SUMMARY:Watershed Connections: Land\, Water\, and People
DESCRIPTION:Houston is the Bayou City\, but many of us do not touch or experience these creeks and streams in our daily lives. We drive past and over bayous without seeing them\, but every day we make decisions and take actions that impact our water in profound ways. Are your actions having a positive or negative affect on our local surface water? Its quality? Its quantity? Join Charriss York\, Program Director for Green Infrastructure and Stormwater at Texas Community Watershed Partners as she discusses the intersection of land\, water\, and people along with steps we can take as both individuals and a community to address local water issues\, because as James Karr said\, “what we do on the land\, we read in the water.” Time for interactive Q&A with the speaker will be provided. Please register for this talk on www.eventbrite.com at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/watershed-connections-land-water-and-people-tickets-530691371177.

SUMMARY:ZEE CLARKE OFFERS TOOLS AND SUPPORT FOR BIPOC COMMUNITIES WITH THE LAUNCH OF HER NEW BOOK\, BLACK PEOPLE BREATHE\, AT HOUSTON MUSEUM OF AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURE
DESCRIPTION:WHO:  Zee Clarke is a Harvard MBA and mindfulness and breathwork expert for BIPOC communities.     After spending more than 20 years leading teams at Fortune 500 companies and tech startups in Silicon Valley\, Zee realized that mindfulness and breathwork were much more powerful outside of the yoga studio and in the context of our everyday lives. Trained in India\, Zee leverages her toolkit of yoga\, meditation\, breathwork\, sound healing\, and Reiki\, to ensure that all people of    color have the tools to thrive despite any challenges that race or gender might present. Founder of Reclaiming FlowLLC\, she works with employee resource groups and Diversity\, Equity & Inclusion teams at companies like Google\, Visa\, and AMC Networks. She is a graduate of both Harvard College and Harvard Business School. \nWHAT:  Black People Breathe (March 14\, 2023 // Penguin Random House) draws on Zee’s professional   expertise and her perspective as a Black woman to offer thirty-three mindfulness exercises\, Breathwork practices\, and meditative tools centered on healing and survival for those who have endured racial trauma. Studies show that mindfulness can ease mental health concerns\, and having experienced the benefits firsthand\, Zee shares the practices that have been essential to her well-being. \nBlack People Breathe is filled with deeply personal stories highlighting the many systemic challenges that people of color face. This mixture of guide and memoir offers practical techniques based on the emotions elicited from these experiences. \nThough this collection was created to facilitate healing for communities of color\, it also offers allies insight into the discrimination and inequity that these communities face\, creating a space for deeper empathy and the inspiration to drive change.

SUMMARY:Dialogue on the Plantations
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Center for the Healing of Racism for the 5th annual Dialogue on the Plantation\, March 11-12\, 2023. We will travel together by bus to experience a powerful tour of three Louisiana plantations.  Our first stop on will be St. Joseph Plantation\, a working sugar cane plantation east of New Orleans. Oprah Winfrey’s hit drama Queen Sugar was filmed there. Our next stop is Laura Plantation\, a Creole plantation. Creole life in Louisiana exhibited a unique\, characteristic thread: the understanding that the family operated as a business and that the business was family. We’ll conclude our first day together with dinner and dialogue. \nAfter a continental breakfast the next morning\, we take a 90-minute tour of Whitney Plantation\, a genuine landmark built by enslaved Africans and their descendants. As a site of memory and consciousness\, the Whitney Plantation is meant to pay homage to all the enslaved humans not only on the plantation itself but elsewhere in the American South. Whitney Plantation is one of the few plantations to focus only on the enslaved people who were forced to work there and not on its opulence. After the tour\, we will gather in a picnic area to dialogue about the trip and the history we learned before heading home. \nFor more information and costs: 713-520-8226. \n\nhttps://www.centerhealingracism.org/event/5th-annual-dialogue-on-the-plantation/

