• Community Event: MONARCH CONSERVATION (Tin Mountain Conservation Program)
  7pm • Zoom Meeting: https://zoom.us/j/94947161318 Meeting ID: 949 4716 1318
  The monarch butterfly population has declined by 90% over the past two decades, and the species is currently being reviewed for federal protection under the Endangered Species Act. Key threats to the species include loss of overwintering habitat in Mexico, loss of breeding habitat in the US and Canada, climate change, and disease. New Hampshire is one of many states across the species range to include the Monarch in their state wildlife action plan as a species of greatest conservation need. Monarchs represent one of the largest conservation efforts ever for a single species and there are many ways for individuals, communities, and conservation organizations to get involved. This workshop will explore monarch ecology and life cycles, information on conservation actions for monarchs and other pollinators, and an introduction to citizen science programs to help monitor the species.

TRACES of the TRADE Film Screening & Discussion

• Tue, Sept 15: 9am-noon & 5-8pm
• Fri, Sept 18: 9am-noon & 5-8pm

Co-sponsored by Jackson Public Library and Jackson Community Church. RSVP to JCC if interested in participating. This New England-based documentary screened at the Sundance Film Festival and has been featured on PBS Point of View. It traces a journey by several cousins into the dark past of the slave trade which enriched their white New England family. Dain Perry, one of the nine cousins, and his wife, Constance, screen the film and facilitate a conversation on race, reconciliation and healing. Traces of the Trade is both a geographical and psychological retracing of the industry of the largest slave traders in American history, the DeWolf family of Bristol, Rhode Island, and an exploration into racism in America, a legacy of slavery that continues to negatively impact the country even today. A primary debunked myth is that the North was the center of the abolition movement and had little to do with slavery. The fact is that the North was the center of the US slave trade, and the ownership of slaves in the north was not only common., but it lasted for over two hundred years. Join us for a film and conversation facilitated by the family members who participated in making the documentary.
