SUMMARY:Dr. Nikhil Anand: "Waterlines: Uncertainty and the Future Urban"
DESCRIPTION:The IHR Research Cluster on Race\, Violence\, Inequality\, and the Anthropocene presents Dr. Nikhil Anand Associate Professor of Anthropology University of Pennsylvania. \nNikhil Anand’s research focuses on the political ecology of urban infrastructures\, and the social and material relations that they entail. He is the author of Hydraulic City: Water and the Infrastructures of Citizenship in Mumbai (Duke\, 2017). His talk is based on a new project that focuses on the uncertain boundaries of land and water in Mumbai\, looking at how sea level rise and struggles over coastal property intersect with the livelihoods of coastal people. \nThe IHR Research Cluster will also host an off-campus Dinner Salon with Dr. Anand later that evening to discuss his afternoon talk and Amitav Ghosh’s The Great Derangement. The dinner salon will start at 6pm. Please email Mayanthi Fernando (mfernan3@ucsc.edu) by Saturday May 20 to RSVP for the salon and to get the Ghosh reading.

SUMMARY:Film\, Photography\, and the Scientific Record
DESCRIPTION:The IHR Research Cluster on Race\, Violence\, Inequality\, and the Anthropocene presents \nFilm\, Photography\, and the Scientific Record\nA reading seminar with Dr. Gregg Mitman \nWe will read two chapters by Gregg Mitman and Faye Ginsburg from Documenting the World: Film\, Photography\, and the Scientific Record\, edited by Gregg Mitman and Kelley Wilder (University of Chicago Press\, 2016). Documenting the World concerns the material and social life of photographs and film made in the scientific quest to document the world. Mitman’s chapter investigates the many lives of a 1926 Harvard expedition film shot in Liberia; Ginsburg’s chapter explores the repurposing of Nazi medical films by disability activists. Both chapters examine what can happen when colonial and totalitarian impulses to collect\, classify\, and control are repurposed by those whose ancestors were once the objects of that documentary gaze. \nFor the readings and more information\, contact mfernan3@ucsc.edu

SUMMARY:The Land Beneath Our Feet: A film by Sarita Siegel & Gregg Mitman
DESCRIPTION:Event Photos: \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n  \nThe IHR Research Cluster on Race\, Violence\, Inequality\, and the Anthropocene presents \nThe Land Beneath Our Feet: A film by Sarita Siegel & Gregg Mitman \nThe Land Beneath Our Feet\, a film by Sarita Siegel & Gregg Mitman\, follows a young Liberian man\, uprooted by war\, who returns from the USA with never-before-seen footage of Liberia’s past. The uncovered footage is embraced as a national treasure. Depicting a 1926 corporate land grab\, it is also an explosive reminder of eroding land rights. In post-conflict Liberia\, individuals and communities are pitted against multinational corporations\, the government\, and each other in life-threatening disputes over land. What can this ghostly footage offer a nation\, as it debates radical land reforms that could empower communities to shape a more diverse\, stable\, and sustainable future? \nThe film showing will be followed by a conversation with Gregg Mitman & Donna Haraway. \nRSVP Here \nFor more information\, contact: mfernan3@ucsc.edu \nCo-sponsored by: Institute for Humanities Research\, Institute of the Arts and Sciences\, Center for Creative Ecologies\, Science and Justice Research Center\, and Center for Emerging Worlds \nClick here for Directions & Parking for the Digital Arts Research Center (DARC) \n  \n\n  \nReading seminar with Dr. Gregg Mitman \nFilm\, Photography\, and the Scientific Record \nJanuary 10\, 2017 @ 11:30 am – 1:30 pm \nHumanities 1\, Room 210
