The Sharing Hope Series is a cross-cultural celebration in collaboration with the Office of Diversity & Inclusion (ODI), Asian Network Yale (ANY), and National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). Sharing Hope creates safe spaces for Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities to foster connections and address pertinent issues that affect us. We will touch upon topics such as mental health and family, accessing care from AANHPI professionals, signs and symptoms of mental health conditions, and more!

Historian Jill Newmark will discuss her research on Richard Henry Greene, the first African American to graduate from Yale University and a key figure in her new book Without Concealment, Without Compromise: The Courageous Lives of Black Civil War Surgeons.

This conference focuses on the ways in which the protest- in particular young feminist and student protest in México City- can be visualized, translated, most of all read and theorized as crucially pedagogical and critically political. Much of what is expressed, drawn, painted during the protest (graffiti, murals, pintas) fades or vanishes below the surface. My aim is to stay with what vanishes and fades, with what is incommensurable or difficult to be narrated or placed together, and may be constitutive of a political discourse or a pedagogical intervention.
