Dear Friends,
This Friday, our region-wide Counter Memories series comes home to the DC-Baltimore region with a conversation between Ada Pinkston and Angela N. Carroll. Utilizing Pennsylvania Avenue in Baltimore, Maryland – an energetic hub of African-American arts, culture, and entertainment that featured prominently in the Jim Crow era Green Book, which mapped out safe spaces for Black people traveling throughout the American south – Pinkston and Carroll will examine the contrast between the cultural vibrancy of Baltimore's Black neighborhoods, and the struggles they face today.
Are you a documentary buff? If so, our German Film Office colleagues in New York City have rolled out an incredible opportunity for you to stream cost-free eight different German documentaries until March 2.
Throughout March, our New York colleagues are also facilitating a reading and discussion group surrounding the 50th anniversary of If They Come in the Morning: Voice of Resistance by Angela Davis. Details on registration and schedule are further below.
Our language program colleagues are working hard to keep virtual German courses available to the community during continued distance-learning and distance-working – check out our selection of March courses today! If you're a K-12 student or parent, you may also be interested in joining the Digital Kinderuniversity in celebrating Mother Language Day on February 21, and taking part in an Our Sustainable Future project this spring.
