SUMMARY:Mojos\, Mermaids\, Medicine\, and 400 Years of Black Women’s Magic with Dr. Lindsey Stewart - Virtual
DESCRIPTION:Mojos\, Mermaids\, Medicine\, and 400 Years of Black Women’s Magic with Dr. Lindsey Stewart\, Award-Winning Author and Professor of Philosophy\, Thursday\, February 12th at 1 PM CT \nFeminist philosopher Dr. Lindsey Stewart’s book\, The Conjuring of America: Mojos\, Mermaids\, Medicine\, and 400 Years of Black Women’s Magic\, tells the stories of Negro Mammies of slavery; the Voodoo Queens and Blues Women of Reconstruction; and the Granny Midwives and textile weavers of the Jim Crow era. These women\, in secrecy and subterfuge\, courageously and devotedly continued their practices and worship for centuries and passed down their traditions.  \nConjure informs our lives in ways remarkable and ordinary—from traditional medicines that informed the creation of Vicks VapoRub and the rise of Aunt Jemima’s Pancake Mix\, to the original magic of Disney’s The Little Mermaid (2023)\, and the true origins of the all-American classic blue jean. \nFrom the moment enslaved Africans first arrived on these shores\, conjure was heavily regulated and even outlawed. Now\, Stewart uncovers new contours of American history\, sourcing letters from the enslaved\, dispatches from the lore of Oshun and other African mystics. The Conjuring of America is a love letter to the real magic Black women used\, their herbs\, food\, textiles\, song\, and dance\, used to sow rebellion\, freedom\, and hope. \nJoin us to take part in the magic and celebrate the legacy of America’s founding Black women. Register for free today! \nRegister here: https://libraryc.org/hutchpl \nAbout the Author: Lindsey Stewart is a Black feminist philosopher and an Associate Professor of philosophy at the University of Memphis. She is the author of The Politics of Black Joy. Her work has been featured in Blavity\, Signs\, Hypatia\, and the British Journal for the History of Philosophy\, and she holds a 2021 Michael Beaney Prize. She lives in Memphis\, Tennessee.

SUMMARY:Art Talk - Northern Renaissance Printmaking
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how news got around during the Renaissance? Did they draw or paint all those pictures by hand like Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel? \nThe Northern Renaissance brought about the first books published with movable type rather than laboriously handwritten texts. An innovation that made mass-market paperbacks possible hundreds of years later. What would libraries be without the invention of the printing press? We can hardly stand to think about it! \n\n\n\nWe have a lot of questions about the origins of print and printmaking\, we bet you do too!. So we asked Hutchinson Community College to come back and talk about it!  Professor Kim Ivancovich will lead the discussion as we dive into the earliest days of printmaking and early technological invention. During the program\, you’ll get to experience printmaking yourself with a hands-on guided art project! \nPlease RSVP to get reminders closer to the date. Let us know you plan to be there so we can estimate what supplies we’ll need. Thank you for supporting library programs and the Hutchinson Community College with your attendance!
