from facebook: Please register in advance here: https://tulane.zoom.us/.../regi.../WN_qzhKDUD6S36ZK-LYYMCzgw The New Orleans Center for the Gulf South and A Studio in the Woods present a virtual discussion with National Book Award winner and 2016-18 Gulf South Writer in the Woods Edward Ball and Tulane historian Dr. Laura Rosanne Adderley about Ball’s book, "Life of a Klansman: A Family History in White Supremacy", which addresses painful truths of America’s racist past and present, engages with the vibrant national discussion of anti-racism, and serves as an anti-racist history of white supremacy in Louisiana. The program includes opening remarks by Dr. Anneliese Singh, Tulane University Associate Provost for Diversity and Faculty Development and Chief Diversity Officer. Presented by the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South, housed within the Tulane School of Liberal Arts, and A Studio in the Woods, a program of the Tulane ByWater Institute, with co-sponsors Amistad Research Center and Garden District Book Shop. Event Objectives - Empower contemporary anti-racist work by illuminating the often purposefully obscured history of white supremacy in order to better understand its patterns, insidious power, and crippling effects. - Educate our community about New Orleans’ role in the global construction of theories of race and its intertwined histories of white supremacist and racist mob violence, publications, and governance, and of anti-racist, Black-led organizing, publications, and governance. - Respond to the call to expose Tulane’s white supremacist history by educating ourselves about Tulane’s history and relationship to the global construction of race theory, as host of lectures by “race philosophers” instrumental in codifying and popularizing constructs of race, and to white radical terrorism, as meeting hall for local white vigilante terrorists who participated in mob violence, government insurrection, and massacre, which is detailed in this book. - Explore how 19th century organized white violence relates to white nationalism and violence today and the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol in January 2021.

Denise Frasier and Theo Hilton discuss this upcoming event. "Join Gulf South Writer in the Woods Ladee Hubbard and culinary historian Jessica Harris for a discussion of Hubbard’s new novel, "The Rib King" on Tuesday, January 26, 2021 at 6pm CT. Hubbard works to deconstruct painful African American stereotypes and offers a fresh and searing critique on race, class, privilege, ambition, exploitation, and the seeds of rage in America in this intricately woven and masterfully executed historical novel, set in the early twentieth century, that centers around the Black servants of a down-on-its heels upper-class white family. Elegantly written and exhaustively researched, "The Rib King" is an unsparing examination of America’s fascination with Black iconography and exploitation that redefines African American stereotypes in literature. In this powerful, disturbing, and timely novel, Ladee Hubbard reveals who people actually are, and most importantly, who and what they are not. Ladee Hubbard served as the 2019-2020 Gulf South Writer in the Woods, a program of A Studio in the Woods and the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South that supports the creative work, scholarship and community engagement of writers examining the Gulf South region. --- Ladee Hubbard is the author of "The Talented Ribkins" which received the 2018 Ernest J. Gaines Award for Literary Excellence. Her writing has appeared in Guernica, The Times Literary Supplement, Arkansas International, Copper Nickel and Callaloo among other venues. She is a recipient of a 2016 Rona Jaffe Foundation Writers’ Award and has also received fellowships from Art Omi, the Sacatar Foundation, the Sustainable Arts Foundation, Hedgebrook, and the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts among other places. Born in Massachusetts and raised in the U.S. Virgin Islands and Florida, she currently lives in New Orleans with her husband and three children. Jessica B. Harris is an award-winning food historian and one of the world’s leading experts on African Diaspora cooking. She is the author of the memoir, "My Soul Looks Back" (Simon & Schuster, 2017) about her youth in Harlem in the Seventies, where her social circle included James Baldwin, Toni Morrison, Maya Angelou, Nina Simone and other leading black intellectuals and artists of the time. She is the author of twelve critically acclaimed cookbooks documenting the foods and foodways of the African Diaspora as well, including "Iron Pots and Wooden Spoons: Africa’s Gifts to New World Cooking", "Sky Juice and Flying Fish Traditional Caribbean Cooking", "The Welcome Table: African-American Heritage Cooking", "The Africa Cookbook: Tastes of a Continent", and "Beyond Gumbo: Creole Fusion Food from the Atlantic Rim".

