SUMMARY:Save Soil Social Justice Speaker Lunch
DESCRIPTION:FUUSN’s Social Justice Speakers Task Force invites you to a discussion with Greg Maslowe\, the Manager of the Newton Community Farm\, and Prathyusha Dasari\, from Save Soil\, on Sunday\, March 1\, from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. at FUUSN\, Alliance Room -1326 Washington Street\, West Newton\, MA 02465.\nNewton Community Farm has been farmed continuously for over 350 years. Despite this long history of agricultural use\, the farm’s soil is a thriving biome with high levels of organic matter. Our goal\, as the current users of this land\, is to ensure that it will remain fertile and productive for future generations and a beneficial habitat for the abundant more-than-human life in this area. What techniques does NCF use to ensure these goals? How do these relate to contemporary notions such as regenerative agriculture? And what can you do to enhance the soil health of your own home or garden?\nPrathyusha Dasari\, a volunteer with the Save Soil movement\, will introduce this global initiative dedicated to addressing the growing soil crisis. Save Soil unites people around the world to advocate for soil health and supports leaders of all nations in advancing policies that increase organic matter in agricultural soils. Agricultural soil degradation contributes to an estimated 40% of global warming\, and by 2045\, we may face 40% less food to sustain a projected population of 9.2 billion people. What is the current state of soil worldwide? What has Save Soil accomplished so far—and what can you do to help? SaveSoil.org\nA light lunch will be served.\nThe Social Justice Speakers Task Force is part of FUUSN’s Social Justice Council\, which coordinates our congregation’s efforts to put faith into action through social justice work in our communities and beyond. For more information about FUUSN’s Social Justice Council and to R.S.V.P. to this event\, use this link. First Unitarian Universalist Society in Newton (FUUSN) is a congregation with liberal and progressive theology.

SUMMARY:Bringing it Home with Brescianello: Concerti a tre from the Stuttgart Court
DESCRIPTION:Newton Baroque presents music of the Stuttgart Court.\nGiuseppe Antonio Brescianello (ca. 1690 to 1758) grew up in Bologna and spent much of his career at the courts of Munich and Stuttgart. His Concerti a tre are richly imaginative trio sonatas that combine the intimacy of chamber music with the brilliance of concerto-style violin writing. Each work functions like a concerto for two violins\, unfolding without the support of a full orchestra. \nLike many Italian musicians who were recruited to German courts in the eighteenth century\, Brescianello is not widely known today. In his own time\, however\, he was highly respected\, particularly for his violin concertos. These works offer a vivid glimpse into the cosmopolitan musical life of the German courts and showcase a distinctive voice at the crossroads of Italian virtuosity and German refinement. \nMore information available at https://www.newtonbaroque.org/

SUMMARY:SHINE mural project
DESCRIPTION:SHINE Mural project for Newton middle and high school artists \nNewton Community Events & Programs (formerly Newton Cultural Development) is once again offering student artists a chance to “shine” through our SHINE mural project. The full details are on our website here\, and here are the important bullet points: \n– Artists paint a 6’x3′ plywood panel that is later placed at a highly visible outdoor location in Newton\n– They are professional public artists on this project\, earning a stipend of $200 (to include their purchase of paint supplies)\n– The murals must represent their interpretation of the theme: America at 250\n– The link to apply is here and the deadline to apply is this Friday\, February 27 (samples needed by the following Friday) \nThe students who have participated in this project the last three years have offered very different perspectives on our SHINE theme\, all of them well thought out and wonderfully executed. The students gain great experience planning and implementing a public art project and working on schedule.

