 \n\n\n\n\nBOOK DESCRIPTION: \nA vibrant new vision of food justice that ce
 lebrates Black food and recognizes the power of gathering to create sustai
 nable\, systemic change. \nFood justice is defined as the understanding th
 at our food system is unequal and that something needs to be done about it
 . But how can we create a world where everyone has enough? What does it me
 an to truly nourish ourselves and our communities?  \nIn Gather\, anthr
 opologist Ashanté M. Reese argues for a vibrant new vision of food justic
 e that places Black communities at the center and offers us a visionary\, 
 delicious path forward. Reese reveals that to truly create equity in our f
 ood systems\, we must embrace the abundance that already exists around us
 —and recognize that the social body is as important as our individual he
 alth  \nGather presents rich\, on-the-ground stories of gathering arou
 nd food in four spaces—gardens\, family reunions\, repasts\, and protes
 ts. Blending rich storytelling with analysis\, these chapters argue for th
 e political power of food and invite us to learn from the tactics Black co
 mmunities have long used to create sustainable\, systemic change.  \nTher
 e are no simple solutions to the problems of acute need. But by recognizin
 g that food justice is already all around us\, we can start working togeth
 er to create a more nourishing\, joyful world. Gather is an intimate a
 nd urgent invitation to embrace local power\, build better food systems\, 
 and nourish ourselves\, body and soul.  \nBIOS: \nAshanté Reese is an A
 ssociate Professor of African and African Diaspora Studies at the Universi

 nks\n\nDate: Thursday\, September 17\, 2026 Time: 6:00 p.m.Venue: Muñoz 
 Waxman Gallery at the Center for Contemporary Arts - 1050 Old Pecos Trail\
 , Santa Fe\, NM 87505  This event will also be streamed on YouTube Live
  - no registration required. \n\n\nWhat happens when someone who holds a 
 lifetime of cultural and spiritual knowledge chooses to share parts of tha
 t wisdom so it can live beyond him?  \nBeginning in the late 1970s\, anth
 ropologist William Hanks spent years working in Oxkutzcab\, Yucatán\, whe
 re a chance conversation with Maya ritual expert and healer Sebastián Cas
 tillo Mo (known as Don Chabo) grew into an extraordinary relationship. See
 ing that his knowledge needed to live beyond his own lifetime\, Don Chabo 
 took Hanks on as an apprentice\, intentionally teaching him the parts of h
 is practice that could be passed on.  \nIn a deeply personal lecture\, Ha
 nks takes us inside that apprenticeship and the world Don Chabo shared wit
 h him: a world inhabited by humans\, spirits\, and other beings\, in which
  words\, gestures\, places\, and ritual actions carried profound power. Ha
 nks will reflect on how Don Chabo taught\, what he believed could and coul
 d not be transmitted\, and what it means to carry another person's knowled
 ge after they are gone.  \nPart remembrance\, part exploration of Maya sp
 iritual practice\, the evening offers a rare window into a relationship th
 at changed both teacher and student.  \nFrom Dr. Hanks:   In the course
  of ethnographic fieldwork in the municipio of Oxkutzcab\, Yucatan\, betwe
 en 1977 and 1996\, I came to work very closely with a Maya hmèen ritual e
 xpert\, shaman (lit. 'do-er')\, named Sebastian Castillo Mo\, known locall
 y as Don Chabo (deceased 1996). What started as a fortuitous conversation 
 developed into an apprenticeship in which Don Chabo explicitly undertook t
 o teach me the teachable parts of his frankly charismatic practice\, in or
 der that the knowledge be passed on and live on after his own death. This 
 lecture aims to give the audience a sense of the world of being and beings
  that Don Chabo lived in\, a deeply spiritual world organized around basic
  principles\, occupied by human\, spirit\, and 'natural' beings. It unfold
 s in three parts: (1) the relationship between Don Chabo and me\, includin
 g notes on Don Chabo’s teaching style\, (2) a brief sketch of some of hi
 s main commitments regarding the spatiotemporal organization of the world 
 of being\, and (3) a selective sketch of the verbal and corporeal register
  in which he moved spirits.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWILLIAM HANKS earned t
 he Joint PhD in Linguistics and Anthropology at The University of Chicago 
 (1983)\, where he remained as a professor in both departments until 1996. 
 Since 2000\, he has held the Berkeley Distinguished Chair in Linguistic An
 thropology at UC Berkeley\, served as Chair of the Anthropology Department
 \, (2001-2006) and as founding Director of Social Science Matrix\, Berkele
 y’s flagship research institute for cross-disciplinary social science (2
 013-19). A former Guggenheim Fellow (1996)\, he received the Gumperz Award
  for Lifetime Achievement from the International Pragmatics Association (2
 025) and was elected corresponding member of the Académie des Inscription
 s et Belles Lettres\, Institut de France (2025). \nHis research combines s
 ocial anthropology\, linguistics and history\, with a focus on Maya langua
 ge and culture in Yucatan Mexico where he has conducted 36 months of archi
 val and field work among Maya speakers. He is the author of numerous artic
 les and books\, including REFERENTIAL PRACTICE\, LANGUAGE AND LIVED SPACE

