SUMMARY:Pang!
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Pang! is an evening of three short plays based on the oral histories of families living with hunger in Los Angeles CA\, Miami FL and Cedar Rapids IA. Artists perform the plays amidst a forest of microphones\, sound effects props and musical instruments\, as if we are a radio theater company performing a live broadcast.   \nPANG!’s scenarios:\n \n1) A single mom and nine children are swindled into foreclosure on their Los Angeles family home of 65 years. \n2) A family makes a harrowing escape from war-torn Burundi and resettles as refugees in Eastern Iowa\, which proves traumatic in its own ways.\n\n3) A 7 year-old boy sews seeds of hope as he fantasizes his way out of a Miami neighborhood besieged by violence and beset by racist politics. \n  \nPang! Performances:  \nOctober 20-21\, 2017 at Legion Arts/CSPS Hall\, Cedar Rapids I \nDecember 1-3\, 2017 at 24th Street Theatre\, Los Angeles CA \nJanuary 26-28\, 2018 at The Light Box at Miami Light Project\, Miami FL \n(CLICK HERE FOR PRINTABLE PDF)

SUMMARY:Film Screening: We Are In It
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 26\, 2017 • 314 Royce Hall • 4 PM \nFilm Screening: “We Are In It” \nBy Yehuda Sharim (Rice University) \n“We Are In It” chronicles the stories and journeys of five Houston residents and their attempt to find refuge in the American metropolis. By combining tales of deportation with everyday defeats and resilience\, the film identifies what lies beneath the surface of migrant and refugee realities and the unsettling need to move towards political and economic security. The film documents their personal archives—poetry and paintings of Baghdad\, film clips of the Burmese diaspora\, songs in Swahili—and their efforts to re-envisage a home amidst experiences of warfare\, hardship\, and alienation. Filmed over a period of two years\, the film not only sheds new light on the political climate of global migration but also speaks to universal human values of compassion and belonging. \nModerator: Todd S. Presner (UCLA) \nRespondent: Ananya Roy (UCLA) \nSponsored by the \nUCLA Alan D. Leve Center for Jewish Studies \nCosponsored by the \nInstitute on Inequality and Democracy at UCLA Luskin \nUCLA Center for the Study of International Migration \nUCLA School of Theater\, Film and Television \nUCLA Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance \n  \nWatch Trailer 1 & Trailer 2 \n \n\nAbout the Director: \n \n\nYehuda Sharim is a scholar\, filmmaker\, and creative director of Houston in Motion: Empowering Houston Migrant and Refugee Communities\, a multi-media project that provides a window into the lives and experiences of refugee communities in Houston. “We are in it” is his directorial debut. \n\n\nDr. Sharim is currently teaching at Rice University\, serving as a Kinder Fellow in the Kinder Institute for Urban Research at Rice University. His other artistic and scholarly work explores connections between art\, poetry\, comparative migration studies\, cultural studies\, and race and ethnic studies. \n\nIn the Press:\n“A Voice for Refugees” – Rice at Large Magazine \n“In Houston\, a filmmaker tries to understand the city’s mélange of refugees” – The Urban Edge \n“A Voice for Houston’s Refugees” – Rice Magazine \n“Migrant Ironies: Migrants Hope for Life Without Limitations in Houston” – The Feminist Wire
