"How to Be a Better LGBTQ+ Ally" with Presenter Katie Slivovsky

The words seem simple: “all men are created equal,” and endowed with the rights of “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Yet people in every era since have grappled with them. Elizabeth Cady Stanton used them as a starting point. Lincoln regarded them as the essential definition of America. Southern secessionists said they were false. Frederick Douglass called them hypocritical.&nbsp;
Join Joyce Haworth as she recounts the influence of the Declaration over the last 250 years.

The Declaration of Independence Through the Centuries with presenter Joyce Haworth

In the mid 1970s, these three cultural forces collided and changed pop culture forever. Just a decade earlier, the Bee Gees were known for their Beatlesque pop harmonies. But while disco music was building a loyal underground following, the Bee Gees were reinventing themselves as a white rhythm and blues band. Then came Saturday Night Fever. &nbsp;The film, starring John Travolta, didn’t just capture a scene; it ignited a nationwide phenomenon and propelled disco into the American mainstream. Using music and video clips, we’ll explore the pop-culture moment that reshaped our nightlife, dancing, fashion and music.
And yes, White Oak Library District has a disco ball!&nbsp;<a href="https://whiteoak.librarycalendar.com/event/bee-gees-saturday-night-fever-disco-music-presenter-gary-wenstrup-76538" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Please Register</a>

Illinois is the nation’s railroad crossroads. This not only shaped the state’s economy and communities but created an industry with a cultural allure. The speeding locomotive was a real-life representation of progress, and people gathered trackside to marvel at the big city opulence represented by an Illinois-built Pullman car. Rail workers were seen as heroic as they faced an extremely dangerous occupation. The railroad became a cultural symbol, reflected in advertising, cinema, and children’s toys.
Join speaker, historian, writer, and community organizer (with a passion for Illinois labor history!), Michael Matejka for an engaging presentation about Romeoville, Chicagoland, and Illinois railroad history. This event is generously sponsored by the <a href="https://ilhumanities.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Illinois Humanities</a> "Road Scholars Speakers Bureau" in which speakers travel across Illinois to bring art, culture, history, and contemporary social issues to life, making the humanities accessible to all!<a href="https://whiteoak.librarycalendar.com/event/whats-coming-down-line-railroad-american-mind-michael-matejka-66214" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Please Register</a>
