SUMMARY:In Their Shoes: Author Talk with Joanna Dreby
DESCRIPTION:IN THEIR SHOES – AUTHOR TALK WITH JOANNA DREBY: Join students\, faculty\, and staff for a special program in partnership with The WCSU Libraries\, WCSU UndocuAlly\, Ben & Jerry’s\, CT Students for a Dream\, and ALCU Connecticut! \nIn “Surviving the ICE Age\,” sociologist Joanna Dreby draws on interviews with young adults with foreign-born parents to better understand what it was like to grow up during a time of heightened U.S. migratory control.

Young adults developed strategies to persevere\, and children who grew up in communities and families that openly talked about migration felt empowered and fared much better\, especially when they had access to resources\, such as adequate food and shelter\, mental health services\, and community support.” \nRead more about Joanna Dreby at https://libguides.wcsu.edu/in_their_shoes/joanna_dreby and make sure to join us! \nWhen: Monday\, November 24 | 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.\nWhere: Ruth A Haas Library\, Midtown campus

SUMMARY:Poly-Victimization: Connecting the Dots with Intimate Partner Violence Webinar
DESCRIPTION:POLY-VICTIMIZATION – CONNECTING THE DOTS WITH INTIMATE PARTNER VIOLENCE WEBINAR: The Office of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion is promoting this virtual event from the Justice Clearinghouse for Domestic Violence Awareness Month 2025. \nThose who experience crime are not a monolith\, and many victims of crime can experience multiple types of victimization. A one-size-fits-all approach leaves many victims\, especially those experiencing intimate-partner violence\, without the services and support they need. \nService providers need to understand poly-victimization and how it impacts survivors’ experiences with the programs at all levels and work to find the right resources and support mechanisms to serve victims best. \nLearning Outcomes:\n-Understand how poly-victimization plays a role in the way that victims experience the justice system.\n-Identify potential gaps in services for those who experience poly-victimization.\n-Identify three trauma-informed strategies service providers can use to support victims. \nThis virtual event is from 1 to 2:30 p.m. Register to attend at https://www.justiceclearinghouse.com/webinar/poly-victimization-connecting-the-dots-with-intimate-partner-violence/?source=regpage

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Kevin Nguyen on "My Documents"
DESCRIPTION:AUTHOR TALK – KEVIN NGUYEN ON “MY DOCUMENTS”: The Office of Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion is promoting this event in honor of AAPI Heritage Month (Asian American Pacific Heritage Month). \nCelebrate AAPI month with author Kevin Nguyen and his new book\, “Mỹ Documents.” Nguyen will be in conversation with educator and AAPI activist Jennifer Heikkila Diaz. \nThis event is presented in partnership with AAPI Westport. \nAs an author\, journalist\, and editor at The Verge\, Kevin Nguyen’s work often explores what happens at the intersection of technology\, humanity\, and culture. His incisive and darkly satirical new novel\, “Mỹ Documents\,” couldn’t be timelier — or more engrossing. \nA moving speculative novel about a Vietnamese American family confronting ambition and assimilation during exceptionally troubled times\, “Mỹ Documents” gives a version of reality only a few degrees away from our own. Nguyen\, whose work grew from extensive research on the incarceration of Japanese citizens in the U.S. during the 1940s\, imagines what a mass detention program might look like in the age of the internet. \nKevin Nguyen is features editor of The Verge\, and was previously a senior editor at GQ. He has edited stories that have been finalists for the National Magazine Award and the Pulitzer Prize. His debut novel\, “New Waves” (2020\, One World)\, was one of NPR’s Best Books of the Year in 2020\, and was widely celebrated for its mordant humor\, fierce intelligence\, and stylish prose. Author Bryan Washington called it “a delight and a gamble and a treasure and a miracle.” \nJennifer (JHD/Jenny) Heikkila Díaz (they/she) is a professional learning coordinator for the Connecticut Council for the Social Studies and a facilitator of statewide teacher communities as a member of the Anti-Racist Teaching and Learning Collective Steering Committee and as a UConn AAASI Activist in Residence. For nearly 25 years\, JHD has worked as a K-12 public school teacher\, school administrator\, and educator coach in Baltimore\, South Central Los Angeles\, Long Beach\, Echo Park\, Queens\, and across Connecticut. They are a New Havener and co-chair of the Asian Pacific American Coalition of CT (APAC). Their lifelong commitment is to backing youth\, who envision an even more joyful and just world than they do. \nAt 7 p.m. at the Westport Library\, 20 Jesup Road\, Westport\, CT.

SUMMARY:"A JOURNEY" Musical One-Woman Show by Kimberly Wilson
DESCRIPTION:“A JOURNEY” MUSICAL ONE-WOMAN SHOW BY KIMBERLY WILSON: “A JOURNEY” Musical One-Woman Show brings to life seven historical women\, seven pivotal generations\, who present to you their stories through song\, movement\, and dialogue and how ultimately their faith\, hope and calling help shape the America we know today. \nJoyful celebrations and painful reflections are rendered artistically to tell a story of persistence and courage and how womanhood\, not always intricately woven into the tapestry of American history\, is the thread that holds together the fabric of American life. Included in this journey are reflections from an African Queen\, Harriet Tubman\, Sojourner Truth\, Rosa Parks\, and more. \nAfter the performance\, we invite the audience to remain for a talk-back which extends the wealth of this theatrical experience. People are welcome opportunities to share their feedback and share their stories\, too. \nAs we celebrate these historical women’s stories and their journeys\, let us also celebrate our own journeys. We must tell our stories and be avid\, respectful listeners to the stories of others.
