The Newberry Annual Report 2016 – 17
The Newberry A nnua l Repor t 2016 – 17 Letter from the Chair and the President hat a big and exciting year the Newberry had in 2016-17! As Wan institution, we have been very much on the move, and on behalf of the Board of Trustees and Staff we are delighted to offer you this summary of the destinations we reached last year and our plans for moving forward in 2017-18. Financially, the Newberry enjoyed much success in the past year. Excellent performance by the institution’s investments, up 13.2 percent overall, put us well ahead of the performance of such bellwether endowments as those of Harvard and Yale. Our drawdown on investments for operating expenses was a modest 3.8 percent, well Chair of the Board of Trustees Victoria J. Herget and below the traditional target of 5.0 percent. In fact, of total operating Newberry President David Spadafora expenses only 22.9 percent had to be funded through spending from the endowment—a reduction by more than half of our level of reliance on endowment a decade ago. Partly this change has resulted from improvement in Annual Fund giving: in 2016-17 we achieved the greatest-ever single- year tally of new gifts for unrestricted operating expenses, $1.75 million, some 42 percent higher than just before the economic crisis 10 years ago. Funding for restricted purposes also grew last year, with generous gifts from foundations and individuals for specific programs and projects. Partly, too, our good financial results are owing to continued judicious control of expenses, exemplified by the fact that total staffing levels were 2.7 percent lower in 2016-17 than in 2006-07. -

Dell Katherine “Kit” Duffy Adrienne J. Goodman Marie J. Kuda Mary D. Powers 2 3 4 CHICAGO LGBT HALL OF FAME The Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame (formerly the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame) is both a historic event and an exhibit. Through the Hall of Fame, residents of Chicago and the world are made aware of the contributions of Chicago’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) communities and the communities’ efforts to eradicate bias and discrimination. With the support of the City of Chicago Commission on Human Relations, its Advisory Council on Gay and Lesbian Issues (later the Advisory Council on Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Issues) established the Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame (changed to the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame in 2015) in June 1991. The inaugural induction ceremony took place during Pride Week at City Hall, hosted by Mayor Richard M. Daley. This was the first event of its kind in the country. Today, after the advisory council’s abolition and in partnership with the City, the Hall of Fame is in the custody of Friends of the Chicago LGBT Hall of Fame, an Illinois not- for-profit corporation with a recognized charitable tax-deductible status under Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(3). -

The Frames and Depictions of Transgender Athletes in Sports Illustrated
THESIS DECOLONIZING TRANSNESS IN SPORT MEDIA: THE FRAMES AND DEPICTIONS OF TRANSGENDER ATHLETES IN SPORTS ILLUSTRATED Submitted By Tammy Rae Matthews Department of Journalism and Media Communication In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Science Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Fall 2016 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Catherine Knight Steele Co-Advisor: Kris Kodrich Joseph Champ Caridad Souza Copyright by Tammy Rae Matthews 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT DECOLONIZING TRANSNESS IN SPORT MEDIA: THE FRAMES AND DEPICTIONS OF TRANSGENDER ATHLETES IN SPORTS ILLUSTRATED This discourse analysis examines depictions of trans athletes in Sports Illustrated and sport culture through the lens of queer theory and the interpretive-packages model proposed by Gamson and Modigliani (1989). Four interpretive packages emerged from the print content: (1) Marginalization, (2) Labeling, (3) Fighting and Fairness and (4) Pride and Affirmation. The results illustrate that discourse has generally become more sensitive to trans issues. The author presents these results with cautious optimism. Blindingly affirming and romancing the transgender can be equally as superficial as marginalization, and representations of trans athletes secured by one person are problematic. Researchers and sport organizations should dismantle antiquated, coercive sex segregation in traditional sport and decolonize how it contributes to gender-based oppression. The author recommends that media outlets focus on presenting fair, accurate and -
SLF Portolan Project Interview with Nalo Hopkinson, Andrea Hairston, and Sheree Renée Thomas Los Angeles, California, 2019
SLF Portolan Project Interview with Nalo Hopkinson, Andrea Hairston, and Sheree Renée Thomas Los Angeles, California, 2019 Mary Anne Mohanraj: Hi everybody, this is Mary Anne Mohanraj, and I'm here at the World Fantasy Convention 2019 in Los Angeles. I'm here with Nalo Hopkinson, Andrea Hairston, and Sheree Renée Thomas, really delighted to be interviewing them for the SLF. So, I thought we would start with how I first got to know all of you and your work. I think the first one was Nalo Hopkinson. I met Nalo at WisCon, it would have been, I want to say around 1997-98, when WisCon was making a real effort to do outreach to people of color, and they had actually invited me to come, and I was a starving grad student at the time, and said I couldn't possibly fly from California all the way to Madison. And they had covered my expenses to attend the convention. And I got there, and there were five people of color, at the seven – Andrea Hairston: That was a good year. [laughter] Mary Anne Mohanraj: Yeah, at the 700-something person convention. So they had an issue, which they were trying to address. And Nalo was one of them. Does that match up with your memory? And, I don't know, was that your first WisCon as well, or? Nalo Hopkinson: My first WisCon was right after Clarion, and I did Clarion in ‘95, so it was probably a few years before. Mary Anne Mohanraj: A little before, then. Nalo Hopkinson: I think I knew who you were before then. -
SLF Portolan Project Interview with Minal Hajratwala Locus Awards, Seattle, June 2019
SLF Portolan Project Interview with Minal Hajratwala Locus Awards, Seattle, June 2019 Mary Anne Mohanraj: Hey everybody, this is Mary Anne Mohanraj, prototyping a podcast that I'm hoping that Ben Rosenbaum and I will be able to do going forward. We don't really have a focus yet. We are thinking it could be somewhere in the culture and speculative fiction realm. It may be pretty wide ranging, because Ben and I often talk about politics and religion, and family; science, technology, cities; whatever strikes our fancy, and we get into good conversations. But Ben isn't with us today. Today, I'm in Seattle. I have come here for the Locus Award ceremony and conveniently was able to set up an interview with Minal Hajratwala (Did I say that right? I did, okay) – who is here as a Clarion student, which really startled me because I know her as a very accomplished writer. She did this book Leaving India, which is a history of the Indian diaspora, but it's also a memoir about her family that ended up in six different countries? Yes? Minal Hajratwala: Nine! Mary Anne Mohanraj: Nine different countries. I get this wrong every time! Nine different countries – Minal Hajratwala: It’s a lot of countries to keep track of. Mary Anne Mohanraj: It's a lot of countries. Nine different countries. But it's a book that I teach in my postcolonial lit class. But she's now made a turn to science fiction. And she's here, so – say hi! Minal Hajratwala: Hi! Mary Anne Mojanraj: Do you want to introduce yourself? Minal Hajratwala: Here we are, yes, I'm Minal Hajratwala, here we are in J’aime Les Crepe House in Seattle. -
