SUMMARY:FYI: White Supremacy\, Racism\, and Antisemitism—the intersectionality of hate
DESCRIPTION:As white nationalists took to the streets of Charlottesville to protest the removal of confederate monuments\, they spewed racist\, anti-immigrant\, anti-Muslim\, anti-LGBTQ and\, in general\, anti-minority rhetoric. They also shouted Nazi-era antisemitic slogans\, such as “Jews will not replace us” and “Blood and soil.” What forms the framework of this “equal opportunity hate?” And what are the most effective strategies that diverse communities can use to counter this threat? \nThe Cincinnati Regional Coalition Against Hate will host a dialogue with Eric Ward\, longtime civil rights strategist and Director of the Western States Center\, an organization at the forefront of building a progressive movement and just society since 1987. Ward is a national expert on the relationship between hate violence and preserving democratic institutions\, governance\, and inclusive societies\, and he has extensively studied\, researched and written about the modern white nationalist movement. \nWard will tell the story of his civil rights work when the white nationalist movement was engaged in violent paramilitary activity that sought to undermine democratic governance in the Pacific Northwest. He’ll share his learnings about how antisemitism forms the theoretical core of white nationalism\, and how understanding the antisemitism at the root of this movement is key to opposing it. \nJoin us for this important conversation\, “White Supremacy\, Racism\, and Antisemitism—the intersectionality of hate\,” on June 4 at 6:30 p.m. at the Freedom Center. Please RSVP here\, and consider sharing our Facebook event with those in your networks who may be interested in attending.

SUMMARY:April NKU Think Tank with Matthew Desmond
DESCRIPTION:In his book Evicted\, Matthew Desmond examines how disruptive the loss of housing is to a family’s stability. Jobs are put at risk\, as parents scramble to find housing after an eviction. Children may miss school days or be forced to relocate to a new school\, perhaps even to a different city.  Securing money for rent becomes a priority\, straining household finances needed for food and medicine. \nDr. Desmond’s vantage point is national. Our Think Tank will examine the issues and themes of Evicted locally. We hope attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of housing insecurity in northern Kentucky and Cincinnati\, how agencies and public officials are trying to address it\, and some idea of how each of us can contribute to solutions that work. \nRegistration: https://nku.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b4nEjVgMhtandwF \nMore info: https://inside.nku.edu/coehs/beyond/thinktank/apr2018.html
