SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in its Time and Ours
DESCRIPTION:“A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in its Time and Ours” brings together world-renowned activists and scholars to mark the 50th anniversary of The Port Huron Statement \, the historic manifesto of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) first issued in June 1962. Tapping the viewpoints of those present at the creation of the Statement as well as those historians\, humanists\, and social scientists who have studied that period\, “A New Insurgency” draws attention to the complex scene of social-justice and leftwing activist movements that laid the seed-bed for The Port Huron Statement –and then helped spread and amplify its visions of social change.\n\nThe legacy of those movements\, and the ideals of The Port Huron Statement\, have returned to center-stage amid the stunning sweep of mass protest in pursuit of democracy and social justice over the past two years\, from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street and continuing collective action against the hardships of austerity. This gathering at the University of Michigan will test the significance of the new insurgency of the early 1960s for the new insurgents of 2011-2012. We welcome a broad audience to the conversation.\n\nSDS’s Port Huron Statement offered the most comprehensive analysis of American society and most eloquent vision for radical reform to be generated by the emerging movement known as the New Left. Young radical intellectuals–including\, in crucial leadership roles\, undergraduate and graduate students from the University of Michigan–produced the document\, but their inspiration stemmed from the energy and moral example already set by activists in the civil rights and peace movements\, anticolonial struggles abroad\, new signs of dissent from Latin America to Eastern Europe\, and older leftwing ideas in need of renovation.\n\nDrafters of The Port Huron Statement were keenly aware of many of these forces\; in 1962\, they may not have recognized others that were stirring as well. Speakers at the conference will examine the open\, and sometimes hidden\, elements of the new insurgent spirit of that time–including trends in feminism\, Black nationalism\, Latina/o and Native American struggles for recognition and power\, rebellious currents around the world\, gay liberation\, and developments in the arts that tracked the course of rising protest.\n\n“A New Insurgency” will engage today’s generation of students and activists in all the conference proceedings. Following this year’s summer-reading programs focused on The Port Huron Statement (for incoming UM first-years in several special college programs)\, the conference will feature an all-student panel on the meaning of the Statement’s New Left principles today. A concluding panel on Friday\, November 2\, will feature representatives of current campus activist groups discussing the present and future course of movements for equality\, social justice\, and democracy. Lunch-time sessions on Thursday and Friday will provide “open mic” discussion by veterans of the “Port Huron” moment and newcomers to the history of that time.\n\n“A New Insurgency” runs from Wednesday\, October 31\, 7:30 pm\, through the evening of Friday\, November 2. Daily panels are held in the Pendleton and Anderson Rooms of the Michigan Union on S. State St. Wednesday's Keynote Address (Ruth Rosen) will be held in Angell Hall Auditorium B\, 7:30-9:00pm. Thursday's Keynote Address (Tom Hayden) will be held in East Hall 1324\, 7:30-9:00pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:African Art and the Shape of Time
DESCRIPTION:African Art and the Shape of Time explores how African art gives material form to diverse concepts of temporality\, history and memory. African art is often interpreted in Western analytical frameworks as expressions of timeless myths and rituals\, interrupted only by the colonial encounter. African Art and the Shape of Time complicates such conventional views by considering diverse modes for reckoning time and its philosophical\, social\, and religious significance. The exhibition includes 30 works from the University of Michigan Museum of Art\, National Museum of African Art\, Fowler Museum at UCLA\, as well as several Detroit area private collections\, and is organized around five themes that explore the multiplicity of time in Africa: The Beginning of Things\, Embodied Time\, Moving Through Time\, Global Time\, and \"NOW.\"\n\nThis exhibition is generously supported by the University of Michigan Health System. Additional support provided by the CEW Frances and Sydney Lewis Visiting Leaders Fund.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire 
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin West's iconic painting The Death of General Wolfe (1776) depicts the death of James Wolfe\, the British commander at the 1759 Battle of Quebec during what in this country is known as the French and Indian War. In conflating a momentous contemporary event with the genre of large-scale history painting\, West flouted the conventions of academic painting and the work became one of the most celebrated paintings in Britain. The artist went on to produce six versions of the painting\, one of which belongs to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Through approximately 40 works from Michigan\, Canadian\, and British collections\, this ambitious and thematically focused exhibition will include the Clements canvas as well as other depictions of James Wolfe and his death on the battlefield.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Joseph F. McCrindle Foundation\, the University of Michigan Health System\, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost and Office of the Vice President for Research\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, and THE MOSAIC FOUNDATION (of R. & P. Heydon).\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Discovering Eighteenth-Century British America through the William L. Clements Library Collection
DESCRIPTION:This significant exhibition provides glimpses of British America in the 1700s and is designed to complement the Museum's concurrent exhibition \"Benjamin West: General Wolfe and the Art of Empire\,\" which features the Clements collection's major painting \"The Death of General Wolfe.\" William L. Clements assembled an outstanding array of primary sources on North America dating between 1492 and 1800\, with a heavy emphasis on early European exploration and discovery and the eighteenth-century wars for control of the continent. The exhibition features a mix of rare items from Mr. Clements’s original donation and pieces the Library has acquired since 1923 to complement and enhance its strength in eighteenth-century American history.\n\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.\n

