SUMMARY:Visualizing Abolition: Abolition Then and Now w/ Isaac Julien and Robin D.G. Kelley
DESCRIPTION:Abolition Then & Now with historian and cultural theorist Robin D. G. Kelley and artist and filmmaker Isaac Julien\, co-presented with McEvoy Foundation for the Arts\, is the next event in Visualizing Abolition. \n \nAbolition Then & Now features Robin Kelley and Isaac Julien in conversation about the anti-slavery movements of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries and current abolitionist uprisings against racist police brutality and the prison industrial complex. This event coincides with the presentation of Julien’s Lessons of the Hour\, 2019\, a ten-screen film installation that explores the legacy of Frederick Douglass and his vision for abolition in relationship to contemporaneity\, at McEvoy Foundation for the Arts in San Francisco. A composite version of that moving and monumental artwork will be screened for 24-hours online prior to the event. \nThis event is part of The Humanities Institute’s yearlong series on Memory. \nFor the 2020/21 academic year\, UC Santa Cruz Institute of the Arts and Sciences\, in collaboration with Professor Gina Dent\, feminist studies\, has organized a year-long series of online events featuring artists\, activists\, scholars\, and others united by their commitment to the vital struggle for prison abolition. \nThe events of Visualizing Abolition accompany Barring Freedom\, a bi-coastal exhibition of art featuring Sonya Clark\, American Artist\, Dread Scott\, Deana Lawson\, Chandra McCormick and Keith Calhoun\, Sharon Daniel\, Sanford Biggers\, and other artists whose practices creatively confront the failure of many to see the racist biases within the criminal justice system or to comprehend the economic and social problems that the system serves to obscure. Barring Freedom will be on view at San José Museum of Art late October 2020-March 21\, 2021. \nVisualizing Abolition is organized by UC Santa Cruz Institute of the Arts and Sciences in collaboration with San José Museum of Art and Mary Porter Sesnon Art Gallery. The series has been generously funded by the Nion McEvoy Family Trust\, Ford Foundation\, Future Justice Fund\, Wanda Kownacki\, Peter Coha\, James L. Gunderson\, Rowland and Pat Rebele\, Porter College\, UCSC Foundation\, and annual donors to the Institute of the Arts and Sciences. \nPartners include: Howard University School of Law\, McEvoy Foundation for the Arts\, Jessica Silverman Gallery\, Indexical\, The Humanities Institute\, University Library\, University Relations\, Institute for Social Transformation\, Eloise Pickard Smith Gallery\, Porter College\, the Center for Cultural Studies\, the Center for Creative Ecologies\, and Media and Society\, Kresge College.

SUMMARY:In Vitro: Film Screening and Conversation
DESCRIPTION:IN VITRO | Larissa Sansour & Søren Lind\, 2019 (TRAILER) from Spike Island – Productions on Vimeo. \nJoin the Center for Cultural Studies Colloquium for a special screening of the film\, In Vitro\, after which Peter Limbrick (UCSC professor of Film and Digital Media) will moderate a discussion with filmmakers Larissa Sansour and Soren Lind. \nIn Vitro is a 2-channel Arabic-language sci-fi film filmed in black and white. It is set in the aftermath of an eco-disaster. An abandoned nuclear reactor under the biblical town of Bethlehem has been converted into an enormous orchard. Using heirloom seeds collected in the final days before the apocalypse\, a group of scientists are preparing to replant the soil above. \nIn the hospital wing of the underground compound\, the orchard’s ailing founder\, 70-year-old Alia\, played by Hiam Abbass\, is lying in her deathbed\, as 30-year-old Alia\, played by Maisa Abd Elhadi\, comes to visit her. Alia is born underground as part of a comprehensive cloning program and has never seen the town she’s destined to rebuild. \nThe talk between the two scientists soon evolves into an intimate dialogue about memory\, exile and nostalgia. Central to their discussion is the intricate relationship between past\, present and future\, with the Bethlehem setting providing a narratively\, politically and symbolically charged backdrop. \nRSVP by 11 AM on Wednesday\, December 2nd to receive Zoom link and password. \n \n______________________________________________________________________________________________ \nLarissa Sansour was born in 1973 in East Jerusalem\, Palestine\, and studied fine arts in London\, New York and Copenhagen. Central to her work is the dialectics between myth and historical narrative. In her recent works\, she uses science fiction to address social and political issues. Working mainly with film\, Sansour also produces installations\, photos and sculptures. \nSansour’s work is shown in film festivals and museums worldwide. In 2019\, she represented Denmark at the 58th Venice Biennial. She has shown her work at Tate Modern\, MoMA\, Centre Pompidou and the Istanbul Biennial. Recent solo exhibitions include Copenhagen Contemporary in Denmark\, Bluecoat in Liverpool\, Bildmuseet in Umeå and Dar El-Nimer in Beirut. Sansour currently lives and works in London\, UK. \nSoren Lind (b. 1970) is a Danish author\, artist\, director and scriptwriter. With a background in philosophy\, Lind wrote books on mind\, language and understanding before turning to art\, film and fiction. He has published novels\, shorts story collections and several children’s books. \nLind screens and exhibits his films at museums\, galleries and film festivals worldwide. His work was shown at the Danish Pavilion at the 58th Venice Biennial. Other recent venues and festivals include Copenhagen Contemporary (DK)\, MoMA (US)\, Barbican (UK)\, Nikolaj Kunsthal (DK)\, Berlinale (D)\, International Film Festival Rotterdam (NL) and BFI London Film Festival (UK). He lives and works in London. \nThis event is part of The Humanities Institute’s yearlong series on Memory. \nThe Center for Cultural Studies hosts a weekly Wednesday colloquium featuring work by faculty and visitors. The sessions consist of a 40-45 minute presentation followed by discussion. We gather at noon\, with presentations beginning at 12:15 PM. Participants are encouraged to bring their own lunches; the Center provides coffee\, tea\, and cookies.* \nAll Center for Cultural Studies events are free and open to the public. Staff assistance is provided by the Humanities Institute. \n*2020-2021 colloquia will be held virtually until further notice.

