SUMMARY:Broadcast Premiere of The Co-Op Wars
DESCRIPTION:THE CO-OP WARS has its broadcast premiere on TPT Channel 2.   8 pm\, Oct. 4.  \nThe documentary tells the story of the birth of the Twin Cities’ unique food co-op ecosystem and the violent struggle that almost tore it apart.  \nMinneapolis\, MN (Sept. 20\, 2021) – In the midst of an era of social tumult in the Twin Cities\, a new film tells the little-known story of an earlier moment of political conflict in the metro area\, when young radicals went to war with each other over issues of class\, race\, and food. THE CO-OP WARS documents the tumultuous early years of the Twin Cities’ natural food co-op movement\, when young people radicalized by the Civil Rights movement and the Vietnam War built a thriving alternative economy\, only to see it jeopardized by conflicting visions of social change. \nTHE CO-OP WARS will have its Twin Cities broadcast premiere on Twin Cities Public Television Channel 2 at 8 pm on October 4. The film was directed by Minneapolis filmmaker and ACW member Deacon Warner\, produced by cooperative activist and former Minnesotan Erik Esse\, and narrated by renowned actor Peter Coyote\, known for his work on Ken Burns documentaries such as The Vietnam War. \nMany Minnesota residents are unaware of how unique the region’s food cooperative sector is. It’s the largest in the nation\, with the Twin Cities alone boasting seventeen locations\, tens of thousands of member-owners\, and hundreds of millions of dollars in sales. It also has a unique history: Soon after an initial period of explosive growth in the early 1970s\, the “Co-op Wars” erupted in the Twin Cities\, a heated and sometimes violent conflict initiated by a secretive Marxist group calling itself the Co-op Organization or C.O. THE CO-OP WARS tells this story through interviews with the participants and personal film footage and links it to the more recent controversy around the opening of Seward Co-op’s Friendship store in South Minneapolis. \nThe soundtrack of THE CO-OP WARS is largely made up of songs from Minnesota music legend Willie Murphy. Murphy\, who passed away in 2019\, was known for his solo work\, his band Willie & the Bees\, and his collaborations with Bonnie Raitt and Spider John Koerner. A fixture of the West Bank counterculture of the 1970s\, Murphy was the headliner at the “Anti- Terrorism Benefit Boogie” for Bryant-Central Co-op after it was attacked during the Co-op Wars.\nIn addition to appearing in films such as Erin Brockovich and narrating eight documentaries by Ken Burns\, Narrator Peter Coyote was also a leader of the 1960s counterculture that birthed the natural foods co-ops. He was one of the founders of The Diggers\, an anarchic San Francisco collective known for their street actions involving free food and performance\, which helped inspire the Twin Cities hippies who started the first co-ops. \nProducer Erik Esse and Director Deacon Warner were inspired to make THE CO-OP WARS out of their shared love of co-ops\, history\, and documentary filmmaking. Esse is a long-time cooperator who worked at North Country Cooperative Grocery (the first natural foods co-op in the Twin Cities) and as an organizer of the US Federation of Worker Cooperatives. Warner has made many short films that have been screened at festivals around the world\, including Peaceful Warriors: On the Road with Vets for Peace. He is a film educator and founder of the youth program at FilmNorth in Minneapolis. Find more information at CoopWars.com.

