SUMMARY:Radical Respect: How to Work Together Better
DESCRIPTION:How we can recognize\, attack\, and eliminate workplace injustice―and transform our careers and organizations in the process? We―all of us―consistently exclude\, underestimate\, and underutilize huge numbers of people in the workforce even as we include\, overestimate\, and promote others\, often beyond their level of competence. Not only is this immoral and unjust\, but it’s also bad for business. Radical Respect is the solution. \nRadical Respect: How to Work Together Better is Kim Scott’s new book\, revealing a practical framework for both respecting everyone’s individuality and collaborating effectively. This is the essential guide leaders and their employees need to create more just workplaces and establish new norms of collaboration and respect. \nScott is the co-founder of Radical Candor\, a company to help leaders build more radically candid organizations. She is the author of the New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller Radical Candor: Be a Kickass Boss Without Losing Your Humanity. She was a CEO coach at Dropbox\, Qualtrics\, Twitter\, and other tech companies. She was a member of the faculty at Apple University and before that led AdSense\, YouTube\, and DoubleClick teams at Google. \nScott will be in conversation with Heidi Stevens\, Director of External Affairs for the University of Chicago’s TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health\, and creative director for Parent Nation\, an initiative of the TMW Center. Prior to joining TMW\, Stevens worked at the Chicago Tribune for 23 years\, where she wrote a daily column called “Balancing Act.” She maintains a weekly nationally syndicated column. Stevens also serves as a FAN board member. \nThis event suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:Somehow: Thoughts on Love
DESCRIPTION:In Somehow: Thoughts on Love\, beloved bestselling author Anne Lamott explores the transformative power that love has in our lives: how it surprises us\, forces us to confront uncomfortable truths\, reminds us of our humanity\, and guides us forward. “Love just won’t be pinned down\,” she says. “It is in our very atmosphere” and lies at the heart of who we are. We are\, Lamott says\, creatures of love. \nIn each chapter of Somehow\, Lamott refracts all the colors of the spectrum. She explores the unexpected love for a partner later in life. The bruised (and bruising) love for a child who disappoints\, even frightens. The sustaining love among a group of sinners\, for a community in transition\, in the wider world. The lessons she underscores are that love enlightens as it educates\, comforts as it energizes\, sustains as it surprises. \nLamott is the author of multiple New York Times bestsellers\, including Dusk\, Night\, Dawn; Almost Everything; Hallelujah Anyway; Small Victories; Stitches; Help\, Thanks\, Wow; Some Assembly Required; Grace (Eventually); Plan B; and Traveling Mercies\, as well as several novels. She is a past recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and an inductee to the California Hall of Fame. \nLamott will be in conversation with Heidi Stevens\, Director of External Affairs for the University of Chicago’s TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health\, and creative director for Parent Nation\, an initiative of the TMW Center. Prior to joining TMW\, Stevens worked at the Chicago Tribune for 23 years\, where she wrote a daily column called “Balancing Act.” She maintains a weekly nationally syndicated column. Stevens also serves as a FAN board member. \nThis event is suitable for youth 12+. It will be recorded but not live streamed and will be available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel. \nBONUS BOOK GIVEAWAY of Somehow: Thoughts on Love at the event\, while supplies last. No registration required.

SUMMARY:We Are the Leaders We Have Been Looking For
DESCRIPTION:We are more than the circumstances of our lives\, and what we do matters. In We Are the Leaders We Have Been Looking For\, Eddie S. Glaude Jr.\, Ph.D.\, one of the nation’s preeminent scholars and a New York Times bestselling author\, makes the case that the hard work of becoming a better person should be a critical feature of Black politics. Through virtuoso interpretations of Martin Luther King\, Jr.\, Malcolm X\, and Ella Baker\, Dr. Glaude shows how ordinary people have the capacity to be the heroes that our democracy so desperately requires\, rather than outsourcing their needs to leaders who purportedly represent them. \nThe book begins with Dr. Glaude’s unease with the Obama years. He felt then\, and does even more urgently now\, that the excitement around the Obama presidency had become a disciplining tool to narrow legitimate forms of Black political dissent. This narrowing continues to undermine the well-being of Black communities. In response\, Dr. Glaude guides us away from enthusiastic reliance on elected leaders and full surrender to a belief in unchanging political structures. He weaves anecdotes about his own evolving views on Black politics together with the writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson\, John Dewey\, Sheldon Wolin\, Toni Morrison\, James Baldwin\, and Ralph Ellison. \nDr. Glaude (FAN ’20) is the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor at Princeton University and the author of several books\, including Democracy in Black and the New York Times bestseller Begin Again: James Baldwin’s America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own\, winner of the Harriet Beecher Stowe Book Prize. \nDr. Glaude will be in conversation with Lisa L. Moore\, Ph.D.\, LICSW\, Senior Lecturer and Director of the Master’s Program in Social Work\, Social Policy\, and Social Service Administration at the University of Chicago Crown Family School of Social Work\, Policy\, and Practice. She has worked in higher education for over 25 years as an administrator and faculty member.

SUMMARY:Kaia String Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Kaia String Quartet: \nFrom the tango of the Rio de la Plata to the string quartets of Silvestre Revueltas\, the KAIA String Quartet is an ensemble devoted to promoting the rich and colorful music of Latin America. \nThe Quartet plays an active role in Chicago’s music scene and has performed at the Chicago Latino Music Festival\, the Ear Taxi Festival\, and Chamber Music on the Fox. In 2017\, KAIA was the first ensemble in residence at Chicago’s classical radio station\, WFMT. \nCelebrated by Downbeat magazine for its ability to “beautifully blur the lines between jazz\, classical\, Latin and world music” KAIA’s album collaboration with Fareed Haque was chosen by Chicago Tribune’s Howard Reich as one of the top ten classical recordings of 2018. Their album\, Sureño\, explores the music and relationship of Argentinian composers Astor Piazzolla and José Bragato. The latest recording project released in 2020 includes a collaboration with jazz pianist Ryan Cohan in his work Originations.\nKAIA is deeply devoted to music education. They are teaching artists for Ravinia’s Reach*Teach*Play program and for the International Music Foundation’s Live Music Now program. KAIA founded DePaul University’s Community Music Division chamber program where they inspire the next generation of performers. \nFriday night concert timeline / Concessions for sale\, including beer & wine \n7:00-8:15 PM concert (no intermission)\n8:15-8:45 PM conversation with artists \nPainter by: Ken Reif \n“The truth will set you free.” For me that truth is in my artwork. Turning two dimensional surfaces into compositions that evoke emotion. Painting and the instruction I have received has changed the way I view the world. I am set free every time I stand at the easel. I am set free when I look through the Artist eye. I am set free to create. \nAt an early age I formed a deep respect for nature\, a respect I transfer to canvas. I am also a musician and my love of music compels me to paint portraits of musicians too.  I begin the process with priming the surface black then using an impressionist palette I create my work. Capturing through the Artist eye vibrant colors which evokes emotion\, causing the viewer to pause\, to think and to enjoy in the now.\nI consider my work to be “Renewable Energy”. The viewer is renewed with each viewing\, much like listening to your favorite music. \n     \nThis is part of the Rendezvous Arts Series
