- Feb 159:30 PMFilm: “Kneecap” (2024)When fate brings Belfast schoolteacher JJ into the orbit of self-confessed “low life scum” Naoise Ó Cairealláin and Liam Óg, the needle drops on a hip hop act like no other. Rapping in their native Irish, the music group Kneecap quickly becomes unlikely figureheads of a Civil Rights movement to save their mother tongue.

- Feb 161:00 PM"The Wizard of Oz" Sing-Along (1939)Get those voices ready to sing along with this Hollywood classic! While not initially a major financial success due to its large budget, The Wizard of Oz was a critical and cultural sensation when released in 1939 (losing the Best Picture Oscar to similarly-popular Gone with the Wind). Its multi-generational nostalgia solidified with its annual holiday telecasts, first on CBS and later NBC, where Dorothy (Judy Garland) became iconic and her journey well-known: A tornado hits Kansas and sends her and her little dog, too, to Oz. Once there, she befriends a brainless Scarecrow (Ray Bolger), a heartless Tin Man (Jack Haley), and a spineless Lion (Bert Lahr). The four follow the yellow brick road to meet the eponymous Wizard while battling the Wicked Witch of the West (née Elphaba). GET TICKETS

- Feb 1812:30 PMLecture—"When Impunity Fights Back: International Anti-Corruption Commissions, Elite Manipulation, and Democratic Backsliding in Central America"Rachel SchwartzKellogg Visiting Fellow Amid increasing global concern with corruption, policymakers and civil society organizations have urged the adoption of international anti-corruption commissions (IACCs) to assist in strengthening the rule of law where politicians lack the will and capacity to crack down on corruption themselves. Under what conditions are IACCs granted the autonomy to investigate and prosecute corruption, and when do domestic elites succeed in constraining their authority and capacity? Drawing on comparative analysis of IACCs in Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador, this lecture will unpack the domestic and transnational determinants of IACC design, offering policy insights on the possibilities and limits of international support for strengthening the rule of law in fragile contexts.

The moving-image work centers on the capacity of Maya cultural belongings, and wind instruments in particular, to give voice to Indigenous systems of knowledge. This video work is currently on view at the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art as part of the exhibition Clarissa Tossin: All That You Touch, You Change. This screening is an opportunity to see the work in its entirety and speak with the artist during a question and answer discussion afterward. RESERVE TICKETS
