By studying the largest-to-date ensembles of geometries for string compactifications\, we find several striking generic features: large hidden gauge sectors\, regions of strong coupling\, and large numbers of light axions. Understanding these ensembles\, and the landscape as whole\, requires a new set of tools\, both formal and computational\, including new mathematics and tools from data science\, the development of which I will discuss.

For each one\, an accompanying explanation describes its significance. The subjects of the images are cells\, tissues and organs\, from a wide variety of biological sources (plants\, worms\, fruit flies\, fish\, mice and yes\, even human brain). The colors are added by investigators\, to allow them to see the otherwise transparent tissues. By looking at these microscopic images\, you will learn about research into normal embryonic development as well as cutting-edge investigations into diseases such as basal cell carcinoma\, bipolar disease\, epilepsy and cancer.

A sign for gender inclusive bathrooms in a Jewish Community Center. A Christmas tree adorned with rainbow-colored ornaments and a Star of David topper. These are three of the 21 photos-with-narratives that constitute “Hineinu – Here We Are: An LGBTQ+ Jewish Photovoice Exhibit.” Combined with rich\, thought-provoking text\, these photos give insight into the varied experiences of local community members who are both Jewish and queer.\n\n“Photovoice” is the process of putting cameras in the hands of traditionally “voiceless” or marginalized community members to allow them to record\, reflect on\, and share their community’s strengths and concerns. Photovoice participants have the opportunity to capture their current experiences through pictures\, with the goal of sparking dialogue and action related to the themes depicted in the photos.\n\nAs you view this Photovoice exhibit\, we hope that you will consider what it means to be inclusive and welcoming\, and that you will continue to develop an awareness of the diversity of other people’s experiences both within and outside of the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities.

Blending images from the real world and her imagination\, Organic Fiction celebrates nature in all its beauty\, chaos and complexity. Hava Gurevich received a BFA in photography from U-M and an MFA in painting from Illinois State University. Her creative process begins with photographs and sketches of details in nature\, such as tree branches\, ice patterns\, twisted vines\, and delicate spring blossoms. These drawings contribute to her personal vocabulary of shapes and gestures\, and she often digitally combines them with older paintings to become starting points of new works.

Over two thousand years later\, we are still political animals\, and the study of ancient cities is of abiding interest\, for our perceptions of the urban centers of the past continue to exert a powerful hold on modern culture. \n\nThis exhibition showcases three Classical cities where the University of Michigan sponsors field projects: Gabii in Italy\, Olynthos in Greece\, and Notion in Turkey. The archaeologists excavating these cities\, in collaboration with students and faculty from U-M’s Taubman College of Architecture and Urban Planning\, are comparing their findings to projects of urban rebuilding in contemporary Detroit\, asking two main questions: How do contemporary archaeological methods facilitate the study of both ancient and modern cities? And how can the study of the past help illuminate the challenges and opportunities facing Detroit today? \n\nLead Curator: Christopher Ratté\nCo-Curators: Lisa Nevett\, Nicola Terrenato\, and Kathy Velikov\n\nVisit the exhibition website: http://exhibitions.kelsey.lsa.umich.edu/urban-biographies UID:52176-12520831@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/52176 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Archaeology,Architecture,Classical Studies,Detroit,Environment,Exhibition,Museum LOCATION:Kelsey Museum of Archaeology CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180926T095233 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T120000 SUMMARY:Presentation:Telling the story of diversity at ITS DESCRIPTION:Multiple locations available.

In the early 1970s\, that question was hotly debated as artists\, critics\, and the public grappled with the relationship between art\, politics\, race\, and feminism. Many of those debates centered on bringing to light the roles that gender and race played in how “great modern art” was defined and assessed\, and on employing art to advance civil rights. Within this discourse\, abstraction had an especially fraught role. To many\, the decision by women artists and artists of color to make abstract art seemed to represent a retreat from politics and protest: an abnegation of a commitment to civil rights and feminism. \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" presents large-scale work by four leading American artists—Helen Frankenthaler\, Sam Gilliam\, Al Loving\, and Louise Nevelson—who chose abstraction as a means of expression within the intense political climate of the early 1970s.\n\nLead support for \"Abstraction\, Color\, and Politics in the Early 1970s\" is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the Richard and Rosann Noel Endowment Fund\, the Herbert W. and Susan L.

