SUMMARY:Hyenas in Petticoats: How Women Struggled Against Every Dirty Trick in the Book to Win The Vote! with Jana Bommersbach
DESCRIPTION:As we celebrate the 100th birthday of the 19th Amendment in 2020\, it’s time to look back at the enormous effort it took for women to be granted full citizenship and the vote. History has downplayed suffrage\, as if it were just a footnote in American history\, when in fact\, it was the nation’s largest civil rights movement. Western women got the vote long before their Eastern sisters\, but don’t dare tell an Arizona suffragette that she had it easy. Arizona had its own dirty tricks. Jana exposes it all—the heroines\, the heroes and the haters. REGISTER HERE. \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nJana Bommersbach is one of Arizona’s most honored and respected journalists. She has won accolades in every facet of her career— investigative reporter\, magazine columnist\, television commentator and author of nationally acclaimed books. She currently writes for True West magazine\, digging up the true stories behind the popular myths\, with an emphasis on Arizona’s real history and women of the Old West. Her insight\, knowledge and wit produce exuberant\, riveting speeches that always garner rave reviews.

SUMMARY:Re-Thinking Masculinity with Rowdy Duncan
DESCRIPTION:Masculinity is generally defined as “the qualities — habits and traits that society considers to be appropriate for a man.” So then what’s the buzz about “toxic” masculinity? Are all parts of masculinity bad? Are there good parts of masculinity? What are some notions of masculinity that have changed in the past – how did they change – why did they change? Big boys don’t cry. Real men don’t eat quiche. Boys will be boys. Don’t be a sissy. Man-up. How might we rethink the role of masculinity in a changing world? Participants will explore these questions in a unique\, interactive program that will improve their communication skills\, facilitate learning\, and help them navigate gender differences at work and at home.

SUMMARY:Our Right To Assemble: The History of Protest and Civil Disobedience in the U.S. with Matthew Whitaker
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. Whitaker has spoken throughout the U.S. and abroad\, and has been featured on CNN\, NPR\, PBS\, WVON\, and KEMET. His books include Hurricane Katrina: America’s Unnatural Disaster\, Race Work: The Rise of Civil Rights in the Urban West\, and his forthcoming memoir\, The Undisputed Truth: A Revolutionary Journey to Black Manhood. \n

SUMMARY:All My Relations: Indigenous Thinking in Seven Generations with Rowdy Duncan
DESCRIPTION:Who do you consider to be people that you are related to? Who is and is not part of your community? Is there a way to widen our perspective of who is part of our community and invested in our success. This workshop will introduce the idea of thinking in seven generations and examine the concept used in indigenous circles “All my relations”. What if we could learn to see in a more timeless frame? How we view the world\, and the contributions of others\, can be shaped by who we are “connected” to\, and who we are “disconnected” from. The choices we make about how we choose to live\, and what matters to us\, have much to do with the world we live in\, and the people who surround us\, at home\, at work\, and at play. Who is your “tribe?” Can you trace your family roots back to the beginning? Do we have any obligation to those who came before us\, or who come after us? What is our responsibility for making a better world? Participants will explore these questions in a unique\, interactive program that will improve their communication skills\, facilitate learning\, and help them navigate cultural differences at work and at home. \n  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER\nRowdy has worked in the field of diversity and inclusion for over a decade.

SUMMARY:Not Racist or Anti-Racist? Talking About Race In America with Rowdy Duncan
DESCRIPTION:What is the difference between race and ethnicity? What does it mean to be anti-racist versus not racist? Understanding the history of race in America\, and its impact on all of us is important. Race is not just a complex subject of study\, but a lived experience that is unique to everyone.

Is it possible to be “not-racist” in our society? What does it mean to be anti-racist? How can we be proactive in our anti-racist efforts? Participants will explore these questions in a unique\, interactive program that will improve their communication skills\, facilitate learning\, and help them navigate cultural differences at work and at home.
