Humanities in Action: Storytelling, Mapping, and the Arts (Yale Environmental Humanities, 1/26/2022)

Yale Environmental Humanities invites you to: “Humanities in Action: Storytelling, Mapping, and the Arts," January 26, 2022, 4-5PM. This ”Humanities in Action” project showcase will feature speakers discussing three recent environmental humanities projects supported by the Environmental Humanities Grant Program. Paul Sabin, Faculty Director, Yale Environmental Humanities, will moderate. 1. Grace Cajski, Yale College, ”Talking Story: How Hawaii’s Modern Aquaculturists Discovered a Solution to the Future in the Past” Talking Story is an oral history and journalism project that aims to capture and preserve the knowledge of Hawaiian aquaculturists who are harnessing ancient fishponds to restore the islands’ ecological balance. The oral history interviews will contribute to a growing archive at the Center for Oral History at the University of Hawaii. Cajski’s journalism efforts have resulted in essays in ECO, Oceanographic Magazine, and Humanities for All. 2. Meredith Miller and MJ Millington, Beinecke Library, “Dreaming Animals” Dreaming Animals is a collaboration between the Beinecke Library’s Meredith Miller and MJ Millington. Miller prints images of endangered animals from the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library’s digital collections, and then re-photographs them in scenes she creates with household objects. Millington then uses the photograph to write a poem exploring the relationship between animals and humans. Text and image are joined together to create the Dreaming Animals series of large format broadsides, which will be presented as an installation at the Yale Health Center starting in late January 2022. 3. Laura Pappalardo, Yale School of Architecture, “Mapping Grounds for Reparations in the Jaraguá Indigenous land, São Paulo, Brazil” Mapping Grounds for Reparations creates instruments, visual materials and documents that contribute to Guarani initiatives to increase public awareness about Guarani land rights and Atlantic Forest preservation in the Jaraguá Indigenous Land, in São Paulo, Brazil. A website, Grounds for Reparations, and a publication serve as instruments for public engagement, complicating the debate of how infrastructural constructions’ impacts have historically encroached upon Atlantic Forest and Guarani territory in São Paulo.
