SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Nick Estes and Melanie Yazzie: Beyond the End of the World Sawyer Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Humanities Institute and the Center for Creative Ecologies present Beyond the End of the World Lecture Series \nNick Estes is a citizen of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe. He is an Assistant Professor in the American Studies Department at the University of New Mexico. In 2014\, he co-founded The Red Nation\, an Indigenous resistance organization. For 2017-2018\, Estes was the American Democracy Fellow at the Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History at Harvard University. His research engages colonialism and global Indigenous histories\, with a focus on decolonization\, oral history\, U.S. imperialism\, environmental justice\, anti-capitalism\, and the Oceti Sakowin. Estes is the author of the book Our History Is the Future: Standing Rock Versus the Dakota Access Pipeline\, and the Long Tradition of Indigenous Resistance (Verso\, 2019)\, which places into historical context the Indigenous-led movement to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline. He edited with Jaskiran Dhillon the volume Standing with Standing Rock: Voices from the #NoDAPL Movement (University of Minnesota\, 2019)\, which draws together more than thirty contributors\, including leaders\, scholars\, and activists of the Standing Rock movement. \nMelanie K. Yazzie (Bilagáana/Diné) holds a Ph.D. in American Studies from the University of New Mexico\, and is is Assistant Professor in the Department of Native American Studies and the Department of American Studies\, University of New Mexico. She specializes in violence\, biopolitics\, water\, Navajo/American Indian history; (neo)liberalism; settler colonialism; Indigenous feminisms; Native American studies; social movements; urban Native experience; political ecology; queer Indigenous studies; Marxist theories of history\, knowledge\, and power; and theories of policing and the state. Her first book\, Life in The Age of Extraction: Diné History in A Biopolitical Register\, shows how biopolitical calculations of Navajo life that accompanied the introduction of extractive economies in the 1930s have become a full-scale biopolitical epoch defined by violent relations of extraction. With Nick Estes\, she guest-edited a special issue of Wicazo Sa Review (June 2016) on the legacy of Dakota scholar Elizabeth Cook-Lynn\, one of the founders of Native American studies\, and co-edited a special issue of Decolonization: Indigeneity\, Education and Society with Cutcha Risling-Baldy on Indigenous water politics (2018). \nBeyond the End of the World comprises a year-long research and exhibition project and public lecture series\, directed by T. J. Demos of UCSC’s Center for Creative Ecologies. The project brings leading international thinkers and cultural practitioners to UC Santa Cruz to discuss what lies beyond dystopian catastrophism\, and asks how we can cultivate radical futures of social justice and ecological flourishing. Funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation John E. Sawyer Seminar on the Comparative Study of Culture.

SUMMARY:MAH Film Night: Radical Futurisms (Part I Rescreen)
DESCRIPTION:Gather ’round your home screen and watch films from a diverse group of visionaries on topics and themes related to our current exhibition\, Beyond the World’s End. \n \nJoin curator TJ Demos for a virtual introduction and (re)screening of films originally shown last month at the Del Mar Theater that seek to offer points of light in a dark world. \nHow are visual artists imagining radical futures? How can the traditions of oppressed peoples become the foundation of the future? How can social justice and ecosystems flourish going forward? How can we escape our current climate of catastrophe and anxiety and instead transform the present into a radical future by asking what is “not-yet”? \nShown in conjunction with our exhibition Beyond the World’s End\, this three-part film series is part of a year-long research and exhibition project and public lecture series. Directed by T. J. Demos of the Center for Creative Ecologies\, and including the collaboration of UCSC PhD Mellon fellows Isabelle Carbonell and Chessa Adsit-Morris\, it brings leading international thinkers and cultural practitioners to UC Santa Cruz to discuss what lies beyond dystopian catastrophism\, and how we can cultivate radical futures of social justice and ecological flourishing. Funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation John E. Sawyer Seminar on the Comparative Study of Culture. For more information visit BEYOND.UCSC.EDU \n\nSchedule \n6:50pm – Screening opens. Space is limited to the first 100 people to sign into the Zoom meeting.\n7:00pm – Welcome from MAH Staff\, followed by an introduction from guest curator TJ Demos.\n7:15pm – Film program will begin\, followed by a 20 min open conversation on zoom. \nThe Zoom link will be sent out at 2pm & 6:40pm on event day to all that RSVP’d via Eventbrite.