'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' reflects on this moment by considering how Africa and its artists have been at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange for centuries. Bringing together a dazzling array of works made in Africa\, Europe\, and the United States from the nineteenth to twenty-first century\, the exhibition demonstrates the international scope and reach of art from Africa and the African diaspora. It also explores issues such as slavery\, colonization\, migration\, racism\, and identity at play in the objects and their histories. Highlights include paintings\, photographs\, sculpture\, and installations by Kudzanai Chiurai\, Omar Victor Diop\, Wangechi Mutu\, and Serge Alain Nitegeka. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully-illustrated publication\, the tenth in the UMMA Books series.\n\nLead support for 'Beyond Borders: Global Africa' is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, Michigan Medicine\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and the University of Michigan Office of Research\, African Studies Center\, and Department of Afroamerican and African Studies.

Dialogues on Memory and Desire DESCRIPTION:Have We Met: Dialogues on Memory and Desire draws inspiration from Ann Arbor’s legacy of social movements (Anti-War Movement\, Civil Rights Movements) and experimental art practices (The Once Group) from the late-1950s to the 1970s as its point of departure. It brings together archival materials and reproductions from the University of Michigan’s Labadie Collection and the Bentley Library in conjunction with radical artworks by diverse\, multi-generational artists and designers whose works are deeply influenced by the ideas of freedom and self-determination\; re-writing the canonical accounts of history\; and building contemporary culture and solidarity through collective action.\n\nAt a time when the idea of citizenship in the United States is being deeply challenged and redefined through horrific occurrences of gun violence and police brutality towards racialized and queer civilians and refugees\, this exhibition asks what role art institutions can play in building inclusive and vibrant creative spaces the 21st Century. Have We Met? Dialogues on Memory and Desire retraces and learns from models of collectivity and organizing mobilized by artists\, designers\, and cultural producers in the past and present as a lens to understand the contemporary moment and re-imagine the future.  It explores the complex relationships and at times overlapping and contested concerns between contemporary art\, design\, and social justice that continually influence and inform one another.\n\nArtists: Rudolf Baranik\, Stephanie Dinkins\, Emory Douglas\, Brendan Fernandes\, Chitra Ganesh\, Carole Harris\, Maren Hassinger\, Al Loving\, Josh MacPhee\, Native Art Department International\, Michele Oka Doner\, Yoko Ono\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, Martha Rosler\, Buster Simpson\, Gregory Sholette\, Leni Sinclair\, Stephanie Syjuco\, Graem Whyte\, and Zafos Xagoraris. \n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra.

Invisible Europe DESCRIPTION:Essayist and fiction writer Dubravka Ugrešić will take a light tone while talking about the \"invisible people\" of Europe: the migrations that nobody takes into account when talking about the contemporary “migration crisis” and the people with proper papers migrating within the European Union. In another words\, Ugrešić will try to explain what Bulgarians\, for instance\, are doing in the Netherlands and what the Dutch are doing in Bulgaria. \n\nDubravka Ugrešić is one of Europe’s most distinctive novelists and essayists. From her early postmodernist excursions\, to her elegiac reckonings in fiction and essay with the disintegration of her Yugoslav homeland and the fall of the Berlin Wall\, to her more recent writings on popular and literary culture\, Ugrešić’s work is marked by a combination of irony\, polemic\, and compassion. Following degrees in Comparative and Russian Literature\, Ugrešić worked for many years at the University of Zagreb’s Institute for Theory of Literature. When war broke out in Yugoslavia in 1991\, Ugrešić took a firm anti-war stance\, critically dissecting retrograde Croatian and Serbian nationalism. Subjected to prolonged media harassment\, she left Croatia in 1993. Her books have been translated into over twenty languages. She is the winner of several major literary prizes\, including the Austrian State Prize for European Literature 1998\; the Jean Améry Essay Prize for her essayistic work as a whole\, 2012\; and the Vilenica Prize and Neustadt International Prize for Literature\, 2016. \n \nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to crees@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

