The installation that was erected in the PUB lobby in honor of #BlackLivesMatter and #TDOR will be on display until the end of Fall quarter. If you were unable to attend either Transgender Day of Remembrance event, please take the time to stop by the lobby and view the installation, which is a moving portrayal of the violence faced by this marginalized community.

Please join Project Pride and the Arts and Entertainment Board on Wed., Nov. 18 in the main lobby of the PUB at 12:30 p.m. to commemorate Transgender Day of Remembrance and acknowledge that Black Trans Women are one of the most targeted groups in the United States.
According to BlackLivesMatter, the average life expectancy for Black Trans Women is 35 years. Please see this article for details of the high number of Black Trans Women killed so far in 2015.
Despite the recent epidemic of violence against Trans people in general, and Black Trans Women in particular, violent targeting of the trans community has been met with silence and erasure.
End the silence. Join us on Wed., Nov. 18 at 12:30 p.m. in the PUB lobby.
The week of Nov. 14-20 is Transgender Awareness Week. Click here to learn more about what it means to be Transgender and click here to see how you can help be an ally to the Transgender community.

The student sign up for Community Read is now live on the SLC web page here.
Don’t know what Community Read is? Read on:
Each year a new book is selected for our Community Book Read. Together we share our impressions and ideas. Weekly analyses of the text are led by a variety of college volunteers, bringing with them their unique backgrounds, expertise and perspectives. This keeps the discussion fresh, lively and relevant.
This year’s book is Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction Stories from Social Justice Movements. Octavia’s Brood is a collection of social justice-themed science fiction stories that feature things like time travel, shape shifting, dystopian worlds, re-imaginings of “model minorities” and the possibilities of using visionary fiction to develop new ideas of future worlds. The works are inspired by the writings of Octavia Butler, an award-winning science fiction writer (Kindred, Parable of the Sower, and Lilith’s Brood) who lived in Lake Forest Park before her death in 2006.
The entire campus community is invited to read and discuss the stories inside Octavia’s Brood during winter quarter. Students will be able to receive a FREE copy of the book after signing up!
You can explore the book, its message and its authors at the library’s learning guide here.
You can find more information and a link to sign up on the SLC web page and you can also sign up to join the read here.

Princess Angeline.
Shoreline Community College’s First Nations Club talks back to Columbus on Mon., Oct. 12, with a day of events celebrating Indigenous People’s Day. Students, staff and faculty are invited to join a day of events that challenge non-Native ideas of Indianness and explore contemporary—and nearby—issues of Makah whaling and federal recognition of the Duwamish people. All events are free.
Matika Wilbur: Project 562’s Quest for Real Indians – 9:30 a.m., PUB Quiet Dining Room (9208)
Pesented by Howie Echo-Hawk (Pawnee and Athabaskan), First Nations’ Club, Shoreline Community College. Video and discussion of Wilbur’s (Swinomish and Tulalip) work in challenging visual and cultural images of contemporary Native Americans. Click here more information on Project 562.
Modern Makah Whaling and the Lens of History – 10:30 a.m., PUB Quiet Dining Room (9208)
Presented by Joshua Reid (Snohomish), Ph.D, Departments of History and American Indian Studies, University of Washington. Reid will talk about how history helps us better understand why whaling remains important to Makahs today. It draws from his book, The Sea Is My Country: The Maritime World of the Makahs.
Princess Angeline, film – 11:30 a.m., PUB Quiet Dining Room (9208)
Co-sponsored by Project Pride – This film from independent indigenous filmmaker Sandra Johnson Osawa (Makah) and her partner Yasu Osawa uses the story of Chief Seattle’s oldest daughter—Princess Angeline or Kikisebloo—to explore the history of the Duwamish people and their so-far fruitless quest for federal recognition.
Smoke Signals, movie – 12:30–2:30 p.m., PUB Room 9202
Written, directed, co-produced and mostly acted by American Indians, Smoke Signalsis a road movie within an indigenous flair. With a screenplay written by Sherman Alexi (Spokane-Coeur d’Alene), the movie pokes fun at the way Native Americans are stereotypically imagined in America today and challenges non-Indian viewers to come to terms with Native American experiences and perspectives. Film will be followed with Native comedy shorts and discussion.
