SUMMARY:Dr. Siva Vaidhyanathan - The High Cost of Outsourcing Thought: On the Ideology of Artificial Intelligence
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, the TLC hosts a convocation to bring together educators across the campus and from the local community to explore significant topics in teaching and learning in higher education. Each year’s keynote address is free and open to the public. \nThis year’s Convocation speaker will be Dr. Siva Vaidhyanathan\, who will present his talk\, The High Cost of Outsourcing Thought: On the Ideology of Artificial Intelligence. \nHis talk will examine the ideas that have motivated the rush to deploy both generative artificial intelligence and predictive artificial intelligence into our computer systems and our lives. It will consider the effects on our collective intelligence and our habits of creativity and collaboration. What problem do we hope to solve with this suite of technologies? What do we gain? What do we lose? And how should those questions shape how educators and students interface with these technologies? \nAfterwards\, Dr. Vaidhyanathan will be joined in conversation by THI Faculty Director and Linguistics Professor Pranav Anand. \n \nDr. Siva Vaidhyanathan is the Robertson Professor of Media Studies and director of the Center for Media and Citizenship at the University of Virginia.

SUMMARY:International Women's Day: Celebrating Feminist Scholarship from the Americas
DESCRIPTION:The Research Center for the Americas and Feminist Collective of Sisters in the Borderlands invite you to join us as we celebrate International Women’s Day with book talks by two leading feminist scholars. The first speaker is Dr. Ranita Ray of the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas who will speak about her book The Making of a Teenage Service Class: Poverty and Mobility in an American City (University of California Press\, 2017). The second speaker is Dr. Barbara Sutton of the University of Albany\, SUNY who will speak about her book Surviving State Terror: Women’s Testimonies of Repression and Resistance in Argentina (New York University Press\, 2018). Together\, these books explore the critical themes of resistance\, survival\, intersectionality\, and trauma/hardships in the Americas. \nSchedule:\n1:30 p.m. – 3:00 p.m. ~ Dr. Ranita Ray\, University of Nevada\, Las Vegas\n3:00 p.m. – 3:20 p.m. ~ Break with light snacks\n3:20 p.m. – 4:50 p.m. ~ Dr. Barbara Sutton\, University at Albany\, SUNY \nAbout the Speakers: \nRanita Ray is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas. She is an ethnographer specializing in women of color feminisms\, children and youth\, urban inequalities\, and education and policing. Her book\, The Making of a Teenage Service Class: Poverty and Mobility in an American City (University of California Press\, 2018)\, challenges common wisdom that targeting “risk behaviors” among youth such as drugs\, gangs\, violence\, and teen parenthood is key to breaking the cycle of poverty. Ray has published several other articles and book chapters related to children/youth\, urban inequalities\, race\, class and gender\, and co-authored a book titled As The Leaves Turn Gold: Aging Experiences of Asian Americans (Rowman & Littlefield Publishers\, 2012). Ray is currently preparing a book manuscript that draws on rigorous fieldwork to explore how the relationship between policing\, race\, class\, and gender shapes schooling experiences and educational trajectories of children growing up in marginalized communities in Las Vegas. Ray is actively involved in community-oriented research projects\, and co-founder of Heating Youth Voices—a Connecticut based youth led organization. \nBarbara Sutton is an Associate Professor in the Department of Women’s\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies at the University at Albany (SUNY). She is also affiliated with the departments of Sociology and of Latin American\, Caribbean\, and U.S. Latino Studies at the same institution. She earned a law degree from the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina (her country of origin) as well as a doctorate in sociology from the University of Oregon. Professor Sutton’s scholarly interests include body politics\, global gender issues\, state violence and human rights\, collective memory\, and women’s movements\, particularly in Latin American contexts. Her book\, Bodies in Crisis: Culture\, Violence\, and Women’s Resistance in Neoliberal Argentina (Rutgers University Press\, 2010) received the 2011 Gloria E. Anzaldúa Book Prize by the National Women’s Studies Association. Her new book\, Surviving State Terror: Women’s Testimonies of Repression and Resistance in Argentina\, was published by NYU Press in the Spring of 2018.

SUMMARY:The Jungle and the Beast: A Conversation with Lewis Watts and Óscar Martínez
DESCRIPTION:The Jungle and the Beast: A Conversation with Lewis Watts and Óscar Martínez is the second event in the Borders and Belonging Series hosted by the CLRC. In The Beast (Los migrantes que no importan\, in the original Spanish)\, intrepid Salvadoran journalist Óscar Martínez accompanies migrants on “the Beast\,” the train that travels from Central America through Mexico to the United States. Meanwhile\, UCSC Professor Emeritus Lewis Watts has captured some of the stasis of migration in his recent photos of “the Jungle\,” the makeshift migrant camp in Calais\, France. Mr. Martínez discusses the migrant trail and Professor Watts shares some of his recent photos from Calais.\nClick here for more info and to register for the event. \nThe title of Martinez’s celebrated book comes from la Bestia\, the old and decrepit train thousands of migrants cling to every day in the hopes of crossing from Central America heading north. Intimately familiar with this scene from his days of on-the-ground reporting in El Salvador\, Martinez compiled his short briefs into one searing look at the crisis of those who many call the “invisible people.” Martinez also is a staff writer for El Faro out of San Salvador and runs “Sala Negra\,” a project with fellow journalists\, investigating the challenging questions addressing and concerning gang violence in Central America. Launched in 2011\, la Sala Negra cover Nicaragua\, Honduras\, El Salvador and Guatemala; four of the most volatile regions in the world today. The consortium works on issues mostly related to organized crime\, prison systems and the culture of violence in the region. Martinez is widely considered a leading voice on these topics and migration related concerns throughout Latin America \nLewis Watts’ photos of “La jungle\,” the makeshift migrant camp in Calais\, France\, describe an intimate and profound look at one of the most dangerous and heavily-trafficked migrant crossings in the world. As the Syrian refugee crisis continues to unfold in the news\, Professor Watts’ imagery shows the universal face of the immigrant and forced migration struggle. The conversation will also be joined by Jennifer González\, Professor of History of Art and Visual Culture\, who will moderate the morning’s conversation about migrants and migration in different regions of the world. \nÓscar Martínez is the author of Los migrantes que no importan: En el camino con los centroamericanos indocumentados en México (Icaria/El Faro\, 2010)\, which was translated by Daniela Maria Ugaz and John Washington as The Beast: Riding the Rails and Dodging Narcos on the Migrant Trail (Verso\, 2013). The New York Times has described Mr. Martínez’s writing as “graceful” and “incisive.” His second book\, A History of Violence\, is forthcoming from Verso in 2016. Based in El Salvador\, he writes for Elfaro.net\, Latin America’s first online newspaper. \nLewis Watts joined the Art Department at UC Santa Cruz in 2001 after having taught at UC Berkeley for 23 years. He is a photographer of cultural and urban landscapes\, with a focus on the African diaposora. He has photographed African and Afro-descent communities in the United States\, Latin America\, and Europe and is the co-author (with Elizabeth Pepin) ofHarlem of the West: The San Francisco Jazz Fillmore Era (Chronicle Books\, 2005) and (with Eric Porter) New Orleans Suite: Music and Culture in Transition (University of California\, 2013). \nFor questions\, please contact Catherine Ramírez at cathysue@ucsc.edu.
