SUMMARY:Windows in Time: Out in the Valley: Southern Oregon LGBTQ+ Histories
DESCRIPTION:Using items from the SOHS Collection as a starting point\, Dr. Anna Sloan will explore expressions of LGBTQ+ life\, identity\, community\, and resilience in Southern Oregon over the past 150+ years. \nLearn how the western frontier made space for some settlers’ alternative gender and sexual identities while simultaneously erasing Indigenous expressions of the same. Explore how changing social mores of the early 20th century affected peoples’ lives and livelihoods. Hear more recent stories of local LGBTQ+ community-building\, meaning-making\, artistry\, and resilience\, even in the face of discrimination and violence. Additionally\, attendees will learn about new efforts at SOHS to integrate more of these stories into our collection — and why this task is as challenging as it is important. \nDr. Anna Sloan (she/her/hers) is the Curator of Collections for the Southern Oregon Historical Society (SOHS)\, and a Research Archaeologist with the Southern Oregon University Laboratory of Anthropology (SOULA). She is passionate about connecting communities with their histories through the objects that reflect our lived experiences — from the smallest of pottery sherds to the largest of wagon wheels. \nThe monthly Windows in Time lunchtime lectures feature well-known writers and historians and bring alive the people\, values\, and events that shaped our southern Oregon heritage. Lectures are jointly sponsored by the Southern Oregon Historical Society (SOHS) and Jackson County Library Services. Programs are presented in Medford (first Wednesdays\, in-person and online) and again in Ashland (second Wednesdays\, in-person). Recordings of Medford presentations are available on the JCLS Beyond YouTube channel.

SUMMARY:“Healing the Heartbreak of Being Human\,” a teaching with Lama Karma Yeshe Lama Zopa (visiting teachers from Santa Fe\, New Mexico)
DESCRIPTION:Heartbreak touches our lives in myriad forms\, great and small. Sometimes it seems we glimpse our hopes for happiness through a hazy gauze of “if onlys” that keep us rushing outwards\, constantly busy and craving. We project possible fulfillment onto things\, others\, and experiences\, themselves incapable of satisfying our deepest wish. \nBuddha Shakyamuni\, the consummate healer\, offers myriad teachings and practices serving to salve\, and ultimately cure\, the longing that colors our days. Our very lives offer the priceless opportunity for encountering his path and practicing the subtle art of making it come alive in our own experience. \nCome join us in opening an exploration of the Buddha’s profound approach to healing the heartbreak of being human! \nKarma Yeshe Chödrön and Karma Zöpa Jigme are students of Kyabje Bokar Rinpoche\, and have been full-time practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism for over twenty years. Since 2005\, they have been teaching and translating Dharma texts and oral teachings from Tibetan to English for the Rigpe Dorje Institute for International Students at Pullahari Monastery in Nepal. \nIn 2016\, they successfully completed the traditional Kagyu lineage three-year cloistered retreat at Vajra Vidya Retreat Center in Crestone\, Colorado\, under the auspices of Kyabje Thrangu Rinpoche. They are passionate about sharing traditional methods for transmitting experiential understanding of Buddhadharma with Western students\, through their international Dharma community\, Prajna Fire. They also share the Buddhadharma actively through their Prajna Sparks podcast and frequent contributions to contemporary Buddhist journals. \nOnline & In-person Event: Zoom registration required. In-person registration recommended.

SUMMARY:Forest Defender Training Series: How to Submit a Public Comment
DESCRIPTION:The Forest Service is currently in the process of updating the Northwest Forest Plan (NWFP) for the first time in 30 years\, and they want to hear from you! In this training\, we will walk you through the process of forming substantive comments and becoming involved in public lands decision-making. \nFinalized in 1994\, the plan covers 17 national forests totaling 24-million acres across western Washington\, Oregon\, and northern California. It has successfully improved the region’s streams and waterways\, protected salmon and other wildlife habitat\, and has protected vast quantities of old-growth forest. \nWe will provide you with sample language and suggestions to ensure your comment is as effective as possible. This is an opportunity to learn how to influence the actions of the Forest Service and to have your voice heard! The NWFP is the largest\, science-based forest and ecosystem management plan in the country. \nFood and drink available to purchase at Clyde’s Corner. \nSign up for more details about location and what to bring at https://www.kswild.org/upcoming-events/2024forestdefendertrainingcomments. \nIf you need help filling out an event form or other accommodations please call Allee Gustafson\, our Events and Volunteer Manager at 541-488-5789\, extension 1014.
