SUMMARY:History Café: The Democratizing Power of Radio
DESCRIPTION:A hundred years after it debuted\, radio broadcasting remains one of the most powerful communications tool for connecting people with news\, ideas and entertainment. The original “social media\,” radio united Americans in tough times of economic distress and war\, and happier times like the dawn of rock music and the rise of professional sports. In Washington\, radio was there for countless historic happenings – as well as mundane moments – and broadcaster and historian Feliks Banel has been studying and sharing this distinctive Northwest radio history for 20 years. From the earliest known recordings of local radio\, through the unique effects of “War of the Worlds” in the Evergreen State\, to chilling wartime bulletins and the years of lively Top 40 and beyond\, Feliks will share audio clips and photos to tell stories of radio in Washington. \nCome to History Café to discuss some of the pivotal moments in Washington radio history and explore the ways in which broadcasting has helped underserved communities throughout our state. \nASL Interpretation and CART captioning is available during the program through generous support of the Institute for Museum and Library Services. For additional accessibility support\, please contact programs@mohai.org. \nHistory Café is produced as a partnership between MOHAI and HistoryLink. Join MOHAI and HistoryLink on the third Wednesday of the month for a discussion about local history—both popular and obscure—and discover something new. \nDetailed information on how to participate will be provided via email following your registration.

SUMMARY:History Café: Poetry and Music from the Queer Native Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:Contemporary discussions about queer history often “unsee” Native people\, even when talking about race. \nIndigenous artists fabian romero (Purépecha) and raktahcú reewaki (Pawnee and Athabascan) use poetry and music to see Native queer people in the city of Seattle\, still the land of Coast Salish peoples. \nLearn how their collaboration and work expands what Seattle queer history means by weaving together the topics of diaspora\, borders\, race\, and ongoing settler colonialism. \nFor disability accommodations\, please contact programs@mohai.org two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:History Café: Saving the KIRO-TV Archive
DESCRIPTION:Television news has been called the first draft of history\, but collections of local news broadcasts are scarce. \nWhen KIRO-TV offered nearly 30 years of local television programming and daily broadcasts to the University of Washington for preservation\, the university used the opportunity to ensure an important primary resource was saved. \nJoin Hannah Palin\, the Moving Image Curator at the UW Libraries\, and Stephen Groening\, Assistant Professor of Cinema and Media Studies at UW\, for a discussion of the importance of local television news and how the University of Washington is working to help preserve this significant historical record. \nFor disability accommodations\, please contact programs@mohai.org two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:History Café: Untold Stories from the Chinese Exclusion Act Files
DESCRIPTION:For 61 years\, the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act barred Chinese laborers from entering the United States and prevented those who did from becoming naturalized citizens.

SUMMARY:History Café: The Seattles that Might Have Been
DESCRIPTION:What would Seattle be like with a comprehensive urban rail and subway system? Or a massive park stretching from the shores of South Lake Union to Denny Way? \nSeattle voters have rejected multiple visions of Seattle.

From Virgil Bogues’ 1911 plan for mass transit to the 1995 Seattle Commons proposal\, there have been countless visions of Seattle’s possible future ranging from the prosaic to the fantastical. \nJoin award-winning writer and journalist Eric Scigliano as he explores the Seattles that might have been. A former science writer at the University of Washington\, Scigliano has written on a wide of range of environmental\, political\, cultural\, and historical subjects for publications such as Harper’s\, Politico\, National Geographic\, New Scientist\, Discover\, the New York Times\, the Seattle Times\, Crosscut\, and more. \nFor disability accommodations\, please contact programs@mohai.org two weeks prior to the event.

SUMMARY:History Café: Capturing Bertha & the Biggest Tunnel in the World through Film and Photography
