SUMMARY:Outdoor Film Screening: Can You Dig This?
DESCRIPTION:When one thinks of South Los Angeles\, what comes to mind is gangs\, drugs\, liquor stores\, abandoned buildings and vacant lots. The last thing that you would expect to find is a beautiful garden sprouting up through the concrete\, coloring the urban landscape. As part of an urban gardening movement taking root in South LA\, people are planting to transform their neighborhoods and are changing their own lives in the process. Calling for people to put down their guns and pick up their shovels\, these “gangster gardeners” are creating an oasis in the middle of one of the most notoriously dangerous places in America. \nCan You Dig This follows the inspirational journeys of four unlikely gardeners\, discovering what happens when they put their hands in the soil. This is not a story of science and economics. This is a story of the human spirit\, inspiring people everywhere to pick up their shovels and “plant some shit.”

SUMMARY:Celebrate Juneteenth at the North Carolina Museum of History
DESCRIPTION:FREE in-person\, drop-in program \nJuneteenth is the oldest nationally celebrated commemoration of the ending of slavery in the United States. From its Galveston\, Texas\, origin in 1865\, the observance of African American Emancipation Day has spread across the United States and beyond. \nToday\, Juneteenth commemorates African American freedom and emphasizes education and achievement. It is a day\, a week\, and\, in some areas\, a month marked with celebrations\, presentations\, picnics\, and family gatherings. Juneteenth is a time for reflection and rejoicing\, and for looking to the future. \nDrop-in at the NC Museum of History for an afternoon of activities inspired by the national holiday. Meet members of the Battery B Second Regiment\, US Colored Light Artillery Civil War reenactors\, as they reveal the legacy of the courageous soldiers in the struggle for freedom and citizenship during the American Civil War. Visit museum exhibits\, and watch Neal Thomas make split-oak baskets\, like those used by families at early Juneteenth celebrations. \nWe will also be screening a new documentary film from PBSNC titled George Henry White: Searching for Freedom. \nThe 30-minute documentary film will be screened in Daniels Auditorium at the North Carolina Museum of History in Raleigh from 7 to 9 p.m. Admission is free. \nThe historical biographical film chronicles the career of African American US congressman George H. White\, whose last term in Congress ended in 1901 after the disenfranchisement of African Americans across North Carolina. \nWhite’s final words to Congress predicted that African Americans would one day return to its halls despite the onset of the Jim Crow era. President Barack Obama recognized White’s accomplishments in a 2009 speech that brought the congressman’s legacy back into the spotlight. White’s rise to political leadership and his remarkable career are well known to historians\, but his story has been largely left out of the mainstream historical narrative. \nNorth Carolina historians and authors Crystal R. Sanders\, Earl Ijames\, David S. Cecelski\, and Benjamin R. Justensen appear in the film. \nHistorian Earl Ijames and the film’s director\, Mike O’Connell\, will introduce the film and participate in a Q&A session after the screening. All are welcome to this timely event presented by the NC Museum of History in honor of Juneteenth.

SUMMARY:Women in Jazz: On and Off the Stage
DESCRIPTION:The multifaceted field of jazz provides a wide range of opportunities for creative expression. Often overlooked\, the contributions of women have and continue to have a dynamic impact on jazz. As jazz performers\, educators\, artists\, producers\, and directors\, women have struggled for equal recognition. \nThey get their due in a lecture-concert presentation featuring Charlie Young\, Smithsonian Jazz Masterworks artistic director and professor of jazz studies at Howard University. Young highlights the contributions of some of the leading women in jazz as the SJMO performs music they’ve made famous: pianist\, composer\, and writer Marian McPartland (“Ambiance”); pianist\, composer\, and band leader Toshiko Akiyoshi (“March of the Tadpoles)”; and saxophonist\, arranger\, and educator (and SJMO member) Leigh Pilzer (“East Coast Andy”).