The Seaway Movement: A Lecture by Richard Campanella Monday, December 7 6:00PM-7:15PM CST Registration Link: https://tulane.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_xElF_smgSkm1wG3A0YWrWA New Orleans Center for the Gulf South invites you to our annual Monroe Lecture with geographer Richard Campanella. Campanella is associate dean and senior professor of practice in Tulane University's School of Architecture. In this illustrated talk, Campanella explores two rival shipping canals of the West Bank, one dug by enslaved laborers and the other by immigrants, and how they reconfigured the urban geography of our region—nearly to the point of calamity. As a geographer, Campanella researches questions of “where” and “why there.” That is, he tries to identify, characterize, and explain spatial patterns—of human settlement, the built environment, and the underlying physical geography—with an emphasis on New Orleans and Louisiana. His approach is empirical and quantitative, using mapping and spatial analysis tools such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing, integrated with qualitative sources and humanistic methods. His recent work The West Bank of Greater New Orleans: A Historical Geography examines the West Bank holistically, as a legitimate subregion with its own story to tell. No other part of greater New Orleans has more diverse yet deeply rooted populations: folks who speak in local accents, who exhibit longstanding cultural traits, and, in some cases, who maintain family ownership of lands held since antebellum times―even as immigrants settle here in growing numbers. Campanella demonstrates that West Bankers have had great agency in their own place­-making, and he challenges the notion that their story is subsidiary to a more important narrative across the river. For more information on Richard Campanella, please visit https://richcampanella.com/. For more information on this event, please email gulfsouth@tulane.edu or call 504-314-2854. Braid and Flow: Power Friday, December 11, 12:00-1:00PM CST and Monday, December 14, 4:00-5:15PM CST Zoom Link: tulane.zoom.us/j/92870457936 Electrical power is measured in watts. The time it takes for power to transfer to an electric circuit is determined by the rate of work done by an object which is held at certain constant velocities. Hurricane Zeta demonstrated how reliant we are on the "constant" of electrical power. The recent election and impending transfer of presidential powers is a reminder of the precarious and delicate balance of democracy amidst national and political divisions. In December, Braid and Flow will tackle the topic of "Power." How is it transferred? At what velocity does it travel? What is its impact? Braid and Flow convenes twice each month to explore themes that stretch across scales and disciplines, such as food and food systems, racial violence, climate, money, cultural institutions, technology and intimacy. Our goal is to strengthen the theories and the practices that guide our work as artists, activists, researchers, policy makers, writers, scientists, designers, teachers, students, and leaders, all working to navigate the Anthropocene and the challenges of climate change, white supremacy, and the global pandemic. These conversations are hosted by the The Blue House/Civic Studio, Water Leaders Institute, PUNCTUATE, Antenna, New Orleans Center for the Gulf South, and the Gulf South Anthropocene Working Group, with the support of the following people: Shana griffin, Aron Chang, Rebecca Snedeker, and Denise Frazier.

FROM THE N2A WEBSITE OUR VISION: We envision a world in which families and communities are not divided by systems of incarceration and in which we all work collectively to fight mass incarceration, and other interconnected systems of oppression, to create a just world for everyone. OUR MISSION: Nola to Angola organizes an annual bicycle ride to Angola Prison to support and fund the Cornerstone Builders Bus Project, which connects families to their incarcerated loved ones. We also organize a shorter social justice ride around New Orleans to highlight the work of community partners fighting mass incarceration. We educate people about the ways in which mass incarceration works in tandem with other systems of oppression, such as poverty and white supremacy, to disproportionately harm members of our communities. We do this through collective organizing, as well as leading training rides and educational events. We prioritize partnering with organizations led by formerly-incarcerated people and people of color, and work to support their leadership on prison justice issues.

NOWCRJ PRESS RELEASE: New Orleans, LA, January 11, 2019—Workers from across New Orleans will converge on the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center on Monday to declare a national emergency over President Trump’s war against workers, communities of color, immigrants, women and the LGBTQ community. The announcement coincides with President Trump’s appearance at the American Farm Bureau Federation’s annual convention and comes as President Trump’s shutdown over the border wall is forcing hundreds of thousands of federal workers to struggle with how to provide for their families. President Trump suggested on Thursday that he may upend the democratic process and constitutional norms to raid disaster relief funding, including money budgeted for Louisiana infrastructure projects intended to protect against hurricanes. The irony of cutting disaster prevention funding to pay for a manufactured crisis on the southern border is not lost on immigrant reconstruction workers who face the threat of deportation from Trump’s anti-immigrant vendetta, Black New Orleanians watching a federal erosion of police oversight 13 years after the Danziger Bridge, or poor New Orleanians still unable to afford to return to New Orleans even as Trump cuts taxes for corporations and the rich. The declaration is being organized by the New Orleans Workers’ Center for Racial Justice and the New Orleans People’s Assembly. Workers who helped rebuild New Orleans and who bore the impact of the government’s catastrophic response after Hurricane Katrina will give testimony on how Trump’s national disaster threatens their safety and economic security and will break out their clean up gear to remind the American public what happens when the response to a national disaster is negligent.
