HHRC Presents: "They're Enemies of the State!" The Fate of LGBTQ+ People Under Nazi Rule
HHRC Presents: "They're Enemies of the State!" The Fate of LGBTQ+ People Under Nazi Rule
March 5, 2024 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Online (Register for Link)
REGISTER HERE: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/author-and-scholar-dr-jake-newsome-tickets-814379008537?aff=oddtdtcreator
The Holocaust and Human Rights Center of Maine welcomes Dr. Jake Newsome on the evening of Tuesday, March 5th for a virtual talk entitled "They're Enemies of the State!" The Fate of LGBTQ+ People Under Nazi Rule.
Drawing on archival material, Dr. Newsome sketches the lived experiences of members of the German LGBTQ+ community under Nazi rule. In doing so, he untangles the complex motivations that convinced Nazi leaders that combating homosexuality was vital to the success of the Third Reich. The result was the destruction of the vibrant gay communities that had emerged during the Weimar years, and the targeting, torture, and murder of tens of thousands of gay Germans. And while the Holocaust ended with the defeat of Nazi Germany in May 1945, gay survivors soon learned that the era of state sanctioned persecution was not over.
Dr. Jake Newsome is an award-winning scholar of German and American LGBTQ+ history whose research and resources educate global audiences. He is the founder and director of the Pink Triangle Legacies Project, which honors the memory of the Nazis' queer victims and carries on their legacy by fighting homophobia and transphobia today through education, advocacy, and empowerment. His book, Pink Triangle Legacies: Coming Out in the Shadow of the Holocaust (Cornell University Press) traces the transformation of the pink triangle from a Nazi concentration camp badge into a widespread emblem of LGBTQ+liberation, pride, and community. In addition to serving as a historical advisor for film projects, exhibits, and plays, Newsome has been invited by the French, UK, and US governments to speak about the important lessons that LGBTQ+ history has for all of us today. He works as a museum professional and currently lives with his husband and son in San Diego.
This event is open to anyone who wants to attend (all students, faculty, staff, and the general public). FMI: hhrcmaine.org

We are hosting a documentary film viewing and panel discussion of a new documentary called PTSD911.
The event is free, open to all members of the UMA community and the public. This event is a collaboration between the UMA Mental Health and Human Services Program and Kennebec Behavioral Health. The event sponsors are Kennebec Behavioral Health/Augusta Project Recovery, the UMA-UMF Human Services Training Grant and the UMA Student Government Association (SGA).
The event is being held in the UMA Farber Forum in Jewett Hall, on the Augusta Campus on Thursday, March 7, 2024.
Doors open at 5:30 p.m. The film will start at 6:30 pm and there will be a panel discussion afterwards with the film's director, Conrad Weaver, and one of the first responders in the film. There will be people available during showing to support anyone who might be triggered by any of the content presented in the film. This film would be a good learning opportunity for students who plan to work in roles as first responders or who will be collaborating with first responders.
Film description:
First Responders sign up to serve; they risk their lives and their mental health to respond to someone’s worst day. Who will rescue them? PTSD911 is a powerful new documentary film that tells this story from first hand accounts with first responders themselves. PTSD911 is a documentary film about real people: normal, average human beings who have chosen to work in professions that require above average heroism, fortitude, and resolve. These individuals have jobs that require a willingness to face things that most of us can’t even imagine, yet maintain a high level of dignity and professionalism. First responders in fact repeatedly see and experience things that most of us will never see, causing compound issues related to post-traumatic stress injuries and disorders.

UMA Lewiston Center AND Online (Register for Zoom link)
Register for Zoom link: https://forms.gle/KXkTDEkKrCA9SqNK8
We will be offering tours of the dental lab immediately following the event for anyone who attends in-person.
The UMA Dental Health Programs offers an Expanded Functions Dental Assisting (EFDA) program; this program includes two semester long courses taught by a local dentist with the assistance of an Expanded Functions Dental Assistant. In the Fall preclinical semester of EFDA, the course includes an online lecture with on campus laboratory sessions scheduled on Fridays. During this phase of the program, students complete a variety of expanded function skills on a typodont with direction from the course instructors as well as mentoring from a sponsoring dentist.Upon successful completion of the Fall semester pre-clinical coursework, students are allowed to advance into the spring semester where they will complete their clinical EFDA requirements. During this clinical semester students are allowed to perform EFDA skills on a patient under the direct supervision of a sponsoring dentist. The fall semester typically requires approximately 5-10 hours of time in a practice outside of a student’s work schedule to complete the laboratory course requirements. This requirement is in addition to the lecture component, which typically requires 4-8 hours a week.
This event is open to anyone who wants to attend (all students, faculty, staff, and the general public).

UMA Faculty & Staff Drop-In Focus Session for Research Support & Development
UMA Faculty & Staff Drop-In Focus Session for Research Support & Development
March 29, 2024 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Online (Link in description)
Join the Zoom here.
This twice-weekly one-hour Zoom meeting room allows staff and faculty a focused time and space to work on research and writing.
After a 5-minute opening in which participants can check in with each other, propose breakout groups for co-working if they choose, or attend to other logistics, 50 minutes of quiet, focused time will begin. During this time, please respect the focused atmosphere of the group and support the work of your peers by prioritizing your own research and/or writing, and keeping your mic (and possibly video) muted to reduce distractions. If you need to communicate with group members, please do so using the chat feature, or using the RD&S GChat group chat.
At the conclusion of the hour, participants can check in for five minutes to discuss their progress and give each other kudos for their hard work.
This event is for UMA faculty and staff (not open to the general public). FMI: Amy Rahn, amy.rahn@maine.edu
