SUMMARY:The Memoirs of Robert & Mabel Williams: African American Freedom\, Armed Resistance\, and International Solidarity
DESCRIPTION:Presented by The Center for Racial Justice. Cosponsored by Oakes College. Free and open to the public. \nBorn in Jim Crow–era Monroe\, North Carolina\, Robert F. Williams and Mabel R. Williams were the state’s most legendary African American freedom fighters. \n\n\nThe Williamses’ leadership in Monroe was just the beginning of a lifelong pursuit of freedom and justice for Black people in the United States and for oppressed populations throughout the world. Their activism foreshadowed major developments in the civil rights and Black Power movements\, including Malcolm X’s advocacy of fighting oppression “by any means necessary\,” the emergence of the Black Panther Party\, and Black solidarity with Third World liberation movements. \nRobert documented his experiences in Monroe in his classic 1962 book\, NEGROES WITH GUNS\, and completed a draft of his memoir\, WHILE GOD LAY SLEEPING\, months before his death in 1996. Mabel began a memoir of her own before her death in 2014. The family selected John Bracey Jr.\, Akinyele K. Umoja\, and Gloria Aneb House to edit and complete the manuscripts\, which are presented together in this book\, offering a gripping portrait of these pioneering freedom fighters that is both deeply intimate and a fierce call to action in the ongoing fight against racial injustice. \n\n\n\nAkinyele K. Umoja is a professor of Africana studies at Georgia State University. \nLisa Williams is the daughter-in-law of Robert and Mabel Williams.

SUMMARY:Saru Jayaraman: "Behind the Kitchen Door in Santa Cruz and Across America"
DESCRIPTION:More Americans are choosing to dine healthy and ethically at restaurants offering organic and fair-trade ingredients. Yet few diners are aware of the working conditions at the restaurants themselves. How do restaurant workers live on some of the lowest wages in America? And how do poor working conditions—discriminatory labor practices\, exploitation\, and unsanitary kitchens—affect the meals that arrive at our restaurant tables? In her book\, Behind the Kitchen Door\, Saru Jayaraman tries to answer these questions by following a group of restaurant workers\, among the 10 million – many of whom are immigrants and people of color – who make up the nation’s second-largest private sector workforce. Whether you eat haute cuisine or fast food\, the well-being of restaurant workers is a pressing concern\, affecting our health and safety\, as well as our local economies. \nMs. Jayaraman’s talk will be followed with a Q&A session with the author along with Gretchen Regenhardt\, attorney and representative of the Watsonville-based group\, California Rural Legal Assistance\, which is launching a survey and research project on low-wage restaurant workers in Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties. \nSaru Jayaraman is a graduate of Yale Law School and the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and director of the Food Labor Research Center at UC Berkeley.  She is also co-Founder of the Restaurant Opportunities Centers United (ROC United)\, a national organization with 10\,000 members across 26 cities\, which organizes restaurant workers to win workplace justice\, conducts research\, partners with responsible employers\, and launched cooperatively-owned restaurants. She has appeared on Real Time with Bill Maher\, MSNBC\, NBC Nightly News\, and PBS\, among others. \nCalifornia Rural Legal Assistance\, founded in 1966 as a nonprofit legal services program\, now has 21 offices\, providing more than 40\,000 low-income rural Californians with free legal assistance and a variety of community education and outreach programs. \nCo-Sponsored by the UCSC Center for Labor Studies\, the Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems\, the Sociology Department\, the Chicano Latino Resource Center\,  Oakes College\, and the Institute for Humanities Research. \nFor more information\, please contact smckay@ucsc.edu
