SUMMARY:Roxanne Euben - The Power of Humiliation: Rhetoric\, Retaliation and Resistance
DESCRIPTION:From Trump to ISIS to the Arab uprisings\, invocations of humiliation pervade the political landscape. But what does ‘humiliation’ mean exactly\, and how does it work rhetorically? In this lecture on her current research\, Professor Roxanne Euben develops an account of humiliation anchored in the way people actually use it in language\, with a particular focus on Islamist rhetoric about the ‘humiliation of Islam’ and invocations of humiliation during the 2011 Egyptian Uprising. These cases illustrate broad patterns in how humiliation constructs collective powerlessness\, but also how it operates to demand dramatically different responses. \nRoxanne L. Euben (University of Pennsylvania) is a political theorist whose research has helped pioneer a new area of inquiry often referred to as “comparative political theory.” This is an understanding of political theory not as coextensive with Euro-American canonical texts ‘from Plato to NATO\,’ but rather as inclusive of intellectual traditions and practices of the “non-West” and global South\, as well as of indigenous traditions in\, but not of\, “the West.” Euben’s special area of expertise and research is Muslim and Euro-American political thought\, and her scholarship has addressed such topics as Muslim cosmopolitanism; jihad; martyrdom and political action; travel and translation; gender and humiliation; shared perspectives on science and reason; the politics of visual and verbal rhetorics; and digital time. She is the author of Enemy in the Mirror: Islamic Fundamentalism and the Limits of Modern Rationalism (Princeton\, 1999)\, Journeys to the Other Shore: Muslim and Western Travelers in Search of Knowledge (Princeton\, 2006)\, and Princeton Readings in Islamist Thought: Texts and Contexts from Al-Banna to Bin Laden (Princeton\, 2009)\, written and edited in collaboration with Muhammad Qasim Zaman. She has been published across a wide spectrum of scholarly journals\, including Perspectives on Politics\, Political Theory\, The Review of Politics\, The Journal of Politics\, International Studies Review\, and Political Psychology. \nThis event is presented by the Department of Politics and co-sponsored by the Center for Middle East and North Africa.

SUMMARY:Poetics of Non-Citizenship: A Seminar with Urayoán Noel
DESCRIPTION:In this seminar\, Urayoán Noel will discuss his critical work on the nexus of creative expression and political activism\, from the 1960s to the present. He is interested in the subversive power of media\, performance\, and especially of English-Spanish-Spanglish language play\, which cuts across different Latina/o/x constituencies. One dimension of his research involves the use of social media among activist DREAMers and in the Haitian-Dominican context\, expressed in the #Latinx hashtag and Dominican Twitter. Another thread considers “eccentric archives of the Latina/o Sixties” by comparing two poetic movements\, the Royal Chicano Air Force and El Puerto Rican Embassy. Although centered in California and New York respectively\, both groups of poet-performers imagined sites of organization outside the nation-state: “Califas” and “Nuyorico.” Finally\, Professor Noel considers the changing work of the space of the Nuyorican Poets Cafe from the 1970s to the present\, from anti-gentrification to anti-globalization movements. \nPastries\, coffee\, and tea will be served. \n  \nPlease register here prior to attending this event. \n  \nUrayoán Noel is a self-described “stateless poet” whose critical and creative work foregrounds the messy condition of Puerto Rican belonging and non-belonging in and to the U.S. nation-state. His poetic performances\, texts\, and “video poems” flagrantly comingle English with Spanish\, mixing learned literary allusions with found words generated from cell phones or political demonstrations. \nBorn and raised in San Juan\, Puerto Rico\, Professor Noel lives in the Bronx and is an associate professor of English and Spanish at New York University. He is the author of Buzzing Hemisphere/Rumor Hemisférico (Arizona\, 2015)\,  a Library Journal Top Fall Indie Poetry selection; Hi-Density Politics (BlazeVox\, 2010)\, a National Book Critics Circle Small Press Highlights selection; Kool Logic/La Lógica Kool (Bilingual Review\, 2005)\, an El Nuevo Día Book of the Year; the performance text EnUncIAdOr (Educación Emergente\, 2014); and several books mostly in Spanish. Other works include the DVD Kool Logic Sessions (Bilingual Review\, 2005)\, a collaboration with composer Monxo López; the artist’s book/performance/website The Edgemere Letters (2011)\, a collaboration with artist Martha Clippinger; and the critical study In Visible Movement: Nuyorican Poetry from the Sixties to Slam (Iowa\, 2014)\, winner of the LASA Latina/o Studies Book Award and recipient of an honorable mention in the MLA Prize in Latina/o and Chicana/o Literary and Cultural Studies. A contributing editor to the NACLA Report on the Americas and Obsidian: Literature & Arts in the African Diaspora\, he has received fellowships from the Ford Foundation\, the Howard Foundation\, the Bronx Council on the Arts\, and CantoMundo. He is currently completing a bilingual edition of the poems of Pablo de Rokha. \n  \nThe seminar is co-sponsored by the Literature Department\, Chicano Latino Research Center and Institute for Humanities Research\, with generous support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

SUMMARY:Film Screening of "Maestra" with Filmmaker Catherine Murphy
DESCRIPTION:Cuba\, 1961: 250\,000 volunteers taught 700\,000 people to read and write in one year. 100\,000 of the teachers were under 18 years old. Over half were women. Maestra explores this story through the personal testimonies of the young women who went out to teach literacy in rural communities across the island – and found themselves deeply transformed in the process. \nThere will be a Q & A with the filmmaker after the screening. \nCo-sponsored by The Chicano/Latino Research Center\, The Presidential Chair in Feminist Critical Race and Ethnic Studies\, and the Social Documentation Program. \nFor more information contact the Latin American and Latino Studies Department\, or Professor Lourdes Martínez-Echazábal at: lourdes@ucsc.edu
