SUMMARY:Fighting Climate Change at Home: Homegrown National Park
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, Jan. 23\, 2024\, at 7 p.m. in Pollak Theater\, best selling author Doug Tallamy\, Ph.D.\, professor of Entomology at University of Delaware and author of Nature’s Best Hope and the Nature of Oaks will present on what you can do in your own yard or balcony to fight climate change\, create climate resiliency\, and create beauty in your own backyard. Fighting Climate Change at Home: Homegrown National Park will present listeners with a road map on how to fight climate change and create a more ecologically resilient landscape. \nToday\, there are more than 44 million acres of turf grass in the U.S.\, an area larger than New England. Turf grass is the worst plant choice for fighting climate change because it is the worst option for sequestering carbon. Our parks\, preserves\, and remaining wildlands—no matter how grand in scale—are too small to sequester the amount of carbon needed to impact climate change. Moreover\, they are also too small and separated from one another to sustain the native trees\, plants\, insects\, and animals on which our ecosystems depend. These systems must be resilient if we are to have climate resiliency. We now must store carbon outside of parks and preserves\, largely on private property\, where we live\, work\, shop\, and farm. Thus the concept for Homegrown National Park: a national challenge to create diverse ecosystems in our yards\, communities\, and surrounding lands by reducing lawn\, planting natives\, and removing invasive plants\, and\, in so doing\, fight the biodiversity crisis and climate change simultaneously. \nThe talk will be followed by Q&A and a book signing. The public is encouraged to bring their own copies of Tallamy books for signature. This will be the first presentation of the 2024 Climate Crisis Teach-in.

SUMMARY:6th Annual MLK Distinguished Lecture in Social Justice featuring Anneliese Singh\, Ph.D.\, LPC
DESCRIPTION:Racial Healing: Practical Activities to Help You Explore Racial Privilege\, Confront Systemic Racism\, and Engage in Collective Healing \nIn this session\, Anneliese Singh describes core racial healing strategies that people can practice in the aim of collective racial justice and liberation.

Her scholarship and community organizing explores the resilience\, trauma\, and identity development experiences of queer and trans people\, with a focus on young people and BIPOC people. Anneliese is the author of “The Racial Healing Handbook: Practical Activities to Help You Challenge Privilege\, Confront Systemic Racism\, and Engage in Collective Healing” and “The Queer and Trans Resilience Workbook.” Anneliese is co-founder of the Georgia Safe Schools Coalition and the Trans Resilience Project.
