Breaking the Silence: Remembering Brown’s Chapel AME

submitted by peacocks@augsburg.edu

Sunday, October 23
First Presbyterian Church in Hastings, MN
2 pm

Presentation by James Curry, instructor of Communication Studies, Film & New Media at Augsburg

For more details: BR4R.org

Join us for a public event to honor the stories of the early Black community that lived, worked, raised their families, fought for the right to vote, and worshipped in Hastings, Minnesota. In 1890 they formed an African Methodist Episcopal congregation in Hastings, and in 1892 began worshiping in their own church, Brown’s Chapel. In 1907, Brown’s Chapel was destroyed by arson. There is no record of the crime being investigated, and the culprit(s) were never officially identified or charged. The church never reopened.

James Curry is a Hastings historic community descendent and chair of ‘Building Remembrance for Reconciliation’ (BT4R), a non-profit organization in Hastings dedicated to using history & the arts to remember, reconcile, and heal.

Panel: Parenting a Child With a Dis/Ability and Transition

submitted by madrids@augsburg.edu

We currently observe a rise in new types and uses of the classification of people with dis/abilities, especially targeting and marginalizing individuals at the transition stage. Othering and problem-categorization are characteristics across educational settings and practices. They are intertwined in policy, administration, evidence-based practices, and transition. They are built into pragmatically adopted social perceptions and marginalized procedures. They are taken up in everyday life to handle self and others, in ever-new rounds of medicalization, and generally as self-presentations in daily life, including career opportunities. This implicates and challenges special education as well as other human sciences.

Join us for a rich and meaningful conversation on individuals with dis/abilities’ rights, transition options, dreams, and hopes about the future.

In-person and online options available.

Presenters
Yvonne Moreno, PhD.
Gail Gale, PhD

Education Minnesota “Degrees, Not Debt” Today, 5pm

submitted by lloydr@augsburg.edu

Thursday, October 13, 5 to 6 pm, Sverdrup 2.

Education Minnesota will be on campus to help you learn about your student debt forgiveness options — including the latest on President Biden’s debt relief announcement of up to $20,000 — in their “Degrees, Not Debt” seminar.

Student debt is no longer just a burden—it’s become a barrier to the American Dream. Minnesota ranks fifth in the nation for student debt, with the average student debt load at $30,894 for state college students. Education Minnesota, the state teachers’ union, wants to help relieve your debt burden and make college more affordable and accessible to all. This is particularly important for our public schools. If teaching becomes an unaffordable profession, it will become even more difficult to attract and retain high-quality educators.
