A Silent Voice (2016), Anime Movie Night
The Anime Club@CSUMB invites you to join us for the long awaited, very special film screening of A Silent Voice (2016) an award-winning film directed by Naoko Yamada. This is a film that the club has been trying to share with the campus for several years and we are so excited to finally bring it to Cal State Monterey Bay as part of the 8th Annual Festival of Languages, Cultures and Ideas.
After transferring into a new school, a deaf girl, Shoko Nishimiya, is bullied by the popular Shoya Ishida. As Shoya continues to bully Shoko, the class turns its back on him. Shoko transfers and Shoya grows up as an outcast. Alone and depressed, the regretful Shoya finds Shoko to make amends. “A Silent Voice” is a moving coming-of-age drama that depicts the struggles of adolescence through its memorable characters and beautiful animation. (Synopisis by GKids).

Urinetown
Urinetown the musical is set in the not-so-distant future. A terrible water shortage and 20-year drought has led to a government ban on private toilets and a proliferation of paid public toilets, owned and operated by a single megalomaniac company: the Urine Good Company. If the poor don’t obey the strict laws prohibiting free urination, they’ll be sent to the dreaded and mysterious “Urinetown.” After too long under the heel of the malevolent Caldwell B. Cladwell, the poor stage a revolt, led by a brave young hero, fighting tooth and nail for the freedom to pee “wherever you like, whenever you like, for as long as you like, and with whomever you like.” A brilliant satire modeled off the plays of Kurt Weill and Bertolt Brecht, Urinetown is a wickedly funny, fast-paced, and surprisingly intelligent comedic romp.

Lecture Demonstration on Democracy
The Center for Teaching and Learning presents a Lecture-Demonstration on Democracy. In collaboration with faculty in the College of Business and the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Science and the Monterey Symphony Orchestra.
The event supports retention through experiential learning. A lecture demonstration is a format common in the performing arts in which scholars discuss a work and perform excerpts to illustrate or demonstrate concepts. The lecture-demonstration is interdisciplinary, including scholars in music, the humanities, and social science, and thus integrates multiple disciplines on a single, urgent topic: democracy. In addition, there will be a performance by CSUMB's own John Wineglass, Artist in Residence at the Monterey Symphony, at the Sunset Center. All are invited to attend.
The structure of the event includes a 1-hour presentation by scholars and performers, followed by a 30-minute interaction with the audience. A 30-minute reception after the lecture-demonstration…

Empathy in Action Film Screening
Going Inside: Empathy in Action is an award-winning documentary that explores rehabilitation through raw dialogue, vulnerability, and authentic connection between incarcerated individuals and members of the community. Filmed at the California Training Facility in Soledad, the film highlights personal growth, accountability, and the transformative power of seeing and treating people as human beings rather than labels.
The film is featured as part of Project Rebound's Second Chances Month programming. Second Chances Month is a nationwide initiative observed each April that raises awareness about the barriers people face after incarceration and uplifts stories of redemption, opportunity, and successful reentry. Through this screening, we aim to foster meaningful dialogue about healing, accountability, and the importance of creating pathways for second chances in our communities.