DESCRIPTION:Register\n\nSAR Member Field Trip  \n\n\nBears Ears\, East to 
 West \n\nOctober 14 -18\, 2026    \n\n\nJoin an intimate group of y
 our fellow SAR members and leading archaeologists\, Winston Hurst and Jo
 nathan Till on a five-day\, four-night journey through the Bears Ears and 
 Cedar Mesa region of southeastern Utah. Departing from Santa Fe\, we will 
 travel as a group from SAR to the Desert Rose Inn in Bluff\, UT\, our home
 base for the duration of the trip. We will be partnering with Wild Expedit
 ions Outfitters throughout the week for transportation and access to a wid
 e range of sites throughout the region. \nThe Bears Ears cultural landscap
 e is greater than the monument’s bounds. This program gives participants
  an experience with that broader landscape. We start with a visit to the E
 dge of the Cedars State Park Museum to review the material culture of the 
 Mesa Verde region. Our second day reaches east to consider some of the lat
 est and earliest Pueblo occupations in the area\, including the massive ea
 rly Pueblo I village called Brew 13. The following day lands our tour on C
 edar Mesa itself\, with beautiful views of the Bears Ears buttes and oppor
 tunities to investigate Ancestral roads that transect the mesa top. Our fo
 urth day affords the group an exploration of sites in a deeply incised por
 tion of Butler Wash\, including a visit to Ball Room Cave\, a deep alcove 
 on Comb Ridge that harbors dramatic cultural features. Our final day ponde
 rs Chacoan landscapes and petroglyph imagery. \nThe whole of the program f
 ocuses mainly on the Puebloan occupation of the Bears Ears region\, and sp
 ans over 600 years of Ancestral history from AD 600 to 1280. We will also 
 lean heavily into the history of the Chaco Phenomenon\; some of the larger
  sites that we will visit will include this powerful tradition. While we w
 ill sometimes focus on artifacts and architecture immediately in front of 
 us\, participants in this program will be asked to step back\, way back\, 
 and consider where we are in relation to places distant on the horizon and
  sometimes\, even\, beyond. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWinston Hurst has been a
 ctively engaged in the archaeology of the Four Corners region since 1973. 
 During those decades\, he led numerous survey and excavation projects\, co
 llaborated with Crow Canyon Archaeological Center many times\, held a cura
 torship at the Edge of the Cedars State Park Museum\, and conducted resear
 ch into various aspects of northern San Juan archaeology and history inclu
 ding ancient Basketmaker/Puebloan communities\, ceramics and roads\; Navaj
 o migration and settlement\; Anglo-American history\, and application of L
 iDAR technology to identification of ancient integrative and farming lands
 cape features. See some of his papers and publications. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
 \n\nJonathan Till has been an archaeologist in the northern Southwest for 
 over 30 years and is currently the curator for Edge of the Cedars State Pa
 rk Museum in Blanding\, Utah. With a long-standing interest in the Ancestr
 al communities of the northern Southwest\, his experience lies mostly in t
 he larger Four Corners region\, but spills into western and central Utah a
 nd northern Arizona. Till’s interests include the Chaco Phenomenon\, as 
 well as the broad spectrum of material culture contained in the landscapes
  of the Mesa Verde region. Jonathan has an MA in Anthropology from Univers
 ity of Colorado\, Boulder. He played the tuba in high school and has a dog
  named Bourbon. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDifficulty Level: Moderate - While the m
 ajority of the sites we will visit will be on relatively-flat\, easily-tra
 versed terrain\, a short distance from the parking area\, there will be ti
 mes when longer distances and ascending moderate inclines will be involved
 . Many of our lunches will be boxed lunches to be enjoyed out in the field
  on camping stools\, so some physical flexibility will be required. Bathro
 oms will often be scarce on this trip\, so the ability to wait for bathroo
 ms or find alternative solutions is needed. If you have any questions or a
 re unsure if this trip is the right fit for your agility level\, please co

 cos Trail\, Santa Fe\, NM 87505 \n\n\n\n\nCo-presented with the Gault Foun
 dation \n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us for a screening of The Stones Are Speaking\,
  an award-winning documentary about archaeologist Mike Collins and a decad
 es-long effort to study the Gault Archaeological Site in Central Texas. On
 ce heavily looted\, the site ultimately yielded evidence of human presence
  dating back some 20\,000 years\, adding to a growing body of research cha
 llenging long-held archaeological timelines for the peopling of the Americ
 as.  \nPart biography\, part archaeological mystery\, the film follows Co
 llins and the community of volunteers and professionals who worked to safe
 guard the site and understand what it could reveal. But the story also rai
 ses questions that extend well beyond one archaeological discovery: Who ge
 ts to interpret the deep past? How should archaeological knowledge evolve 
 as new evidence emerges?   \nFollowing the screening\, stay for a convers
 ation with one of the film’s main experts\, Tom Dillehay\, and others\, 
 that places the film in a broader context and invites us to think critical
 ly about archaeology\, cultural heritage\, and the ways we continue to rec
 onsider our past.  \nThe Stones Are Speaking premiered at the Austin Film
  Festival\, where it received the Audience Award for Texas Independent Fea
 ture\, and made its broadcast debut on PBS in 2025.  \n\n\nSponsors\n\n\n
