SUMMARY:Irene Kai - The Journey

Her work has been shown in galleries in London\, New York\, Los Angeles\, and southern Oregon. She posed for George Segal in 1976 and the sculptures of her image were in the Whitney Museum permanent collection. Irene designed the logo for the Culture of Peace Initiative\, a United Nations Peace Messenger Organization\, and her inspiring image hangs in the United Nations building in New York City. She Co-founded the Ashland Culture of Peace Commission and brought the World Peace Flame to Ashland from Wales. \nlrene’s award-winning books – What Do You See? – an experiential book. The Golden Mountain: Beyond the American Dream has been chosen for course studies in major universities\, an autobiography of four generations of women in her family\, a journey spanning over a hundred years of how their influences shaped her life.

SUMMARY:How Do You Reconcile a Lynching? A Story of Justice and Redemption
DESCRIPTION:The event will focus on the life and legacy of Alonzo Tucker\, Oregon’s most documented African American lynching victim\, and the efforts to seek justice and reconciliation. Stewart will share insights on confronting historical injustices and fostering community healing. \n“This story is not just about reconciliation; it’s about finding a way to heal and foster hope in our communities\,” Stewart explains. “By confronting these painful narratives\, we can begin to foster understanding and pave the way for a more just future.” \nGabi Johnsen\, founder of Grants Pass Remembrance Project (GPRP) and Community Engagement Director of ORP\, will join the discussion. A Q&A session will follow. The Ashland Sunrise Project invites community members\, educators\, and advocates to take part in this conversation on historical justice in Oregon. \nRegister Below \nTaylor Stewart is the Founder and Executive Director of the Oregon Remembrance Project (ORP). He is a lifelong Portlander and graduated from UP in 2018 with a degree in Communication and a Master’s in Social Work from PSU in 2021. Stewart started ORP in 2018 to help communities unearth stories of injustice and engage in the necessary truth telling and repair required to reconcile instances of historical harm. His work connects historical racism to its present-day legacies in order to inspire contemporary racial justice action. In what started as simply a way to memorialize an African American lynching victim named Alonzo Tucker\, Stewart has grown to see the power of reconciliation to rectify further instances of historical injustice. \nGabrielle Johnsen is the Community Engagement Director with Oregon Remembrance Project and a core caretaker of Grants Pass Remembrance (the Sunrise Project in her community of Grants Pass).  She has collaborated with Taylor Stewart since 2020 in the development of the Sunrise Project.  This work embodies much of what she cares about – racial reconciliation\, learning and growing together with neighbors\, and supporting opportunities to see and hear the “others” in our lives and communities!\n  \n\n\n\nDirections and parking \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFROM NORTHBOUND 1-5: \nTake exit 14 and turn left onto Ashland Street/Hwy 66.\nContinue on Ashland Street to Siskiyou Blvd (where all traffic must turn right).\nTake the first left onto Indiana Street.\nThere are free one hour parking spaces behind the Museum.

SUMMARY:Independent Media Week
DESCRIPTION:Ashland Oregon’s 20th annual Independent Media Week showcases a coalition of independent media producers\, local activists and community groups organized around the theme “A well-informed citizenry is a cornerstone of democracy.” \nWe have a full week of events\, trainings and workshops planned. This year we are opening the Rogue River Room to artists and creators to\nshare the work folks are doing right here in our community. \n  \nINDEPENDENT MEDIA WEEK PROCLAMATION \n* An informed citizenry is a cornerstone of democracy. \n* An informed citizenry depends on unrestrained press\, which provides greater access to information\, more points of view and greater diversity of thought and fact. \n* The trend toward the consolidation of media ownership has resulted in journalistic practices that hinder public awareness by excluding or marginalizing minority and dissenting viewpoints.\n* Fewer media voices can result in homogenized messaging and the silencing of many points of view. \n* Democratic principles support the case for more independent media in this country\, not less. \nNOW\, THEREFORE\, I do hereby proclaim the week of April 13-19 as INDEPENDENT MEDIA WEEK and encourage all citizens to seek out and explore the rich diversity of independent media available within\, and to our community. \nMore Info \n

