Spring 2021 Events

Civil Dialogue: Midwestern Nice 

Access a copy of the event recording HERE (Viterbo users only). 

Midwestern nice; the phenomenon in which folks in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and surrounding areas are unusually courteous, reserved, mild-mannered, and passive-aggressive. You’ve heard the jokes, and probably noticed it in your own behaviors, or the behaviors around you. Is it good to live up to the stereotype, or does it cause harm? How do you advocate for yourself or call out inappropriate behaviors when everyone around is just too nice? Join our panel as they discuss the ups and downs of experiencing and practicing midwestern nice in their personal and professional lives, and how it may or may not be appropriate.  

Civil Dialogue: Facts, Fake News, & Click Bait...What's the Difference? 

Access a copy of the recording HERE (Viterbo users only). 

It’s happened to all of us - you share an article, and someone accuses you of spreading ‘fake news.’ In a time of increased rhetoric and division, it’s important to know what truly is ‘fake’ and what is true. Join our panel to learn more about their experiences navigating multiple news sources, discuss if it’s important to avoid biased sources or if they have a place in health conversations, and how to examine a news story for truth. 

Professionalism 

Blazers, knee-length pencil skirts, neckties, shoes with a heel, trim hair, no visible tattoos or piercings... the checklist for dressing like a professional is endless. Does it matter? What if you don't have the funds for a professional wardrobe? Does the definition of professionalism vary between workplace? How do identities affect the way we interpret professionalism. 

Join the Identities Project, Career Services, and our panelists navigating the changing workplace. All are welcome and encourage to take part in the conversation! 

We are excited to have the following serve as panelists for our conversation:  

-Diana Moran Thundercloud 

-Stephen Conrad 

-Tonya Van Tol

A Thousand Paper Cuts: An Identities Project Panel Exploring Microaggressions

A microaggression is a casual or common verbal, behavioural, or environmental indignity.

They can range from negative to derogatory to hostile, and can be targeted at any group - but particularly marginalized groups. 

Join our panel as they talk about their experience being on the giving and receiving ends of microaggressions, share examples of common microaggressions you may not have thought of, and explore how we can do better. Treats will be provided, and all are welcome to this free event!

PROMISE Committee and Identities Project Presents: Guante on Men and Masculinity 

Kyle “Guante” Tran Myhre is a poet, educator, and activist based in Minneapolis, MN. His work explores the relationships between identity, power, and resistance, and he’s performed everywhere from the United Nations, to music festivals like Eaux Claires and Soundset, to countless colleges, universities, and conferences. A two-time National Poetry Slam champion, Tran Myhre has also given a TEDx Talk, published a book (available now via Button Poetry), and can currently be heard as the co-host of “What’s Good, Man?” a podcast on healthy masculinity.

In this interactive presentation/dialogue, Guante uses poems and storytelling as entry points into dialogue about what lessons boys and young men learn about “what it means to be a man,” the potential danger in some of those lessons, and what we can all do to help build a world free from gender-based violence.

Or your husband of 30 years announces that he wants to be a woman? How do college students at All Girl colleges react when "he" becomes a "she." 

Newscasting legend Katie Couric takes us on a unique journey - from birth to death - to discover the dynamics of gender in 2016.

Screening of Hailing Cesar 
(part of Hispanic Heritage Month) 

"I was only three years old when Cesar passed away. Growing up comfortably in the Bay Area, where my father Fernando was a lawyer, I had difficulty connecting with my grandfather’s life.

After a turning point in my life, I began to explore the places, learn about the people, and carry out the activities that were so important to Cesar. My journey included working in the fields, picking grapes, as both my grandfather and father once did.

My goal is to share Cesar's message with a new generation. This film is my first step in honoring his legacy.

A group of buddies is hanging out in their campus's scrappy theater, surrounded by plywood and power tools, when a freshman arrives seeking advice.

What if the apparent victim was willing—or the apparent rapist was someone they know? As the group debates, argues, and eventually votes (then votes again, and again) on what to do, stories from that night emerge, revealing that everyone present played some role in what happened, and everyone has something to lose.
