Film Screening:CMENAS Virtual Viewing: *Stray*
2021-03-22 08:00 - 20:00 | Off Campus Location
For a limited time, we are sponsoring free access to this film's virtual viewing. For instructions, please email cmenas@umich.edu with the subject “Request to watch ‘Stray'”

About the film:
Through the eyes of three stray dogs wandering the streets of Istanbul, STRAY explores what it means to live as a being without status or security. As they search for food and shelter, Zeytin, Nazar and Kartal embark on inconspicuous journeys through Turkish society that allow us an unvarnished portrait of human life — and their own canine culture.

Zeytin, fiercely independent, embarks on solitary adventures through the city at night; Nazar, nurturing and protective, easily befriends the humans around her; while Kartal, a shy puppy living on the outskirts of a construction site, finds refuge with the security guards who care for her. The disparate lives of Zeytin, Nazar and Kartal intersect when they each form intimate bonds with a group of young Syrians who share the streets with them.

Whether they lead us into bustling streets or decrepit ruins, the gaze of these strays act as windows into the overlooked corners of society: women in loveless marriages, protesters without arms, refugees without sanctuary. The film is a critical observation of human civilization through the unfamiliar gaze of dogs and a sensory voyage into new ways of seeing.

Exhibition:For Your Eyes Only
2021-03-22 08:00 - 23:00
Please Note: This exhibition is designed to be viewed through the gallery window on Thayer St.

Yasmine Nasser Diaz is the 2021 Efroymson Emerging Artist at the Institute for the Humanities.

For Your Eyes Only is the latest iteration of multidisciplinary artist Yasmine Nasser Diaz’s bedroom installation. At first glance, the constructed space is a shimmering homage to the bedroom disco—a sanctuary for uninhibited dance and self-expression. It has also become the setting from which many personal videos are made and shared widely on social media, where platforms such as Instagram and TikTok have blurred the boundary between public and private. Projected into the space is a montage of casual videos shared by female-identifying and non-binary persons of SWANA* origin dancing solo in their rooms. To some, the videos may seem innocent and innocuous, but they can also be seen as acts of defiance that assert the autonomy of bodies that have been surveilled, scrutinized, and censored throughout history. Alongside these intimate moments is a separate reel showing political figures and protest movements from the SWANA region. The images demonstrate the fluctuating attitudes and regulations impacting human rights and freedoms based on gender, and exemplify how—whether we are physically at a protest or sharing our physicality in virtual spaces—our bodies are engaged in some level of risk.
*Southwest Asian/North African

This project is supported by a grant from the Efroymson Family Fund.

Presentation:Clinical Science Brown Bag: Racial/Ethnic Differences in the Relationship between Financial Worry and White Matter Hyperintensities in Diverse Older Adults
2021-03-22 09:00 - 21:50 | Off Campus Location
Socioeconomic status is known to affect brain health, and white matter hyperintensities (WMH) in particular, through stress, inflammatory, and metabolic pathways. WMH reflect underlying small vessel ischemic damage and cardiovascular disease and are an important predictor for cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease and related disorders. Interestingly, prior research indicates that the association between socioeconomic status and WMH differs across race and ethnicity. This study examines how a unique measure of socioeconomic status - financial worry - is associated with WMH and whether these associations differ across race and ethnicity in a sample of older non-Hispanic Black, Hispanic, and non-Hispanic White adults in northern Manhattan. Theoretical background, findings, and implications of the results will be discussed.

Presentation:Developmental Brown Bag: Navigating Fraught Claims and Science Communication: The Politics of Doing Social Justice in Developmental Psychology
2021-03-22 12:00 - 13:00 | Off Campus Location
Abstract:
Scientific research often promises a better life, and increasingly, is being used to understand social problems such as poverty and inequality. Researchers who address questions with social and political significance may find themselves in fraught positions where they must defend their ethics and morality, disciplinary training, and status as objective investigators. In this talk, I show how a subfield of researchers who have strong moral and social obligations to improving the lives of vulnerable children through scientific research become the center of controversy, drawing criticism from both progressives and conservatives alike. These neuroscientists and developmental psychologists study the impact of poverty and adversity on the developing brain and suggest that children’s cognitive abilities and mental health are affected by experiences in early childhood; they argue that their studies are powerful evidence that add to the literature on the social determinants of health. Despite these good intentions, scientists face criticism from progressives that their research is racist and eugenicist, and from conservatives that they are hijacking objective science to further their political ends. I detail the different ways that scientists respond to these claims using conceptions of hope, plasticity, and anti-determinism. Their experiences suggest that scientists doing research with great social and political significance are likely to face controversy where their objectivity and morality are questioned. I argue we should not back away from contentious topics, but instead engage with expert communities and lay publics to negotiate the kinds of political science and social justice we conduct in the university.

