SUMMARY:Launch and Presentation of the Critical Sustainabilities Website
DESCRIPTION:From activism to ecology\, alternative culture to industry\, “sustainability\,” it seems\, is everywhere. In the face of economic and environmental crisis\, and unprecedented rates of urbanization\, the term has become ubiquitous in policy circles and across many social domains. Yet this ubiquity presents us with competing and often contradictory meanings and applications\, and can lead to conflicts over fundamental questions such as “sustainability of what and for whom?” This in turn poses challenges for sustainability scholarship\, planning\, policy\, and practice. \nCritical Sustainabilities is a new website that aims to address these issues. It focus on iconic sustainability efforts in Northern California — many of which have popularized the concept nationally and globally — while exploring the multiple\, often contested ways these efforts have made use of the term. It offers tools in the forms of “keywords” and “sites” to help grasp the histories and locations through which ideas about sustainability have been produced and become powerful. And it presents “projects” that explore these ideas through a creative and critical lens. \nPlease join us as we launch Critical Sustainabilities\, and share a few contributions from the site: \n* Miriam Greenberg (UCSC): “Sustainabilities”\n* Simon Sadler (UC Davis): “Keyword: Ecological Design” and “Site: Bateson Building”\n* Elsa Ramos (UCSC) “Keyword: Transit Oriented Development” and “Site: 16th and Mission BART Plaza”\n* Tracy Perkins (UCSC): “Site: Gonzales” and “Project: Voices from the Valley”\n* Kristin Miller (UCSC): “Keyword: Google Bus” and “Projects: Postcards from the Future”\n* Rachel Brahinsky (University of San Francisco): “Teaching Critical Sustainabilities”

SUMMARY:"Cry Havoc"!
DESCRIPTION:Over 23 million living veterans have been wired for war but never re-wired to come home: Cry Havoc\, a one-person play by military veteran Stephan Wolfert\, that seamlessly interweaves Shakespeare’s most famous speeches with personal experience to help us understand the national crises we face when we fail in re-integrating our veterans. \nThe military recruits citizens and wires them for war\, but does not un-wire them. What does the “De-Cruit® ” process look like? Is there room for improvement in the way in which we re-integrate our veterans back into society? How do we come together to re-learn how to live? The performance is followed by an engaging talk back between actor\, audience\, and veterans that dares to answer these questions. \nFree and open to the public! One night only. \n5:30pm Reception  \n*LIVE music by veteran Paul Damon – Paul Damon Music \n6:00pm Performance  \n*Actor and veteran Stephan Wolfert  – Veterans Center for the Performing Arts\n\nIn addition\, be sure to join actor Stephan Wolfert (Founding Director\, Veterans Center for the Performing Arts)\, and Humanities and Arts Division faculty and students from UC Santa Cruz for “Coming Home from War: The Arts and Humanities in the Public Sphere” a panel discussion on June 2\, 2015 4-6pm at Kresge Town Hall\, UC Santa Cruz. \nBrought to you by the UC Santa Cruz Shakespeare Workshop and the Institute for Humanities Research. \nFREE & OPEN TO THE PUBLIC \nFor disability accommodations please contact IHR at 831-459-5655 or ihr@ucsc.edu. \nDowntown Parking near the Veterans Hall: Front Street Garage No.7 or street metered parking. \nFacebook \n  \n  \nEVENT PHOTOS:\nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.
