SUMMARY:"Divisible" film screening and discussion: Benson Theatre
DESCRIPTION:“Divisible” is a documentary feature film about the history and current impacts of redlining in the United States\, focusing on the specific case of Omaha\, Nebraska to show how this practice continually affects and harms people and cities across the nation. \nRedlining was a government policy beginning in 1934 that designated specific areas of cities to receive financial support and excluded low-income areas and communities of color\, targeting them for disinvestment and decline. This targeting reflected a long history of racism. These disfavored redlined neighborhoods were overwhelmingly populated by people of color. The resulting disinvestment exacerbated pre-existing socio-economic and racial disparities. While redlining as government policy was ultimately banned in 1968\, the harmful impacts are clear to this day and many of the informal practices continue. \nYet most Americans do not know what ‘redlining’ means\, much less its powerful and persistent implications. This lack of understanding about redlining skews many Americans’ perceptions of various socioeconomic disparities past and present. As such\, Divisible aims to build awareness of the historical context that precipitated redlining\, and the ways redlining’s effects are still felt to this day in the lives of many. \nEach screening will include a panel of film participants and issue experts for a Q&A with attendees.

SUMMARY:DEIA Lunch and Learn Series with Michelle Troxclair
DESCRIPTION:Diversity\, equity\, inclusion and access are terms we’ve heard recently being used by companies and organizations as a way to fight against harm and appear to engage all people. But what do they actually mean and how do we trust that they’re more than just trendy buzzwords? How do they translate into hiring practices\, doing more than just inviting diverse faces to the table but also embracing their ideas\, culture and voices. How do these words acknowledge the neuro and ability divergent? How do we go beyond the buzzwords and embrace the discomfort that comes with real change? \nThis series of conversation events facilitated by Michelle Troxclair will consider the stories of panelists with experience in each session’s topic. \n\nApril 24\, 2023\, 11am-1pm – Panel discussion to include Indigenous perspectives and how organizations can conduct real outreach.\nMay 11\, 2023 – 6pm-9pm – Panel discussion regarding the role of privilege in hiring\, maintaining workers and customers from marginalized communities.\nJune 26\, 2023 – 11am-1pm – Panel discussion addressing the LGBTQ+ community\, policy and legislation\, workplace toxicity and hate rhetoric and crime.\n\nEvents are free\, but registration is required.
