SUMMARY:Budrus
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a World Cinema Series film screening/discussion illuminating the theme “Wartime Lives: Enduring and Transcending Violence and Occupation” by analyzing the message and impact of the film Budrus (Israeli/Palestinian/American\, 2009). \nBudrus is an award-winning feature documentary film about Palestinian community organizer\, Ayed Morrar\, who unites Palestinian political factions and invites Israeli supporters to join an unarmed movement to save his village of Budrus from destruction by Israel’s Separation Barrier. Success eludes them until his 15-year-old daughter\, Iltezam\, launches a women’s contingent that quickly moves to the front lines. Struggling side by side\, father and daughter unleash an inspiring\, yet little-known\, movement in the Occupied Palestinian Territories that is still gaining ground today. \nIn an action-filled documentary chronicling this movement from its infancy\, Budrus shines a light on people who choose nonviolent strategies to confront a threat. The movie is directed by award-winning filmmaker Julia Bacha (co-writer and editor of Control Room and co-director Encounter Point)\, and produced by Bacha\, Palestinian journalist Rula Salameh\, and filmmaker and human rights advocate Ronit Avni (formerly of WITNESS\, Director of Encounter Point). \nThe discussion of the film will be led by Claude Taylor\, Director For Academic Transition And Inclusion and Saliba Sarsar\, Professor in the department of Political Science and Sociology.

SUMMARY:The Hours
DESCRIPTION:The world-premiere staging of Kevin Puts’s The Hours\, adapted from Michael Cunningham’s acclaimed novel\, which also served as the inspiration for the Oscar-winning film\, arrives in cinemas this December. In her highly anticipated return to the Met\, soprano Renée Fleming joins soprano Kelli O’Hara and mezzo-soprano Joyce DiDonato to portray three women from different eras who grapple with their inner demons and their roles in society. Phelim McDermott\, who recently created the Met’s acclaimed production of Philip Glass’s Akhnaten\, directs this compelling drama\, and Yannick Nézet-Séguin takes the podium to conduct Puts’s powerful score. \n“The Hours contains themes of suicide. If you or someone you know is considering self-harm or suicide\, help is available from the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988 or visiting 988lifeline.org.”

SUMMARY:My Mother's Italian\, My Father's Jewish & I'm Home For The Holidays!
DESCRIPTION:After last season’s sell-out\, it’s another laugh-filled evening of family chaos from the award-winning writer and comedian Steve Solomon.

SUMMARY:Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is NATIONAL BESTSELLER Emily St. John Mandel’s Station Eleven. \n\n\nAn audacious\, darkly glittering novel set in the eerie days of civilization’s collapse—the spellbinding story of a Hollywood star\, his would-be savior\, and a nomadic group of actors roaming the scattered outposts of the Great Lakes region\, risking everything for art and humanity. Now an original series on HBO Max. \nKirsten Raymonde will never forget the night Arthur Leander\, the famous Hollywood actor\, had a heart attack on stage during a production of King Lear. That was the night when a devastating flu pandemic arrived in the city\, and within weeks\, civilization as we know it came to an end. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:Viet Thanh Nguyen's The Sympathizer
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack\, each month we’ll explore a different novel. All you have to do is Zoom in and join the discussion! \nThis month’s novel is Viet Thanh Nguyen\, The Sympathizer. \nA profound\, startling\, and beautifully crafted debut novel\, The Sympathizer is the story of a man of two minds\, someone whose political beliefs clash with his individual loyalties. \nThe Sympathizer is the story of this captain: a man brought up by an absent French father and a poor Vietnamese mother\, a man who went to university in America\, but returned to Vietnam to fight for the Communist cause. A gripping spy novel\, an astute exploration of extreme politics\, and a moving love story\, The Sympathizer explores a life between two worlds and examines the legacy of the Vietnam War in literature\, film\, and the wars we fight today. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:5th Annual MLK Distinguished Lecture in Social Justice featuring Anthony Abraham Jack\, Ph.D.
DESCRIPTION:Elite colleges are accepting diverse and disadvantaged students more than ever before—but to Anthony Jack\, access does not equal acceptance. An assistant professor at Harvard and author of The Privileged Poor\, Jack—once a low-income\, first-generation college student himself—studies how poor students are often failed by the top schools that admit them. In talks\, he details how class divides on campus create barriers to academic success—and shares what schools can do to truly level the playing field.  \nThis program is presented annually by the President’s Advisory Council for Diversity and Inclusion and will be moderated by Professor Claude Taylor.