This means that the urban-rural divide has required greater attention. In the midst of political\, economic\, and legal modernization\, how can the deep philosophical outlook\, moral and cultural system\, and artistic spirit of China’s long-lasting rural cultural model continue to draw its worldviews and values from tradition? This is a problem not only for those who work in the realm of ideas but also has become a keen focus of attention for dance artists around the globe to explore through new dance creation. This talk will explore the work of several young contemporary dance choreographers based in Beijing who are currently attracting significant attention in China. Specifically\, it will investigate the different ways these young choreographers are engaging with tradition in their work.\n\nMao Cui is Associate Professor of Dance Studies in the Humanities Institute at the Beijing Dance Academy. She holds a PhD in Dance Studies and is a member of the China Dancers Association\, and she has been the recipient of several prestigious national and Beijing-level awards for her research and teaching. In 2016\, she received China’s most competitive national-level social science research grant for her project titled “Twentieth-century American Modern Dance’s Borrowings from Eastern Culture and Their Relationship to its Transformations.” UID:54437-13583313@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/54437 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Chinese Studies,International,Lecture LOCATION:Michigan League - Henderson Room CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180927T153546 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T150000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Law Day DESCRIPTION:Meet with admission representatives from over 100 law schools.

Despite this progress\, there is more to be done\, and we find ourselves facing a growing sense of absolutism in the scholarly communications and open communities. This is seen in rhetoric on list-servs\, social media\, and in the disciplinary literature that would have us believe there is only one correct way to successfully provide scholarly communications services\, programs\, and advocacy.\n\nThis precarious assumption ignores important diversity in models\, types of institutions\, and local needs. Moreover\, it can result in a barrier to entry for those not already deeply embedded in the OA movement\, particularly when dialogue turns to blaming\, arguing\, and\, at times\, name-calling. What’s next for the open access movement? Where do we go from here? This talk will challenge some of the assumptions in the OA community\, while looking back on lessons learned\, focusing on meeting researcher needs and developing mission-driven initiatives in order to meaningfully integrate open access and OER into positions across the library. Using examples of successful and unsuccessful initiatives\, we’ll discuss shifting the conversation to a more adaptable\, user-focused approach that authentically meets the needs of our community.\n\nAbout the Speaker: \nSarah Beaubien has an MLS from Indiana University and has worked in academic libraries for 18 years. She is the Associate Dean of Curriculum\, Research\, and User Services at the Grand Valley State University Libraries. Prior to that\, she held positions as Head of Collections & Scholarly Communications\, Scholarly Communications Outreach Coordinator\, Liaison Librarian\, and Instruction Librarian. In addition to open access and OER\, her professional interests include strength-based leadership\, change management\, and user-centered approaches to library services and spaces. Through the evolution of her career path\, she’s come to believe that open access is everyone’s responsibility\, and that it can become part of our work in meaningful\, sustainable ways.

This talk will cover two topics: (1) the use of advanced surfaces to reduce plasma-material interactions and (2) the plasma functionalization of metamaterials and photonic crystals. \nThe Plasma Interactions (Pi) facility at UCLA enables testing of plasma-facing surfaces over a wide range of densities\, energies\, and fluence while providing in-situ observation with a wide range of intrusive and non-intrusive diagnostics. Using this facility and computational models\, we have developed and characterized new surfaces that reduce ion induced sputtering and ion-induced secondary electron emission (iSEE) by over 50%. Certain geometries improve trapping of sputterants and electrons for high-energy plasma applications. Similar surfaces provide significant reductions to electron-induced secondary electron emission (eSEE)\, resulting in materials that are plasma-resilient and minimally invasive. The talk will also cover recent discoveries on plasma-functionalized metamaterials and photonic crystals. We have uncovered coupling modes between “spoof” surface plasmons (SSPs) and plasma-based surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) that could lead to a new class of devices for EM-manipulating metasurfaces including rapidly tuneable filters\, switches\, multiplexers\, and beam steering.\n\nAbout the Speaker: Richard E. Wirz is an Assoc. Professor in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Dept. at the University of California at Los Angeles and holds a joint appointment at NASA JPL. He is Director of the UCLA Plasma & Space Propulsion Laboratory\, where research is focused on the unique partially-ionized plasmas found in space electric propulsion (EP) systems. The lab also develops miniature thrusters and microplasma devices.

