SUMMARY:Women on the Mother Road in Arizona: Route 66 - Flagstaff
DESCRIPTION:Screening and Discussion of Oral Histories and Documentary Film  \nCalled the “Mother Road” by author John Steinbeck\, U.S. Route 66 stretches some 2\,400 miles from Los Angeles to Chicago\, symbolic of the mobility available to Americans\, and an iconic highway for many travelers. Yet much of the historical perspective of the highway that passes through Arizona has primarily focused on men\, often overlooking the experiences of women and girls. Please join us for a screening and conversation with project director Katrina Parks\, historians Heidi Osselaer and Olivia Charest and archivist Sean Evans who will reexamine Route 66 from a female perspective. \nFunding for this program is provided in part by a grant from Arizona Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH)\, with additional support from the Mohave Museum of History and the Arts. The event is free and open to the public. For more information\, please contact Katrina Parks at katrinaparks@mac.com.

SUMMARY:The Explorations and Discoveries of George Bird Grinnell\, The Father of Glacier National Park - Queen Park
DESCRIPTION:The great West that George Bird Grinnell first encountered in 1870 as a 21-year old man was shortly to disappear before his eyes. Nobody was quicker to sense the desecration or was more eloquent in crusading against the poachers\, the hidehunters\, and the disengaged U.S. Congress than George Bird Grinnell\, the “Father of American Conservation.” Grinnell founded the first Audubon Society\, cofounded the Boone and Crockett Club with Teddy Roosevelt\, and led the effort to establish Glacier National Park. Audiences will travel back in time to the 19th century\, listening to Grinnell’s own words as taken from his field journals\, memoirs\, personal correspondence\, and newspaper editorials. \nHugh Grinnell received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from The University of Arizona. Since his retirement in 2004\, Grinnell has studied the history of the great American West. After discovering an old Great Northern Railway (GNR) passenger car named “Grinnell Glacier\,” he researched the car’s name\, and learned that the glacier was named in honor of the efforts of George Bird Grinnell\, a distant cousin of Grinnell’s who was a naturalist and explorer. He continues to carry on his research of George Bird Grinnell and the Grinnell family\, writing articles and producing DVDs. In addition to presenting throughout the state of Arizona\, Grinnell was invited by Humanities Montana to present on George Bird Grinnell and his place in Montana history and in 2010\, he presented “Saving the Great American West” for the 100th anniversary of the establishment of Glacier National Park\, held in Glacier National Park.

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Securing the Borders and Stopping Terrorism - Yuma
DESCRIPTION:Securing the Borders and Stopping Terrorism: A Constitutional Framework\nDr. T.J. Davis\, Arizona State University\, School of Historical\, Philosophical and Religious Studies \nProtecting its people is among the first priorities of any government. The Constitution’s Bill of Rights provides both for protection of the people\, but also protects against undue intrusion by the government. How should the U.S. Constitution’s system of checks and balances operate in securing U.S. borders and stopping terrorism? Who poses a danger to U.S. security and safety\, and what do we do about it?  What public policies can be implemented to fulfill the government’s competing duties to protect people\, and simultaneously respect civil liberties?  Join us for a Frank Talk examining national security and civil liberties at the border.

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Racial Literacy and Social Media - Paradise Valley
DESCRIPTION:Is This Racist? Racial Literacy and Social Media\nDr. Kathy Nakagawa\, Arizona State University\, School of Social Transformation \nMany parents and educators avoid conversations about race and racism with their children and students\, yet young people are regularly exposed to images\, stories\, videos and statements that reflect racial societal attitudes. This exposure often comes through social media\, such as YouTube videos\, tweets\, Facebook posts\, Instagram\, Snapchat\, and blogs. Despite this exposure\, many young people are unprepared to discuss race and racism in productive ways. Parents and educators are unsure how to guide these discussions. So how do we develop a “racial literacy” to have these conversations? Like learning to read and write\, racial literacy equips us to talk about race and can help us understand the historical and systemic contexts of race and racism in America. Join us for a FRANK Talk about race\, racism\, racial literacy and social media in today’s world.

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Religious Liberty in America - Patagonia
DESCRIPTION:Religious Liberty in America: How do we Set Limits on Free Exercise?\nSteve Kilar\, Arizona State University\, Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication \nThe First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution dictates that Congress “shall make no law … prohibiting the free exercise” of religion. In Arizona\, we’ve been confronted with this question in recent years because of public debates over women’s reproductive rights and proposals to protect people from discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity/expression.  But what happens when a religious belief compels the believer to commit acts of violence or deny a certain group of people business services? How do we decide what actions based on religious belief are prohibited under the law? Join us for a FRANK Talk about the law and religious practice.