Lecture / Discussion:Remaking a Life: How Women Living with HIV/AIDS Confront Inequality
2021-03-22 12:00 - 13:30 | Off Campus Location
For decades, stories about women living with HIV/AIDS often centered stigma and tragedy. While the injuries of inequality continue to undermine structural care and self-care for many, models of thriving must also inform our conceptual landscape. Join us to hear different stories — about the policies and activism that support the transformation of individual women’s lives, and the ongoing transformation of the HIV/AIDS epidemic itself.

FEATURED AUTHOR
Dr. Celeste Watkins-Hayes, Professor in the Department of Sociology and in the Ford School of Public Policy, and University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor at the University of Michigan. She is the author of the award-winning book, Remaking a Life: How Women Living with HIV/AIDS Confront Inequality.

PANELISTS
Dr. Vincent Hutchings, Hanes Walton Jr Collegiate Professor of Political Science and African Studies and University Diversity and Social Transformation Professor at the University of Michigan

Dr. Alford A. Young, Jr., Edgar G. Epps Collegiate and Arthur F. Thurnau Professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Michigan. He also holds an appointment at that institution's Department of Afroamerican and African Studies (DAAS).

The second conversation in our series, Forgotten Bodies: Conversations on Research & Recognition; a series that elevates research that inspires or demands new paradigms of human dignity. The title is borrowed from poet Claudia Rankine’s declaration, “I am invested in keeping present the forgotten bodies.” Each conversation provides models of relevant, necessary research that resists past patterns of exclusion and expands our sense of community. Authors will discuss recent projects, the process of writing as a political act and their vision for informing activism, policy and practice.

2021-03-22 12:00 - 13:00 | Off Campus Location
A moving, 10-minute sketch about a mother who dies with a family secret that spurs feuding between the two daughters and grieving husband she leaves behind.

Lecture / Discussion:Cognitive Science Seminar Series: "Homeostatic Processes Are Not Actions: Against Capacity Views of Action and Agential Control"
2021-03-22 14:30 - 16:00 | Off Campus Location
Malte Hendrickx (U-M philosophy) will give a talk titled "Homeostatic Processes Are Not Actions: Against Capacity Views of Action and Agential Control."

Please visit the Seminar Series website for Zoom access information.

ABSTRACT
Philosophy of action seeks to explicate the difference between what we do (actions) and what happens to us (mere behavior). The popular control view argues that one acts if and only if one agentially controls a movement. But is an agent in control only when causally affecting an occurrent movement in the right way? Or is having the capacity to affect the unfolding movement, as needed, sufficient for agential control? According to the "Capacity View", whether I control a movement is not settled by what I do to control it, but by what I could do to control it. I show that this is wrong, since there are controlled movements for which agents have the capacity for control, yet which are neither actions nor agentially controlled. These are movements like your passive breathing and blinking, which are controlled by bodily subsystems and allow for agential interference. The capacity view is unable to separate the passive process from the active interference. Consequently, the capacity for agential control can neither be a sufficient condition for action, nor for agential control.

