SUMMARY:Nice is Not Enough: Understanding Systemic Oppression with Rory Gilbert
DESCRIPTION:Current events across the nation are challenging us to take a hard look at how some groups of people are being treated differently from others on a daily basis. Why does this happen?

As the beneficiaries of these systemic decisions\, policies or laws\, we are often not even aware of the impact on us\, or the harm to others. This program provides an opportunity to explore how systems impact people differently\, and the steps we can take personally to eliminate unfair treatment and harm to others.

SUMMARY:Our Right To Assemble: The History of Protest and Civil Disobedience in the U.S.
DESCRIPTION:The First Amendment prohibits the government from abridging “the right of the people peaceably to assemble.” This basic freedom ensures the right of people to come together and collectively express\, promote\, pursue\, and defend their collective or shared ideas. When and how have people engaged in protest? Who has engaged in protest? What is civil disobedience? Does everyone have the same right to assemble? In recent days the brutal murders of African Americans by the police has sparked widespread protest across the U.S. and even abroad. How do we balance public safety and human rights? How do race\, power and class impact access to free speech and the right to assemble? Participants will explore these questions in a safe\, interactive discussion. REGISTER FOR THE EVENT HERE. \n  \nAbout the Speaker\nMatthew Whitaker is a decorated educator\, historian\, author\, social justice advocate\, motivational speaker\, and founder of the ASU Center for the Study of Race and Democracy\, where he taught for 16 years. Whitaker’s expertise lies in U.S. history\, African American history\, race relations\, social movements\, cultural competency\, equity and inclusion\, teaching excellence\, and community partnerships.  Whitaker has received numerous awards including the 2016 DLA Diversity and Inclusion Award\, ASU’s 2015 Pioneer Award for work on African American life and culture\, and 2014 DLA Inclusive Workplace Award.

SUMMARY:Do You See What I See? Implicit Bias For Better or Worse with Rory Gilbert
DESCRIPTION:We come from different places and backgrounds. Our life experiences and backgrounds can affect the way we see the world and each other\, for better or worse. What is implicit bias\, and how does it shape our attitudes and actions towards others? How do stereotypes affect our understanding\, actions\, and decisions? “Implicit bias” can cause us to have feelings and attitudes about other people based on characteristics such as race\, ethnicity\, age\, ability\, and appearance. How can we learn to navigate the world as seen through the eyes of people different from us? How can we share what we have learned with people at home\, at work\, and in the communities we live in?

SUMMARY:Gender\, Race\, Class and Election 2020 with Matthew Whitaker

SUMMARY:The History of Police and Policing with Matthew Whitaker
DESCRIPTION:What is the history of policing in the U.S.? Where did police come from\, and what was their role? How did police interact with communities in the past? How do police interact with communities now? Recent clashes between the police and the public have thrust the nation into a period of social unrest and violence not seen since the 1960s. The public has called for immediate and dramatic change. Do we still need the police? How do communities ensure public safety in the future for everyone? Participants will explore these questions in a safe\, interactive discussion\, that will help them understand and improve the relationship between the police and community. \nAbout the Speaker \nMatthew Whitaker is a decorated educator\, historian\, author\, social justice advocate\, motivational speaker\, and founder of the ASU Center for the Study of Race and Democracy\, where he taught for 16 years.

SUMMARY:CANCELED - Water in Arizona: Sustainability\, Supply and Demand
DESCRIPTION:Water is necessary for life\, but as supply shrinks\, choices must be made about who is given access to water and who isn’t. Communities across Arizona are going dry. This means that some residents may have no choice except to move. How do we decide who gets access to water\, and who does not? Should the needs of the many be placed above the needs of the few? How do we address the social and moral issues raised by competition for scarce resources\, locally\, regionally and nationwide? Join us for a discussion about water in Arizona\, sustainability and the supply/demand imbalance. \nPaul Hirt is a Professor of History\, Senior Sustainability Scholar\, and member of the public history faculty at Arizona State University. He specializes in the American West\, environmental history\, and sustainability studies. Hirt’s publications include a 2012 monograph on the history of electric power in the US Northwest and British Columbia titled The Wired Northwest\, a monograph on the history of national forest management since WWII\, titled A Conspiracy of Optimism (1994)\, and more than two dozen articles and book chapters on various topics in environmental history\, including two essays on water and sustainability in Arizona. Dr. Hirt conceived and directed the “Nature\, Culture\, and History at Grand Canyon” project funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities he chairs the American Society for Environmental History’s Advisory Board for Professional Development and Public Engagement\, and he is an elected member of the Board of Directors of the Salt River Project.

