Both the exhibition and novel focus on women and motherhood across time and geography. During each meeting of the book club, we will pair artwork from the exhibition with chapters from the book to connect deeply with the themes and expand our understanding of the objects and the story. </p><p><strong>Stanley Reads</strong> is led by<strong> </strong>Kimberly Datchuk, curator of learning & engagement and is presented in partnership with Prairie Lights Books.</p><p><strong><em>Homegoing </em></strong>begins in Ghana in the eighteenth century. It follows the lives of two half-sisters and eight generations of their descendants, those who endured enslavement in America and those who remained in Africa. The powerful story shows the deep and lasting effects of slavery. </p><p>Yaa Gyasi was born in Ghana and raised in Huntsville, Alabama. She earned an MFA from the Iowa Writers’ Workshop. <em>Homegoing</em> won the PEN/Hemingway Award and the NBCC’s John Leonard Award. It is Gyasi’s first novel. </p><p><strong>Register for Stanley Reads: </strong><a href="https://uiowa.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3VR83aPIweoUmHz">https://uiowa.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3VR83aPIweoUmHz</a></p><p>Once registered, you will receive invitations to all Stanley Reads events.</p><p><strong>September 19</strong></p><ul><li>"Effia" (pp. 1–26)</li><li>"Esi" (pp.27–48)</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>October 3</strong></p><ul><li>"Quey" (pp. 49–86)</li><li>"James" (pp. 87–109)</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>October 17</strong></p><ul><li>"Kojo" (pp. 110–131)</li><li>"Abena" (pp. 132–152)</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>October 31 </strong>(led by Derek Nnuro)</p><ul><li>"H" (pp. 155–175)</li><li>"Akua" (pp. 176–197)</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>November 14</strong></p><ul><li>"Willie" (pp. 198–220)</li><li>"Yaw" (pp. 221–241)</li><li><br></li></ul><p><strong>December 5</strong></p><ul><li>"Sonny" (pp. 242–262)</li><li>"Marjorie" (pp. 263–282)</li><li>"Marcus" (pp. 283–299)</li><li><br></li></ul><p>Individuals with disabilities are encouraged to attend all University of Iowa-sponsored events.

Immigrant Foodways: Czech Christmas menu: Pea soup and schnitzel with potato salad
<p>This holiday season, learn how to make a traditional Czech meal and lots of desserts from Czech-born Chef Tom Slepicka. Join us for our first Czech and Slovak Christmas Cooking and Baking Series, and enjoy a premier cooking class from the comfort of your home.</p><p>Let’s celebrate with this traditional Czech Christmas pea soup and the little bit more modern Czech Christmas meal, Schnitzel with Homemade Potato Salad.</p><p>Pea soup is one of the most traditional Christmas meals in the Czech Republic. The current practice calls for it to be served as an appetizer before a main course. Schnitzel originated in Italy and by the mid-19th century got to Vienna, the capital of the Austrian Empire. The Viennese removed the traditional use of Parmesan and made a few other changes to the original recipe, and the traditional Viennese schnitzel was born. Because the Czech and Slovak Republics were once part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, this dish remains popular in the Czech Republic’s culinary culture. The Czech name for this meal is “Řízek”, and is commonly prepared from chicken, pork, or veal.</p><p>As a side dish, we are going to prepare Czech potato salad totally from scratch.</p><p>Note: Suitable for vegetarians – simply replace the schnitzel with fried cheese. This class is 3.5 hours long.</p><p>Slepicka graduated from culinary school in his hometown, Brno, located in the Czech Republic. While still in school, he established a successful full-service catering company which operated in the Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, and Austria. Slepicka moved to the U.S. with his wife in 2014. From 2015-16, he operated the Czech Deli at the NewBo City Market. The goal of his courses is to make tasty and high-quality meals accessible to everyone. </p> 2020-11-23 18:00:00 -060012/05/202:30 p.m.National Czech & Slovak Museum & LibraryCedar Rapids -

Immigrant Foodways: Vánočka
<p>This holiday season, learn how to make a traditional Czech meal and lots of desserts from Czech-born Chef Tom Slepicka. Join us for our first Czech and Slovak Christmas Cooking and Baking Series, and enjoy a premier cooking class from the comfort of your home.</p><p>Vánočka is often called “Houska” in the USA. The name “vánočka” comes from “Vánoce”, which means Christmas in Czech. It is a scrumptious sweet bread with raisins and almonds which is very common to serve on Christmas morning in the Czech Republic. (Remember, Christmas morning in the Czech Republic is December 24.) It can be served plain, with butter, or with butter and preserves/jam. Because it is very delicious, people buy it in the Czech Republic all year long.</p><p>Note: Suitable for vegetarians</p><p>Slepicka graduated from culinary school in his hometown, Brno, located in the Czech Republic.
