History of Chicago and The Great Migration: Carol Adams & Timuel Black - Shimer College Ideas Series
▶️ The documentary and oral history of Chicago & The Great Migration, a discussion between Dr. Carol Adams & Historian Timuel Black; Presented by The Illinois Institute of Technology in collaboration with Shimer College.
---
This year Shimer College joins the City of Chicago in celebrating the centennial of the Great Migration during black history month and beyond. In anticipation for 2016, we are kicking off the remembrance and festivity with this video of two celebrated American contemporaries, Dr. Carol Adams and historian Timuel Black. In this talk, Adams and Carol draw on both oral narrative and documentary accounts of this watershed moment in American History, to paint a vibrant picture of pre & post civil rights movement Chicago—the struggles it faced and continues to face. Touching on the eclipse of slavery through the injustice insidious Jim Crow, the speakers relate how their own legacies of flight from the South were intimately born of the American racial story. As the battle against everyday racism as well as institutionalized racist culture & law persists into this century, this video talk assists in broadening public discourse past Martin Luther King and Malcom X toward a richer historical context in which these figures had and continue to have meaning for national dialogue.
This video talk is brought to you by Shimer College's new youtube program Bright Ideas: a Thought Series from Chicago. Check out and subscribe to our channel for free lectures, talks, symposia, artistic performances, and more.

--About Shimer--
For those of you who are just discovering Shimer for the first time, Shimer is an alternative liberal arts College where students study a comprehensive “Great Books” program. This is just to say that our students take all seminar style classes instead of lectures, reading and discussing transformative books of the various fields of the liberal arts--math, science, philosophy, art, literature, psychology, sociology, anthropology and political science. We offer traditional four-year degrees, early entrance, and transfer paths. Oh, and of course, the financial aid and scholarships you need to make such a real education possible. Our biggest scholarship opportunities are the Dangerous Optimist Scholarship for transfer students transferring in the spring, and the Montaigne Scholarship for new students beginning in the fall. These scholarships, like our education, are designed to take you seriously—to meet you halfway and acknowledge the real seriousness of purpose and (in all honesty) the risk you take in applying.

-- - --About the Great Migration-- - --
The Great Migration was the movement of 6 million African Americans out of the rural Southern United States to the urban Northeast, Midwest, and West that occurred between 1910 and 1970. Some historians differentiate between the first Great Migration (1910–1930), numbering about 1.6 million migrants who left mostly rural areas to migrate to northern industrial cities; and, after a lull during the Great Depression, a Second Great Migration (1940–1970), in which 5 million or more people moved from the South, including many to California and other western states. Between 1910 and 1970, blacks moved from 14 states of the South, especially Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, to the other three cultural (and census-designated) regions of the United States. According to US census figures, Georgia was the only Deep South state which suffered net declines in its African American population for three consecutive decades from 1920–1950. More townspeople with urban skills moved during the second migration...
A reverse migration has gathered strength since 1965...As early as 1975 to 1980, seven southern states were net black migration gainers. African-American populations have continued to drop throughout much of the Northeast, particularly with black emigration out of the state of New York, as well as out of Northern New Jersey as they rise in the Southern United States.

EPA and Army Propose New Waters of the United States Definition
NOTE: For captions for the first few minutes of the event please click the CC button to turn them on. Open captions begin at 2:24.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of the Army are proposing a clear, understandable, and implementable definition of “waters of the United States” that clarifies federal authority under the Clean Water Act. Unlike the Obama administration's 2015 definition of “waters of the United States,” the proposal contains a straightforward definition that would result in significant cost savings, protect the nation’s navigable waters, help sustain economic growth, and reduce barriers to business development.

