"How Long Til' Black Futures Month?"
Event Date: Monday, February 8, 2021 - 12:00pm to Tuesday, February 9, 2021 - 12:45pm Event Details: Black History Month Speaker Series 2
Live on OState TV • 12p
Hosted by the Center for Africana Studies and the Office of Multicultural Affairs
"How Long Til' Black Futures Month?" will be presented by Andrew R. Belton, Ph.D. Dr. Belton's presentation will make explicit certain connections between hip hop's cultural response to racial capitalism and the summer 2020 Black Lives Matter protests as part of a long Black musical history and movement towards social justice.
Dr. Belton is an assistant professor of Black diasporic literature and culture in the Department of English at Oklahoma State University. His current book project, Hip Hop Illiterate: Black Hermeneutics and the Limits of an Anti-Black World, centers the hip hop emcee as a cultural figure that updates the historic struggles to care for and protect Black Life for the twenty-first century and beyond. His writing has appeared in academic journals such as PMLA, with non-academic interests including experimental filmmaking and beat production.
The presentation title is taken from the N.K. Jemisin short story collection of a slightly different/same name.

Black Men in White Coats Documentary Screening
Event Date: Friday, February 12, 2021 - 12:00pm to Saturday, February 13, 2021 - 1:45pm Event Details: The OSU-CHS Office of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion is hosting a screening of the feature-length documentary Black Men in White Coats. A discussion facilitated by Assistant Dean of Diversity Brenda Davidson and student doctor Chris McNeil will follow the documentary.
This event is free and open to the public. Join at https://zoom.us/j/7338085091
About the Film:
Less black men applied to medical school in 2014 than in 1978 and black men have the lowest life expectancy in the United States. With only 2% of American doctors being black men, this comes as no surprise. This documentary dissects the systemic barriers preventing black men from becoming medical doctors and the consequences on society at large.
Health care accounts for nearly 20% of the United State’s GDP and a significant portion of that is driven by disparities in a system that lacks diverse physicians. What if we had a medical workforce that actually reflected our patient population? What challenges do our black boys face? Who are their role models? Why is it easier to visualize a black man in an orange jumpsuit than it is in a white coat? What’s happening in society that more black women are becoming doctors while black men are stagnant? WHOSE FAULT IS IT? It’s time to end this CRISIS and get more BLACK MEN IN WHITE COATS?

OSF provides a highly customizable user interface, allowing users to create modules for housing data, research materials, communication, analysis files, and anything else they need to keep the ability to upload any file type under 5GB, with automatic, built-in version control for all files integration with tools researchers already use, such as Dropbox, Google Drive, and GitHub the means to add contributors with various levels of read/write permissions.

Flash Prose Workshop
Event Date: Monday, January 25, 2021 - 7:00pm to Tuesday, January 26, 2021 - 8:45pm Event Details: Jan. 25
Flash Prose | Led by Cassidy McCants
6-week workshops, $225 to register
A piece of flash fiction is a story stripped down to its essence, usually consisting of no more than 1,000 words. In this generative course, we’ll study contemporary examples of flash fiction and nonfiction, and students will respond to writing prompts in order to create their own original flash prose pieces. We’ll practice saying more with fewer words; we’ll explore language and discover ways to push it to its greatest potential. By the end of the course, students should feel comfortable reading and responding to flash fiction. I also hope we’ll create a generous, nurturing space in which students feel eager to share their work. This will be a place for experimentation and practice.

Historically, a Chautauqua was an educational gathering held on the prairies of the U.S. heartland during the turn of the century. The annual all-day OSU Chautauqua retains this spirit by gathering researchers, service providers, and policy makers around a series of research presentations centered on a common theme. The ultimate goal of the Chautauqua conference is to foster a translational approach within the study of resilience, such that practical applications for family health and well-being can be developed from basic resilience research.

How to Start Your Novel Workshop
Event Date: Saturday, February 27, 2021 - 2:00pm to 4:30pm Event Details: Feb. 27
How to Start Your Novel | Led by Nate Knapp
1-day workshop, $30 to register
The goal of this workshop is simple—getting you going on a novel that keeps going. Starting, some say, is the easy part. But starting a novel that you'll actually finish is a whole other kettle of fish, one that retains an air of mystery even to well-published veterans of the art. We'll try to peer into that mystery in this two day course, examining a number of particularly successful novel openings, both past and present, as well as discussing strategies for getting oneself started (sometimes starting *is* the hard part!), and then working on a number of exercises. Hopefully, by the end, students will have the opening of their first novel.

About the instructor: Nathan Knapp's writing has appeared in The Times Literary Supplement, 3:AM Magazine, Music & Literature, The Brooklyn Rail, Tin House, and elsewhere. He holds an MFA from Oklahoma State.

Deliberately Forgetting the Destruction of Dreams: Documenting the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921
Event Date: Tuesday, February 23, 2021 - 6:00pm to Wednesday, February 24, 2021 - 6:45pm Event Details: Presented by the University of South Florida Humanities Institute
A growing and prosperous African-American community had their aspirations and dreams destroyed on the night of May 31st 1921 when a newspaper article and rumors incited one of the worst incidents of racial violence in this nation’s history. Deliberate efforts to suppress the truth of these events kept Tulsa Oklahoma out of the history books for decades and members of the community either silenced or unaware. What happened that night? Why have so few heard about this history? What happened to the dreams destroyed? Where are the records and documents that record this history? 100 years later, what questions still go unanswered?
Join us Feb. 23 to explore the history of Black Wall Street, The Tulsa Race Massacre, the aftermath, the fear that silenced a generation and the efforts to document, preserve and provide access to surviving documents and eyewitness accounts. Guest Speaker: Lynn Wallace, Library Director, Oklahoma State University-Tulsa.
This event is part of a series called, "Recovering Erased History." Find out more by visiting humanities-institute.usf.edu.
This event is FREE and open to students, faculty & staff, and the public.

Virtual Workshop | Data Bytes - Better Data Management
Wednesday, Feb. 24, 2021

Research data is a valuable resource. Careful management practices reduce mistakes, improve research reproducibility and facilitate publishing and sharing data. Better practices for different phases of the research data cycle will be discussed including planning for data collection, file management, data security, options for data storage during the project and long term storage of data for sharing after the project is complete. Planning for data management is also a critical part of developing a written data management plan, or DMP, for funding proposals. Please join us and learn these important skills in order to get your research project off to a great start.
Please note this is an online event. The online event URL will be sent to you in an email confirming your registration. Register at https://okstate.libcal.com/event/7474823.
