S2E3 Basque History in the Western US

This presentation will give a glimpse into the unique history of the Basques from the late 19th century to current day, their immigration throughout the world and their impact on their communities, especially in Idaho. You will get a preview of Spain and France prior to so many Basques leaving the area as well as the incredible tourist destination it has become. You will also learn about the hardships Basques faced throughout the entire immigration process as well as their perseverance as they established themselves in the many communities in the western United States. Finally, attendees will learn about the Basque’s impact on local communities and how one can be part of the Basque community in Idaho and beyond.

The Basque Museum & Cultural Center shares the story of the Basques in the Basque Country and their immigration and their establishment in the West in an effort to empower people of all backgrounds to explore points of connection and reflect on the common dignity of the human experience.

Bio: A fourth generation Basque-American, Annie was born and raised on a cattle ranch in the small northern Nevada town of Paradise Valley. She attended a small three-room grade school until 9th grade when she was bussed into Winnemucca for the remainder of High School. As a participant in Student Council and High School Athletics, Annie found that her time was always spent working with many other people. She carried that habit to Boise where she attended Boise State University and graduated with a degree in Spanish with minors in Basque Studies and Business. She also joined the Oinkari Basque Dancers and served as a board member, dance director and liaison for 10 years. Her connections with Oinkaris and the wonderful Basque community in Boise opened great opportunities for study and travel in the Basque Country as well as job opportunities on the Basque Block. Annie has worked in some form of education since college, and was hired at the Education Program Specialist for the Basque Museum & Cultural Center in the summer of 2013. In 2016, she was asked to lead the organization as the Executive Director to continue the success of preserving, promoting and perpetuating Basque history and culture for generations.

S3E13 Beyond Fake News: News Literacy and the Informed Citizen

S3E13 Beyond Fake News: News Literacy and the Informed Citizen

In the age of information, why is so hard to be a well-informed citizen? Developing our news literacy can help us navigate the media landscape, and that means more than checking facts and spotting hoaxes. Yes, facts are important, but we also need a broader understanding of how news and information are produced and consumed in the digital age. What’s happening to real news, and how is it constructed? Are you in a filter bubble, and how can you break out? Are you the customer or the product in the attention economy, and how can citizens reclaim their power? Drawing on history, psychology, sociology, and politics, this conversation can help you increase your news literacy and teach others to do the same. Learn more by reading "News Literacy and Democracy,” available from Amazon and Routledge. Watch the video here.
