SUMMARY:Rasanblaj as Spirit Turn: Gina Athena Ulysse in Conversation with Jennifer González
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a conversation between Gina Athena Ulysse and Jennifer González\, discussing Ulysse’s solo exhibition Redwoods Rasanblaj: Origins & Disentanglements. \nThe internationally-lauded work of humanities professor Gina Athena Ulysse is on view at the IAS as an inaugural Faculty Spotlight Exhibition.

SUMMARY:Who Can I Run To?\, by Alyssa Windom—2026 Dharma Grace Creative Writing Award and Theatrical Production
DESCRIPTION:Through their belief in Ifá and the divine\, three generations of women grow their relationships with each other and navigate living within their African diasporic identities in undergraduate student Alyssa Windom‘s award-winning script\, Who Can I Run To?