There's A Poop Crisis At The Border (HBO)
I'm starting to smell it Baron Partlow yelled into the estuary that sits between Tijuana and Imperial Beach, a small coastal town in southern California. He was wearing a black shirt with the words Stop the Poop in large white letters, high top boots, and plastic gloves, and carrying a respirator.
After a few seconds, he turned to the woman following him around with iPhone and asked if she was smelling it too. She was wearing Nikes.
Partlow, who documents the wastewater that flows from Mexico the United States and then posts the videos to the Stop the Poop page on Facebook, is on the fringe of a very real and serious movement. While the federal government obsesses about the so-called emergency at the border, Imperial Beach are trying to get people to care about a crisis that has nothing to do with migrants.
Every year, the Tijuana River carries millions of gallons of water over the border, bringing trash, chemicals, and poop along for the ride. The problem has gotten so bad that the beaches just north of Mexico are rarely ever open.
VICE News traveled to Imperial Beach, where the town meets regularly to talk about their stinky problem, to see how bad it could possibly be.

8th Grade U.S. HISTORY STAAR REVIEW
For educational purposes.
I was trying really hard to keep it under 45 minutes. If it's too fast you can watch it at .75.
At .5 it sounds like an episode of drunk history.
Please note the following:
* Fundamental Orders of Connecticut was established in 1639 not 1863
* Fort Sumter was 1861 not 1865
If you see any other mistakes please let me know. Thanks and good luck on the test!

About Penny Evelyn
Penny Evelyn earned a Masters Degree in Mathematics and a Minor in Chemistry. She taught Mathematics, Computer Science, and Chemistry for 35 years. Penny Evelyn directed the Treasury for her school district, before retiring to write diaries about her family in portrait as well as words. Penny Evelyn invites you to visit her family novel at FamilyNovel.net. Please contact Penny Evelyn to find out more about her writing services for your own family portrait.
Drafted to serve the United States Army in the Korean War at 15 years old, my husband was a language expert speaking various dialects in Chinese Mandarin, Cantonese, Japanese was studied during the occupation, English, and the differences between locations in South Korea and North Korea. Captured twice as a POW while serving the G.I.s, my husband translated over enemy lines to help American soldiers behind barbed wire in the prison camps. The United States Army sponsored his education at Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas. He earned an MBA International Business, we met, and a few years later the doctors found he had lung cancer. After all these years, I have begun to chronicle his life.
I wished to create a new book. A new book where my sisters and brothers could collaborate. Combine the stories as a family should. Share the stories as we do at reunions when we sit around the table eating BBQ, potato salad, and angel cake with chocolate ice cream. I wanted the material in the text to be delicious. Why not? Why not make the photos taste as good as the sweets we eat at a family reunion. This book allows for size. My sister can add photos to the left with a paper clip. My brother can write his opinions on the side. I can scribble stories that the family remember as we browse through the pages. Penny Evelyn comments on the new book she created in order to help the family write more books with the stories the sisters and brothers collect.
Penny Evelyn found photographs of her husband in the war. Photographs of where he was born, Incheon, where he was raised Seoul, and more importantly, and stories of where he survived as a prisoner in a North Korean POW camp while serving the United States Army. Bell Helicopters brought my husband to Texas Christian University in Forth Worth, where he studied to earn an MBA International Business. Penny Evelyn found those lost photographs of his life on campus in Fort Worth. She found photos of business trips to Boston, Chicago, and New York City, where he imported and exported products from foreign nations. Evelyn's husband found a job. She says, The company had a problem with asbestos. My husband's lungs got infected with cancer. He died after surviving the war overseas. I have the photographs now with the resources to write the story of his journey throughout our family's lives. Join Evelyn as she collects the memories of his journeys.
Penny Evelyn studied Mathematics and Chemistry at Central Michigan University in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. She taught Mathematics, Computer Science, Chemistry, Algebra, and helped students get into college in California, Michigan, Colorado, and Nevada. She has traveled throughout Europe and Asia as well as seventeen cities throughout China including Beijing, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Wuhan, Xian and sailed along the Yangtze River in the middle of the Three Gorges before the Three Gorges Dam was erected. Evelyn continues to take college courses in California studying the history of the miners in the Gold Country from Yosemite National Park to Sacramento, California, Sutter's Mill where gold was discovered in 1848. This discovery of gold led to the pioneering expansion of the 1849 gold rush to the West.
The 1619 Project details the legacy of slavery in America

To observe the anniversary of American slavery, The New York Times Magazine launched The 1619 Project to reframe America’s history through the lens of slavery. The project lead, reporter Nikole Hannah-Jones, joins Hari Sreenivasan to discuss.

