Ars Nova operates on the unceded land of the Lenape peoples on the island of Manhahtaan (Mannahatta) in Lenapehoking, the Lenape Homeland. We acknowledge the brutal history of this stolen land and the displacement and dispossession of its Indigenous people. We also acknowledge that after there were stolen lands, there were stolen people. We honor the generations of displaced and enslaved people that built, and continue to build, the country that we occupy today. We gathered together in virtual space to watch this performance. We encourage you to consider the legacies of colonization embedded within the technology and structures we use and to acknowledge its disproportionate impact on communities of color and Indigenous peoples worldwide. We invite you to join us in acknowledging all of this as well as our shared responsibility: to consider our way forward in reconciliation, decolonization, anti-racism and allyship. We commit ourselves to the daily practice of pursuing this work.

  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES. In solidarity and support, Megan Abbott (DARE ME) Chris Abbott (LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE; CAGNEY AND LACEY; MAGNUM, PI; HIGH SIERRA SEARCH AND RESCUE; DR.

  • Mtv's News & Documentaries Department Presents True
    MTV’S NEWS & DOCUMENTARIES DEPARTMENT PRESENTS TRUE LIFE: I’m in an Interfaith Relationship Relationships can be tough but, what happens when the person you love doesn’t share the same faith as you do? Can the differences ever be put aside? With over 4,000 known religions in the world, from traditional faith to new age beliefs, interfaith relationships are very common. For some people faith and religion is instilled from a very early age and usually lasts a lifetime. For others, faith is found later in life. Either way, there is not much that will make these individuals change or compromise their religion and faith…not even meeting the love of their life. Are you currently dating someone who doesn’t share the same religious background as you? Do your family and friends not understand? If you appear between the ages of 18-28 and you want to share the challenges and benefits of being in an interfaith relationship, we want to hear from you. Please email your contact info, recent pictures of you and your loved one, and explanation of your current relationship to [email protected]. True Life wants to experience your interfaith relationship from your point of view. Since 1998, True Life, an Emmy Award winning documentary series, has covered a diverse mix of stories, ranging from pop culture trends to breaking news topics. Whether documenting the lives of soldiers going to war, or people undergoing plastic surgery -- True Life tells its stories solely from the varied voices and points-of-view of its characters -- putting the series in the unique position of reflecting the state of youth culture at any given moment.

  • Final Report
    NATIONAL YOUTH SUMMIT: ABOLITION – FINAL REPORT FINAL REPORT Program Overview “The summit seemed to make slavery past and present more real,” Participating Teacher February 11, 2013 4,200 participating students and teachers onsite and online The National Youth Summit on Abolition is the third in a series of webcasts presented by the National Museum of American History that are designed to bring middle and high school students together with scholars, teachers, policy experts, and activists in a national conversation about important events in America’s past that have relevance to the nation’s present and future. On February 11, 2013, through a webcast that included a moderated panel discussion and web chat, over 4,200 students and teachers in 33 states and the US Virgin Islands as well as Kenya, Canada, Pakistan, Malta, and Brazil reflected together on the abolition movement of the 19th century and explored its lessons for ending modern- day slavery and human trafficking. The program featured excerpts from the PBS AMERICAN EXPERIENCE documentary The Abolitionists. Two hundred and forty-four (244) students from Washington, DC’s public middle and high schools attended the event in person at the National Museum of American History. Two hundred and eleven (211) attendees pre-registered to watch alone or in a group for a total of 3,266 pre-registered viewers, a similar level of interest to the previous National Youth Summit on the Dust Bowl’s 291 pre-registered viewers. Concurrent programs took place at two Smithsonian Affiliate museums, the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center and the Heinz History Center, and at President Lincoln’s Cottage.

  • Gillian Laub CV 2021
    Gillian Laub (b.1975, Chappaqua, New York) is a photographer and filmmaker based in New York. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a degree in comparative literature before studying photography at the International Center of Photography, where her love of visual storytelling and family narratives began. Laub’s first monograph, Testimony (Aperture 2007), began as a response to the media coverage during the second Intifada in the Middle East, and a desire to create a dialogue between apparent enemies. This work is comprised of portraits and testimonies from Israeli Jews, Israeli Arabs, Lebanese, and Palestinians all directly and indirectly affected by the complicated geopolitical context in which they lived. Laub spent over a decade working in Georgia exploring issues of lingering racism in the American South. This work became Laub’s first feature length, directed and produced, documentary film, Southern Rites that premiered on HBO in May 2015. Her monograph, Southern Rites (Damiani, 2015) and travelling exhibition by the same title came out in conjunction with the film and are being used for an educational outreach campaign, in schools and institutions across the country. Southern Rites was named one of the best photo books of 2015 by TIME, Smithsonian, Vogue, LensCulture, and American Photo. It was also nominated for a Lucie award and Humanitas award. "Riveting...In a calm, understated tone, Southern Rites digs deep to expose the roots that have made segregated proms and other affronts possible. Southern Rites is a portrait of the inequities that lead to disaster on the streets of cities like Baltimore and Ferguson, Mo.” - The New York Times Laub has been interviewed on NPR, CNN, MSNBC, Good Morning America, Times Talks and numerous others.