SUMMARY:Adrian Staub - Word frequency and predictability effects in reading: Some outstanding puzzles
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Linguistics is pleased to present Adrian Staub of the University of Massachusetts speaking on word frequency and predictability effects in reading: some outstanding puzzles \nAbstract:  \nA word’s context-independent frequency and its context-dependent predictability both influence eye fixation durations in reading. In this talk I’ll discuss recent work investigating some questions about relationship between these two effects. One question is why manipulations of the two variables demonstrate strictly additive effects on fixation duration measures. A possibility is that they influence separate processing stages; predictability may facilitate early visual and orthographic processing\, while frequency influences a later stage of lexical retrieval. If so\, the two effects should show different patterns of interaction with effects of stimulus degradation\, e.g.\, visual contrast. However\, two large experiments show that frequency and predictability demonstrate similar patterns of near additivity with effects of visual contrast and font difficulty\, providing no support for the two-stage hypothesis. A second question is whether there is a correlation\, at the level of individual readers\, between the size of frequency and predictability effects. Evaluating correlations between by-subject slopes in Bayesian mixed-effects models reveals that the answer is scale-dependent: Effects of the two variables on raw gaze duration show a positive correlation\, but effects on log gaze duration do not. This is probably because the correlation is due primarily to a relationship between reading speed and effect size\, which is neutralized by the log transformation. I’ll discuss how these results constrain our understanding of how the two variables influence lexical processing. \n\nAdrian Staub works in psycholinguistics\, which focuses on the cognitive processes involved in language comprehension and production. He is interested in how we analyze the grammatical structure of sentences in the course of language comprehension\, how we recognize words\, and how these processes work together. In many of his experiments\, participants’ eye movements are monitored as they read sentences in which syntactic structure has been manipulated; he directs the UMass Eyetracking Laboratory. His personal web page\, including a list of publications\, is here. \nZoom information will be emailed on Thursday\, December 3\, 2020.

SUMMARY:Ezra Klein and Will Davies: Living in a Frayed Democracy
DESCRIPTION:The Peggy Downes Baskin Ethics Lecture – Ezra Klein and Will Davies: Living in Frayed Democracy \nWe’re all impacted by this deeply polarized moment. How do we navigate life while political and cultural divisions are dangerously amplified and the world’s oldest democracies are under threat? \nThe Humanities Institute at UC Santa Cruz is honored to announce a trans-Atlantic political dialogue for this year’s Peggy Downes Baskin Ethics Lecture. We’ve invited two of our top cultural and political thinkers—Ezra Klein and William Davies—to help us grapple with how we got here\, why we live in such fraught times\, ways the US and UK are analogues in this fractious moment\, and where we might go from here. \nRegister \n  \nZoom link provided upon registration \n\nEzra Klein is the editor-at-large and founder of Vox\, the host of the award-winning podcast\, The Ezra Klein Show\, and the author of the best-selling book\, Why We’re Polarized. Before that\, he was columnist and editor at the Washington Post\, a policy analyst at MSNBC\, and a contributor to Bloomberg. He’s written for the New Yorker and the New York Review of Books\, and (most importantly) is a UC Santa Cruz alumnus. \nWilliam Davies is Professor of Political Economy at Goldsmiths\, University of London. He is author of several books\, most recently This Is Not Normal: The Collapse of Liberal Britain and Nervous States: Democracy and the Decline of Reason. He is a regular contributor to the London Review of Books and The Guardian\, and has also written for The New York Times\, New Republic and The Atlantic. \nThe Peggy Downes Baskin Ethics Lecture is made possible through the generous support of the Peggy Downes Baskin Humanities Endowment for Interdisciplinary Studies in Ethics.