SUMMARY:The US\, Irish America\, & the Irish Peace Process: Preliminary Reflections\, Observations & Recollections
DESCRIPTION:If the realist theories of international relations were correct\, there would have been little or no sustained U.S. governmental involvement in the Irish peace process in the 1990s and beyond. Yet history tells a different story. What explains the enduring role of Irish America in shaping U.S. policy toward Irish nationalism\, particularly in relation to Northern Ireland? How has that influence evolved over time\, and what does the future hold? Is the familiar narrative of a “vanishing” Irish and Irish-American presence in U.S. politics truly plausible? \nIreland’s relationship with the United States has long rested on ancestral ties\, shared democratic values\, and the influence of a powerful diaspora. Economic connections between the two counties are substantial\, and U.S. political and economic support has been critical in securing and sustaining peace in Northern Ireland. \nIn this Irish Institute lecture\, Brendan O’Leary\, Lauder Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania\, examines the political relationships linking Ireland\, Irish America\, and the United States\, with particular attention to the Northern Ireland peace process and the sources of sustained American engagement. All are welcome\, but registration is required.

SUMMARY:Newton History Series: The Troubled History of Race and Public Education in Massachusetts
DESCRIPTION:Many of us learn about school desegregation in the context of the mid-twentieth-century South: Brown v. Board of Education\, Ruby Bridges\, and the Little Rock Nine. Yet a century before that\, young Black women in Massachusetts led the fight for equal school rights—the right of all to a quality education on an equal basis. This lecture examines the lives of young Black women whose activism reshaped public education in the Bay State. Exploring this history is vital\, not only to spotlight the long struggle for Black educational justice\, but also to remind us of our collective obligation to democratize public schools today. \nAbout the speaker: Kabria Baumgartner is an award-winning historian who has worked with numerous historical organizations. In 2021\, she co-founded the award-winning Newburyport Black History Initiative (NBHI)\, an organization that highlights and incorporates Black history into the public landscape in downtown Newburyport. In 2019\, she published her first academic book\, In Pursuit of Knowledge: Black Women and Educational Activism in Antebellum America\, which tells the story of young Black women who fought to democratize public education in the nineteenth-century North. She is Dean’s Associate Professor of History and Africana Studies at Northeastern University. \nThis program is part of the Newton History Series\, co-sponsored by Historic Newton and the Newton Free Library. \nRegistration is encouraged\, and you’ll get a reminder if you sign up. Walk-ins are also welcome.

Shot over five years by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Ondi Timoner\, ALL GOD’S CHILDREN follows her sister\, activist Rabbi Rachel Timoner\, and her Congregation Beth Elohim’s partnership with Reverend Dr. Robert Waterman of Antioch Baptist Church as their faith is put to the test\, and both congregations struggle not to let their differences drive them apart.

SUMMARY:Social Justice Speaker Lunch
DESCRIPTION:FUUSN’s Social Justice Speakers Task Force is holding a discussion with Christine Nguyen\, Jefferson Hussey\, and Renee Hamilton\, volunteer organizers with Eastern Service Workers Association (ESWA). ESWA is an all-volunteer association of low-paid service workers and allies uniting to end poverty conditions in our communities by addressing their root causes. For 49 years in the Boston area\, it has refused government funding or money with strings attached\, relying instead on grassroots support from members and community volunteers. The speakers will talk about ESWA’s Winter Survival Campaign and how members help one another meet urgent needs such as food\, clothing\, and other basic necessities so they can participate in organizing for long-term solutions. You will hear how local small businesses\, students\, professionals\, congregations and other concerned residents support this work. A complementary light lunch will be served. The Social Justice Speakers Task Force is part of FUUSN’s Social Justice Council\, which coordinates our congregation’s efforts to put faith into action through social justice work in our communities and beyond. For more information about FUUSN’s Social Justice Council and to R.S.V.P. to this event\, use this link. First Unitarian Universalist Society in Newton (FUUSN) is a congregation with liberal and progressive theology.

