“Get Together: 1969 and the Music of the ’60s”
presented by Craig Werner ’74
Craig Werner, the son of late CC Professor Ray O. Werner, taught Afro-American studies and American cultural history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison until his retirement earlier this year. A longtime member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominating committee, his books “A Change Is Gonna Come: Music, Race and the Soul of America” and “We Gotta Get Out of This Place: The Soundtrack of the Vietnam War” are widely recognized as authoritative works on American rock and soul.
“Instructions on Parting”
Over the course of one tumultuous year, artist and director Amy Jenkins ’88 confronts the cancer diagnoses of her mother, sister, and brother, and also welcomes her first child to life. Crafted in a unique visual style, the film weaves breathtaking vignettes of nature unfolding with cinéma vérité family footage to lead us to a bold and daring acceptance of our own mortality (on-parting.com).
Freedom and Authority
Join CC faculty members for a lively discussion of the United States Bill of Rights that will both renew our sense of the urgency of this founding document and honor the memory of Professor Emeritus of History Bill Hochman, who analyzed the Bill of Rights many times over his 54 years of teaching at CC.
