SUMMARY:Uncovering the Legacy of Poverty in America
DESCRIPTION:In 2019\, researchers began conducting immersive interviews in Appalachia\, Texas\, and seven southern states in an attempt to determine the causes of “place-based disadvantage.”  \n“In place after place\,” they write\, “we discovered astonishing stories about the industries that fueled the rise of our nation\, the workers who sustained them\, and the histories of human suffering they wrought.” \nKathryn Edin\, William Church Osborn Professor of Sociology and Public Affairs at Princeton University\, and Timothy Nelson\, lecturer in the Department of Sociology at Princeton\, will present findings featured in their new book\, The Injustice of Place: Uncovering the Legacy of Poverty in America. \nEdin\, one of the nation’s leading poverty researchers\, has authored eight books and some 60 journal articles. Her book\, $2 a Day: The Art of Living on Virtually Nothing in America\, was met with wide critical acclaim and was included in The New York Times 100 Notable Books of 2015\, cited as “essential reporting about the rise in destitute families.” \nShe is PI of the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study. In 2014\, she was elected to both the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Political and Social Sciences. She was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2019. \nNelson is the author of numerous articles on low-income fathers and is the co-author\, with Edin\, of the book\, Doing the Best I Can: Fatherhood in the Inner City. \nThis lecture is made possible through an endowment from the Arthur Sulzberger Family. Please join us for a reception immediately following the talk.

SUMMARY:Celebrating the Contribution of Developmental Psychology to Public Policy
DESCRIPTION:This event will celebrate the achievements of two distinguished scholars\, Dr. Anna Gassman-Pines and Dr. Jennifer Lansford\, who have been recognized with prestigious awards from the American Psychological Association’s Division 7 for their outstanding contributions to the field of developmental science. Both Gassman-Pines and Lansford have demonstrated an unwavering dedication to the field of developmental psychology\, leveraging their research to drive positive change in society\, particularly for the well-being of children and families. \nGassman-Pines received the highly acclaimed 2024 Mavis Hetherington Award for Excellence in Applied Developmental Science. This recognition honors her exceptional commitment to advancing the well-being of children\, families\, and organizations through her scholarly contributions and applied developmental science. She is a professor in the Sanford School of Public Policy and the Department of Psychology & Neuroscience and is a faculty affiliate at the Duke Center for Child and Family Policy. \nLansford was awarded the esteemed 2024 Mary Ainsworth Award for Excellence in Developmental Science. This honor acknowledges her exceptional scientific merit and groundbreaking work\, which has opened new empirical and theoretical areas within developmental psychology and fostered interdisciplinary connections. Lansford is the director of the Duke Center for Child and Family Policy and a research professor at the Sanford School of Public Policy. \nDuring this event\, Gassman-Pines will share her research on how work hours and income instability shaped families’ experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her talk will include some of the unconventional policy approaches that were tried during the pandemic which provide insight about ways to help stabilize families going forward. \nLansford will discuss child protection in the U.S. and internationally\, showcasing data from the Parenting Across Cultures Project\, a longitudinal study of families in nine countries which began in 2008. She will describe aspects of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals that are focused on child protection\, how countries are trying to achieve child protection goals (e.g.\, legal bans of corporal punishment)\, No Hit Zones in the U.S.\, and parenting programs that have been implemented to improve children’s well-being by reducing violence against them. \nPlease join us for a reception after the talk.

SUMMARY:The Best of Enemies - Film Screening for Educators
DESCRIPTION:Join educators from across NC as we come together to view The Best of Enemies – the true story of the unlikely relationship between Ann Atwater\, an outspoken civil rights activist\, and C.P. Ellis\, a local Ku Klux Klan leader. During the racially charged summer of 1971\, Atwater and Ellis come together to co-chair a community summit on the desegregation of schools in Durham\, N.C. The ensuing debate and battle soon lead to surprising revelations that offer lessons for educators for both the past and the present.
