Join Khambrel Marshall at 2 p.m. in conversation with Houston artist Ava Cosey as she reflects on her work including “Ancestor’s Torch” featured in The Kinsey African American Art & History Collection\, on view in the Josef and Edith Mincberg Gallery through June 23\, 2024. \nFrom the restless seas and the missing torn out pages of our history books\, the “Ancestor’s Torch” painting strives to exemplify the agony of the enslaved trade ship and to relay the bellowing spirit of endurance from our ancestors. Mocking history\, resounding words of inventions and contributions by African Americans from the 18th century and beyond are intricately designed by the artist\, Ava Cosey which are intertwined throughout the garment. \nCosey\, a HBCU Business Education graduate\, is a phenomenally gifted artist and printmaker.  In 1997\, she experienced an epiphany that catapulted her into a creative\, remarkable talent. \n“Art rejuvenates my soul\,” said Cosey.  “Led by infinite inspiration and divine guidance\, I am fascinated by the startling effect of visualization.  I am dedicated to my gift and my passion is to share my God given talents.  My goal is to capture the interest of the viewer by creating a visual that will intrigue and invoke emotions which relates to their experiences.” \nCosey works in a variety of mediums\, i.e.\, oil acrylic\, pastels\, ink and mixed media; and also uses the process of monoprints\, silkscreens\, etchings\, sculpting and fiber.  She uses vivid colors\, majestic characters and universal themes to paint meaningful images\, places and things.  Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally.

This new research is based on a broader definition and countless hitherto untapped sources\, including local police and court records as well as video testimonies of survivors. Introducing five new categories of resistance\, the talk shows how between 1933 and 1945 Jews performed countless resistance acts in Nazi Germany proper\, by destroying Nazi symbols\, publicly protesting against the persecution\, disobeying Nazi laws and local restrictions\, and defending themselves from verbal insults as well as physical attacks. The fact that so many German Jewish women and men of all ages\, educations and professions defied the Nazis obliterates the common view of the passivity of Jews under Nazi persecution. Their courageous acts\, however\, still need to be incorporated into the general narrative of the persecution of the Jews in Nazi Germany and the Holocaust in general. \nWolf Gruner (PhD\, Technical University Berlin) is the Shapell-Guerin Chair in Jewish Studies and Professor of History at the University of Southern California\, Los Angeles since 2008\, and Founding Director of the USC Dornsife Center for Advanced Genocide Research since 2014. He is an appointed member of the Academic Committee at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum since 2017. He is the author of eleven books\, among them Jewish Forced Labor under the Nazis. Economic Needs and Nazi Racial Aims with Cambridge University Press (2006)\, Parias de la Patria“. El mito de la liberación de los indígenas en la República de Bolivia 1825-1890 (2015)\, and the prizewinning The Holocaust in Bohemia and Moravia. Czech Initiatives\, German Policies\, Jewish Responses (2019). He coedited four books\, including „Resisting Persecution. Jews and Their Petitions during the Holocaust” (2020)\, and “New Perspectives on Kristallnacht: After 80 Years\, the Nazi Pogrom in Global Comparison” (2019). His new book is called: Resisters.
