This series will explore the history of Black Islam and the experiences of Black Muslim communities in the Americas\, including North America\, Latin America\, and the Caribbean.\n \nFrom March 4th-18th\, you will have the opportunity to watch *Two Gods* (2020)\, a film by Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali\, on demand and for free. Pre-order your free tickets now: http://watch.eventive.org/gisctwogods\n\n---\n*Two Gods* is the story of Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in Newark\, New Jersey\, who takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives\, illustrating the complexities of everyday Muslim community life.\n\n​​Year: 2020 | Run Time: 82 minutes​​ | Language: English | Director: Zeshawn Ali | Producer: Aman Ali\n \nAn intimate documentary about faith\, renewal\, and healing\, *TWO GODS* follows a Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in New Jersey\, as he takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives. Inside a corner casket shop in East Orange\, laboring amid the sawdust and the long pine boxes\, casket makers work with mentors in the Islamic burial tradition. Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker who finds spiritual grounding in his work\, brings two boys from the local community under his tutelage\; 12-year-old Furquan and 17-year-old Naz\, neither of whom have fathers at home. Hanif teaches Furquan and Naz the practices of Islamic burial rituals as they assist him with his work. Having formerly served time in prison\, Hanif continues to grapple with past mistakes and new challenges\, while his faith and community helps him guide his young charges on their own paths toward healing and embracing life.\n \nShot in a striking black-and-white\, *TWO GODS* explores the juxtaposition of grief and the rituals of death with the vibrancy and potential of adolescence. The documentary turns an empathetic lens on Muslim American stories\, ultimately crafting a moving portrait of both the intimate moments and the complexities of the everyday Muslim American experience.\n---\n\nOn March 17th\, GISC will host *Two Gods* filmmakers Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali for a filmmaker Q&A. This conversation will be moderated by local Detroit filmmaker and GISC Fellow Razi Jafri. RSVP: http://bit.ly/GISCTwoGods\n \nJoin us for the rest of the 'Black Islam in the Americas' series:\n \nOn March 29that 1:00 PM ET\, GISC will host Dr. Su'ad Abdul Khabeer and Dr. Rasul Miller for a lecture on Black Islam in the Americas\, with a focus on the United States. Dr. Su’ad Abdul Khabeer is a scholar\, artist\, activist\, and author of* Muslim Cool: Race\, Religion\, and Hip Hop in the United States* (2016). She is an associate professor of American Culture and Director of the Arab and Muslim American Studies program at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from Princeton University\, is a graduate of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University\, and completed the Islamic Studies diploma program of the Institute at Abu Nour University (Damascus). In her most recent work\, Umi’s Archive\, Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines the intersections of official history and the untold stories of Black women and Black Muslims through the lens of her mother’s life. Umi means mother in Arabic\, and Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines her mother’s photographic and literary archives\, and so the digital exhibition series is Umi's Archive. The project sees everyday Black women as people who know things we all need to know. Dr. Rasul Miller's work looks into Black Muslim communities in the Atlantic world\, Black radicalism and its impact on social and cultural movements in the twentieth-century U.S.\, Black internationalism\, and West African intellectual history. Dr. Miller's current book project\, *Black Muslim Cosmopolitanism: The Global Character of New York City's Black Muslim Movements*\, examines the Black internationalist origins of early twentieth-century Black Sunni Muslim congregations in and around New York City\, and the cultural and political orientations that characterized subsequent communities of Black Muslims in the U.S. who built robust\, transnational networks as they actively engaged traditions and communities of Muslims on the African continent.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

Map ≠ Territory deconstructs maps that have been used to subjugate\, appropriate\, and oppress\, as well as the maps that counter that power through emancipation and advocacy. The exhibit critically engages with materials that span from the colonial era to modern-day Detroit.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.

In this program\, students build upon the knowledge gained in a first undergraduate research experience to further explore the connections between research\, a liberal arts education\, and communicating skills to advance their future professional goals. Students are expected to explore various written and oral possibilities for communicating their research process\, identifying the limits set by the discipline and the opportunities that lie beyond.\n\nApplications for the 2022-2023 academic year cohort open February 14th.\nPriority Deadline for the applications is March 18th\n\nLearn more at: myumi.ch/uroprs UID:91080-21676460@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/91080 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Applications,Fellowship,first-generation,Interdisciplinary,Networking,Research,research data,Sophomore,The College Of Literature\, Science\, And The Arts,Undergraduate,Undergraduate Students,Urop LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211207T143030 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Prisons and Politics in America DESCRIPTION:This exhibit examines the political reasons for why people are imprisoned: for speaking out\, for writing\, for violating repressive laws\, framed because of their color or politics\, for stealing from the rich\, for refusing the military draft\, for whistleblowing\, for attempting to overthrow the government\, for standing up for a belief\, or for walking over a forbidden line.\n\nThe items focus on maintaining one's humanity behind bars\, promoting political causes\, and offering solidarity in support of prisoners.\n\nThe groups and individuals whose stories are featured in the Labadie Collection share one thing in common: fighting to make a better world. In the process\, many of them have been arrested\, brutalized\, censored\, deported\, imprisoned\, or executed. Some were innocent victims of violent police or discriminatory policies.\n\nThe U-M Library’s Joseph A. Labadie Collection documents the history of social protest movements and marginalized political communities from the nineteenth century to the present. Established in 1911\, it is the oldest and largest public archive of its kind in the world.

