Welcome to my daily learning journal. Here is today’s list:
1. Ted Talk – Sean Sherman: Why aren’t there more Native American restaurants? Fascinating talk.
2. Cataract Surgery – Dr. Uday Devgan – 1269: chandelier lighting for a tough case. Superbly well-done.
3. Andrew Lee MD – Familial hyperlipidemia syndromes and Ophthalmology.
4A. Alice Schroeder, The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life (2008). Chapter 31.
Filled with life lessons on investing, honesty, and integrity. This is a must-read for any Warren Buffett fan!
4B. Renya Ramirez – Standing Up to Colonial Power: The Lives of Henry Roe and Elizabeth Bender Cloud (New Visions in Native American and Indigenous Studies). Chapter 1 (pages 21-42) on Henry Roe Cloud’s childhood.
Getting ready for next week’s webinar on Henry Roe Cloud!
5. “In honor of Native American Heritage Month, the Yale Club of Washington, DC invites you to a virtual event about Yale’s first Native American Alum: Henry Roe Cloud, who graduated with a BA in psychology and philosophy in 1910, and earned an MA in anthropology from Yale in 1914. Our speakers are Professor Renya Ramirez, Cloud’s granddaughter and a professor of anthropology at UC Santa Cruz, and Dr. Ravi Goel ’93, who donated a collection of documents, photos and manuscripts about Cloud to Yale.”
Look forward to the special event on Election Day, Tuesday November 2, from 6:30 pm – 7:30 pm. Registration is here.
