SUMMARY:UC Center for Climate Justice Launch Event
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Climate Justice is a University of California system wide initiative to address climate change as a social justice and equity issue. \nClimate justice recognizes the disproportionate impacts of climate change on low-income communities and BIPOC communities around the world\, the people and places least responsible for the problem. The UC Center for Climate Justice seeks solutions that address the root causes of climate change and in doing so\, simultaneously address a broad range of social\, racial\, and environmental injustices. \nThe Center’s vision is a world where broad-scale climate action is driven by science and a systems perspective\, with social and ecological justice at the forefront. We aim to center issues of equity in addressing climate change\, working collaboratively with researchers\, educators\, NGOs\, activists\, policymakers\, philanthropists\, Indigenous and community leaders\, and private sector actors who are fighting for climate justice in California and beyond. Through innovative research\, transformative education\, and public engagement\, we are committed to empowering the next generation of climate justice leaders. \nThe Center for Climate Justice launch event will be held over two days\, April 22-23\, 2021\, beginning on Earth Day. It will feature keynote presentations by food sovereignty scholar-activist Vandana Shiva and DOE Deputy Director for Energy Justice Shalanda Baker\, a fireside chat with Green New Deal architect Rihana Gunn-Wright\, and panel discussions featuring California climate justice leaders\, scholars and activists. We will also host breakout room conversations and a music and spoken-word celebration on the second day. We hope to see you there! \nREGISTER HERE \n\nApril 22\, 2021 (9:00am-1:30pm PST) \nSchedule: \n9:00am-9:25am Opening and Introduction to the Launch \n9:25am-9:45am Keynote Address: Shalanda Baker \n9:50am-10:40am Panel #1: Just Transitions \n10:50am-11:40am Panel #2: Social\, Racial and Environmental Justice \n11:50am-12:40pm Panel #3: Indigenous Climate Action \n12:45pm-1:20pm Fireside Chat with Rihana Gunn-Wright and Center Director Tracey Osborne \n1:20pm-1:30pm Closing Statements \n\n\nApril 23\, 2021 (9:00am-2:30pm PST) \nSchedule: \n9:00am-9:25am Opening and Introduction to the Launch \n9:25am-9:45am Keynote Address: Vandana Shiva \n9:50am-10:40am Panel #1: Community Resilience and Adaptation \n10:50am-11:40am Panel #2: Natural Climate Solutions \n11:50am-12:40pm Panel #3: Climate Education and Engagement \n12:45pm-1:20pm Breakout Groups or Video Viewing \n1:30pm-3:20pm Musical Celebration \n3:20pm-3:30pm Closing Statements

SUMMARY:Plastic Bag Store: The Film
DESCRIPTION:All CAP UCLA online performance programs in our 2020-21 Season will be free\, click here to create a login for CAP UCLA Online.  \n\nCreated by award-winning Brooklyn-based artist\, puppet designer and director Robin Frohardt\, The Plastic Bag Store was conceived as an immersive installation and puppet-theater piece designed to take place in a storefront retail space. Yucky Shards cereal\, Bagorade sports drink\, Fabags deodorizers boasting “that fresh bag scent”\, rotisserie chickens\, cupcakes and sushi are among the thousands of hand sculpted items—all made from discarded plastic bags. The store was scheduled to open in March 2020 to coincide with New York’s plastic bag ban but was postponed due to the city’s COVID-19 lockdown ultimately opening in a vacant Times Square storefront for a limited audience in Fall 2020 earning a spot on the NY Times’ Best of 2020 Theater list. For L.A. audiences\, Frohardt and her team will reimagine a visit to The Plastic Bag Store through a new film commissioned by CAP UCLA. \nPlastic Bag Store: The Film transforms the installation into a dynamic series of stories that traverse ancient history\, the present day and a future dystopia. The Plastic Bag Store employs inventive puppetry\, humor\, craft and a critical lens to explore how the hordes of plastic waste might be misinterpreted by future generations. \nFrohardt states\, “The Plastic Bag Store is a visually rich and humorous experience that hopefully encourages a different way of thinking about the foreverness of plastic\, the permanence of the disposable\, and that there is no ‘away’ when we throw something out. There is great humor to be found in the pitfalls of capitalism—humor and satire can be powerful tools for social criticism especially with issues that feel too sad and overwhelming to confront directly.” \nREGISTER  HERE