SUMMARY:Rebecca Tollan: Competing Argument Privileges in Niuean
DESCRIPTION:The Department of Linguistics is pleased to present Rebecca Tollan from the University of Delaware speaking on competing argument privileges in Niuean. \nAbstract:  \nGrammatical “subjects” have long been shown to have a privileged linguistic status\, as compared\nwith other arguments\, in the processing of long-distance dependencies (e.g.\, Holmes & O’Regan\,\n1981)\, in the resolution of ambiguous anaphoric pronouns (Gordon et al.\, 1993; Grosz et al.\,\n1995\, a.o.) and in formal syntactic operations (cf. Keenan & Comrie\, 1977). In this talk\, I unpack\n“subjecthood” into two components: semantic agentivity (connected with structural superiority in\nthe thematic domain of the syntax) and case unmarkedness (defined as the case with the widest\nsyntactic distribution)\, and show how these two factors can independently influence the outcome of syntactic and pragmatic operations. This focus is on two experimental studies of the ergative-\nabsolutive Polynesian language Niuean. The goal of these studies is to investigate operations in which the “subject” of a sentence has previously been shown to be privileged\, based upon\nfindings from nominative-accusative languages in which agentivity and unmarkedness align:\nfirst\, the “subject advantage” in the processing of long-distance dependencies and second\, the\npreference for subject antecedents in the interpretation of anaphoric pronouns. Niuean reveals\nthat\, in the formation of long-distance dependencies – where the task is to link a filler with a gap\nsite and form the relevant dependency – syntactic information about argument distribution (i.e.\,\nunmarkedness) is most crucial because it maximizes chances of correctly locating the gap site.\nMeanwhile\, in the resolution of ambiguous anaphoric pronouns\, agentivity plays a more\nprominent role: the more agentive argument of a preceding clause is preferred as the referent of a\npronoun as compared with a less agentive one. These studies demonstrate the underlying factors\nwhich often cluster together to derive the grammatical function of “subject”. \nZoom Information: Will be emailed on Thursday\, December 10\, 2020

SUMMARY:Christmas with Dickens
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, December 13th at 4 pm for a performance you won’t want to miss! \nCharles Dickens just wants to talk about his book\, A Christmas Carol\, but what happens when spirits begin to show up? Is Dickens being guilt-tripped by his estranged wife\, Catherine; haunted by the Ghost of Christmas Present; regretting his portrayal of Ebenezer Scrooge? And what is Queen Victoria doing there? It’s full of chaos\, confusion\, conflict\, and complaints\, just like a typical holiday gathering. \n \nThe UCSC Dickens Project presents\, via Zoom\, an original readers’ theater piece written by JoAnna Rottke and directed by Karen Schamberg. Readers will be Andrew Davids\, Frank Widman\, Martha Rabin\, Sarah Kauffman Michael\, Chris Rich\, and Mark Messersmith. A Q&A session will follow the performance. \n\nJoAnna Rottke spent her best years as Assistant Director of the Dickens Project\, a research program at UCSC devoted to the life and works of Charles Dickens. She knows more about Dickens than she’d like to admit. JoAnna now works as an Adoption Counselor for the Santa Cruz SPCA and is a huge fan of tiny dogs.

SUMMARY:Slugs and Steins: Reading Dickens Today with Professor John Jordan
DESCRIPTION:These days\, 150 years after his death in 1870\, it is nearly impossible for a week to go by without coming across some reference to Dickens in a news article\, movie review\, magazine essay\, or crossword puzzle clue. The adjective “Dickensian” has entered common parlance throughout the English-speaking world as a way of characterizing certain kinds of people\, places\, and social problems. Film\, television\, and theatrical versions of Dickens’s novels continue to appear with surprising frequency\, most recently the 2019 film adaptation of David Copperfield\, directed by Armando Ianucci and featuring a multi-racial cast. Dickens\, it seems\, is still very much alive in 2020. In his UCSC Alumni Association talk\, Professor John Jordan speculates about the reasons for Dickens’s enduring afterlife and explores some of the ways in which Dickens remains important and relevant for 21 st -century audiences. \n \n\nJohn Jordan is a Research Professor of Literature at UCSC and Director of the Dickens Project\, an international multi-campus research consortium headquartered at Santa Cruz. He has edited or co-edited several books on Dickens and is the author of Supposing Bleak House (2010).

