SUMMARY:The Common Reading Experience presents "Everything Everywhere All at Once" at the Bohm Theater Sept. 19 & 20
DESCRIPTION:The 2023 Common Reading Experience presents “Everything Everywhere All at Once” at the Bohm Theater on September 19 & 20 from 6:30 – 9pm. \nThe 2023 Common Reading Experience is offering two free screenings of “Everything Everywhere All at Once” at Albion’s Historic Bohm Theatre. The first screening will be Tuesday\, Sept. 19 from 6:30-9 p.m. The second screening will be Wednesday\, Sept. 20 from 6:30-9 p.m. The film begins at 7 p.m. The concession stand will be open during these free public screenings. \nThe 2023 Common Reading Experience selection is a curated collection of easily digestible works centered on the theme of belonging\, identity and self discovery.  “Everything Everywhere All At Once” beautifully and chaotically wrestles with themes of immigration\, mental health\, parent-child dynamics\, generational trauma and the impulse many of us have to question what our lives might look like if we had made different choices. This film is notable for casting a middle-aged Asian American woman in the role of a superhero. It was the first film depicting the lives of Asian Americans to win the Oscar for Best Picture.

SUMMARY:Workshop Honoring Indigenous People: Crafting and Facilitating Land Acknowledgments
DESCRIPTION:On August 3\, 1990\, President of the United States George H.W. Bush declared the month of November as National Native American Heritage Month. However\, the first “American Indian Day” was celebrated in New York City in 1916. This is our time to celebrate the traditions\, languages\, and stories of Native American culture. It is essential to acknowledge the contributions that indigenous people contribute to this nation. This heritage month will raise awareness about the unique challenges Indigenous people have faced historically and in the present. \nAlbion College’s Native American land acknowledgment:\nThe College and community of Albion reside on Anishinaabe Waki\, the traditional and contemporary land of the Anishinaabe People — the Three Fires Confederacy of Odawa\, Ojibwe and Potawatomi. Parts of what is now Michigan also include ancestral homelands of the Sauk\, Meskwaki\, Kickapoo\, Menominee\, Miami and Peoria Peoples. \nThe Office of Belonging and Campus Life would like to thank Anthropology & Sociology and Center for Sustainability & the Environment for their collaboration. Please see the flyer attached with the events.
