SUMMARY:Uncovering Difficult Truths
DESCRIPTION:Ashland Sunrise Project presents a conversation with Oregon author Sarah L. Sanderson\, Taylor Stewart\, founder of the Oregon Remembrance Project\, and host Tara Houston\, Community and Engagement Manager\, Oregon Shakespeare Festival (OSF). \nSara Sanderson\, author of The Place We Make: Breaking the Legacy of Legalized Hate\, will share her own story of discovering that her ancestors participated in exiling Jacob Vanderpool from Oregon City in 1851 under the exclusion laws that prevented Black people from residing in Oregon. Taylor and Sara will explore what we might gain from uncovering difficult truths\, including difficult truths about what has happened in the past and how we might transform those challenges into opportunities for a new kind of future. \nThere will be an opportunity to buy a copy of Sarah Sanderson’s book at the event\, or in advance from Bloomsbury Books. \nThis program was made possible in part by a grant from Oregon Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities. \nAny views\, findings\, conclusions\, or recommendations expressed in this event\, do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:An Empowering Conversation About Fire\, Climate Change and Community.
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, July 15th\, 6:30 to 8:00 pm PT\, Carpenter Hall (at OSF) \nSpecial Guests: \n \nMarko Bey – Founder & Executive Director Lomakatsi Restoration Project \nBelinda Brown – Tribal Partnerships Director \nCollaborative Forest Restoration: A Win-Win for People and Nature \nIn the face of climate change and the new reality of wildfire in the West\, collaborative\, community-based forest restoration is a proven solution to help protect communities and natural resources. Lomakatsi will share their model for leveraging federal and state agreements with local partnerships to build long-term\, landscape-scale forest and watershed stewardship projects. These agreements can bring millions of federal dollars to help create fire-adapted ecosystems and communities\, while supporting sustainable jobs and local economies. This hands-on stewardship approach enhances wildlife habitat and helps prepare the landscape for beneficial fire. \nElevating Tribal Nations in Restoration Initiatives \nLomakatsi will discuss the importance of meaningful engagement with Tribal Nations and tribal communities\, and how ecological restoration—combined with indigenous fire knowledge—can help promote tribal sovereignty\, support co-management\, and protect cultural beneficial resources. \nThe presentation will include the screening of the 20-minute short film Tribal Hands on the Land\, centered on Lomakatsi’s Tribal Youth Ecological Forestry Training Program. The film explores how collaboration with tribes and tribal communities is setting the stage for the return of cultural fire and building more resilient landscapes and communities. \nAbout Lomakatsi \nFor nearly 30 years\, Ashland-based nonprofit Lomakatsi Restoration Project has partnered with local\, state\, and federal agencies\, Tribal Nations\, nonprofits\, and many others to restore thousands of acres of forests and miles of streams. Through this work\, they advance social equity by layering in education\, tribal partnerships\, and workforce training programs while leading an all hands on deck approach to create more resilient ecosystems and communities. \n  \nIt’s fire season.   \nBe part of the solution.  \nBring your friends and neighbors. \n  \nPartners:  Ashland.News\, OSF and Ashland Together \nWe invite you to subscribe to Ashland.news to keep abreast of what’s happening in our town. \n \n  \n  \n  \n