SUMMARY:Blood on The Pavement - Proposals Due
DESCRIPTION:“Blood on the Pavement”: An Open Call For Artists\nPoet\, artist\, and Coaching Project for a Better World Project Manager\,  Ashley Richardson\, believes all art has immediate social\, political\, and cultural power. She also believes in using this power to spark conversation and catalyze change. With help from team members\, and funding through ACW’s Coaching Project for a Better World\, Richardson will create an art exhibit for the greater Twin Cities area tentatively titled\, “Blood on The Pavement.” \nThe exhibit\, scheduled to open May 2022\, is seeking artists to collaborate with and feature. \nThose interested in exhibiting with “Blood on the Pavement\,” or learning more about this project\, can email richardson.exhibits@gmail.com.\n“Blood on The Pavement” will focus on addressing violence against black bodies\, both verbally and physically\, from microaggressions to police brutality. However\, in its early stages\, there is still room to be surprised. A believer that art should never end where it began\, Richardson is open to exploring other meanings behind the phrase “blood on the pavement\,” with a particular interest in violence against women’s bodies and marginalized communities. Through collaboration with her ACW team and potential exhibiting artists\, Richardson hopes to see this project unfold in unexpected new ways. \nFor this project\, Richardson will write a series of 5 to 10 poems exploring the social injustices mentioned above and asks that artists use these poems as a jumping-off point for their artwork. Please note there is no “correct” interpretation of the poems. Richardson is solely interested that artists create pieces (as they see fit) to express the feelings and thoughts inspired by her words. Artists will receive small stipends to help cover and/or offset the costs of materials\, with a possibility for additional payments depending on budgets. Richardson is seeking artists from a range of mediums\, i.e. sculpture\, painting\, mixed media\, collage\, printmaking\, sound\, and more. \nIf you would like to learn more about this project\, or have leads on potential venues\, please email richardson.exhibits@gmail.com. Artists interested in exhibiting with “Blood on the Pavement” should send 3 to 4 sample pieces\, along with a brief (4 to 5 sentences) statement of interest by November 1\, 2021.

SUMMARY:Native American Heritage Month Begins
DESCRIPTION:By Laura-Mann-Hill Diversity and Inclusion Coordinator. \n \nI live near Haha Wakpa\, the Mississippi River\, that connects all waters and all lives where we live.The river is made of many small drops that flow together – like our individual commitments to learning and unlearning can bring us together. \n  \nNovember is Native American Heritage Month. Although one month is never enough time to fully celebrate or honor any cultural heritage\, it is always a reminder to celebrate and honor the rich and diverse cultures and traditions\, knowledge\, and contributions of Indigenous people. Those who call Minnesota home live on the traditional homelands of the Dakota people who have stewarded this place for thousands of years. It has been home to and cared for and by many other Indigenous nations\, including the Ojibwe and the HoChunk. I continue my ongoing journey to incorporate more practices into my life that affirm Indigenous sovereignty and Black Liberation. I recently emerged from an experience exploring this topic hosted by Million Artist Movement which included a talk with Dr. Chris Mato Nunpa: https://youtu.be/ppEpVBrgQCo \n  \n“Everyone has a responsibility to divest from anti-Blackness and to respect Indigenous sovereignty (and specifically tribal sovereignty). And for those who carry the political\, legal\, and social currency of whiteness and benefit from these systems that oppress and attempts to stifle the future of Black\, Indigenous\, and other people of color\, I believe it is their responsibility to use their currency to dismantle said systems with the intention of forfeiting their privilege and positionality within this hierarchy.” \n – Amber Starks \nWe must acknowledge land theft and genocide; learn more about the land we reside on – learn the names of places that are not colonized. Learn about land reparations and how we can honor treaties – and take action in movements like to Stop Line 3 to protect the river and us all! \n(Quilt square created by Friends Mississippi River Youth Council member with Million Artist Movement) \nMore Resources:  \nStop Line 3: tinyurl.com/ResistLine3 \nHonor Treaties: http://treatiesmatter.org/exhibit/welcome/learn-more/ \nMní Wičhóni Mural: \nhttps://fmr.org/stewardship-updates/fmr-fifth-water-quality-mural-celebrates-community-connections-water \nAll My Relations Arts: biskaabiiyang (returning to ourselves) group exhibition investigating Indigenous Futurism http://www.allmyrelationsarts.com/ \nNever Homeless Before 1492: \nhttps://indiancountrytoday.com/news/never-homeless-before-1492 \nReclaiming Native Truth: https://youtu.be/SW-nYYY89D0 \nSay It!

