SUMMARY:FRANK Talks: Challenges to Democracy from the Extremes - Patagonia
DESCRIPTION:Challenges to Democracy from the Extremes\nDr. Albrecht  Classen\, University of Arizona\, Department of German Studies and Director of Undergraduate Studies \nThe recent death of a demonstrator in Charlottesville\, Virginia\, and the ongoing tension between political parties\, highlights the danger of ideological extremism in the U.S. What is Neo-National-Socialism? How do we address ideological extremes within the framework of our Constitution and the First Amendment? Cultural clashes spurred by divergent views and values are not new to our national history. What have we learned from the past? How can we apply these lessons? Who is “the far right?”  What is Neo- Nazi ideology? How does a democratic nation balance free speech against national security?  Join us for a FRANK Talk on the rise of extremist ideology and its relationship to the core of our democratic principles.

SUMMARY:Rising from Invisibility:  Indigenous Arizona Women - Patagonia
DESCRIPTION:In many Southwestern matrifocal cultures\, Indigenous women’s lives are modeled after female heroes and sacred women who exemplify and express courage and kinship values. Among some tribal cultures\, rites of passage celebrate female creativity and the transformative nature of women\, hence there was not a need for the concept of feminism. Nevertheless\, Indigenous women’s lives remain invisible and stereotyped by Hollywood. This talk presents how Indigenous women have contributed in significant ways\, not only to their tribal nations\, but also to many aspects of contemporary American life. \nLaura Tohe is Diné/Navajo.  She is Sleepy Rock clan born for the Bitter Water clan. A librettist and an award-winning poet\, she has written 3 books of poetry\, edited a book of Native American Women writing\, and the oral history book\, Code Talker Stories. Her commissioned libretto\, Enemy Slayer\, A Navajo Oratorio made its world premiere in 2008 and was performed by The Phoenix Symphony.  She is Professor with Distinction in Indigenous Literature at Arizona State University and is the Poet Laureate of the Navajo Nation for 2015-2019.
