it appears through a variety of media. \n“It was clear after the first session held in September\, which had nearly 2\,300 registrants\, that the path we chose to pursue to highlight our researchers’ and scholars’ work examining the different intersections that race\, racism and racial equity present was very important for our campus and the broader community\,” said Gretchen C. Bellamy\, Senior Director of Education\, Operations and Initiatives in the University Office for Diversity and Inclusion. \nR3 co-convener Allison De Marco\, Equity Lead\, Jordan Institute for Families\, School of Social Work and Advanced Research Scientist\, Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute\, added\, “Our goal for the R3 symposium has always been to feature the important research happening across campus to make systems of oppression visible and this continues with the second in our series. In this panel\, we will feature scholarship from both our faculty and our doctoral students\, whose work brings to light the way that capitalist systems perpetuate cultural appropriation\, decontextualization and uncompensated labor.” \nRegister: go.unc.edu/R3

SUMMARY:Packing and Cracking: A Digital Mapmaking Event About Gerrymandering in NC
DESCRIPTION:Do we choose our politicians or do our politicians choose us? Packing and Cracking is an interactive mapmaking event about gerrymandering: the pervasive practice of politicians choosing their voters rather than the other way around. Through digital drawing and map drawing games\, Packing and Cracking uses critical cartography\, gerrymandering history\, and interviews with politicians and reformers today to show how easy and disenfranchising gerrymandering can be and ask what\, if anything\, can we do about it.

SUMMARY:Vote Protector Training: The Greater Triangle Area
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 pandemic\, new changes to election law\, and poll worker shortages pose unique challenges to voters in 2020. So Democracy NC is working to ensure that every eligible voter in our state can successfully cast their ballot. Vote Protectors (otherwise known as poll monitors) serve as our “eyes and ears on the ground” at voting sites across North Carolina.

This training will show you how to be a help and support system to voters while also staying safe!

SUMMARY:Change: A World Without Prisons- Ruth Wilson Gilmore in Conversation with Mariame Kaba
DESCRIPTION:Ruth Wilson Gilmore is a leader in the movement to abolish prisons\, which has taken on new resonance amidst current protests for racial justice and calls to “defund the police.” According to a New York Times feature on her work\, “Abolition means not just the closing of prisons but the presence\, instead\, of vital systems of support that many communities lack\,” such as education\, housing\, and health care. Gilmore\, a professor of Earth and Environmental Sciences at The Graduate Center and author of the influential book Golden Gulag\, discusses her vision not only to end mass incarceration but to transform the structure of society. She speaks with organizer Mariame Kaba\, founder and director of Project NIA and author of a recent New York Times op-ed\, “Yes\, We Mean Literally Abolish Police.” \nThis event is hosted by City University of NY’s Graduate Center.
