SUMMARY:Tuesday Night Book Club: Toni Morrison\, Beloved
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 Toni Morrison’s Beloved. The magnificent Pulitzer Prize–winning work that brought the wrenching experience of slavery into the literature of our time\, enlarging our comprehension of America’s original sin.  Upon the original publication of Beloved in 1987\, John Leonard wrote in the Los Angeles Times: “I can’t imagine American literature without it.” Nearly two decades later\, The New York Times chose Beloved as the best American novel of the previous fifty years. \nSet in post–Civil War Ohio\, it is the story of Sethe\, an escaped slave who has lost a husband and buried a child; who has withstood savagery and not gone mad. Sethe\, who now lives in a small house on the edge of town with her daughter\, Denver\, her mother-in-law\, Baby Suggs\, and a disturbing\, mesmerizing apparition who calls herself Beloved. Sethe works at “beating back the past\,” but it makes itself heard and felt incessantly: in her memory; in Denver’s fear of the world outside the house; in the sadness that consumes Baby Suggs; in the arrival of Paul D\, a fellow former slave; and\, most powerfully\, in Beloved\, whose childhood belongs to the hideous logic of slavery and who has now come from the “place over there” to claim retribution for what she lost and for what was taken from her. \nWe are still waiting for more information about whether we will be able to hold this event in person. However\, we are also committed to continuing offering access virtually to Tuesday Night Book Club for all our new audiences! You can register now for Zoom access to the event. When you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:The Music of Stevie Wonder
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays – Jan. 27\, Feb. 3\, and Feb. 10 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nFew musicians have shaped contemporary music as extensively as Stevie Wonder\, a singer\, songwriter\, producer\, and musician who bridges so many genres he has virtually created his own.

In addition\, the class explores the chief influences on his distinctive style such as Ray Charles\, Marvin Gaye\, and Tonto’s Exploding Head Band. Finally\, Wonder’s vast impact on music will be studied through his influence on other artists. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Tuesday Night Book Club: Bruce Springsteen\, Born to Run
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 Bruce Springsteen\, Born to Run. \nIn 2009\, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band performed at the Super Bowl’s halftime show. The experience was so exhilarating that Bruce decided to write about it. That’s how this extraordinary autobiography began. Over the past seven years\, Bruce Springsteen has privately devoted himself to writing the story of his life\, bringing to these pages the same honesty\, humour and originality found in his songs.\n\nBorn to Run will be revelatory for anyone who has ever enjoyed Bruce Springsteen\, but this book is much more than a legendary rock star’s memoir. This is a book for workers and dreamers\, parents and children\, lovers and loners\, artists\, freaks or anyone who has ever wanted to be baptized in the holy river of rock and roll. Rarely has a performer told his own story with such force and sweep. Like many of his songs (‘Thunder Road’\, ‘Badlands’\, ‘Darkness on the Edge of Town’\, ‘The River’\, ‘Born in the U.S.A.’\, ‘The Rising’\, and ‘The Ghost of Tom Joad’\, to name just a few)\, Bruce Springsteen’s autobiography is written with the lyricism of a singular songwriter and the wisdom of a man who has thought deeply about his experiences. \nWe are still waiting for more information about whether we will be able to hold this event in person. However\, we are also committed to continuing offering access virtually to Tuesday Night Book Club for all our new audiences! You can register now for Zoom access to the event. When you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation. 
 \nPlease stay tuned for more details about an in-person location for this event when more information becomes available.

SUMMARY:Atlantics Virtual Panel Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a World Cinema Series zoom discussion illuminating the theme “Living on the Edge: Displacement\, Identity\, and Resilience” by analyzing the message and impact of the 2019 film\, Atlantics. \nAtlantics (French: Atlantique) is a internationally co-produced supernatural romantic drama film directed by Mati Diop\, in her feature directorial debut. It was selected to compete for the Palme d’Or at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival.

Working mostly with unknown actors\, Diop focused in the film on issues such as the refugee crisis\, remorse\, loss\, grief\, class struggle\, and taking responsibility (or not) of one’s actions. The Atlantic Ocean is used in many ways throughout the film\, including as a symbol and engine for change\, growth\, life\, and death. \nThe discussion of the film will be led by  Dr. Julius Adekunle\, Professor in the department of History and Anthropology and Dr. Lisa Vetere\, Associate Professor in the department of English. \nThe film is available for streaming on Netflix. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation. \nFree and open to the public\, but registration is required.