SUMMARY:CANCELED - Energy Resources in Arizona: A State of Energy Transition
DESCRIPTION:Arizonans are living in a period of energy transition. Cleaner\, renewable energy sources are becoming cheaper than traditional fossil fuel energy sources. Although this transition may be better for the environment\, its effects on the economies of some Arizona communities can be devastating. The rapid shift from fossil fuels such as coal\, oil and natural gas\, to renewable energy is having a profound impact on the Navajo and Hopi nations. How do we respond locally\, regionally and nationally to the impact of these energy transitions? What can be done to lessen the negative effects? Join us for a lively discussion about the economic\, social and moral impact of energy transitions in Arizona. \nPaul Hirt is a Professor of History\, Senior Sustainability Scholar\, and member of the public history faculty at Arizona State University.

SUMMARY:CANCELED - Energy Resources in Arizona: A State of Energy Transition
DESCRIPTION:Arizonans are living in a period of energy transition. Cleaner\, renewable energy sources are becoming cheaper than traditional fossil fuel energy sources. Although this transition may be better for the environment\, its effects on the economies of some Arizona communities can be devastating. The rapid shift from fossil fuels such as coal\, oil and natural gas\, to renewable energy is having a profound impact on the Navajo and Hopi nations. How do we respond locally\, regionally and nationally to the impact of these energy transitions? What can be done to lessen the negative effects? Join us for a lively discussion about the economic\, social and moral impact of energy transitions in Arizona. \nPaul Hirt is a Professor of History\, Senior Sustainability Scholar\, and member of the public history faculty at Arizona State University. He specializes in the American West\, environmental history\, and sustainability studies. Hirt’s publications include a 2012 monograph on the history of electric power in the US Northwest and British Columbia titled The Wired Northwest\, a monograph on the history of national forest management since WWII\, titled A Conspiracy of Optimism (1994)\, and more than two dozen articles and book chapters on various topics in environmental history\, including two essays on water and sustainability in Arizona. Dr. Hirt conceived and directed the “Nature\, Culture\, and History at Grand Canyon” project funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities he chairs the American Society for Environmental History’s Advisory Board for Professional Development and Public Engagement\, and he is an elected member of the Board of Directors of the Salt River Project.

SUMMARY:Water in Arizona: Sustainability\, Supply and Demand
DESCRIPTION:Water is necessary for life\, but as supply shrinks\, choices must be made about who is given access to water and who isn’t. Communities across Arizona are going dry. This means that some residents may have no choice except to move. How do we decide who gets access to water\, and who does not? Should the needs of the many be placed above the needs of the few? How do we address the social and moral issues raised by competition for scarce resources\, locally\, regionally and nationwide? Join us for a discussion about water in Arizona\, sustainability and the supply/demand imbalance. \nPaul Hirt is a Professor of History\, Senior Sustainability Scholar\, and member of the public history faculty at Arizona State University.

SUMMARY:Through My Eyes- The Impact of Implicit Bias
DESCRIPTION:We come from different places and backgrounds. Our life experiences and backgrounds can affect the way we see the world and each other\, for better or worse. What is implicit bias\, and how does it shape our attitudes and actions towards others? How do stereotypes affect our understanding\, actions\, and decisions? “Implicit bias” can cause us to have feelings and attitudes about other people based on characteristics such as race\, ethnicity\, age\, and appearance. How can we learn to navigate the world we see “through our eyes\,” and the world as seen through the eyes of people different from us? \nMatthew Whitaker is a decorated educator\, historian\, author\, social justice advocate\, motivational speaker\, and founder of the ASU Center for the Study of Race and Democracy\, where he taught for 16 years. Whitaker’s expertise lies in U.S. history\, African American history\, race relations\, social movements\, cultural competency\, equity and inclusion\, teaching excellence\, and community partnerships.  Whitaker has received numerous awards including the 2016 DLA Diversity and Inclusion Award\, ASU’s 2015 Pioneer Award for work on African American life and culture\, and 2014 DLA Inclusive Workplace Award.

SUMMARY:Free Speech: Can I Tell You How Much I Hate You?
DESCRIPTION:Freedom of speech is fundamental in a democratic society. It means that a person or a community can express their opinion or ideas without fear of retaliation or censorship. But what happens when the opinions expressed are unpopular\, violent or dangerous? Whether expressed in person\, or through social media\, words can have a powerful effect on our sense of safety\, inclusion or exclusion\, and equality or inequality. What is “hate speech?” Who decides what speech is protected\, and what is not? Who regulates social media content? What is the impact on individuals and communities who are silenced? Explore the complex history of first amendment freedoms of speech\, expression and assembly in America. \nGail Rhodes is a PhD student and an adjunct professor at the Cronkite School with more than 16 years of professional experience working as a television reporter. She worked for the Fox Sports Network in Chicago and helped to launch the Comcast Sports Network. Rhodes has been an adjunct professor for Cronkite since 2014\, where she teaches advanced television sports reporting\, and advanced topics in sports media. Her doctoral studies focus on the intersection of sports culture\, media and society.

