SUMMARY:Native Speaker Series with Patty Krawec
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join the American Indian Resource Center‘s Native Speaker Series with Patty Krawec (Anishinaabe/Ukrainian)\, on April 11th\, 2024\, to be held at the Namaste Lounge located at College 9 and JRL at 5:00 PM-7:00 PM. \nGuest author\, Patty Krawec will share with us her most recent book titled: Becoming Kin: An Indigenous Call to Unforgetting the Past and Reimagining Our Future. Her discussion will focus on building intentional movement and embodying radical rest\, shedding self-care as a survival strategy\, and thinking more collectively about community care. For those new to Patty Krawec\, and to those that joined the AIRC Book Circle in the winter\, then come join us in conversation. This event is open to all UCSC affiliates and guests! \n \n\nBook Description \n“Weaving her own story with the story of her ancestors and with the broader themes of creation\, replacement\, and disappearance\, Krawec helps readers see settler colonialism through the eyes of an Indigenous writer. Settler colonialism tried to force us into one particular way of living\, but the old ways of kinship can help us imagine a different future. Krawec asks\, What would it look like to remember that we are all related? How might we become better relatives to the land\, to one another\, and to Indigenous movements for solidarity? Braiding together historical\, scientific\, and cultural analysis\, Indigenous ways of knowing\, and the vivid threads of communal memory\, Krawec crafts a stunning\, forceful call to “unforget” our history.” \n  \nThis event is hosted in collaboration with UCSC’s: The Center for Reimsgining Leadership (CRL)\, OpenLab and the Vera Rubin Presidential Chair\, Center for Coastal Climate Resilience (CCCR)\, Anthropology\, Community Studoies and History Departments\, College Nine and John R. Lewis College Co Curricular Programs Office (CoCo)\, The Humanities Institute (THI)\, Student Diversity and Inclusion program (ODEI/SDIP)\, Sustainability Office (SEJA/SO)\, People of Color Sustainability Collective (PoCSC)\, and the American Indian Resource Center (AIRC).

Montaño’s book\, Electrifying Mexico: Technology and the Transformation of a Modern City (2023) explores the role of electricity in Mexico’s economic and political evolution\, especially investigating how inventions and adaptations served local needs while fostering new ideas of time and space\, body and self\, the national and the foreign. \nThis event is sponsored by the UCSC Peggy and Jack Baskin Endowed Chair in Feminist Studies\, the Feminist Studies Department\, the Critical Race and Ethnic Studies Department\, UC Santa Cruz\, Universidad Nacional Autonoma of Mexico Instituto de Investigaciones Historicas\, and The University of Texas at Austin Department of American Studies. \n

SUMMARY:Food for Thought: Marcia Ochoa on Colonialism impact on current views of gender and sexuality
DESCRIPTION:Cannibalism\, Sodomy\, and the Failings of Modernity\nMarcia Ochoa\, Feminist Studies Department\nProfessor Marcia Ochao’s research areas include transgender studies\, gender and sexuality\, colonial historiography\, and many more. In this talk she will show how European colonizers focused on non-Western practices of spirituality (which they called idolatry)\, relation to the body\, (cannibalism)\, and gender systems (sodomy) as key forms of difference that legitimized their project of colonizing the Americas. Professor Ochoa will discuss how colonization and specific historic events have shaped gender and sexuality ever since\, and continue to reproduce violence in the lives of gender-variant people. What will it take to create a society that does not reproduce this kind of violence? \nFood for Thought is an opportunity for students to connect with faculty in an informal and interactive setting. Join us each quarter for a presentation from a renowned UCSC faculty member. Hear about the speaker’s research and professional experience\, learn more about an aspect of their work\, and enjoy an opportunity to interact and ask questions. And\, get to know another side of the faculty speaker through food – light refreshments provided will represent some favorite food or cuisine of our invited guest and/or reflect the evening’s topic. \nFor more information or accessibility needs\, please contact coco@ucsc.edu.

SUMMARY:Celebrating Gloria Anzaldúa's Legacy: 10th Anniversary of Passing
DESCRIPTION:This year marks the 10th anniversary of Gloria Anzaldúa’s passing. In honor of the legacy left by Gloria Anzaldúa\, The Chicano Latino Resource Center will be hosting a celebration of her life through a formal program with speakers\, an art exhibit from local artists\, an altar\, refreshments\, and an open mic. \nGloria Anzaldúa was a Chicana-tejana-lesbiana-feminist poet\, theorist\, and fiction writer from South Texas. In addition to authoring Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza\, she was the editor of the critical anthology Making Face/Making Soul: Haciendo Caras and co-editor of This Bridge Called My Back: Writings by Radical Women of Color\, winner of the Before Columbus Foundation American Book Award. \nShe passed away in 2004 and was honored around the world for shedding visionary light on the Chicana experience by receiving the National Association For Chicano Studies Award in 2005. Gloria was also posthumously awarded her doctoral degree in literature from the University of California Santa Cruz. A number of scholarships and book awards are awarded in her name every year. \nEl Centro is committed to continuing her vision of the New Mestiza Consciousness. The borderlands of higher education are real and thus making a program to remember and celebrate all of the gifts she left us is necessary and important. \nWe look forward to having you and celebrating together the legacy of Gloria Anzaldúa. \nFacebook Event Page: www.facebook.com/events/700386210007910/
