SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:EEB Thursday Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:The Organization for Tropical Studies (OTS) – established almost 50 years ago – represents a consortium of almost 60 universities and colleges. The University of Michigan was one of the founding members of OTS\, taking a leadership role in developing research and educational opportunities in the tropics in the 1950s and 1960s. In this seminar\, Losos will also briefly discuss roles played by OTS and the University of Michigan in the development of discipline of tropical biology. Dr. Losos will then present data from multi-decadal ecological studies of trees\, lizards\, frogs\, and birds at OTS’ La Selva Biological Station\, Costa Rica.  Findings from these long-term studies reveal dramatic and surprising directional changes are underway in this well-studied\, old-growth neotropical forest.  The causes of such changes are still poorly understood\, but it is clear that they are multiple and interacting\, including land-use change\, climate change\, predator release\, and pesticide use.  She will then briefly compare findings from La Selva with those from three other Neotropical biological stations in Panama\, Brazil\, and Peru.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies Thursday Speakers Series
DESCRIPTION:Jay Cook\, University of Michigan\n\nLecture Abstract: Deep in the Ohio rust belt there is an old mansion called “Otira”–loaded with historical secrets. Few would suspect that this late Victorian showpiece was first commissioned by black musicians\, financed by global capital\, and conceived as a political statement. Nor would one imagine that the home’s original owner\, Frederick J. Loudin\, was among the world’s most famous men\, a figure who once sang for Queen Victoria\, dined with Kaiser Wilhelm\, performed at the Taj Mahal. Following his story backward\, this talk will explore the geopolitics of black celebrity\, 1770-1920. On the one hand\, it will seek to recover the Loudins’ world: global black celebrities many years before the Jazz Age. But it will also develop a broader historical argument about the significance of their circulation. What if the Loudins’ remarkable story were part of a much older black pattern\, one that began not with ragtime and records\, but at the very dawn of emancipation? What if there were dozens of lost Otiras scattered around the world?

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Film
DESCRIPTION:Agnieszka Holland\, director. In Polish with English subtitles. (92 min.\, 1981)\nA nuanced\, critical depiction of everyday life amid communist bureaucracy\, the film follows a woman struggling to raise her son with little support in a small town.

Banned in Poland\, this was the last film made by Holland in her homeland before seeking exile in France.