SUMMARY:Hip Hop and American Culture
DESCRIPTION:Can music shape public opinions and foster social change? Does music expand our cultural knowledge or reinforce stereotypes? How does Hip Hop affect perceptions of youth\, class\, power and authority?

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Crime\, Punishment\, and Prisons in America - Ajo
DESCRIPTION:Dr. T.J. Davis\, Arizona State University\, School of Historical\, Philosophical and Religious Studies\n\nThe United States officially incarcerates more persons than any other nation on earth. Incarceration cost U.S. taxpayers more than $80 billion in 2016. Some states such as New York in the East and Washington in the West spend between $50\,000 and $60\,000 a year for each prisoner. What does that cost buy? What purposes does imprisonment serve or should it serve? Who should be imprisoned? For what? Why? Who should operate prisons in the United States–government or for-profit corporations? Join us for this FRANK Talk to explore issues of mass incarceration in America. \n\nDr. Thomas J. Davis teaches U.S. constitutional and legal history at ASU and has taught as a visiting professor of law at the ASU College of Law. As an historian and lawyer\, in addition to constitutional matters\, he focuses on civil rights\, particularly on issues of race\, identity and law\, employment\, and property law.

DESCRIPTION:Dr. T.J. Davis\, Arizona State University\, School of Historical\, Philosophical and Religious Studies \n\nWhat does it mean to be a U.S. citizen? Few discussions directly address the question or the difference between citizens and others in the United States. What is it that makes or allows citizens to be different from others? What can or should citizens be able to do that others cannot or should not be able to do? Join us for this FRANK Talk to explore the meaning of citizenship and how it informs the values of civic life\, and public participation and policy in American democratic institutions. \nDr. Thomas J. Davis teaches U.S. constitutional and legal history at ASU and has taught as a visiting professor of law at the ASU College of Law. As an historian and lawyer\, in addition to constitutional matters\, he focuses on civil rights\, particularly on issues of race\, identity and law\, employment\, and property law. Davis received his Ph.D. in U.S. history from Columbia University and his JD cum laude from the University at Buffalo Law School. He is the author most recently of History of African Americans: Exploring Diverse Roots (Santa Barbara CA\, 2016).

SUMMARY:School Choice in Arizona - Flagstaff
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Angelina Castagno\, Northern Arizona University\, Educational Foundations \nArizona is one of the nation’s most “choice friendly” states regarding educational opportunities at the K-12 level. “School choice” is a term for K–12 schooling options in the U.S. describing a wide array of alternatives to public schools\, including charter schools. The expansion of charter schools and vouchers (often called educational savings accounts) is not without controversy. Does school choice improve school quality? Does school choice increase educational opportunity for all students? Has school choice fostered the privatization of education in the U.S.? Join us for a FRANK Talk about the policy and practical implications of school choice. \nDr. Angelina E. Castagno is an Associate Professor of Educational Leadership and Foundations at Northern Arizona University. She is also the Executive Director of Just Perspective\, LLC\, which provides equity consulting\, diversity education\, and culturally responsive program evaluation to schools\, universities\, and community organizations. Her teaching and research centers on equity and diversity in U.S. schools\, and particularly issues of whiteness and Indigenous education. Her most recent publication is an edited volume (with Teresa L. McCarty) called The anthropology of education policy: Ethnographic inquiries into policy as sociocultural process\, with Routledge. She also published Educated in Whiteness: Good intentions and diversity in schools in 2014\, with the University of Minnesota Press.

DESCRIPTION:Eradicating Global Hunger: Is Genetically Modified Food (GMO) a Solution?\nJulian Kunnie\, University of Arizona\, Religious Studies/Classics/Africana Studies/Indigenous/Globalization Studies \nTechnological innovations in the early 21st century have promoted the development of genetically modified seeds and foods\, as a potential solution to the crisis of world hunger.   Eighty percent of the corn\, soy\, and cotton cultivated in the U.S. today\, is genetically modified. Is GMO seed and food production the best solution to address hunger and food shortages? What are the environmental and agricultural consequences of pervasive GMO seed cultivation in the U.S and abroad? Are GMO’s dangerous? Do GMO’s affect our health and welfare today?