SUMMARY:A.R.T. Wave Fundraiser for Hakiym
DESCRIPTION:Please mark your calendars.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt takes a village! Please sign up to perform\, volunteer\, donate a silent auction or raffle item with this link: Interest Form ART Wave \n\n\nFundraiser to support Brian “Hakiym Sha’ir” Simpson\, a Black father\, firefighter\, community leader\, and poet who was wrongfully incarcerated for defending himself against a racially motivated physical attack while on the job in Josephine County\, Oregon. \nCase Details\nYou may or may not have heard about this case already. Some key details include the aggressor admitted in court to initiating the attack while using racial slurs\, the aggressor was found with drugs in his system (including fentanyl)\, and Hakiym defended himself using no weapons and fleeing the attack (reporting to his boss) as witnessed by other firefighters. In a wildly unjust trial with an all white jury and a judge with a history of overturned convictions\, Hakiym was sentenced to up to 6 years in prison at Snake River Correctional Institution (a rural prison that is notorious for violence\, frigid temperatures\, and inadequate nutrition). He has four young boys. He has spent his life as a community leader transforming lives and inspiring youth. He was recognized by the late great Rosa Parks for his tireless efforts in advocating for change. For more information and to sign the petition to Governor Tina Kotek\, please visit the J4H webpage on B.A.S.E.’s website \nBenefit Show & Party Details:A.R.T. Wave (Amazing Revolutionary Transformation) \nSaturday\, April 5th\, 2025 6pm-9pm at the Bellview Grange in Ashland (1050 Tolman Creek Rd) and live-streamed online. \nThis is an evening of community coming together\, sharing our talents and resources\, to raise funds and awareness for Hakiym and his campaign (that’s determined to see him fully exonerated and reunited with his family). Hakiym’s story will be shared by friends and family\, as well as his winning poetry. Local poets\, including the amazing Manya Yana Campos\, and local musicians (including Los Mapaches\, an outstanding cumbia band) will share their talents. Donations from supportive local businesses\, artists\, and community members (including Rise Up! Artisan Bread\, The English Lavender Farm\, Luna Mexican Cuisine and so many more)\, will be both auctioned and bundled into raffle baskets. Ways to get involved in Hakiym’s campaign as well as petitions to sign will also be available. \nRSVP on Eventbrite– Free with suggested sliding scale donation. \nHakiym provided the name for the event and is contributing to several aspects in ways that he can! Pictures of him on the attached flyer from left to right are of Hakiym reciting spoken word\, a mural dedicated to him in his hometown of downtown Cincinnati\, and in firefighter gear in Oregon. \nWays to Contribute to A.R.T. Wave: \n\nVolunteering – set-up and take down of event\, running sections of the event\, tech support\, etc.\nPerforming – We are looking for poets and musicians to share their talents live at the show (about 5-20 minute long performances). BIPOC performers will be prioritized. We are also planning a second event (a virtual benefit concert for a later date)\, so please indicate if you are interested in staying involved for that! Hakiym is a part of our local poetry scene\, so it would be especially meaningful to have overwhelming support from Southern Oregon’s creative arts community!\nSilent Auction & Raffle – We are asking for your support in the form of donated items for the auction and raffle. We envision larger items for a silent auction\, and smaller items to be bundled into raffle baskets. Your contribution\, whether a piece of art\, service\, gift certificate\, or any item of value would be greatly appreciated. All donations are needed and welcome.\nDonating Food or Drink – We want to sell food and drink (alcoholic and nonalcoholic) at the event as part of the fundraiser\, and are looking for donations so that all of the proceeds can go directly to the cause. Let us know if you or your business have anything you can donate in quantities large enough for 100-200 people.\n\nPlease fill out the A.R.T. Wave Interest Form to let us know how you’d like to contribute! All volunteers\, performers\, and donors will be honored and appropriately recognized for your support in helping to raise funds for Hakiym in his fight for freedom and against racial injustice. \nWe kindly ask that all responses be made as soon as possible so that we have enough time to work your contribution into the event. Deadline for performers and food is 3/22. Deadline for auction & raffle donations is 3/29. \nWhat will the raised funds be used for? \nAll funds raised will go to Hakiym’s support fund\, which will be used to support Hakiym’s survival while fighting unjust conviction and imprisonment. Everything in prison costs money– from personal hygiene items\, warm clothing\, extra food and phone calls and postage to stay in touch with his kids. With direction from Hakiym and his chosen support team\, funds may also be used to support travel and lodging for visiting family and supporters\, legal costs\, and other incidental costs that support the campaign to Free Hakiym. When Hakiym is free\, any left over funds will be used to support him and his family in recovering from the financial impacts of incarceration. \nDonate now on Venmo through @siskiyoumutualaid or on PayPal through siskiyoumutualaid@gmail.com Please include “Justice 4 Hakiym” in the memo. All donations are tax-deductible. \nThank you \nPlease share this info far and wide! Questions about A.R.T. Wave? Please reach out to j4hbenefit@gmail.com \nTo get involved in the Justice for Hakiym campaign and to stay updated on all the progress (like another large community meeting in Grants Pass on 4/12\, an upcoming Prayer Walk in May\, the upcoming Virtual Benefit Concert\, and more) please reach out to justiceforhakiym@gmail.com as there are so many needs for support. Hakiym’s appeal lawyer said that she moved his case to the top of her list based on community involvement! \n\n\n“…Thank you for bringing awareness to my unfortunate situation … May your kindness\, compassion\, and creativity help shine light\, chasing the darkness and ugliness of oppression away…Let’s get wavy! Let this not be a fleeting meeting but a continuation of Amazing Revolutionary Transformation.” \n\n\n\n\n  – Hakiym Sha’ir