JACK SHAINMAN - Hank Willis Thomas
Jack Shainman Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of What Goes
Without Saying, Hank Willis Thomas' third solo exhibition with the gallery.
The show includes photographs, sculpture, painting and new media, all
which delve into the construction of mythologies embedded in popular
culture. Known for his innovative use of advertising, a globally ubiquitous
language, he builds complex narratives about history, identity and race. This
show brings together several facets of Thomas' practice to explore objects
and language, torn from their history, brought to our present, and
repurposed to reveal the process of their agency.
The works in What Goes Without Saying draw from a section of Roland
Barthes' book, Mythologies, to explore the ideas of explicit and implicit
representations found in objects, gestures and phrases. By separating
language from the advertising in which it appears, he effectively
deconstructs the relationship between the reader and viewer. In Thomas'
new carborundum works, part of the Fair Warning series, he takes text from
cigarette advertising in magazines from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s,
retaining the font while abandoning the accompanying visuals. The
decontextualized slogans like Stronger Yet Milder, Measurably Long, and
Immeasurably Cool, come to stand for more than just a cigarette,
highlighting the adjectives used to connote power and elegance, often
times with a sexual tone. These works, produced at the Lower East Side Print
Shop where Thomas is currently in residence, are made from a material that
simultaneously provides a galactic backdrop while mimicking the non-slip
adhesive commonly used to demarcate space in museums. The use of the
material further complicates the object-viewer relationship.
Representing identity through symbol and political motive, Thomas brings
together a series of paintings sourced from the advocacy buttons worn in
support of parties, movements and ideologies over the past fifty years. These
small gestures are used as intellectual weapons and markers of
participation. Alliances are transformed into precious objects that speak to
the creation of collective language and the power of symbols.
Individual objects and their histories are further explored in Thenceforward
and forever free, an enlarged replica of a mid-19th century abolitionist lapel
pin toting a photograph encircled by delicately wrought alloy metal known
to be one of the very first political buttons to incorporate a photograph.
Thomas is able to resurrect the object's history and re-charge its agency to
reflect a characteristically American means of both political advertising and
personal expression.
What Goes Without Saying focuses on subtext, shifting meaning and the
complexity of historical actions embedded in visual culture. These ideas are
important in the context of the current election and the theater of the
campaigns.
Hank Willis Thomas lives and works in New York City. He has exhibited
extensively throughout the United States and internationally. Recent solo
and group exhibitions include Strange Fruit, The Aldrich Contemporary Art
Museum, Connecticut, 2012; Hank Willis Thomas: Strange Fruit, Corcoran
Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., 2011-2012; 30 Americans, Rubell Family
Collection, Florida, 20082013, traveling next to the Memphis Brooks
Museum, Tennessee; More American Photographs, CCA Wattis Institute for
Contemporary Art, California, 2011 -2013, traveling next to the Wexner
for the Arts, Ohio; Making History, MK Museum für Moderne Kunst,
Germany, 2012; 12th Istanbul Biennial, Turkey, 2011; and Greater New York,
MoMA PS1, New York, 2010.
Thomas is included in numerous private and public collections including the
Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum;
New York, the Studio Museum in Harlem, New York; The Whitney Museum of
American Art, New York; and the Baltimore Museum of Art, Maryland.
Thomas, along with Chris Johnson, Bayeté Ross-Smith, and Kamal Sinclair,
created Question Bridge, a project that critically explores challenging issues
within the black male community by instigating a transmedia conversation
among black men across the geographic, economic, generational,
educational and social strata of American society. It has been shown at the
2012 Sundance Film Festival, the 2012 Sheffield Doc/Fest, the Brooklyn
Museum, the Oakland Museum of California and the Utah Museum of
Contemporary Art and is currently on view at the Project Row Houses in
Houston, Texas.
