SUMMARY:Honors Huskies Outing - Unpacking Legacy Seattle Town Hall Lecture
DESCRIPTION:October 9\, 6:30 p.m.\, Seattle Town Hall.  \nJoin student leader Mary Hale and Honors Program Director Stephanie Smallwood for an Honors Huskies outing to this timely lecture: Unpacking Legacy: From the Personal to the Systemic with Dr. Uché Blackstock. \nIn this powerful and deeply personal talk\, Dr. Uché Blackstock explores the legacies that have shaped her journey—both personal and institutional. She reflects on following in her mother’s footsteps to medical school\, a path that made Dr. Blackstock and her twin sister the first Black mother-daughter legacy at the institution.  \nShe also confronts a broader\, systemic legacy—the entrenched racism woven into every aspect of the medical field. From disparities in medical education to the safety and well-being of BIPOC practitioners\, Dr. Blackstock sheds light on the urgent need for change within healthcare institutions.  \nOUR REGISTRATION DEADLINE FOR THIS EVENT HAS PASSED\, BUT TICKETS SHOULD BE AVAILABLE AT TOWN HALL. JUST ARRIVE BY 6:15 AND LOOK FOR DR. SMALLWOOD IF YOU STILL WANT TO JOIN IN!

SUMMARY:Cultural Outing: Victor Luckerson at Town Hall (Full)
DESCRIPTION:Victor Luckerson\, “A Scheme to Forget\, a Demand to Remember: The Century-Long Battle Over the Memory of the Tulsa Race Massacre”\nFeb 26\, 2025\, 6:30 p.m.\, Town Hall\, Seattle \n\nThe Honors Program is proud to co-sponsor this important talk by Victor Luckerson\, a journalist and author who works to bring neglected black history to light.  \nTulsa’s Greenwood neighborhood was an ascendant black business district when it was burned to the ground by a white mob in 1921. Since the days after the destruction\, people in power have been trying to erase the memory of the Tulsa Race Massacre\, going so far as to rip pages from the historical record to hide what unfolded. This purposeful forgetting continues today\, as state governments in Oklahoma and elsewhere limit what histories can be taught to children in schools. But all along black Tulsans have provided their own historical ledger\, through oral histories\, legal battles\, and the black press. They demand that the city and the nation remember. In his lecture\, Built From the Fire author Victor Luckerson will explore this century-long battle over the “terrain of the mind” in Tulsa. His talk will explore why the story of Greenwood has been wiped from the American consciousness for so long\, and the ongoing efforts by black Tulsans to make that legacy more widely known. \nThanks to Honors Director Stephanie Smallwood\, Professor LaShawnDa Pittman and student co-host Tanvi Penubothu for organizing this cultural outing\, which is now at capacity. \nIf you want to join our waitlist\, email forcarey@uw.edu.  \nABOUT THE SPEAKER:  \nVictor Luckerson’s first book\, Built From the Fire\, is a multigenerational saga of a community in Tulsa’s “Black Wall Street\,” that in one century survived the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre\, urban renewal\, and gentrification. Victor is now busy at work on his second book project.

SUMMARY:Unseen and Unsafe: Barriers to Asylum for Refugees with Disabilities (hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:You’re invited to a special presentation by students who participated in the Disability Inclusive Development Initiative (DIDI) project for UNHCR last winter/spring. Several of these students presented findings at the UN to inform policy to better support and protect disabled refugee populations. \nFriday\, February 7\, from 1-2 pm  Hosted by the Disability Studies Program\, this event will provide an in-depth look at the project and its impact on global human rights advocacy. \nThe presentation will be held in person at the D Center\, HUB 327\, and will also be accessible via Zoom:\nZoom Link \nDon’t miss this opportunity to learn about the intersection of disability\, migration\, and human rights from your peers! \nRESEARCH TEAM: Taylor Arredondo\, Stuart Asplund\, Alice Bruil\, Koschei Budkar\, Alexandra Crooks\, Zak Osborn\, Vanessa Pankaj\, and Carlos Yanez Navarro. Research assistant: Kaden Kaeo. Project Advisors: Megan McCloskey\, Johanna Mora\, Mostofa Md. Golam Hasan\, and Rhoda Adeke. \nEXCERPT FROM RESEARCH BRIEF: Although the circumstances in the countries under study are diverse and each face challenges particular to their political\, economic\, and social contexts\, the study finds that none are effectively meeting the needs of refugees with disabilities or fulfilling the promise of international human rights law to the most vulnerable. In short\, to meet the present moment and truly commit to protecting the human rights of all\, governments and humanitarian actors must do more. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Political Prisoners Event (HOPE/BSU collab)
DESCRIPTION:Join HOPE in Prisoners Solidarity Month from January 13th to February 10th! \nWe aim to create a month of intentional programming to uplift voices from inside prisons\, jails\, and detention centers and spread awareness on the political struggles of those behind bars. We hope to shed light on inhumane practices within carceral institutions\, and uplift how people are resisting through community\, education\, and organizing. As practitioners of Transformative Justice\, we believe in addressing cycles of harm and violence and not solely responding to them\, which means supporting grassroots education on the inside and outside. \nWe are collaborating with other RSOs on campus to look at mass incarceration through an intersectional lens. Exploring the ways that our current criminal legal system exploits and weaponizes certain identities before\, during\, and after incarceration. \nWe welcome you to join us during our weeks of solidarity in whatever capacity you are able to and work with us to build a future to break all cages and free all prisoners across the globe. \nIf you have any questions feel free to email hopeuwseattle@gmail.com.