Livestream / Virtual:Freedman Lecture Panel

Lecture / Discussion:Aerospace Engineering Department Seminar: Rocket Science 2.0: How Aerospace Engineering Benefits From Social Science and Engineering Education Research: Adaptability, Risk-Taking and Value-Making
2021-03-22 16:00 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location
Hadi Ali
Ph.D. student
Engineering Education Systems and Design
Arizona State University

The Aerospace Engineering curriculum, in its current form, is largely a derivative of the post-World War II era, when American engineering colleges embraced the analytical mode of engineering science. However, the changing nature of work, largely influenced by the rise of digital technologies and smart machines, is calling for curricular change to integrate the drive of big data in design and analysis; the modularized, continuous and recombined nature of learning with work; and the grounding in human relationships as it affects productivity, teamwork and equity. I share my journey from a personal interest in studying the Apollo Lunar Module to an interest in engineering education research. Engineers can benefit from social science research to explore the increased connectivity and interaction between humans and machines, and to understand the shift in the way we relate to one another, and the way we see cultures, economies, and institutions. I structure my talk around three major themes of my work: adaptability, risk-taking and value-making. I share my vision for the implications on the Aerospace Engineering curriculum and its purpose in graduating engineers who are socially conscious, who can survive change, and who are able to shift to new directions.

Promoting accountability for human rights violations is often a central element of peacebuilding in conflict-torn states. When domestic rule-of-law institutions have foundered, some governments have taken the remarkable step of inviting international actors to step into the breach. The United Nations in particular has sometimes shared core sovereign authorities to enforce laws, probe crimes, and prosecute and adjudicate them. These joint ventures aim to combine local and international knowledge and resources to advance accountability. In practice, however, sharing sovereign authority is very difficult to carry out effectively.

This Donia Human Rights Center event will feature a discussion of “Sovereignty Sharing in Fragile States” a new book by University of Michigan Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy professor John Ciorciari in conversation with Prof. Susanna Campbell of American University, an expert on peacebuilding and international interventions. Ciorciari will share findings from the book, outlining conditions under which shared sovereignty tends to fail or succeed in advancing accountability for human rights violations. He will pay special attention to the contrasting experiences of “hybrid” criminal tribunals for Sierra Leone, Cambodia and Lebanon and a unique international anti-impunity commission in Guatemala. Campbell will offer comments and insights based on her extensive research on global-local interactions in international peacebuilding initiatives in Africa, Asia, and beyond.

This event is co-sponsored by: Center for Southeast Asian Studies, and the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy International Policy Center and Weiser Diplomacy Center.

John D. Ciorciari is an associate professor of public policy at the University of Michigan’s Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy, where he directs the Weiser Diplomacy Center and International Policy Center. He is also a faculty affiliate of the Donia Human Rights Center. His research focuses on international law and politics in the Global South, with a particular focus on Asia. He is the author of "Sovereignty Sharing in Fragile States" (Stanford University Press, 2021) and co-author of "Hybrid Justice: The Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia" (University of Michigan Press 2014), among other articles and books. He has been an Andrew Carnegie Fellow, an Asia Society Fellow, a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford, a policy official in the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of International Affairs, and an associate at the international law firm of Davis Polk & Wardwell. He holds a BA and JD from Harvard and an MPhil and DPhil from Oxford, where he was a Fulbright Scholar.

Susanna Campbell is assistant professor at the School of International Service at American University and director of the Research on International Policy Implementation Lab. Her research focuses on statebuilding, peacebuilding, peacekeeping, international development and humanitarian aid, international institutions and NGOs, and issues of civil war and peace. She is the author of "Global Governance and Local Peace" (Cambridge University Press, 2018) and co-author of book manuscript entitled "Aid in Conflict." She has conducted extensive fieldwork in conflict-affected countries, received several large grants for her research, and published widely in prominent peer-reviewed journals. She also engages regularly in policy practice. She directs the Research on International Policy Implementation Lab (RIPIL), an affiliate of Bridging the Gap, and recently completed her term as a senior advisor for the congressionally-mandated Task Force on Extremism in Fragile States. She has led evaluations of the United Nations Peacebuilding Fund, United Nations Development Program, the World Bank, the UK Department for International Development (DFID), and Care International. She has also worked for the Council on Foreign Relations and UNICEF Burundi. She received her PhD in 2012 from Tufts University and was a Post-Doctoral Researcher at The Graduate Institute in Geneva and Columbia University’s Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies.

Workshop / Seminar:HEP-Astro Seminar | Understanding the Limitations and Evolution of Black Hole Feedback in Massive Galaxies
2021-03-22 16:00 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location
Please contact Beth Demkowski, demkowsk@umich.edu for Zoom link.