SUMMARY:Revisiting The Koza Uprising in Global Perspectives/ オンラインセミナー「コザ騒動を世界の視点で」
DESCRIPTION:Fifty years ago this December\, Okinawan protests against US military rule turned violent for the first and\, so far\, only time. On the anniversary\, the Okinawa Memories Initiative will host a public discussion about the “Koza Riots\,” featuring an eyewitness photojournalist\, an American army veteran who had been stationed in Okinawa and two Okinawan American scholars reflecting on race and the meaning of the event fifty years on in the days of Black Lives Matter. \n \nThe event will kick off with remarks from Alan Christy\, Director of the Okinawa Memories Initiative. We will then journey to Okinawa\, where we will hear from Kazuo Kuniyoshi\, who will discuss Mr. Kuniyoshi’s experience on the streets of Koza as a photojournalist and resident of the city on the night of December 20\, 1970. Their conversation will feature photographs taken by Mr. Kuniyoshi that night as well as a tour of the district as it is today. The conversation will continue between Stan Rushworth and Dustin Wright\, Associate Director of OMI\, who will discuss Mr. Rushworth’s experiences as an American soldier stationed in Okinawa during the Vietnam War. Finally\, we will hear from Alexyss McClellan-Ufugusuku and Wesley Ueunten who will discuss the meaning of the Koza Riot/Uprising from the perspective of the global Okinawan diaspora. The program will also feature music by Wesley Ueunten\, Francis Wong and Scott Oshiro as interludes between interviews. \n50年前の12月、沖縄には怒りが溢れていたといいます。そして、その感情は、交通事故という小さなきっかけからコザ“暴動”へと膨れ上がりました。 \nオキナワ・メモリーズ・イニシアティブでは、コザ暴動が起きてちょうど５０年となる１２月20日、朝９時半から１１時までオンラインでイベントを開催します。コザ“暴動”を実際に取材した写真家國吉和夫さん、沖縄に駐留した経験のある退役米軍人、沖縄系アメリカ人の研究者など多彩なゲストを招き、コザ“暴動”が起きた背景、その後の沖縄への影響、さらに、コザ“暴動”を通して、ブラック・ライヴズ・マター（Black Lives Matter）など現在世界に波及する人種差別抗議運動についても考えます。ぜひご参加ください。 \nオンラインセミナー参加には登録が必要です。 \n以下のフォームにお名前、メールアドレスを入力し、提出ください。 \n後日、登録されたメールに参加に必要なリンクをお送りします。 \n当日は、そのリンクをクリックしてください。 \n参加は、議論をただ聞いていただくのでもいいですし、質疑応答も受け付けます。 \n\nStan Rushworth was born during WW2\, and served in the military in Okinawa during the early years of the Vietnam War. He has lived and worked in highland Guatemala\, Hawaii\, and has been teaching English in Northern California for the last 30 years\, with focus on Indigenous issues. He is the author of Sam Woods American Healing (1991)\, Going to Water: The Journal of Beginning Rain (2014)\, and Diaspora’s Children (2020). He is a citizen of the Chiricahua Apache Nation\, is married\, and is a grandfather. \nDustin Wright is a historian (UC Santa Cruz\, 2015)\, co-director of the Okinawa Memories Initiative\, and assistant professor in the School of World Languages and Cultures at California State University\, Monterey Bay. His work has been published in Gastronomica\, The Japan Times\, The Sixties\, Critical Asian Studies\, and Sekai (世界). He is currently writing a book tentatively titled Protest Nation: Anti-Base Struggle and the Fight for Peace in Modern Japan. \nAlexyss McClellan-Ufugusuku is a PhD student in the History Department at UC Santa Cruz and serves on the leadership team for the Okinawa Memories Initiative. Lex is a mixed-race Shimanchu from San Diego and her research focuses on the politics of formal Indigenous people’s recognition for the Shimanchu (Ryukyuan) people by the government of Japan and the United Nations. She has a forthcoming article in The Avery Review about the July Fourth party outbreak of the coronavirus in Uchinaa as framed through the UN Declaration on the Rights on Indigenous Peoples. \nPlease stay tuned for  Kazuo Kuniyoshi\, Tomoko Kubota\, and Wesley Ueunten bios coming soon. \n\nThe Humanities Institute is exploring the theme of Memory. We encourage everyone—current students\, alumni\, staff and community members—to join us for what will be an insightful and informative event. \nOrganized by the Okinawa Memories Initiative and co-sponsored by the Humanities Institute.