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Jesper Just: \"This Nameless Spectacle\"
DESCRIPTION:Visitors encountering Danish artist Just’s exhibit will find themselves captivated in stages\, as the experience of viewing it unfolds over time. In this breathtaking installation\, as in much of his work\, Just situates the viewer in his signature landscape of beauty\, provocation\, and a general uneasiness that is as seductive as it is ominous. The storyline is at once deceptively simple and perplexing: a wheelchair-bound protagonist travels through a neighborhood in the outskirts of Paris to her apartment\, while a young male character appears to follow her. Once home\, she is able to leave her wheelchair but is overcome by a powerful seizure. One of Just’s unique strengths is his ability to engage the viewer in an open-ended\, unresolved narrative in a manner that is more intriguing than frustrating. It is impossible to parse but equally impossible to abandon\, and this is the essence of Just’s gift for hypnotic storytelling.\nGenerous support for this exhibition is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost. \n

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Noon Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:(FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC) Today\, the unquestioned status of Hokkaido as “one of Japan’s four main islands” attests to the power of prevailing narratives to mask the fact and nature of Hokkaido’s colonial past and the devastating consequences for the indigenous Ainu. Revered manga artist Tezuka Osamu attempted to disrupt the typical “development” mythologies when crafting his three-volume work Shumari (1973)\, at once a riveting adventure\, intriguing mystery\, sentimental romance\, and sweeping historical drama set in the northern “frontier.” Yet\, a tension suffuses Shumari\, with its eponymous ethnic cross-dressing Japanese protagonist\, as it both subverts and reinforces timeworn images of Ainu.\n\nAbout the Speaker:\nMichele M. Mason is an Assistant Professor of Japanese Cultural Studies at the University of Maryland. Her research and teaching interests include modern Japanese literature and history\, colonial and postcolonial studies\, feminist theory\, and masculinity studies. She is the co-editor of \"Reading Colonial Japan: Text\, Context\, and Critique\" and author of \"Dominant Narratives of Colonial Hokkaido and Imperial Japan: Envisioning the Periphery and Nation-State\" (forthcoming). She also co-produced the short\, award-winning documentary film\, \"Witness to Hiroshima.\"

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Conversations on Europe. “The Colonial Mediterranean and its Place in European History” 
DESCRIPTION:Decades after the publication of Braudel’s masterpiece that defined our understanding of history and the Mediterranean\, the history of the Middle Sea enjoys a venerable popularity. Recent and current political turmoil in Mediterranean countries and the question of whether European states should intervene (or not) evokes the historical trajectory of European colonialism in the Mediterranean. This talk argues that with few recent exceptions the historiography of the modern Mediterranean suffers from a fragmentation into national and regional studies of colonial history of North Africa and the Middle East. The talk also argues for a more ”˜interventionist’ approach that refashions Mediterranean history as part of the history of colonialism and includes different geohistories that go beyond the current methodological nationalism\; by bringing Southern Europe into the debate on the Colonial Mediterranean\, a new understanding of European history and its colonial dimension is possible and indeed necessary. Such an approach relates to current debates about the neo-colonialism of real economic dependence and the neo-orientalism of assumed political immaturity.    \n\nSakis Gekas is an Assistant Professor teaching Modern Greek and Mediterranean History at York University\, Toronto. He has taught Economic History at the LSE and the University of Manchester and was a Max Weber Fellow at the European University Institute. He has published on the economic and social history of Mediterranean ports and he is completing a history of the Ionian State and British colonialism in the Mediterranean.\n\nSponsors: CES\, Modern Greek Program.\n\n

