SUMMARY:Youth Demand Action on Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:Youth Demand Action on Climate Change \nA World Environment Day Event \nSponsored by the Windham World Affairs Council \nDuring their lifetimes\, young people aged 12-21 have experienced five of the hottest years ever recorded. Facing the extremes of climate change has resulted in rising acts of activism across the country. 12-year-old Haven Coleman confronted a Colorado Congressman at a town hall over his denial of the climate change problem. Alexandria Villasenor (13) has sat in front of the UN building in New York City every Friday since December 2018. In Minneapolis\, Isra Hirsi (16) began working with iMatter and Minnesota Can’t Wait\, two climate advocacy organizations. This youth activism and others have become known in the Twittersphere as part of the wider youth-based climate movement called #FridaysforFuture. Inspired by Greta Thunberg\, a 15-year-old (now 16) who sat every Friday on the steps of the Swedish parliament to protest the government’s inaction on climate change\, youth movements have been mushrooming around the world. \nTo understand the impact and interest of youth in our neighborhoods\, backyards\, and school grounds in the areas around Brattleboro\, the Windham World Affairs Council invites youth activists who have been making their own waves in their communities\, schools\, and legislatures in the spirit of climate justice and activism. \nWe will hear from these young people\, be inspired by their activism and ideas\, and then work together to design recommendations and plans to support these youth in their activism. The event\, which will begin with local youth leaders discussing their work and end with small group engagements and discussions\, will be facilitated by Julie Snorek and Lissa Weinmann. \nDr. Julie Snorek is a Research Associate in the Environmental Studies Department of Dartmouth College. As a social ecologist\, Julie Snorek has been developing an intricate understanding of social\, ecological\, and political transitions in the Sahel and Sahara where she has lived and worked for  over twelve years with rural\, nomadic and semi-nomadic societies. Throughout her research\, Snorek strives to engage in a co-production of knowledge and to support and enhance practices of sustainability. She received her Ph.D from the Autonomous University of Barcelona in 2016 and her M.S. from SIT Graduate Institute in 2010.

SUMMARY:"COBRA" Taught by Anna Patton
DESCRIPTION:A participatory\, improvisatory musical game-piece created by John Zorn. For instrumentalists and vocalists who are willing to make stuff up\, listen\, and pay attention. \nCobra is a fun\, fast-paced musical(-ish) game-piece by John Zorn. It’s structure might remind you more of a theater improv game than a piece of music. The musical/sonic material is entirely improvised and different in every iteration of the game. Participants signal a prompter to give the ensemble various cues written on cards so that all the improvisers can momentarily take control of the shape of the piece. Transitions can be quite fast and comically abrupt. Cobra is a great structure for working on decisiveness and commitment in improvisation\, and for exploring urges that may be inappropriate in politely democratic jam sessions. \nParticipants may come to whichever date or dates they can make\, though there will probably be less teaching of the game at later dates and they may need to watch and listen for a while before jumping in. \nThere is no fee\, but there will be a donation jar for anyone moved to contribute for the teaching and the use of the space. \nQuestions? anna@annapatton.com
