SUMMARY:Pittsburgh Arts & Lectures “Made Local” – Adriana Ramírez
DESCRIPTION:Register to attend IN-PERSON or ONLINE. \n\nA powerful chronicle of Colombia’s descent into decades of civil war through the lens of an intimate\, multi-generational tale of upheaval and betrayal. \nWhen presumed president-elect Jorge Eliécer Gaitán\, champion of the working class and harbinger of a new era of progressive social change\, is assassinated on the eve of Colombia’s 1948 presidential election\, the capital is plunged into bloodshed. So begins a singularly brutal period of Colombia’s history known simply as la violencia—a bloody civil war that spawned decades of turmoil and splintered the country into ever-shifting factions. \nThe Violence is an intimate history of this conflict—told not from the political center of the war but from the mountainous finca that Adriana E. Ramírez’s family tended to for generations\, and through the eyes of her formidable grandmother\, Esther. With startling lyricism\, Ramírez illuminates the specter of violence—from guerilla warfare to the brutalities found so often in romantic relationships to the spontaneous and senseless violence steeped into everyday Colombian life during this period—and the threat that it poses to a country\, and a family\, that is trying to stay whole. Gracefully braiding together macrohistory\, family history\, and personal narrative\, Adriana E. Ramírez traces these parallel stories of upheaval in a sweeping portrait of a country and family in flux. \n\nAdriana E. Ramírez is a writer\, critic\, and poet based in Pittsburgh\, where she writes a column and edits “InReview” for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. She is the winner of the 2015 PEN/Fusion Emerging Writer’s Prize\, a former critic-at-large for the Los Angeles Times’s Book Section\, and the cofounder of Aster(ix) Journal. Her writing has also appeared in The Atlantic\, The Boston Globe\, People\, ESPN’s The Undefeated (now Andscape)\, LitHub\, Guernica\, Nerve\, and elsewhere. She once lost terribly on Jeopardy!.

SUMMARY:An Evening with Local Author Rosalind Chow
DESCRIPTION:In local author Dr. Rosalind Chow’s book THE DOORS YOU CAN OPEN: A New Way to Network\, Build Trust\, and Use Your Influence to Create a More Inclusive Workplace\, Carnegie Mellon organizational behavior researcher Dr. Rosalind Chow introduces the novel concept of sponsorship. While mentorship can change mentees for the better through valuable coaching and encouragement\, sponsorship takes it one step further — sponsors can change the social environment around their proteges by actively advocating for\, raising the social visibility of\, and protecting them. Put simply\, while mentors act on mentees\, sponsors act on external observers – audiences – to change how they see proteges. \nWe don’t just have the ability to change other people; we also have the ability to change other people’s relationships with one another. \nDrawing on decades of original research analyzing social hierarchies\, corporate environments\, and gender and race relations\, Dr. Chow makes it clear that our current approach to relationships and career advancement is falling flat and urges everyone to engage in sponsorship — not just those at the uppermost levels. Sponsorship opens doors in the workplace\, which is especially critical for the careers of women and people of color\, and ultimately leads to mutually beneficial lifelong connections. This event takes place in the South West Reading Room.