SUMMARY:Conference / Symposium:A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in Its Time and Ours
DESCRIPTION:Tom Hayden\, former California state senator\, is a long-time proponent of radical activism in the United States. An early member of SDS in Ann Arbor\, he led the SDS community-organizing project in Newark\, N.J.\, and became a prominent leader of the movement against the Vietnam War.  He was the principal drafter of The Port Huron Statement. Tom Hayden drafted and finalized The Port Huron Statement in June 1962. He is editor of Participatory Democracy (Paradigm\, 2012)\, and author of The Long Sixties\, The Lost Gospel of the Earth\, Street Wars\, and The Zapatista Reader\, among others. He served in the California Legislature (1982-2000)\, where he chaired committees on labor\, environment and higher education. His writings are at tomhayden.com.\n\n***\n\n“A New Insurgency: The Port Huron Statement in its Time and Ours” brings together world-renowned activists and scholars to mark the 50th anniversary of The Port Huron Statement \, the historic manifesto of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) first issued in June 1962. Tapping the viewpoints of those present at the creation of the Statement as well as those historians\, humanists\, and social scientists who have studied that period\, “A New Insurgency” draws attention to the complex scene of social-justice and leftwing activist movements that laid the seed-bed for The Port Huron Statement –and then helped spread and amplify its visions of social change.\n\nThe legacy of those movements\, and the ideals of The Port Huron Statement\, have returned to center-stage amid the stunning sweep of mass protest in pursuit of democracy and social justice over the past two years\, from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street and continuing collective action against the hardships of austerity. This gathering at the University of Michigan will test the significance of the new insurgency of the early 1960s for the new insurgents of 2011-2012. We welcome a broad audience to the conversation.\n\nSDS’s Port Huron Statement offered the most comprehensive analysis of American society and most eloquent vision for radical reform to be generated by the emerging movement known as the New Left. Young radical intellectuals–including\, in crucial leadership roles\, undergraduate and graduate students from the University of Michigan–produced the document\, but their inspiration stemmed from the energy and moral example already set by activists in the civil rights and peace movements\, anticolonial struggles abroad\, new signs of dissent from Latin America to Eastern Europe\, and older leftwing ideas in need of renovation.\n\nDrafters of The Port Huron Statement were keenly aware of many of these forces\; in 1962\, they may not have recognized others that were stirring as well. Speakers at the conference will examine the open\, and sometimes hidden\, elements of the new insurgent spirit of that time–including trends in feminism\, Black nationalism\, Latina/o and Native American struggles for recognition and power\, rebellious currents around the world\, gay liberation\, and developments in the arts that tracked the course of rising protest.\n\n“A New Insurgency” will engage today’s generation of students and activists in all the conference proceedings. Following this year’s summer-reading programs focused on The Port Huron Statement (for incoming UM first-years in several special college programs)\, the conference will feature an all-student panel on the meaning of the Statement’s New Left principles today. A concluding panel on Friday\, November 2\, will feature representatives of current campus activist groups discussing the present and future course of movements for equality\, social justice\, and democracy. Lunch-time sessions on Thursday and Friday will provide “open mic” discussion by veterans of the “Port Huron” moment and newcomers to the history of that time.\n\n“A New Insurgency” runs from Wednesday\, October 31\, 7:30 pm\, through the evening of Friday\, November 2. Daily panels are held in the Pendleton and Anderson Rooms of the Michigan Union on S. State St. Wednesday's Keynote Address (Ruth Rosen) will be held in Angell Hall Auditorium B\, 7:30-9:00pm. Thursday's Keynote Address (Tom Hayden) will be held in East Hall 1324\, 7:30-9:00pm.\n\n

SUMMARY:Performance:Milk Carton Kids
DESCRIPTION:\"The Milk Carton Kids transport with heartbreaking understatement\"–Huffington Post\n\nThe Milk Carton Kids\, a harmonizing\, minimalist duo\, use two guitars and two voices to create a new combination of back-porch Americana and classic folk. Relying on compelling narrative\, natural stage chemistry\, and a seamless interplay between their 1950s acoustics and well-constructed harmony lines which play more like counterpoint melodies. The Milk Carton Kids have drawn in and excited sold-out crowds across North America since their formation in early 2011. The serendipitous meeting between the two (Kenneth Pattengale & Joey Ryan) led quickly to a shelving of the solo careers each had been pursuing. While neither had been compelled to such collaboration with peers before\, an effortless musical complementarity\, fast personal fondness\, and a like-minded view toward how to present the collaboration to their fans influenced the duo’s formation and\, almost immediately\, began drawing praise from varied sources. While the press has indeed been kind to this duo\, their spirit of independence compelled them to release their first two albums on their own label directly to their fans for free. You might have heard them on a recent NPR Tiny Desk Concert–now experience this rising young pair in person. Leslie Stevens and The Badgers from L.A. open!