Energetic feedback from supermassive black holes is thought to be responsible for preventing star formation in massive galaxies, including our own Milky Way. The most massive galaxies in the Universe, which live at the centers of galaxy clusters, provide a unique, "high-contrast" opportunity to study the details of this feedback. I will present a summary of work from our group studying the limitations and details of black hole feedback in massive galaxies, the evolution of the cooling/feedback balance over ~10 Gyr, and what we have learned about lower-mass galaxies by studying these most-massive systems. I will finish with a summary of other cluster research, and a look ahead to the future of research in this field.

Presentation:MIDAS Seminar Series and Michigan AI Initiative Co-Present: Mona Diab, Computer Science, George Washington University
2021-03-22 16:00 - 17:00 | Off Campus Location - https://umich.zoom.us/j/97486977230
Advances in machine learning have led to quite fluent natural language generation technologies. Most of our current optimizations and evaluations focus on accuracy in output. Faithful generation is considered a nice to have, a luxury. In this talk I make the argument that faithful generation is crucial to our generation technologies especially given the scale and impact NLP technologies have on people’s lives.

Mona Diab is a Full Professor of Computer Science at the George Washington University where she directs the Care4Lang NLP lab. She is also Research Scientist with Facebook AI. She conducts research in Statistical Natural Language Processing (NLP) is a rapidly growing, exciting field of research in artificial intelligence and computer science. Interdisciplinarity is inherent to NLP, drawing on the fields of computer algorithms, software engineering, statistics, machine learning, linguistics, pragmatics, information technology, etc. In NLP, researchers model language and its use, and build both analytical models and predictive ones. In Professor Diab’s NLP lab, they address problems in social media processing, building robust enabling technologies such as syntactic and semantic processing tools for written texts in different languages, information extraction tools for large data, multilingual processing, machine translation, and computational sociolinguistic processing. Professor Diab has a special interest in Arabic NLP, where the emphasis has been on investigating Arabic dialect processing where there are very few available automated resources.

Livestream / Virtual:STS Speaker. A Conversation on Prototype Nation
2021-03-22 16:00 - 17:15 | Off Campus Location
How did China’s mass manufacturing and “copycat” production transform, in the global tech imagination, from something holding the nation back to a key asset? Prototype Nation offers a rich transnational analysis of how the promise of democratized innovation and entrepreneurial life has shaped China’s governance and global image. With historical precision and ethnographic detail, Silvia Lindtner reveals how a growing distrust in Western models of progress and development, including Silicon Valley and the tech industry after the financial crisis of 2007–08, shaped the rise of the global maker movement and the vision of China as a “new frontier” of innovation. Lindtner’s investigations draw on more than a decade of research in experimental work spaces—makerspaces, coworking spaces, innovation hubs, hackathons, and startup weekends—in China, the United States, Africa, Europe, Taiwan, and Singapore, as well as in key sites of technology investment and industrial production—tech incubators, corporate offices, and factories. She examines how the ideals of the maker movement, to intervene in social and economic structures, served the technopolitical project of prototyping a “new” optimistic, assertive, and global China. In doing so, Lindtner demonstrates that entrepreneurial living influences governance, education, policy, investment, and urban redesign in ways that normalize the endurance of sexism, racism, colonialism, and labor exploitation. Prototype Nation shows that by attending to the bodies and sites that nurture entrepreneurial life, technology can be extricated from the seemingly endless cycle of promise and violence.

register here.

Takatoshi Hayashi is a kokeshi maker who lives and works in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi prefecture, Japan. After his home city was devastated by the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, Hayashi started making kokeshi that are based on forms of traditional kokeshi--a wooden doll of a round face and slender body made by lathe--infusing them with imaginative designs drawn from pop culture. His kokeshi brand "Ishinomaki Kokeshi" is dubbed as "kawaii" ("cute") and attracts many Japanese and international fans. In this intimate conversation, Hayashi and UMMA's Curator of Asian Art, Natsu Oyobe, will talk about the history of kokeshi, its regional differences using UMMA's traditional kokeshi collection, and how his creation relates to the tradition and the memories of the earthquake.