In this framework\, the European Commission plays an important role in shaping European energy policies and providing science-based results as generated by the Joint Research Centre (JRC). Indeed\, the JRC has a full directorate dedicated to Nuclear Safety and Security. That directorate has been recently organised into three departments and has issued a new vision and strategy taking also into account societal aspects. One of these departments\, the Nuclear Safety department\, addresses both the reactors and the associated fuels\, and includes nuclear waste transmutation studies. Key research in that area is the development and validation of the fuel elements. The main issues of the minor Actinides bearing fuels and their claddings will be addressed in terms of design requirements\, basic properties assessment and validation. Examples of current research programs and preliminary results will be presented. In this context\, the availability of irradiation facilities to investigate appropriate boundary conditions as defined by the requirements is of paramount importance and the status and future perspectives will be shortly addressed. Finally\, the aspect that is becoming more and more important in the European arena for nuclear energy research is the assessment of societal impacts the outcome of a social study performed on a specific case will also be presented.\n\nBio: Concetta Fazio is deputy Head of the Nuclear Fuel Safety Unit of the European Commission Joint Research Centre. After getting her PhD in Metallurgical Engineering at the Politecnico of Turin\, she has started her research work at the Italian Research Centre ENEA on materials studies for fusion devices\, accelerator driven systems and concentrated solar power. Successively\, she moved to the German Research Institution KIT\, where she was in charge both of the “Partitioning and Transmutation” and “Safety of New Nuclear Systems” programs. She has lead the R&D activities of several international initiatives as for instance the 1MW Liquid Metal Spallation Target (MEGAPIE) international project that has been successfully completed. Successively she has been appointed as initiator\, negotiator and coordinator of the European Joint Program on Nuclear Materials. Its objective was to develop and assess structural and fuel element materials for innovative reactor systems as well as to perform multiscale modelling. At JRC after a first period spent on defining Nuclear Education and Training programs for MSc and PhD students and professional development\, she became scientific assistant to the director of the JRC directorate on nuclear safety and security.

Critical infrastructure systems are essential to our economy and society\, however\, they frequently face disruptions leading to cascading failures across other systems. One challenge is the ability to make accurate predictions of post-disruption systems behavior that capture time and uncertainty dynamics. This talk will cover Bayesian methods developed to address challenges in risk-based predictive analytics. The methods integrate hierarchical Bayesian models with kernel functions to account for uncertainty\, prior knowledge\, and systems information. In addition\, Bayesian updating of infrastructure network response under multiple hazard scenarios is discussed. Case studies to illustrate these methods include resilience modeling of power and water systems. \n \nBio\nHiba Baroud is an assistant professor in the Departments of Civil and Environmental Engineering and Earth and Environmental Sciences\, and the Littlejohn Dean’s Faculty Fellow. Her work explores data and decision analytics to model the resilience and sustainability of critical infrastructure systems and communities. Her research applications are focused on smart cities as well as developing countries. Hiba’s prior experience includes a summer research with IBM at the Watson Research Center\, a fellowship at George Washington University Center for International Business Education and Research\, and a visiting position in the Department of Geography and Environmental Engineering at Johns Hopkins University.

DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n\nWe study the welfare costs of markups in a dynamic model with heterogeneous firms and endogenously variable markups. We find that the welfare costs of markups are large. We decompose the costs of markups into three channels: (i) an aggregate markup that acts like a uniform output tax\, (ii) misallocation of factors of production\, and (iii) an inefficiently low rate of entry. We find that the aggregate markup accounts for about two-thirds of the costs\, misallocation accounts for about one-third\, and the costs due to inefficient entry are negligible. We evaluate simple policies aimed at reducing the costs of markups. Subsidizing entry is not an effective tool in our model: while more competition reduces individual firms’ markups it also reallocates market shares towards larger firms and the net effect is that the aggregate markup hardly changes. Size-dependent policies aimed at reducing concentration can reduce the aggregate markup but have the side-effect of greatly increasing misallocation and reducing aggregate productivity.\n\nhttp://www.virgiliumidrigan.com/uploads/1/3/9/8/13982648/how-costly-markups-09-29-18.pdf UID:54218-13539476@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/54218 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Economics,seminar LOCATION:Lorch Hall - 201 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20180828T112033 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T180000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Real-World Perspectives on Poverty Solutions: Speaker Series DESCRIPTION:Join us for Real-World Perspectives on Poverty Solutions\, a series of talks featuring experts in policy and practice from across the nation.

