Bloustein Lecture – Antisemitism in the Heartland: Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights

Bloustein Lecture – Antisemitism in the Heartland: Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights
Starts: 7:30 PM
Location: Douglass Student Center, 100 George St, New Brunswick, NJ 08901, USA

Hubert Humphrey was elected mayor of Minneapolis in 1945 and, in just three years, transformed it from being nationally notorious for its antisemitism and anti-Black racism to being nationally acclaimed for its concrete progress on civil rights. How Humphrey accomplished what he did is both dramatic as a part of history and instructive amid the present upsurge in antisemitism. Raised in a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant enclave in South Dakota, there was no intrinsic reason for Humphrey to devote so much of his public life to battling against racial and religious discrimination.

Samuel Freedman will discuss his new book, Into the Bright Sunshine: Young Hubert Humphrey and the Fight for Civil Rights, which examines this obscure chapter of Humphrey’s life. It foretells the man who was President Lyndon B. Johnson’s right hand in pushing through the landmark civil rights laws of the mid-1960s and provides a powerful and useful analogue to today’s struggles.

******************

The Ruth Ellen Steinman Bloustein and Edward J. Bloustein Memorial Lecture series focuses on three main themes. One area of exploration is the study and preservation of animal species and the natural environment. A second theme celebrates love, happiness, and laughter as tools of clinical medicine. The third topic seeks to explore and promote humane values, which Ed Bloustein believed were woven in the fabric of Judaic tradition and passed down from generation to generation.

Health Administration Grand Rounds: Leading in Difficult Times: The power of low-ego and high-drive leadership

Health Administration Grand Rounds: Leading in Difficult Times: The power of low-ego and high-drive leadership
Starts: 1:00 PM
Location: Virtual

Presented by Amer Kaissi, Ph.D., Professor of Health Administration, Trinity University and Executive Coach

Each semester, the Bloustein School Health Administration program hosts a nationally-recognized speaker to deliver research "grand rounds.” All students, faculty, and community members are welcome to attend. In the post-Covid world of emotional exhaustion, staffing shortages and financial challenges, improving employee engagement and sparking their innovation and creativity is an uphill battle for most leaders. In this session, Amer shows that leaders who have the confidence to make hard decisions in uncertain environments and the humility to admit mistakes, can better connect with their team members, while empowering them to integrate novel ideas into how they solve problems. Building on the latest research evidence and his experience as a coach with high-level executives, he makes a convincing argument that humbitious and open-minded leadership is the best way to lead in difficult times. He provides specific take-home behaviors for leaders to implement immediately and transform the way they lead.

NO RSVP NEEDED, see the email to join by Zoom