SUMMARY:Night Fight
DESCRIPTION:Night Fight is a hybrid documentary\, nonfiction framed with creative\, cinematic storytelling directed and edited by Khary Saeed Jones. The film emerges from a harrowing incident in 2017 when Jones was followed by a racist vigilante along back roads in rural Canada. Over time\, that encounter cast a long shadow over his life\, prompting a deep\, introspective journey to understand not just what happened\, but how it shaped him. \nRather than a conventional documentary\, Night Fight weaves together Jones’s personal reflections\, self-portrait video fragments\, and interviews with academics\, artists\, and writers about racial violence\, memory\, and psychological impact. The narrative oscillates between the literal journey back to the site of the incident and an emotional\, internal journey toward meaning and healing. \nDescribed as a candid\, nuanced\, and deeply personal film\, Night Fight confronts systemic and interpersonal racial violence and discrimination. It engages with the challenge of sharing an internal reality that is both singular and emblematic of broader collective experiences. \nJoin us for a post-film discussion with the filmmaker Khary Jones. \nKhary Saeed Jones is an award-winning filmmaker\, editor\, and Professor of the Practice in Drama\, Film\, and Performance Studies at Tufts University\, where he teaches screen storytelling and mentors students in both documentary and scripted projects. Jones holds an MFA in Film Directing and an MA in English from Columbia University\, as well as a BA in English from Morehouse College.\nHis work as a writer-director explores the tensions between fiction\, memory\, and lived experience\, and has screened at major festivals and cultural venues including Sundance\, SXSW\, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York\, Full Frame Documentary Film Festival\, and ICA Boston.

SUMMARY:Efficient Water Heating for Newton Homes
DESCRIPTION:Newton homeowners and residents are invited to a free virtual educational webinar\, Efficient Water Heating for Newton Homes\, on Thursday\, February 19 from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM via Zoom. The event will explore efficient\, low-carbon water heating solutions and offer guidance for anyone considering a water heater upgrade or replacement.\nWater heating represents one of the largest energy uses in a typical home\, and choosing the right system can lead to significant energy bill savings and reduced carbon emissions. The webinar is designed to provide practical\, non-technical information to help residents make informed decisions about their hot water systems.\nThe program will cover a range of options\, including heat pump water heaters\, which use electricity more efficiently and can lower energy use and emissions; solar-assisted and hybrid systems that combine renewable energy with modern heat pump technology; and tankless (on-demand) water heaters\, with guidance on when they may be a good fit for a home. The session will also include a real-world case study illustrating how a homeowner evaluated options and made a decision.\nThe session will focus on how these systems perform in everyday life — including space and installation considerations\, efficiency\, and long-term value — with time allotted for attendee questions.\nThe webinar is co-hosted by Green Newton and the City of Newton Climate & Sustainability Team\, with local expert participation from Reservoir Home\, New England Solar Hot Water\, and Boston Tank Swap.\nEvent Details:\nEfficient Water Heating for Newton Homes — Free Webinar\nThursday\, February 19\, 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM\nFree virtual event; registration required to receive the Zoom link. \nFor more information and to register\, visit greennewton.org/event/efficient-water-heating-webinar/

SUMMARY:Mary Pickford's Sparrows: Live Music Accompaniment
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of Mary Pickford’s\, SPARROWS (1926) with live musical accompaniment. \nABOUT THE FILM:\nMolly\, the eldest child at a baby farm hidden deep in a swamp\, must rescue the others when their cruel master decides that one of them will be disposed of. \nLIVE MUSIC\nBRUCE VOGT\nBruce Vogt is a Canadian pianist who has devoted a distinguished career to performing and teaching. He has toured cities and towns of all sizes throughout North America\, Europe\, and Asia as a soloist and chamber musician. He has mentored generations of young artists in his role as professor of piano at the University of Victoria\, and has lectured widely\, leading master classes\, workshops\, and adjudicating for festivals. \nBruce has sustained an interest in exploring the many conversations to be found between music and film\, literature and painting. This has evolved into an unusual side hustle: improvising accompaniments for the great films of the silent era. He has developed a robust career in this multimedia sphere bringing sound to many masterpieces — by Chaplin\, Keaton\, Lloyd\, Griffith\, Sjöström\, Von Sternberg and many others. In movie theaters across Europe\, Asia\, and North America\, he has provided for audiences a greater intimacy with these films\, transforming the silence of the medium into another sphere.