SUMMARY:Artist + Talk: Persian Wom=n and the Unity of Humanity - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Eternal Flame by Mitra\nJoin us for an evening to explore Persian Wom=n and their role in uniting humanity through their art. Local artist Mitra will explore an array of wom=n artists: Simin Beh-bahani\, (1927-2014)\, an activist\, lyricist\, writer and contemporary poet nominated for the Noble prize; Forouq Farrok_Zad\,(1935-1957)\, a controversial\, feminist\, modernist poet and film director. She created the acclaimed documentary “The House is a Black” about a leper’s colony; and\, Parvin E-tesami (1907-1941)\, a classical/modern poet who was a pro-education mystic and exposed issues concerning wom=n injustices\, labor rights\, equitable education. Mitra Kamali\, a fine artist and petroleum engineer of Persian heritage\, shares her artistic vision of life through paintings that speak from a timeless world view. Mitra believes that creating art enhances self-realization and opens the mind to view the inner and outer world through the eyes of symbolism. Mitra is an active board member of Cultural Arts Coalition (CAC) since 2005. \nRSVP:  azhumanities.eventbrite.com \nThis program is made possible by the National Endowment for the Humanities and are part of the Humanities and the Legacy of Race and Ethnicity in the United States Grant.

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Racial Literacy and Social Media - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Is This Racist? Racial Literacy and Social Media\nDr. Kathy Nakagawa\, Arizona State University\, School of Social Transformation \nMany parents and educators avoid conversations about race and racism with their children and students\, yet young people are regularly exposed to images\, stories\, videos and statements that reflect racial societal attitudes. This exposure often comes through social media\, such as YouTube videos\, tweets\, Facebook posts and Tumblr blogs. Despite that exposure\, many young people are unprepared to discuss race and racism in productive ways\, and many parents and educators are unsure how to guide these discussions. So how do we develop a “racial literacy” to have these conversations? Like learning to read and write\, racial literacy equips us to talk about race and understand historical and systemic contexts of race and racism\, and it helps navigate the parallel dialogue occurring in media. Join us for a FRANK Talk about racism\, racial literacy and social media.

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Immigrants and the American Dream - Tucson
DESCRIPTION:Immigrants and the American Dream: We the People Today and Tomorrow\nDr. T.J. Davis\, Arizona State University\, School of Historical\, Philosophical and Religious Studies \nThe United States of America has long touted itself as a land of immigrants and has grown phenomenally from migration since its beginnings in an ever expanding global economy. Yet the source and substance of immigration have been topics of continuous debate. How do domestic conditions\, regional competitions\, geopolitics\, and foreign policy affect the discourse about who could and should become an American?  How do immigrants become Americans?  How do immigrants affect American vitality?   Join us for a Frank Talk to ponder the question\, what does it mean to be an American.

SUMMARY:Southern Arizona Cemeteries - Green Valley
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the ages we humans have had a need to mark the time and place where people make the final stop on their journey from this world to the next. Sometimes it is a simple cross on rock covered earth while others are elaborate tombstones which tell something of the lives of their residents. There is probably nothing so poignant as a tiny tombstone marking the death of a child whose duration on earth is measured from a few minutes to a few years. Don’t miss the chance to learn more about Arizona cemeteries. \nBesides teaching middle school Jane Eppinga is an author and member of Southern Arizona Authors\, National Federation of Press Women\, Society of Woman Geographers\, Southwestern Watercolor Guild\, Arizona Historical Society\, Pimeria Alta Historical Society\, Superstition Mountain Historical Society\, and Westerners International. She has a B.A. and B.S. from University of Arizona. Her latest books are Arizona Unsolved and Tucson Images of Modern of America. Finally\, Jane recently returned from China where she was invited to present a paper for the Pearl S. Buck Symposium.

SUMMARY:FRANK Talks:  Modern Policing or a Police State - Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:Body Cameras\, Tasers and Guns: Modern Policing or a Police State? \nMichael Scott\, ASU Center for Problem-Oriented Policing\, School of Criminology & Criminal Justice \nThe methods and tools used by police officers today are not the same as in the past. In some cases the police are using military tools and tactics for law enforcement. Are the police really protecting the public\, or are they over-policing civilians? Is there a “war on police” that is chilling local law enforcement? Are public demands for independent investigations of police violence\, demilitarized police forces\, and an end to “for-profit” policing justified?  Join us for a FRANK Talk with local police.
