SUMMARY:Men of Change: Power. Triumph. Truth. (February 11\, 2022 - September 11\, 2022)
DESCRIPTION:  \nNOW EXTENDED THROUGH SEPTEMBER 11th!\nMen of Change: Power. Triumph. Truth. profiles the revolutionary men—including Muhammad Ali\, James Baldwin\, Ta-Nehisi Coates\, W.E.B Du Bois\, and Kendrick Lamar—whose journeys have altered the history and culture of the country. The achievements of the men are woven within the legacy and traditions of the African American journey—achievements of excellence in spite of society’s barriers.  \nThrough literary and historic quotes\, poetry\, original works of art\, dramatic photographs\, and a dynamic space that encourages self-reflection\, this innovative exhibition weaves together the historical and the contemporary to illuminate the importance of these men within the context of rich community traditions. It invites visitors to consider predominant narratives and engage in the authentic stories of history\, politics\, art\, culture\, and activism. Twenty-four contemporary artists were invited to reflect and celebrate the significance of these ground-breaking individuals through their own creative vision. These works of art serve as counterpoint to the sumptuously backlit photographs and inspiring quotes\, and together honor the truth of the African American experience in history and today. \nWhile these men made their mark in a variety of disciplines—politics\, sports\, science\, entertainment\, business\, religion\, and more—all understood the value of asserting their own agency by owning their own stories. \nMen of Change was developed by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service and made possible through the generous support of the Ford Motor Company Fund. \n\n\nPhoto credit: Kendrick Lamar\, 2018. Andrew Lih.

SUMMARY:Reading The Culture September Author Talk - Shannen Dee Williams\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Reading The Culture September Author Talk with Shannen Dee Williams\, Ph.D.\nThursday\, September 1\, 2022 | 6 pm – 7:30 pm ET\nVirtual\nFree Admission. Registration required. Space is limited.\n \nAs the Lewis Museum celebrates all things related to reading this fall\, we’re excited to host a stellar collection of authors as they provide insight on books that help us learn about\, grapple with\, and confront the complexities of the issues we face in the world around us. Our September author\, Shannen Dee Williams\, Ph.D.\, joins us to discuss her book\, Subversive Habits: Black Catholic Nuns in the Long African American Freedom Struggle. \nDrawing on oral histories and previously sealed Church records\, Subversive Habits provides the first full history of Black Catholic nuns in the United States\, hailing them as the forgotten prophets of Catholicism and democracy. Williams shows how Black sisters were pioneering religious leaders\, educators\, healthcare professionals\, desegregation foot soldiers\, Black Power activists\, and womanist theologians. In the process\, Williams calls attention to Catholic women’s religious life as a stronghold of white supremacy and racial segregation—and thus an important battleground in the long African American freedom struggle. \nRegister Here \nZoom Webinar
