Lecture | Beyond Green Growth
In 2015, the United Nations announced a document known as ‘Transforming our World: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development’, which is built around the Sustainable Development Goals. The Agenda stresses the need to change our development path. Indeed, the existing development models do not fit this new agenda, and several alternatives have been proposed. Among those, the discourse of “green growth” has gained ground in governance deliberations and policy proposals. It is presented as a fresh and innovative agenda centered on the deployment of engineering sophistication, managerial acumen, and market mechanisms to redress the environmental and social derelictions of the current development models. But can the green growth project deliver environmental sustainability, social justice and the achievement of economic life upon a materially finite planet? The presentation will bring examples of cities and focus the discussion on alternative models of urban development.

Author Reading | Deirdre Cooper Owens discusses her book Medical Bondage: Race, Gender, and the Origins of American Gynecology
Deirdre Cooper Owens wrote her book to reveal the historical connections of slavery to the development of professional American women's medicine. She explores how concepts like blackness, health, and biological sameness and difference were shifting as well as being defined by white medical men intent on advancing their careers and "fixing" women's ailments. As some doctors repaired so-called broken bodies, categories that confined black women to only being thought of as strong were cemented in antebellum medical thought and practice.

Lecture | Jewish Spirits in Afro-Brazilian Religions
Coinciding with Brazilian Carnival, this multimedia presentation will look at interaction of Jewish and Brazilian cultures through the lenses of Umbanda, the Afro-Brazilian religion. While Americans and Europeans drew inspiration from alternative spirituality of India and Tibet, Brazilians found a native mystical blend of Umbanda. There were multiple waves of Jewish immigration to Brazil: from Portuguese Crypto Jews of 16th and 17th centuries and Moroccan Jewish Amazon rubber boom workers of late 19th century, to Eastern European immigrants of the 20th century. Each of these waves influenced Umbanda, a syncretic Afro-Brazilian religion that celebrates, among others, the spirits of Jewish rebels, sages, and sex workers. The presentation will include excerpts from video footage of Umbanda spirit possession ceremonies and Brazilian films with Jewish themes. A Q&A will follow. Presenter Alex Minkin is an independent scholar and social activist, focusing his research on Brazilian culture.

Author Reading | Leslie Cohen reads from her book This Love Story Will Self-Destruct
Follow Eve and Ben as they navigate their twenties on a winding journey through first jobs, first dates, and first breakups; through first reunions, first betrayals and, maybe, first love. This is When Harry Met Sally reimagined; a charming tale told from two unapologetically original points of view. With an acerbic edge and heartwarming humor, debut novelist Leslie Cohen takes us on a tour of what life looks like when it doesn't go according to plan, and explores the complexity, chaos, and comedy in finding a relationship built to last.

Classical Music | Play-Along: "Adagietto" from Mahler's Fifth Symphony
Make a Valentine’s Day date with your sweetheart, tune up your strings, and help drown the Library in the sounds of love and romantic passion. As the legend goes, the sublime fourth movement of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony was written as a wordless love letter from the composer to his new, young bride, the infatuating Alma. Among the treasures of the Library’s collections is a copy of the Fifth Symphony, hand-written in lavender pencil by Alma Mahler. The Library invites all string players and harpists to join this community orchestra, led by New York Youth Symphony conductor Michael Repper, and play the famous "love letter" Adagietto, in celebration of Valentine’s Day. See the Library’s Alma Mahler manuscript, plus Leonard Bernstein’s annotated Mahler 5 conductor’s score from the New York Philharmonic archives.