It is also a forum for University of Michigan students and scholars interested in human rights issues to come together for interdisciplinary intellectual engagement and to promote innovative and impactful research in human rights. Please RSVP for the panel here: http://myumi.ch/Lqkge \n \nPanelists: \n \nCharles Crabtree \nPh.D. Candidate\, Department of Political Science \n\"How Public Opinion Shapes Discriminatory Policing\" \n \nWhy do the police discriminate against racial minorities? Unlike existing studies\, which focus on explicit or implicit biases among the police\, I argue that racial discrimination depends in a conditional way on the extent of egalitarian views among the police and the public. To test the implications of my theory\, I conduct an innovative survey experiment with American law enforcement administrators and elected officials who oversee the police. As predicted\, elected politicians exhibit less racial discrimination in law enforcement oversight when informed that the public supports racial equality in policing. Contrary to my theory\, though\, police do not react to perceived public demand for egalitarianism. Overall\, my results suggest that public attitudes toward racial equality influence police discrimination only indirectly\, through the institutions that monitor and check their power. My paper contributes to the growing inter-disciplinary literature on the politics of policing by illuminating how public opinion shapes law enforcement outcomes. \n \nCharles Crabtree is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Political Science at the University of Michigan. His substantive research focuses on various aspects of repression and discrimination in comparative\, American\, and international politics. Methodologically\, he is interested in research design\, experiments\, and using computational tools to better understand the social world. He has published work on these topics in the British Journal of Political Science\, Conflict Management and Peace Science\, Electoral Studies\, International Interactions\, International Studies Quarterly\, the Journal of Experimental Political Science\, the Journal of Peace Research\, Political Research Quarterly\, Political Analysis\, Political Science Research and Methods\, PS: Political Science & Politics\, Research & Politics\, State Politics & Policy Quarterly\, and in several journals in other fields. \n\n---\nVolha (Olga) Chykina \nPostdoctoral Fellow\, Donia Human Rights Center \n“Public Opinion Towards Immigrants and the Educational Experiences of Immigrant Students: Evidence from Europe and the United States” \n \nIn my work\, I examine whether heightened levels of anti-immigrant sentiment negatively affect the academic outcomes of immigrant youth. More specifically\, I conduct a cross-national examination of the achievement and educational expectations to attain a college degree of first and second-generation immigrant youth in Europe as well as a sub-national examination in the United States. As part of it\, I analyze data from traditional and new immigrant destination countries in Europe. In line with my theory\, I find that an increase in anti-immigrant sentiment is associated with a decrease in student math achievement and student expectations to attain a college degree. I also analyze data from standardized state assessments in California. I find that an increase in anti-immigrant sentiment is associated with a reduction in student scores on these tests. To conduct these analyses\, I create a novel measure of sub-national anti-immigrant sentiment in the United States. Prior studies have largely ignored that students might be influenced by discrimination that occurs outside the schoolhouse. My work addresses this gap in the literature by showing that anti-immigrant sentiment might hamper immigrant educational outcomes. These findings are especially important in light of heightened anti-immigrant sentiment in both Europe and the United States. \n \nVolha Chykina is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Donia Human Rights Center at the University of Michigan. Previously\, she was a Ph.D. student in the Educational Theory and Policy program and the Comparative and International Education program at the Pennsylvania State University. Broadly defined\, her research attempts to answer the question of what drives educational inequality in the United States and cross-nationally. A significant portion of this research examines how the educational policies and characteristics of immigrant and minority students’ communities affect their educational outcomes. Her research has been published or is forthcoming in Sociological Science\, the British Journal of Sociology of Education\, Socius\, The Social Science Journal\, Compare: A Journal of Comparative and International Education\, Globalisation\, Societies and Education\, and European Education. She also has a number of working projects that can be found on her website\, http://volhachykina.org/.\n\n---\nTamy Guberek \nPh.D. Candidate\, School of Information \n“Data Dilemmas: The Impact of Communicating Uncertain Numbers in Human Rights Decision-making”\n\nData about crime\, violence and human rights abuses is shrouded with uncertainty. Missing data is high\, rarely randomly distributed\, and ground truth is almost never attainable. How does communicating the limitations of these data impact decision-making? While human rights scholars recommend that advocates transparently communicate data limitations to audiences\, existing studies from cognitive science and science communication disagree about whether doing so is effective\, counterproductive\, or something in between. In this talk\, I will present early results from experimental research where I find strong evidence that the content of conveying uncertainty in data matters. As predicted\, simple caveats have no impact on decisions\, while more informative expressions of uncertainty do. These findings suggest that those who include numeric information about such difficult to observe phenomena should carefully review and consider the impact of their communication strategies.\n\nTamy Guberek is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Michigan School of Information. Her research focuses on various challenges as data\, archives and technology intersect with advancing human rights and protecting vulnerable communities. She has published in Archival Science\, Statistics Politics and Policy\, and the ACM Human Factors in Computing (CHI) peer-reviewed proceedings\, as well as co-authored various reports with and for human rights practitioners. Prior to graduate school\, Guberek led work in Latin America for the Human Rights Data Analysis Group.\n\n###\nIf you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend this event\, please reach out to umichhumanrights@umich.edu at least 2 weeks in advance of this event.