SUMMARY:Student-Led Resistance to Voter Suppression\, Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:The history of voter suppression efforts on HBCU campuses is long and ugly\, but there is an equally long history of student-led resistance.  Please join the Center for the Healing of Racism on Monday\, February 27\, 2023\, 6:00 to 8:00 PM (on Zoom)\, to hear Prairie View A&M professor Ron Goodwin\, Ph.D. discuss the history of voter suppression and student resistance at Prairie View A&M in Texas. Dr. Goodwin is an engaging\, passionate\, and authentic speaker who will draw on the lessons of history to provide context for current efforts to restrict access to democracy for students of color and to perpetuate racism and racial disparities through interference in education. A facilitated dialogue will follow the presentation.\n\nRon Goodwin is an Associate Professor at Prairie View A&M University and a native of San Antonio\, Texas. His research interests focus on the intersection of race and neighborhood development\, the political impacts of the urban planning processes\, and the cultural preservation of Texas’ Black community through the New Deal’s Slave Narratives. This event is free and open to the public\, with donations encouraged. To receive a Zoom link please register — no later than February 26 — on our website: https://www.centerhealingracism.org/event/student-led-resistance-to-voter-suppression-then-and-now-zoom/

SUMMARY:Reconnecting Communities after a Natural Disaster
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Brett Perkison of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston for a discussion of the effects that repeated record flooding due to climate change can have on local communities – often having more impact on lower socioeconomic communities who have less flood control measures put in place and have less resilience to recover from them due to financial constraints. Dr. Perkison will also focus on efforts of the local Houston community to improve resiliency through public advocacy – reviewing both the progress and the barriers that they have had encountered along the way. Interactive discussion with the virtual audience about how members of the Houston community can help to be better prepared for the next flooding event and how they can best assist their neighbors will be encouraged.

SUMMARY:The Age of Reason or the Annihilation of Humanity
DESCRIPTION:We are in an epochal change.  The countries of the Global South are now demanding their innate right for development. \nThe old order\, which neither follows rules\, nor is in  order\, is trying to prevent a change in the status quo\, which protects the rights of the billionaires\, but neglects the billions of people who suffer from scarcity. \nThere is now an attempt to establish Global NATO through an interconnected network of military treaties\, the NATO- EU agreement\, the AUKUS (Australia-United Kingdom-United States partnership)\, the UK-Japan “Reciprocal Access Agreement\,” which look more and more like a march towards a global showdown with Russia and China\, whose rise is seen as an existential threat. \nIt should be clear to any sane person: global war will be nuclear and that will be the end of civilization. So\, it is completely insane to plan for it. And to deny the countries of the Global South access to cooperation with the BRI (Belt and Road Initiative)\, which is\, for the first time\, giving hope to the developing sector to overcome poverty and underdevelopment\, is outright evil. \nIt is therefore more urgent than ever to find forces for peace in all countries of the world\, who understand that we need to move to a new paradigm in international relations.    What will this new paradigm look like.  How can we cooperate across national and cultural divisions to bring it about.  This live forum will feature speakers from Europe\, Asia\, Africa\, Central and South America\, and the USA.  A roster of speakers will soon be posted on SchillerInstitute.com.

SUMMARY:Faithful Resilience: A Study on Climate Resilience for Faith Communities
DESCRIPTION:Faithful Resilience is a six-part weekly study on climate resilience for faith communities. The climate crisis has arrived. Faith communities must not only react\, but also prepare. Over the last decade\, hurricanes have intensified\, wildfires have burnt stronger\, and heat waves have baked our cities. These events can only be expected to get worse in the next decades. Most of our faith communities are not ready for these climate-driven disasters. Yet\, the communities who will be most threatened by climate change also have an opportunity to play a pivotal role in building resilience in their towns and cities. Whether a faith community has a large facility\, land\, social capital\, or something else\, those assets can be channeled into building climate resilience in preparation for the coming physical and spiritual storms of the climate crisis. Join us for this six-week weekly exploration and consider how your faith community can become a force for climate resilience.
