Humanities Washington Speaker Event: Heaven on the Half Shell: Washington State’s Oyster Odyssey.-David George Gordon
Get to know the Pacific Northwest’s most beloved bivalve: the oyster. In this talk, author David George Gordon discusses three species— the Olympia, Eastern, and Pacific oysters— along with the people who have cultivated these delicacies for many generations.
Learn about the Native American sea gardens and clam beds that existed 11,500 years ago, as well as the contemporary efforts in our state to cultivate oysters, both native and introduced. Along the way, learn about the many surprising innovations that have made oysters such an enduringly popular and environmentally sustainable food. As the old saying goes: when the tide is out, the table is set.

Humanities Washington Speaker Event: Un-American Activities: The Blacklist Era and Hollywood-Robert Horton
“Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?”
The answer to this question—or the refusal to answer it—cast hundreds of lives into turmoil at the dawn of the Cold War. The Red Scare that erupted in the 1940s allowed the House Committee on Un-American Activities to grab headlines by parading prominent Hollywood figures before the cameras. Witnesses could either defy the hearings at the risk of their own careers, or “name names”—inform on their colleagues and friends. The resulting blacklist threw many moviemaking professionals out of work.
This presentation, illustrated with film clips, tells the stories from this heartbreaking and scandalous era, and how notables such as Humphrey Bogart, Elia Kazan, and Charlie Chaplin were swept up in the frenzy. We’ll also ask a question: With today’s politics at a boiling point, are we living in such a period again?

The 2nd Annual Race for Recovery will be held on Saturday, May 18, 2024, starting at 8:00 am. The Race for Recovery is organized by the Quinault Wellness Center in Aberdeen, Washington. The Quinault Wellness Center supports the local community by providing a holistic approach for the treatment of substance use disorders.
