All members of the UConn community are encouraged to join in this moment of pause, inclusivity, and reflection one year after the 2024 election. Come to relax, reflect, and share in collective art-making and meaningful dialogue. There will be faculty and staff experts to help facilitate conversations, and materials for a collective fiber arts project—representing the thread that weaves us all together—will be provided should you feel called to learn or contribute to the endeavor. We invite everyone to explore ways to create and maintain community in politically charged times. This event is taking place as part of a day of Post-Election Connections, featuring a Well-Being collective forum (https://events.uconn.edu/humanities-institute/event/1564271-well-being-collective-forum-pick-up-the-thread-a-pos) from 10:30am-12:00pm (Student Union 104), and a Know Your Rights workshop with Junta hosted by the Rainbow Center Out to Lunch Lecture Series at 12:00pm (Rainbow Center, Storrs, Student Union 403).

For the Williams sisters, transplanted Northerners living in the segregated South of the 1950's, childhood was cut short when their father, a researcher at Oak Ridge and a beloved biology professor and mentor of the young E.O. Wilson, experienced a psychotic break and had to be institutionalized. He died three months later. Author Rebecca Williams Mlynarczyk and her sister, Carol Williams, share excerpts from this powerful new memoir and reflect on how researching and writing this book led to transformation and healing for both of them.Rebecca Mlynarczyk, Emerita of English, City University of New York | Carol Williams, Associate Dean Emerita, ECSU
