SUMMARY:Film Screening and Conversation with Director Hao Wu: 76 Days
DESCRIPTION:Set in the early days of the COVID-19 outbreak\, this raw and intimate documentary captures the struggles and human resilience in the battle to survive the pandemic in Wuhan\, China. On January 23rd\, 2020\, China locked down Wuhan\, a city of 11 million\, to combat the emerging COVID-19 outbreak. Set deep inside the frontlines of the crisis in four hospitals\, 76 DAYS tells indelible human stories at the center of this pandemic—from a woman begging in vain to bid a final farewell to her father\, a grandpa with dementia searching for his way home\, a couple anxious to meet their newborn\, to a nurse determined to return personal items to families of the deceased. These raw and intimate stories bear witness to the death and rebirth of a city under a 76-day lockdown\, and to the human resilience that persists in times of profound tragedy. After the screening\, stay for a conversation with Director Hao Wu moderated by our film scholar Karen Ma. The documentary was the winner of 2021 Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Award for Exceptional Merit in Documentary Filmmaking and was shortlisted for the 93rd Academy Awards.

SUMMARY:She He Me
DESCRIPTION:She He Me is the first Arab transgender play. It follows the true stories of three Arab characters who challenge gender norms. Randa is an Algerian trans woman who is expelled under the threat of death from her homeland because of her LGBT activism there. Omar is a Jordanian non-binary person\, who\, rather than body dysphoria\, suffers social dysphoria when it comes to the strict codes of masculinity imposed and expected of them by both the heterosexual and gay community around them. Rok is a Lebanese trans man. His main challenge is convincing his very conservative religious mother that her daughter is actually a boy. Through humor and horror\, the three characters come up against the state\, society\, and family\, but also themselves.

SUMMARY:Lafayette: A Hero's Return Preview Reception
DESCRIPTION:Opening preview reception\, lecture\, and optional dinner for upcoming special exhibition\, Lafayette: A Hero’s Return\, opening to the public on June 25. Marquis de Lafayette\, a young\, wealthy French aristocrat\, volunteered for and later led the Continental Army to victory with General George Washington during the American Revolutionary War. Before his death in 1834\, Lafayette returned to the United States in 1824 as the last living general from the War. His visit not only helped President James Monroe celebrate the nation’s 50th anniversary\, but also reignite its patriotism. He was welcomed with great fondness and fanfare by Americans in each of the then 24 states he visited over 13 months\, especially in New York.
