todd from EarthDiverse

EarthDiverse is pleased to announce two upcoming courses (available globally via Zoom) that begin in January:

1. A Brief History of the Ukraine: The war in Ukraine has changed the global political landscape of Europe, directing attention at a part of the world whose history and culture is not always known. This course introduces students to modern Ukrainian history. It covers the Russian Revolution, the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic within the USSR, the period of “indigenization,” the collectivization of agriculture and the Ukrainian famine, the Second World War, the Brezhnev era, Ukrainian independence, the Revolution of Dignity, and the confrontation with Russia. There are six consecutive weekly Zoom sessions, with time for questions & discussion. Begins Fri 13 Jan 2023, 3:00-4:30pm (NZ time), Zoom Only. US time Zone equivalent: begins Thu 12 Jan 6-7:30pm Pacific, 9-10:30pm Eastern. Check the course page for other time zone equivalents around the world.

2. An Introduction to the History of Japanese Anime: Anime is a global phenomenon, a source of Japanese national pride, and a pastime for countless people around the world. In this course, we explore the origins of how pictures in Japanese visual art evolved into the modern form of anime and how this has influenced the national psyche. 4 consecutive weekly sessions (both in-person in Hamilton or available via Zoom). Begins Sat 21 Jan 2023, 4-6pm (NZ time). US time Zone equivalent: begins Fri 20 Jan 7-9pm Pacific, 10pm-12am Eastern. Check the course page for other time zone equivalents around the world.
