Description : Cultural Appropriation is the adoption of certain elements from another culture without the consent of people who belong to that culture. Genuine interest in other cultures is not to be discounted. The sharing of ideas, traditions, and material items is what makes life interesting and helps diversify the world. It is the intention that remains most important and something everyone can remain conscious of as we learn from others.

Description : Good partnerships are key to building strong bonds between campuses and communities, but how do we make sure they’re healthy, balanced, and effective? This week on #CompactNationPod we discuss partnerships in principle and in practice. Emily shares a fascinating new study from Iowa Campus Compact about how nonprofits perceive higher education and learn more about the University of Nebraska Omaha’s innovative Barbara Weitz Community Engagement Center. Plus, Compact conference season continues as Andrew shares some great tidbits from the Eastern Region Campus Compact Conference. Members of the UNO and CEC community volunteered their time to contribute to the compact's mission and sharing information about university and community collaboration/partnerships. The Compact Nation Podcast features "conversations with leading community engagement professionals and discussions of new research and innovative work in the field." https://soundcloud.com/compactnationpodcast/partnerships-that-actually-work

Description : OPL Outreach staff attended four classes to discuss The Hate U Give and how to translate the theme(s) into facilitated discussions with UNO students in class with UNO faculty Dr. Panos. The entire class attended the Omaha Reads event with Inclusive Communities at the CEC and eagerly participated in the break-out groups. The event, also an Omaha Table Talk, discusses the parallels between the novel "The Hate U Give" and the realities of today's world and was co-hosted by Inclusive Communities. Each year, Omaha Public Library (OPL) invites the community to vote for and read one book as a way to promote literacy and inspire discussion among Omaha and Douglas County residents.
