Following on the success of the October 26 comedy night, The Sweet Spot is back with a new theme and an open invitation for Yale students to showcase their talents on The Underground stage! In this second installation of The Sweet Spot, the theme is acoustic and a cappella performances. Undergraduate, graduate, and professional students may register to perform. Performers may register as individuals or as groups. There will be limited sound gear on stage, so get creative. (Creativity is what makes The Sweet Spot so much fun!) Up to 10 minutes will be allotted for each performance.
Black Yale alumni with careers in media and journalism will come share about their experiences at Yale and beyond!
Come see YGC, RB, WORD, Sabro, Desta, Dzana, the Kappas, and more!

As part two of The House’s Black History Month event series about the Kaepernick & America documentary, we will co-host a Trumbull College Tea featuring Steve Wyche, the reporter who broke the Colin Kaepernick story. He will share about his career in journalism, and the impact that the media had and continues to have on the Kaepernick saga and racial politics in general. This event is co-sponsored by Trumbull College and the Yale Journalism Initiative.
Join us for a screening of the award-winning documentary Kaepernick & America. It was nominated as Best Sports Documentary by the Critic’s Choice Awards, was called “exemplary” in the New York Times, and premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. The documentary explores the life of Colin Kaepernick, former NFL quarterback and activist, as he took a stance against racism and police brutality. Following the screening, there will be Q&A with the co-producers, director, and the reporter who broke the Colin Kaepernick story.
All are welcome to the 2023 Powwow: Roots and Regrowth!

On the one-year anniversary of the Atlanta spa shootings, join us as we gather to remember the eight lives tragically lost to anti-Asian violence then and recognize the lives lost since. If you’re interested in saying a few words or sharing your reflection through a more creative form, there will be an open mic portion in the program for attendees to do so and you may indicate your interest via the registration form. This event is open to the public and all are welcome.

Signed on February 19, 1942, Executive Order 9066 had massive consequences for the Japanese American community during World War II. It led to the unjust incarceration of almost 120,000 Japanese Americans, two-thirds of whom were American citizens. The Day of Remembrance is an annual, nationwide tradition set on the anniversary of the Executive Order that commemorates this dark moment in US history to ensure that it does not happen again.
