In partnership with the Chemistry Department and the Center for Intercultural Learning and Inclusion, with funding from the Barbara J Stahl Fellow Grant, DIIF Grant and the Gregory J Grappone Humanities Institute, the Community Cinema Series highlights Diversity and Inclusion in Stem with this free screening.

Secret Agents of the Underground Railroad is a revealing scientific exploration of how a Niagara Falls hotel, The Cataract House, became the focal point for a 19th century North American Black Resistance movement. Host Anthony Morgan meets a team of archaeologists who are working to recover parts of the hotel's foundation. In doing so, they unearth stories about how the hotel's head waiter, John Morrison, and his seemingly innocuous wait staff covertly orchestrated Freedom Seekers' escapes to freedom. What’s true of every archaeological dig is that below the surface, there is always more than meets the eye; and the dig at the once-renowned Cataract House is no exception

Following the screening, an engaging panel Q&A, moderated by Professor Mary Kate Donais will feature key members of the documentary team.

Panel guests:

• Saladin Allah, Director of Community Engagement at the Niagara Falls Underground Railroad Heritage Center
• Dr. Douglas Perrelli, Director of Archaeological Survey, SUNY Buffalo

Dr. Ball is the William H. Payne Collegiate Professor of Education at the University of Michigan, an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor, and
the founding director of TeachingWorks.

Her talk will examine the powerful role that teaching plays in reproducing injustice, but how it also can serve to be a powerful lever for advancing a just society. Connections will be drawn between macro-level historical, sociopolitical, and societal systems and micro-level practices that comprise the everyday work of teaching. We will ground our explorations in the context of elementary mathematics teaching and will analyze the discretionary spaces inherent in practice and how these can be used to disrupt patterns of inequity and marginalization. Implications for other subjects
will be highlighted as well

This photography exhibition will display the assignments and climate change research of students from the Biology department’s Conversation Management and Policy course. Generally, most think of climate change and its effects as being far away or as a thing that will starve the polar bears, but climate change happens much closer to home. Students’ photographs capture what climate change looks like to them and how it is affecting their lives.
