SUMMARY:Charting Our Path: Celebrating 50 Years of Black Studies (1971-2021) Traveling Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Charting Our Path: Celebrating 50 Years of Black Studies is an 8-panel traveling exhibit sharing historical snapshots of one of the oldest Black Studies departments in the nation. The exhibit highlights the department’s civil rights origins\, attempts to downgrade the department to a program\, and the mutual engagement between campus and community. The banners share archival materials such as newspaper clippings\, department documents\, and photos chronicling events from the 1969 campus sit-in to the celebration of the “Omaha 54” student activists 52 years later. The history of the Department of Black Studies has been characterized by a constant struggle for survival\, but also by the enduring engagement and support of the Omaha Black community.

SUMMARY:Not Too Far Distant
DESCRIPTION:A new play by Becky Boesen\, commissioned by History Nebraska\, inspired by the life of Clarence Williams \n“It’s almost unbelievable that anyone could be hardened to the point of doing the brutal things they did…” A young man from the midwest is sent to war\, carrying with him the hopes of the free world. What Staff Sergeant Clarence Williams encounters there challenges and changes humanity forever. History touches the present when a new generation takes a journey through time to experience World War II alongside Clarence himself. Centered around his personal letters home\, we learn that sometimes what seems so far away is much closer than we think. Filled with hope and heart\, Not Too Far Distant honors the experience of the American soldier and reminds us that we all have the power – and the responsibility – to help create a brighter future. \nThe performance will be followed by a scholar-led conversation on Nebraska and holocaust history. \nTickets for this performance are $10 and may be purchased here.

SUMMARY:Not Too Far Distant Student Matinee
DESCRIPTION:A new play by Becky Boesen\, commissioned by History Nebraska\, inspired by the life of Clarence Williams \n“It’s almost unbelievable that anyone could be hardened to the point of doing the brutal things they did…” A young man from the midwest is sent to war\, carrying with him the hopes of the free world. What Staff Sergeant Clarence Williams encounters there challenges and changes humanity forever. History touches the present when a new generation takes a journey through time to experience World War II alongside Clarence himself. Centered around his personal letters home\, we learn that sometimes what seems so far away is much closer than we think. Filled with hope and heart\, Not Too Far Distant honors the experience of the American soldier and reminds us that we all have the power – and the responsibility – to help create a brighter future.

SUMMARY:Sergey Melnitchenko at the UNK James E. Smith Conference on World Affairs
DESCRIPTION:This year’s conference theme is “For Better or Worse: Crossing the Line.” The world we live in is filled with visible and invisible lines—directing us\, connecting us\, and dividing us. We create them\, negotiate them\, erase them\, replace them\, and\, of course\, cross them both accidentally and deliberately every day of our lives. We cross streets to visit our neighbors but sometimes also to confront them. We cross class\, ethnic\, religious\, and gender lines in ways that expand and enrich our social fabric but sometimes also risking tearing it. We cross national lines to see the world and learn about new cultures but also to conquer other civilizations\, imposing our own cultural values upon them. And meanwhile\, nature itself ignores all our artificially imposed boundaries—storms\, heat waves\, fires\, viruses\, and species move and cross these lines at will—sometimes for better\, sometimes for worse. \nThe conference is accompanied by the Crossing the Line Exhibition at the Walker Art Gallery. The exhibition showcases the work of the artists displaced by turbulent historical events including the current Russian-Ukrainian conflict. It features the work of 6 immigrant artists currently residing in the USA\, prints from a group of students and professors from the Wroclaw Art Academy in Poland\, and photographs created by the Mykolaiv Young Photographer’s group (MYPH) from Mykolaiv\, Ukraine. \nSergey Melnitchenko will give a talk entitled “Art is Keeping Us Alive in this War.” Melnitchenko was born in Mykolaiv\, Ukraine\, (located just 60 miles NW of Kherson) in 1991. He began taking photographs in 2009 and in 2018 founded the MYPH\, a school for\nconceptual and art photography. He is also a member of the Ukrainian Photo Alternative (UPHA). Melnitchenko is a winner of multiple Ukrainian and international competitions\, including Berlin’s Leica Oskar Barnack Newcomer Award in 2017. In 2020\, he was nominated for Amsterdam’s prestigious Foam Paul Huf Award that recognizes generational talent demonstrating a personal visual language and style. Melnitchenko’s work has appeared in over 70 publications\, and he has published nine books of photography. \nThe full conference runs from 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on Nov. 14 and 9:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. on Nov. 15\, and will feature keynote speaker Sonia Nazario. See here for the full conference schedule. \nIn-person and virtual attendance is free. Registration is required for livestream attendance. Register here. Virtual sessions will be livestreamed but not recorded.
