As part of the Reaffirming University Values series, Martha C. Nussbaum will deliver a lecture titled "Free Speech and Civil Disobedience." Sponsored by the Offices of the President and Provost, the lecture series is intended to cultivate an environment to discuss conflicting values and controversial issues in constructive and engaging ways. The recipient of 56 honorary degrees throughout the world, Nussbaum currently teaches at the University of Chicago as a professor of law and ethics. She is the author of several books, including "Political Emotions," "The New Religious Intolerance," and most recently, "Anger and Forgiveness: Resentment, Generosity, Justice," which the Atlantic described as a "different framework for thinking about the rise of Trump." The event begins at 4 p.m. at the Institute at Brown for Environment and Society, Carmichael Auditorium, 85 Waterman St. </div>

Members of the Brown and greater Providence community are invited to attend a lecture by New York Times writer and scholar Roxane Gay. A prominent educator — whose scholarship, writing, activism and commentary continue to shape public discourse on feminism, race, identity and culture — Gay's work discusses “issues of diversity and inclusion through her own perspective." Gay's visit "will create a space for critical engagement with popular culture and attention to the role of academics in public discourse.” The event is free and open to the public, but tickets are required. The event begins at 7 p.m. in the Salomon Center for Teaching, De Ciccio Family Auditorium, the College Green. </div>

Five African writers will read from their work as part of a one-day festival titled "New Global Africa," hosted by the Program in Literary Arts. In the almost six decades since Chinua Achebe published Things Fall Apart and brought African writing into the consciousness of the West, African writers have firmly cemented their place in the global consciousness. Writing on everything from technology to war to sex and politics, African writers have "reinvented what it means to be public intellectuals." During this festival, the writers who are American residents will give their perspective on present day discussions of blackness, race, police brutality, immigration and other issues. A panel discussion with the writers will precede the readings at 9:30 a.m. The event begins at 12:45 p.m. in the McCormack Family Theater, 70 Brown St. </span></div>

ProPublica reporter Andrew Revkin will deliver a lecture titled "Seeking a Good Path in the Anthropocene," sponsored by the Institute at Brown for Environment and Society (IBES). Revkin, who has written about climate change since the 1980s, is credited with developing the idea that humans, through growing impacts on Earth’s climate and other critical systems, had created a “geological age of our own making,” known increasingly as the Anthropocene.

Devoted to beer cultures around the world, the Haffenreffer Museum Student Group has curated an exhibition titled "Brewed for Thought: A Cross-Cultural Exploration of Beer and Brewing." The exhibition will highlight the important role beer has in social gatherings throughout various parts of the world and in various settings including ceremonies, relationships and even medical treatment. In honor of the Haffenreffer family's gift to Brown University more than 60 years ago, the exhibition will feature objects linked to brewing and beer consumption from a broad range of communities including Bolivia, Peru, Kenya, Nepal, Tibet and the United States. Paying homage to the Haffenreffer family's roots as brewers, the objects will provide a context for how fermented beverages have been consumed for the last 2,500 years. The exhibition will be on display through May 2017 in the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology, the College Green.

When Brown University acquired the King Philip Museum as a donation from Rudolf Haffenreffer's family, there was no space dedicated for the development of research and teaching in anthropology. An exhibition titled "Northern Horizons, Global Visions: J. Louis Giddings and the Invention of the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology," aims to shed light on the profound contributions of anthropology pioneer James Louis Giddings as part of the 60th anniversary of the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology. Featuring examples of Giddings' archeological research including Inuit snow goggles, projectile points, a fishing net and rare Iñupiat birchbark kayak, the exhibition serves as a celebration of Giddings' work and of his students that helped transform a small private museum with a Native American focus into a "university teaching museum with worldwide scope and global vision." The exhibition will be on display through June 30, 2017, in the Haffenreffer Museum, the College Green. Exhibition hours are Tuesday-Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., closed on Mondays and University holidays.
