SUMMARY:CENSORSHIP and related acts of authoritarian desperation
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to register for an upcoming public conversation hosted by the DePaul Humanities Center as part of this year’s Present Tense Series. \nOn Thursday\, February 26\, we will host CENSORSHIP\, a conversation exploring censorship as a persistent issue affecting culture\, politics\, academic discourse\, and public expression. This event is presented by the DHC as part of DePaul’s “Present TENSE” series\, which provides space to think about and talk through political and social changes against the backdrop of history. \nSpeakers include: \nMichael Berry\nUCLA professor specializing in contemporary Chinese literature\, film\, and cultural politics in a global context. \nSarah Schulman\nNorthwestern professor\, writer\, and cultural critic\, whose work examines power\, scapegoating\, and public memory. \nBrenda Azucena Muñoz Yáñez\nA communication researcher at Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila focused on digital media and cultural analysis. \nThe Present Tense Series highlights conversations that address urgent questions of our moment and explores how the humanities help us understand and respond to them. This event continues that mission by asking who controls speech\, whose voices are silenced\, and why censorship matters now.

SUMMARY:Queer Connections Presents: Black Queer Histories  “A Conversation with Author Darius Bost”
DESCRIPTION:Queer Connections: Men of Color + Allies would like to host an intimate book launch and author conversation celebrating the work of Darius Bost\, award-winning scholar and co-author of a groundbreaking new book that centers Black queer voices across U.S. history.\nThe evening would feature a moderated panel-style interview with Darius Bost\, highlighting key themes from the book and exploring the intersection of Black history\, queerness\, gender expression\, and liberation movements. This conversation would be followed by a brief audience Q&A and an opportunity to connect over drinks. \nEvent Host: Mycall Akeem Riley\nAbout the Book\nThis landmark work is the first Black history text to center queer voices\, tracing the lives and contributions of LGBTQ+ Black Americans from slavery to the present day. Co-authored by Professors C. Riley Snorton and Darius Bost as part of Beacon Press’ award-winning ReVisioning History series\, the book examines how gender and sexual expression have always been integral to Black freedom struggles.\nThrough powerful storytelling and historical analysis\, the book uplifts figures such as Josephine Baker\, Bayard Rustin\, Private Cathay Williams\, and Amanda Milan\, while also addressing the marginalization\, criminalization\, and resistance of Black queer and trans communities. It ultimately reframes Black and LGBTQ+ history as deeply interconnected. \nAudience & Format\nOpen to everyone of all ages

DESCRIPTION:Dai Minenger\, a Black trans man\, DJ\, and University of Illinois alum with a degree in Music Technology\, is releasing Transcend—a 365-day planner created to affirm and support trans-identifying people. The idea for the planner grew directly from Dai’s experience navigating multiple creative music ventures and finding that existing organizational tools didn’t reflect his workflow or his identity.\nThe book release will take place at Da Book Joint\, a Black woman-owned bookstore on the South Side\, and is open to the public. \nThe event highlights Black and LGBTQ+ creativity\, community-centered wellness\, and the intersection of art\, identity\, and self-care.

SUMMARY:The Abnormal Heart
DESCRIPTION:Winner of the Off-Broadway United Solo Pride Award and celebrated sold-out Hollywood Fringe run\, “The Abnormal Heart” is an unmissable solo piece by dynamic performer and writer\, Parker Mills. The show navigates the comedic yet poignant adventures of a “brave\,” unsuccessful\, middle-aged homosexual and his lifelong search for…something. From pretending to be a born-again Christian to a short stint in phone sex\, and even narrowly escaping death while dressed as a gorilla\, Parker’s journey celebrates the resilience of the human spirit and the idea that a heart never truly breaks\, it just gets banged up a little. \nDirected by Marilyn McIntyre and produced by Dawn Sebock. \nTrailer for the show : https://youtu.be/ELqzHXhWSZk?si=M2lSpJ7voSWDs_XV

SUMMARY:MUDRA By Shalaka Kulkarni
DESCRIPTION:Interdisciplinary Asian-American dance artist Shalaka Kulkarni creates experiences that bridge the ancient and contemporary. In this piece featuring guest artist Yoshinojo Fujima (aka Rika Lin)\, Kulkarni illuminates a dance-theatre journey through sand\, water and the language of gestures. \nMUDRA is inspired by Shalaka’s time spent with the renowned Maureen Fleming – a Guggenheim Fellow and Fulbright Scholar. This residency was made possible through a grant through 3Arts\, a nonprofit organization that supports artists working in the performing\, teaching\, and visual arts in the Chicago metropolitan area.  \nAbout the Artists\nShalaka is trained in Bharatanatyam and Kathak styles\, working under artists Pranita Nayar\, Sandhya Desai and Nana Shineflug\, and holds an MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. Her work explores female identity\, societal norms\, and mythic narratives through hybrid movement and storytelling. As a principal dancer and choreographer\, she has performed in India\, the U.S.\, and Europe\, including work with Kalapriya Dance Company and the Anila Sinha Foundation. She is also a founder of SurTaal\, a collective presenting hybrid Indian classical dance works. Her creative collaborations include performances in The Story of Ram (Harris Theater)\, the Fever Up series (Chopin Theater)\, Bridge Dance Festival (Links Hall)\, Chicago Danzetheatre Ensemble\, La Pocha Nostra\, Dance Chicago Festival. She has also held residencies at the Chicago Cultural Center\, High Concept Labs\, Mandala Arts\, Ragdale\, and SloMoCO (Movement and Computing Community). Learn more about Shalaka at shalakakulkarni.com or on social media @shalaka_dance.  \n  \nYoshinojo Fujima (aka Rika Lin) is an interdisciplinary artist\, dancemaker\, and Grandmaster in Fujima-style Japanese classical dance and is part of the postwar Japanese American diaspora. Her process and art springs forth from the complete immersion in traditional practice and then ‘sonar pings’ as questions\, challenges\, and then fireworks into a coalesced impression. Learn more at yoshinojo.org/ or follow on social media @fujima.yoshinojo.
