Ben Yomen used cartoons to fight bosses he felt had no respect for their laborers and to ridicule an American Congress he felt had no respect for its constituents. Many of his cartoons that were published in the 1940s have such a timeless message that they could have been published in 2011.\n\nIn a 1943 Federated Press survey\, Yoman was voted \"most popular cartoonist in the labor press today\" by AFL (American Federation of Labor)\, CIO (Congress of Industrial Organizations) and Railroad Brotherhood editors. His cartoons documented the labor struggles of the day.\n\nThis collection of Ben Yoman cartoons is part of the Joseph A. Labadie Collection in the U-M Special Collections Library. The Labadie Collection is the oldest research collection of radical history in the United States\, documenting a wide variety of international social protest movements of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. It is named for anarchist and labor organizer Joseph Antoine Labadie (1850-1933).

But one fighter\, Faye Schulman\, had a camera. Schulman’s rare collection of images captures the camaraderie\, horror and loss\, bravery and triumph of the rag-tag\, tough partisans–some Jewish\, some not–who fought the Germans and their collaborators.\n\nSchulman\, the only known Jewish partisan photographer\, says of the exhibit\, “I want people to know that there was resistance. Jews did not go like sheep to the slaughter. I was a photographer. I have pictures. I have proof.”\n\nCo-sponsored by the University of Michigan Library and the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies.\n\nThis exhibit was produced by the Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation and curated by Jill Vexler\, Ph.D. It was made possible by Thomas and Johanna Baruch\, the Epstein/Roth Foundation\, the Purjes Foundation\, the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation\, the Koret Foudnation\, the Taube Foundation for Jewish Life and culture\, the Holocaust Council of UJA MetroWest\, and Diane and Howard Wohl.

Faulkner’s writing is famous for its poetic density and beauty\, but his process and the editorial history of his work present layers of interpretive complication and depth that remain under-examined by scholars. This exhibit highlights some of the fascinating and meaningful discrepancies evident from Faulkner’s manuscripts to his publisher’s galleys and between various print editions of his most famous novels.\n\nItems are from the Irwin T. and Shirley Holtzman Collection of William Faulkner\, which is a comprehensive collection of published Faulkner materials. Many first editions of books and short stories will be on display as well as original University of Mississippi yearbook illustrations\, and reproductions of manuscripts. The exhibit focuses on the complex editorial history of Faulkner's work\, including his approach to revision (including alterations he made to his stories and characters between different forms of publication and different editions). Materials range in date from 1917-1969.\n\nView the exhibit during Special Collections Library hours: Mon-Fri.\, 10am-5pm.

Example 1. Molecular biogeographic approaches have revealed several pervasive Neogene / Quaternary zones of transition between sister lineages within the North American deserts\, but important questions remain unanswered about the nature of these zones\, e.g\, geological\, paleoclimatic\, and ecological contexts\; and temporal complexity. Example 2. Species have responded to Quaternary climatic changes in a variety of ways\, and combining genetics with niche modeling has become a popular approach to reconstructing the response. Two emerging issues are considered: first\, to what extent\, and why from a biotic/ecological trait perspective\, do co-distributed species respond in a concerted fashion\; and second\, what shall we infer when the phylogeographic or landscape genetic and paleo-niche models do not agree?\n UID:6801-1134648@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/6801 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:evolutionary biology,ecology LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1210 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20110830T163802 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20110922T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20110922T200000 SUMMARY:Fair / Festival:Hot Air Balloon Festival DESCRIPTION:Go Up on North: Tethered Hot Air Balloon Rides!
