The objectives of SSBC\u2019s burns also include the enhancement of Tribal cultural resources such as food-producing plants and basketmaking materials.<\/p>\n<p>The Sierra-Sequoia Burn Cooperative (SSBC) is a collaborative partnership of four California Native American Tribes, the Sierra Foothill Conservancy, UC Cooperative Extension, several private landowners, fire practitioners, and historical and scientific researchers in Fresno and Madera counties. The SSBC partnership operates with funding from the Sierra Nevada Conservancy and the California Community Foundation, with additional support from the The Nature Conservancy and the Huntington-USC Institute on California and the West.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                        \n                    <\/div>\n\n\n                    \n                        \n                            \n<div class=\"f--field f--image\">\n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n              \n      <img decoding=\"async\"\n                            src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/icw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/42\/2023\/10\/Screen-Shot-2023-10-20-at-10.19.25-AM-768x797.png\"\n                    sizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 50vw, (min-width:768px) 100vw, 100vw\"\n        \n                  role=\"none\"\n        \n        \n                                      \/>\n\n    \n    \n  \n  \n\n<\/div>\n\n                    \n                <\/div>\n\n            \n                <div class=\"card\">\n\n                    <div class=\"title-description\">\n\n                                                      \n<div class=\"f--field f--cta-title\">\n\n    \n  <h3>\n          ICW Announces New Exhibit at Union Station: \u201cWhere You Stand: Chinatown 1880 to 1939\u201d\n      <\/h3>\n\n\n<\/div>\n                        \n                                                        \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <div class=\"x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">October 2023<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">The ICW\u2019s Union Station Installation in Partnership with Metro Art is now open!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">In collaboration with historian Greg Hise\u00a0and friends at the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/chssc.org\/\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/chssc.org\/\">Chinese Historical Society of Southern California<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/huntington.org\/\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https:\/\/huntington.org\/\">The Huntington<\/a>, and USC Cinema, the <strong>Chinatown History Project<\/strong> blends historical research with creative website and augmented reality experiences to recover the neighborhood of the original Chinatown of Los Angeles.<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n                        \n                    <\/div>\n\n\n                    \n                        \n                            \n<div class=\"f--field f--image\">\n\n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n    \n              \n      <img decoding=\"async\"\n                            src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/icw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/42\/2023\/11\/84275a98-41d0-7c04-b59a-b22fcab70ed4-768x1024.jpg\"\n          srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/icw\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/42\/2023\/11\/84275a98-41d0-7c04-b59a-b22fcab70ed4-768x1024.jpg 768w\"          sizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 50vw, (min-width:768px) 100vw, 100vw\"\n        \n                  role=\"none\"\n        \n        \n                                      \/>\n\n    \n    \n  \n  \n\n<\/div>\n\n                    \n                <\/div>\n\n            \n                <div class=\"card\">\n\n                    <div class=\"title-description\">\n\n                                                      \n<div class=\"f--field f--cta-title\">\n\n    \n  <h3>\n          Welcome to Eryn Hoffman as ICW&#8217;s new Operations Director\n      <\/h3>\n\n\n<\/div>\n                        \n                                                        \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p>October 2023<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ICW is excited to welcome Eryn Hoffman as Operations Director<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, supporting the exploration and scholarship of history and culture of California and the west.
