Mes de la Historia Negra 2022

Febrero es el Mes de la Historia Negra, un tiempo para reconocer, celebrar y honrar la rica y diversa historia, contribuciones importantes y logros de los afroamericanos.

Aunque el mes de febrero ha sido designado Mes de la Historia Negra desde 1976, en la Biblioteca del Condado de Sonoma reconocemos que el compromiso de celebrar y aprender sobre las generaciones de estadounidenses negros que han influido y enriquecido a la nación y la sociedad es más que solo un mes. Nos comprometemos a honrar la historia, las comunidades, y las culturas negras; reconociendo y celebrando los logros de los afroamericanas, a nivel local y nacional durante el Mes de la Historia Negra y todo el año.

Kids with Cameras

A California Humanities Grant Project in Cloverdale

This 2021 project was made possible with support from California Humanities, a non-profit partner of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Visit www.calhum.org.

Cloverdale, California is known for its hot temperatures, active arts community, and popular wineries. It is also home to a large percentage of immigrant farmworkers; much higher than in surrounding cities. Of the fewer-than-9,000 people who live in this small town, 30% are Hispanic. If you look at just the K-12 student population, this number jumps to over 45%. As the public library, we are always looking for ways of engaging our diverse communities; especially those parts of our community that are under-represented.

We developed our program, Kids with Cameras: Stories of Covid, Resilience, and Hope for the Future, after talking with immigrant advocates, families, school board members, and other local leaders. Using the information gathered during our research and community assessment, we decided to focus on giving students the opportunity to develop digital literacy skills and then use those skills to share their Covid-19 stories with the greater community.

Ezequiel Guzman, President of Latinos Unidos Del Condado De Sonoma, an organization that promotes education, community responsibility, and empowerment of the Latinx community in Sonoma County, played a vital role by connecting us to the immigrant farmworker community in Cloverdale.

Bridget Hayes, Digital Literacy Specialist for the Sonoma County Library, presented three hands-on digital video workshops for children at the Cloverdale Family Apartments.

The ages of participants ranged from 8-16 years old. The parents of some of the younger participants stayed for the workshops and ended up being a big help! Bridget, a Spanish speaker, was able to communicate with parents who did not speak English. The students learned how to use the video equipment and then learned about storyboarding, lighting, composition, and editing. At that point, they were ready to put their skills to work and spent several days interviewing their friends and family members about life during the pandemic.

Not only did the students have fun learning new tech skills, but also they were able to help create a finished video sharing their stories with the greater community. We collaborated with the Alexander Film Society so the students and families were able to see their video on the big screen of a drive-in movie!

Mes de la Herencia Nativa Americana

La Biblioteca del Condado de Sonoma celebra el Mes de la Herencia Nativa Americana en noviembre. Según la descripción del Congreso de Gente Indígena Estadounidense, este mes es "un tiempo para celebrar las ricas y diversas culturas, tradiciones y historias y para darnos cuenta de las contribuciones importantes de la gente indígena." Nos unimos a la Biblioteca del Congreso, los Archivos Nacionales, la Institución Smithsonian, el Museo Estadounidense de la Memoria del Holocausto y miles de bibliotecas, escuelas y gobiernos locales mientras pagamos tributo a la ascendencia y tradiciones de gente nativa americana/indígena.

Los esfuerzos de revitalización cultural y autodeterminación de individuos indígenas y pueblos originarios es parte de una historia robusta. El Dr. Arthur Caswell Parker (Cattaraugus Seneca), un anthropólogo y historiador que fundó la Sociedad de Gente Indígena Estadounidense en 1911 y el NCIA en 1944 fue uno de los primeros que propuso un día para los "Primeros Estadounidenses." Parcialmente debido a los esfuerzos adicionales de Reverend Sherman Coolidge (Arapaho), Nueva York eligió el segundo sábado del mayo de 1916 para un "Día del Indígena Estadounidense." Varios otros estados seleccionaron varios otros días para observancias semejantes durante la primera mitad del siglo XX. No obstante, no fue hasta 1998 que el Día de Gente Nativa Americana cumplió pasar como un feriado estatal de California. El Presidente Joe Biden declaró el 11 de octubre de 2021 un feriado federal: el Día de la Gente Indígena.

Para más información sobre los esfuerzos actuales de naciones indígenas locales sobre la soberanía y revitalización, por favor vea:

Los autores se reconocen que son los descendientes no de gente nativa sino de colonos. Reconocemos la violencia histórica y continúa del colonialismo y afirmamos la soberanía indígena. Los edificios y locales de la Biblioteca están en tierras robadas. Seguimos responsabilizándonos por las necesidades de la gente indígena del condado de Sonoma, California y más allá. Serán bien recibidos los comentarios y redacciones de miembros de las naciones nativas, particularmente los Coast Miwok, Kashaya, Pomo y Wappo.