Stein DESCRIPTION:Professor Stein's abstract:\n\n“The pervasive influence of popular dance-songs in early modern Hispanic literature and colonial cultures has long been recognized by literary and musical scholars. Hundreds of plays\, stories\, and text booklets for vernacular sacred villancicos call for them. Musicologists have focused primarily on analyzing form and genre\, finding and listing musical sources\, categorizing poetic texts\, and generally describing their broad cultural context. \n\nIn this paper\, I focus on dance-songs that were incorporated into sacred music performed across the Hispanic dominions\, despite their repeated condemnation and prohibition. Their tunes\, rhythms\, and harmonic patterns (made especially clear to us in solo instrumental settings) were distinct and recognizable to all kinds of listeners. They communicated meaning through their very musical materials\, not merely in their sung texts.  \n\nMy recent research has uncovered what might be the key to understanding the paradoxical value of these dance-songs to seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century ecclesiastical authorities. Many describe\, execute\, facilitate or narrate the violation of feminine spaces\, womanly precincts\, female privacy\, and even the female body. My presentation moves from a sacred play by Miguel de Cervantes about a conversion in the Americas to provocative excerpts from sacred villancicos composed in Spain\, colonial New Spain (Mexico)\, and colonial Latin America. The paper will be illustrated with both audio examples and visual evidence presented via slides.”\n\nThe talk is part of the Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop on \"Religion in the Atlantic World.\" UID:55521-13752386@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/55521 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free,Music LOCATION:Burton Memorial Tower - Room 506 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20181025T123025 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20181010T180000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Resume Lab DESCRIPTION:If you are in Handshake\, Click \"Join event\" to RSVP\n* Not inHandshake?

The planet is in peril. Oceans are poisoned with human waste. Racism is on the rise. Virulent nationalism has resurfaced across the globe. Religion is shaky and ungrounded. Technology is reaching into our lives instead of enriching it. We seem to have reached an impasse on borders and the role of government. Humans usually develop shared stories to understand moments like these. The current narrative that is shared by religion\, science\, and politics is about the end of it all—the end of the world. But is that what is happening?\n\nAbdul-Matin will address how to confront this time of extraordinary upheaval\, a time in which the failures of our economic and political systems have become clear and the harm is deeply and widely felt. In this moment of upheaval\, of dissolution and awakening\, what is unravelling? What is possible that wasn’t possible before? What is the worldview that we can awaken and cultivate now? What seeds did (y)our ancestors plant for Deep Democracy\, rooted in Beloved Community\, that you could water and cultivate now? \n\nHe will share amazing examples of work happening right now that seeks to nurture whole people and whole communities as we transition away from a world of domination and extraction to one of regeneration\, resilience\, and interdependence.\n\nIbrahim Abdul-Matin is the author of \"Green Deen: What Islam Teaches About Protecting the Planet.\" He has advised two NYC mayors on sustainability policy\, among other issues\, and has also worked with Fortune 500 companies on sustainability and innovation. He has spoken and written for a variety of outlets on diverse topics including Islam and sustainability\, organizing and activism\, and land use process. A former on-air sports contributor to WNYC’s The Takeaway\, Abdul-Matin has appeared on CNN\, Fox News\, and Al Jazeera\, among others. And in 2015 he was named one of the 40 Under 40 Rising Stars in New York City Politics by City & State Magazine.\n\nAbout the Jill S. Harris Memorial Lecture: The Jill S. Harris Memorial Endowment was established in 1985 by Roger and Meredith Harris\, Jill’s parents\, her grandparents Allan and Norma Harris\, and friends. The fund was established in memory of Jill\, a resident of Chicago and undergraduate student at U-M who passed away due to injuries from an auto accident.\n\nThe fund brings a distinguished visitor to campus each year who will appeal to undergraduates interested in the humanities and the arts. The visitor may either be a fellow of the institute for an extended period of time or invited for a few days to present the annual lecture.The visiting fellow will usually interact with undergraduates\, informally and through visits to classes or by other means by which exchanges with undergraduates may be promoted.
