SUMMARY:The New Red Book: A Guide to 50 of Houston’s Black Historical and Cultural Sites
DESCRIPTION:Get Tickets\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Dr. Lindsay Gary \nThe New Red Book: A Guide to 50 of Houston’s Black Historical and Cultural Sites (2022) by Dr. Lindsay Gary highlights the history of Houston through the perspective of place - 50 cultural organizations and sites created and sustained by African Americans. It documents little-known histories of the Almeda Post Office\, the site of the first non-violent civil rights demonstration in the city\, as well as pop culture destinations such as Frenchy’s Creole Kitchen and Screwed Up Records and Tapes. The title pays tribute to the original 1915 publication The Red Book of Houston: A Compendium of Social\, Professional\, Religious\, Education and Industrial Interests of Houston’s Colored Population\, recognized by researchers as one of a kind for its detailed description of African American success in the South during a time of social and political upheaval. It takes readers on a rich and compelling journey through the histories of Houston\, the region\, and African American culture. \nThis presentation will explore the research methods and practices used to create The New Red Book\, in addition to challenges that were faced and the impact of the publication. In conversation with its historical implications\, it will discuss its connection to The Red Book of 1915 and the role texts have played in the past and can play the future in preserving the legacy of Black historical and cultural sites. \nDr. Lindsay Gary (PhD\, MFA\, MA\, MPA) is a professor-scholar\, conceptual diasporArtist\, and Afrocentric entrepreneur whose mission is to educate\, connect\, and empower the African Diaspora. She graduated from the University of Houston with a BA in History and minors in Dance and Business Administration\, and later obtained her Graduate Certificate in African American Studies. She also has an MA in History\, an MPA in Public Policy\, and an MFA in Dance\, and recently obtained her PhD in Africology and African American Studies from Temple University. Gary is an adjunct professor of African American Studies at the University of Houston and of History at Houston Community College\, in addition to being the Executive Director of The Re-Education Project (501c3)\, the Artistic and Executive Director of Dance Afrikana LLC\, Co-Director of Ade Ile Properties (Nigeria)\, and the CEO of Isegun Enterprises LLC (home of Sawari Tours\, Afrikanah Book Club\, Gumbo: The Podcast\, and more). She is the author of The New Red Book: A Guide to 50 of Houston’s Black Historical and Cultural Sites\, and the director and creator of “Who Yo’ People?”\, a documentary film that explores the African heritage of Louisiana. \nPublic programs at Holocaust Museum Houston are presented by Memorial Hermann.

SUMMARY:The Golem Legend and Holocaust Memory
DESCRIPTION:Rabbi Joshua R. S. Fixler \nThere are many Jewish legends about the golem – a creature formed from clay and brought to life using mystical knowledge to serve the Jewish community. Often the golem is portrayed protecting the Jews from pogroms and blood libels. Since the Holocaust\, many artists and authors have wrestled with the golem’s legacy. Where was this mythic protector when the Jews needed it the most? Inspired by this season of creepy creatures\, Rabbi Josh Fixler of Congregation Emanu El will introduce us to the golem legend and explore the unique ways the golem is imagined in post-Holocaust art and fiction. \nRabbi Joshua R. S. Fixler serves as Associate Rabbi at Congregation Emanu El in Houston. He is the president of the Houston Faith Leaders Coalition\, a board member of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice and the Houston Rabbinical Association\, and a member of the steering committee for the Texas Religious Action Center of Reform Judaism (RAC-TX). Rabbi Fixler was ordained at the Hebrew Union College – Jewish Institute of Religion (HUC-JIR) in May 2017. While in rabbinical school\, Rabbi Fixler was a Wexner Graduate Fellow and a Bonnie and Daniel Tisch Rabbinical Fellow. During his time at HUC-JIR\, Joshua also completed an Advanced Professional Certificate in Management for Public & Nonprofit Organizations at New York University. \nPublic programs at Holocaust Museum Houston are presented by Memorial Hermann. \n			\n				Get Tickets
