SUMMARY:Storming Caesars Palace: PBS Documentary Screening + Q&A with Author Annelise Orleck
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Junction Arts & Media for a screening of newly premiered PBS documentary Storming Caesars Palace\, followed by a Q&A with local author and historian\, Annelise Orleck\, whose book inspired the film. \nAnnelise Orleck’s Storming Caesars Palace tells the story of the revolutionary Black women welfare organizers of Las Vegas who spearheaded an evergreen\, radical revisioning of American economic justice in the 1970s\, trailblazing a movement that proved that poor mothers are the real experts on poverty\, providing job training\, libraries\, medical access\, daycare centers and housing to the poor.  Orleck introduces Ruby Duncan\, a sharecropper turned White House advisor who led the charge on the long war on poverty waged against the poor Black mothers of Las Vegas. According to Ruby\, “Poor women must dream their highest dreams and never stop\,” and she\, with the help of Mary Wesley and Alversa Beals\, did exactly that. \nThis timely reissue tells the little-known story of a pioneering group of Black mothers who built one of this country’s most successful antipoverty programs. \nFree and open to the public. Please RSVP for this event below\, as we have limited capacity.

SUMMARY:Redlining Our Souls by media artist Laura Di Piazza
DESCRIPTION:Artist Laura Di Piazza (b. NYC) will exhibit work from her Redlining Our Souls (ROS) series\, opening First Friday March 3 with the artist from 5-7pm and running through the month as the centerpiece of JAM’s March programming theme “Home in the World\,” an examination of housing justice locally and globally.  ROS includes redlining maps and description language issued by the defunct government-sponsored Home Owners’ Loan Corporation (HOLC) highlighting blatant and coded racist housing segregation practices. The racist attitudes and language found in HOLC appraisal sheets and Residential Security Maps created by the HOLC gave federal support to real-estate practices that helped segregate American housing throughout the 20th century. [1] \nThe exhibition also includes a slide projection highlighting racial covenants in property deeds that included restrictive clauses which prevent white homeowners from re-selling or renting to Black Americans. The altered segregation redlining maps and descriptions are paired with the artist’s abstracted integrative paintings. \nJAM will be giving away 6 free copies of Richard Rothstein’s The Color of Law. \n[1] Freund\, David M.

SUMMARY:Still No Word from You: An Evening of Readings from Authors Peter Orner\, Sara Lippmann\, Ricardo Siri and Vievee Francis
DESCRIPTION:An evening of author readings from new works presented by JAM and the Norwich Bookstore\n\nBrooklyn-based short story writer Sara Lippmann reads from her first novel\, Lech (published fall 2022). Illustrator and cartoonist Ricardo Siri reads excerpts from his graphic novels. Poet and Professor of Creative Writing Vievee Francis reads selections from her work.  And Norwich-based author Peter Orner read selections from his newly released non-fiction collection\, Still No Word From You.  Free & open to the public\, RSVP required.\n\n\nBooks for sale at JAM thanks to the Norwich Bookstore with book signing to follow.\n\n“Orner is a highly lauded author whose writing\, in both fiction and nonfiction\, is an act of wizardry. In each of these micro-essays\, he reduces the meat of his own life down to the bone\, then stirs in fatty excerpts from hundreds of stories\, novels and poems by writers ranging from Woolf to Rhys\, Babel to Kafka. The resulting brew sometimes scalds\, sometimes soothes\, but always proves that literature can be a kind of sustenance.” \n– New York Times Book Review \n\n\nA San Francisco Chronicle Favorite Book of 2022:\n“This book is never leaving my possession.”\n– Kathryn Ma\, The San Francisco Chronicle\n\n“Still No Word from You Redefines the Experience of Reading…Orner shape shifts and time travels.”\n– Los Angeles times\n\n“Peter Orner’s work clings close to life\, to the unadorned\, dead and haunting Actual.”\n– Marilynne Robinson\n\n\n\nIf RSVP’s reach capacity\, please join us virtually!