SUMMARY:Frame Your Rights Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:#FrameYourRights Exhibition focusing on Voting\, Reproductive Rights\, Policing and other social justice topics will be staged. \nCommittee Layl McDill\, Barbara Bridges\, Cory Favre\, Nina Robinson\, Natalie McGuire\, not pictured: Deb Ripp\, Lucienne Schroepfer\n\nExhibiting: Cory Favre\, Ari Moss\, Rebecca David\,  Natalie McGuire \n\nNov 4-7\, 2021\, During Art this Way show  Location: Solar Arts Building\, Address: 711 NE 15th Ave\, Minneapolis\, MN 55413\nEvent hours:\n11-4 5-9 pm\n11-5 5-9 pm\n11-5 noon – 8 pm\n11-6 noon – 4 pm  Details: \nACW leader\, Natalie McGuire\, submits her unique photography merging into her mosaic frame works to galleries all over the country. The work\, Bridge to Wonder\, was accepted into the exhibition at the Arcadia Art Show in Tyler\, Texas. When Texas passed the law denying the marginalized their reproductive freedom (the wealthy can travel across state lines)\, Natalie felt compelled to take action.  She wrote to the curator of the exhibit that\, respectfully\, she could not send her art into a state which would support such a trampling of “the right to choose”.  Much to her amazement\, the curator of Arcadia Art Show\, Dace Kidd\, responded that she understood and asked if she could install her statement on a black background\, framed\, in the place her work would have been hung. This was an encouraging outcome\, but then so what?  Who is this punishing?  ACW is going two steps further to help those who need reproductive services NOW. \nACW is also aware that a boycott of all things Texan punishes all Texans.  If you would like to help the women currently in crisis\, please send a donation to: The Lilith Fund – supports the right of all Texans to make their own reproductive choices\, regardless of income. https://www.lilithfund.org/donate \nRead More:  https://www.arttochangetheworld.org/10781-2/

SUMMARY:Cory Favre: The White Knuckled Project Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:The White Knuckled Project\nBy Cory Favre \n“With this project\, I want to spotlight the lengths women and those who experience harassment and assault go through to ensure their personal safety. It is something nearly all of us do on a regular basis. In some of the conversations around this project and with friends\, it’s almost become a joke. But\, inside of the laughter is a nervousness that we all connect to. This is our reality on these panels.” -Cory Favre \nCory Favre is a visual artist working in NE Minneapolis.

SUMMARY:Hold Us Tight - Fresh Eye Gallery show ends
DESCRIPTION:Nina Martine Robinson will be participating in Fresh Eye Gallery’s exhibition with her installation “empty without you”.\nNina’s work explores the ramifications of neurodiversity\, specifically autism spectrum disorder on the family. Many individuals on the spectrum do not like to be touched or hugged. This can lead to dysphoria within the family unit.  My use of sleeves sewn together to form figurative shapes are metaphors for hugging\, individualism and speak to the repetitive behaviors that are synonymous with ASD.\n4238 Nicollet Ave S\, Minneapolis\, MN 55409 \nMore info:     https://www.fresheyegallery.com/

SUMMARY:Anton Treuer: Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:In The Cultural Toolbox: Traditional Ojibwe Living in the Modern World\, Anton Treuer tells stories of one Ojibwe family’s hunting\, gathering\, harvesting\, and cultural ways and beliefs–without violating protected secrets. Following the four seasons of the year and the four seasons of life\, this intimate view of the Ojibwe world reflects a relatable\, modern\, richly experienced connection to the rest of the planet. It also opens up a new way of understanding these living traditions\, which carry thousands of years of cultural knowledge still in the making.\n\n\n\nToday’s Ojibwe people have–against all odds–maintained a dazzling array of deep\, beautiful\, adaptive ways of connecting to the spiritual\, natural\, and human beings around them. Variations in Ojibwe cultural practices are\, of course\, as diverse as their homelands\, which stretch across the Great Lakes\, Canadian shield\, pine forests\, and prairie potholes of four US states and three Canadian provinces. And Ojibwe culture\, like every other culture\, has changed over time. But these variations and changes have always followed a distinct path\, reflecting an identifiably Ojibwe worldview. While the world around\, in\, and connected to Ojibwe spaces continues to envelop myriad cultures and peoples\, the Ojibwe have found a way to stay recognizable to their ancestors. \nDate: Wed.\, Dec 8\, 2021\, 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm\nLocation: Mill City Museum\, 704 S. 2nd St.\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407\nContact: 612-341-7582\, mcm@mnhs.org\nCost: Free
