SUMMARY:The Jewish Roots of Flamenco with Anna de la Paz
DESCRIPTION:Flamenco is an art form that arose in Spain\, influenced by various populations passing through or living in the southern region of Andalusia. Beginning in the third century BC\, Gypsies\, Sephardic Jews\, Christians\, and Moors all contributed to Andalusian culture. This presentation will discuss flamenco and its Jewish connection. Anna de la Paz is a Spanish dance artist specializing in classical and folkloric Spanish dances. After living in Spain and studying with such great master teachers as Mariemma and Pedro Azorín\, she moved to New York City in 1999 and began working with Gabriela Granados and American Bolero Dance Company. As a freelance artist\, she has performed throughout the New York area at various venues including Carnegie Hall. Anna de la Paz works in collaboration with mezzo-soprano Anna Tonna on many productions including\, “Music and Dance in the times of the Duchess of Alba (1762-1802)”\, created for the Hispanic Society of America in New York City. \n  \nShe is the creator and producer of her own shows\, which include Alegría Española\, Migración and Memorias\, and was on the creative team for Making Music Dance\, a cross-fusion of flamenco\, tap and world music. She was co-director of Walk to the Beat\, an annual improvisational music and dance festival in Nyack\, NY. In 2017\, Ms. de la Paz was invited to perform in the Canary Islands\, Spain at the Festival Atlántico in Gran Canaria. Anna de la Paz has been invited as a lecturer on Spanish dance at area colleges\, universities and symposia\, including the Foundation for Iberian Music’s international conferences on Enrique Granados in New York City and the “Transatlantic Malagueñas and Zapateados in Music Song and Dance” at University of California\, Riverside. In 2018\, Anna de la Paz co-founded with Anna Tonna\, Hispanic Culture Arts\, an arts education organization that brings the classical Spanish arts to the New York City schools. Current clients include PS 8 in Upper Manhattan\, the New York School for the Deaf and the Hispanic Society Museum and Library. Ms. de la Paz currently lives in Nyack\, NY with her husband and three children\, where she continues to teach\, produce and perform.

SUMMARY:End of Life Details Presentation and Discussion: The Discussion Everyone Needs But Often Avoids Until Too Late with Glenn Eisen
DESCRIPTION:Unnecessary grief and expenses are not unusual when some of life’s most important decisions are overlooked or past decisions are not reviewed\, updated and addressed. This presentation discusses the full range of issues about end of life issues. It is about living wills/advanced directives\, estate plans\, last wills and testaments and most of the other issues that might be important to consider. Changes in laws\, investments and family situations\, along with designated decision makers\, funeral venues and disposal of personal assets\, are all issues that need to be at least reviewed\, discussed and possibly resolved to avoid unnecessary stress and disputes between family members\, business associates\, healthcare providers and government agencies.

SUMMARY:The Disappeared of Guatemala
DESCRIPTION:“Guatemala has the dubious distinction of inventing the political condition of “disappearance” in late 20th century Latin America. In Guatemala’s long history of repressing its own citizenry\, forced disappearance is rooted in the 1954 US-backed overthrow of democratically elected President Jacobo Arbenz and was used throughout the military dictatorships that followed. Driven by a Cold War ideology that conflated group identity with real or imagined political beliefs\, three decades of successive military regimes expanded their repressive practices to include massive forced disappearances leading to a deliberate campaign of extermination of ladino (non-Maya) political activists and ultimately genocide of the Maya. This lecture traces state deployment of forced disappearance of opposition leaders in Guatemala from the 1966 mass disappearance of members of the Guatemalan Workers Party to the 1980 mass disappearance of union leaders in order to understand the systematic use of forced disappearance by a state so fragile that it disappeared children in the 1980s. Specifically\, I consider the case of Dr. Marvyn Perez who was forcibly disappeared and tortured by Guatemalan security forces when he was 14. More than 30 years later\, he continues to seek justice for himself and others who did not survive. \nVictoria Sanford is Professor of Anthropology and Founding Director of the Center for Human Rights and Peace Studies at Lehman College. She is a member of the Anthropology Doctoral Faculty at the Graduate Center and an Affiliated Scholar at the Center for the Study of the Holocaust\, Genocide\, and Crimes Against Humanity\, City University of New York. She holds a doctorate in Anthropology from Stanford University where she studied International Human Rights Law and Immigration Law at Stanford Law School. She was a Bunting Peace Fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Studies\, Harvard University.\n“