Christianity began as a Jewish sect\, and the quarrels in the early days were intra-Jewish quarrels. By the end of the first century\, especially with the growing influence of Greek sources on the development of the faith\, Jews and Judaism began to be cast as satanic. When Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire\, Judaism became a prime target of Christian hatred\, and antisemitism became a fundamental part of Christianity. It has brought untold suffering on the Jewish people and their religion\, most horribly the Holocaust. This lecture will review the history of how antisemitism came to be a central part of the Christian religion.\n\nReverend Kenneth W. Phifer\, PhD holds a BA degree in history from Harvard College and a doctorate from the University of Chicago. A Unitarian Universalist minister for over fifty years\, he served the Ann Arbor congregation for 25 years (1980-2005). He is the author of three books and some two dozen articles and has been active in many peace groups and social justice movements. He is a father of 5\, grandfather of 17\, and has one great granddaughter.\n\nThis is the second of five lectures to be presented once each month from February through June of 2022. A new series will start in September 2022.The next lecture in the current series will take place April 12\, 2022.The title is: Public Opinion on Climate Change: An In-Depth Look. Learn from well-known experts about an array of interesting subjects\, with an interactive Q&A period following each lecture.\n\nPreregistration is required via the OLLI website or phone.

However\, although it is used extensively in the field of complex systems and embraced by social scientists\, only a handful of researchers in natural sciences incorporate agent-based modeling components into their theoretical investigations. In this talk\, I will present findings from two of my prior studies on reconstructing existing theoretical models through agent-based modeling and I will argue that the tools and methods of Learning Sciences can help us cultivate productive ways of augmenting existing theoretical studies with agent-based components in a manner that is commensurate with scientists’ ways of thinking\, which would in turn accelerate adoption of the complexity lens by more and more natural scientists.

Primate vocalisations appear fixed and innate in comparison\, which creates an evolutionary puzzle. However\, primates do show evidence of developmental plasticity within their use of calls and the contexts in which they vocalise\, suggesting a potential evolutionary connection to the flexibility of language. To better understand these possible connections\, I investigated a capuchin call\, the twitter\, which is a call that appears to show developmental changes. I collected observational focal data and acoustic data on wild white-faced capuchin monkeys in Costa Rica. I examined which behavioural states and specific behaviours were associated with twitters\, and whether this showed differences across age groups. I also examined the acoustic structure of twitter calls\, looking at whether there were changes across in the acoustic parameters of the call. I found evidence of age-related differences in capuchin twitter calls\, which suggests more flexibility in vocal ontogeny and the usage of calls than previously assumed. There appear to be interesting acoustic shifts as well\, which suggest greater flexibility in primate vocal development. This call appears to broaden to a whole new context later in life\, which is beyond what has been seen before.

Mythologies abound on the key steps you need to launch and sustain a music career\, but what does it really take to carve out a path that fulfills personal goals and makes the world a better place? Curated and hosted by Matthew Dear\, in collaboration with the University of Michigan EXCEL Lab\, this virtual seminar investigates those questions through the lens of five leaders who have paved unique\, transformative pathways to success. \n\nOver the course of Fall 2021\, Matthew Dear interviewed five luminaries who have carved out unique\, highly-impactful\, and innovative careers that intersect music\, entrepreneurship\, social impact\, and creative storytelling. These interviews propel through the personal stories of each guest to illuminate the complexity of finding one’s path to self-actualization\, while framing the circuitous paths that are central to nearly every successful professional arts journey today.\n\nRuth Daniel is a multi-award winning CEO\, activist and change-maker. Inspired by the transformative use of hip-hop in the drug cartels of Medellin\, Colombia\, when a young MC said: ‘If it wasn’t for hip-hop\, I would be dead. Hip-hop gave me another option and I’m truly thankful for that.’ Ruth believes art has a capacity to make change in the toughest of contexts. From guitarist at the age of eight to record label owner\, band manager\, fundraiser\, international cultural activist\, entrepreneur\, educator\, influential speaker (TEDx) to prestigious award winner within a national arena (Social Enterprise of the Year & Manchester Woman of Culture to name a couple)\, Ruth’s passion to empower people to build their own positive futures through creative entrepreneurial programmes\, the development of cultural spaces and unique artistic collaboration projects shows no boundaries in terms of fields of work.\n\nfor more information and registration visit https://myumi.ch/7ePzb UID:92145-21687199@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92145 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Free LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220211T134144 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T143000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:IISS Lecture Series. Palimpsests of Themselves Logic and Commentary in Postclassical Muslim South Asia DESCRIPTION:Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Seminar (IISS) is pleased to announce a book workshop with Professor Asad Q. Ahmed on his new groundbreaking monograph \"Palimpsests of Themselves Logic and Commentary in Postclassical Muslim South Asia\" (University of California Press\, 2022).\n \n Palimpsests of Themselves is an intervention in current discussions about the fate of philosophy in postclassical Islamic intellectual history. Asad Q. Ahmed uses as a case study the most advanced logic textbook of Muslim South Asia\, The Ladder of the Sciences\, presenting in English its first full translation and extended commentary. He offers detailed assessments of the technical contributions of the work\, explores the social and institutional settings of the vast commentarial response it elicited\, and develops a theory of the philosophical commentary that is internal to the tradition. These approaches to the commentarial text complicate presuppositions upon which questions of Islam’s intellectual decline are erected. As such\, Ahmed offers a unique and powerful opportunity to understand the transmission of knowledge across the Islamic world.\n\nRegister at https://umich.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJEtcu2rqzMtGdfi9eFQHGUAG26OTtA4Mg7n UID:92131-21687044@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92131 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Area Studies,Books,Discussion,Global Islamic Studies,Iiss Lecture Series,Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Seminar,Lecture,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220304T131255 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T150000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:A Human Factors Career in Industry: Is It for You?

Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act. This reform law was designed to modernize the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) and U.S. industrial chemical policy to promote health\, but has it lived up to its promise?\n\nToxic chemicals can harm our health as these substances are present in everyday products (e.g.\, cleaning products\, cookware\, housing and infrastructure materials\, bedding\, toys). Unlike pharmaceuticals\, industrial and commercial chemicals are rarely tested for safety before they reach the U.S. market. However\, amended TSCA gave the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency new authorities to require manufacturers provide the data needed for risk assessments. People expect the outcomes of implementing our environmental laws to be equitable health protection for the public from environmental harms. Yet\, key components of risk evaluations seem complex and thus inaccessible to the public. Our goal is to demystify the process of assessing the science to move toward evidence-based safeguards communities want for public health.\n\nOur virtual event will examine key issues from a series of recent scientific workshops. We will present a case study of applying the principles to treating cancer and non-cancer health effects in similar manners in the risk assessment for the chemical perchloroethylene (PCE). We will explore the use of probabilistic assessments in TSCA risk evaluations. The amended TSCA gave the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency new requirements and authorities. The public health impact points to the need for the U.S. EPA to fully use its new powers to evaluate all risks from hazardous chemicals and set policies which protect health and are accountable to high-risk communities. Preventive actions are urgently needed.\n\nSpeakers and discussants include:\n * Regina Strong (Office of the Environmental Justice Public Advocate for the Michigan Department of Environment\, Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE))\;\n * Wilma Subra (Technical Director\, Louisiana Environmental Action Network)\; \n * Wendy Heiger-Bernays\, PhD (Clinical Professor\, Department of Environmental Health\, Boston University)\; \n * Gary Ginsberg\, PhD (New York Dept of Health\, Center for Environmental Health (CEH))\; \n * Chanese Forté\, PhD\, MPH (Assistant Research Scientist\, University of California\, San Francisco\, Program on Reproductive Health and the Environment)\; \n * Greylin Nielsen\, MPH (Doctoral student\, Department of Environmental Health\, Boston University School of Public Health).\n\nREGISTRATION REQUIRED\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_K4BCE3rXSIuGYHsJ3n5LFw UID:92216-21688196@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92216 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Chemistry,Ecology,Environment,Industrial and Operations Engineering,Interdisciplinary,Life Science,Lifelong Learning,Natural Sciences,Nursing,Politics,Poverty,Pre-Health,Public Health,Public Policy,Rackham,Research,Science,Social Impact,Social Justice,Talk,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220307T094632 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220308T170000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Minor in Writing Virtual Info Session DESCRIPTION:The Sweetland Minor in Writing is designed for undergraduate students who are interested in developing their disciplinary and professional writing abilities while pursuing their majors.

Attendees who do not comply will be asked to leave. Policies will be updated as circumstances and requirements change in our community. Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.*\n\nOne of Canada’s finest artists\, Bruce Cockburn has enjoyed an illustrious career shaped by politics\, spirituality\, and musical diversity. His remarkable journey has seen him embrace folk\, jazz\, rock\, and worldbeat styles while travelling to such far-flung places as Guatemala\, Mali\, Mozambique\, and Nepal\, and writing memorable songs about his ever-expanding world of wonders. “My job\,” he explains\, “is to try and trap the spirit of things in the scratches of pen on paper and the pulling of notes out of metal.”\n\nThat scratching and pulling has earned Cockburn high praise as an exceptional songwriter and a revered guitarist. His songs of romance\, protest\, and spiritual discovery are among the best to have emerged from Canada over the last 50 years. His guitar playing\, both acoustic and electric\, has placed him in the company of the world’s top instrumentalists. And he remains deeply respected for his activism on issues from native rights and land mines to the environment and Third World debt\, working for organizations such as Oxfam\, Amnesty International\, Doctors Without Borders\, and Friends of the Earth.\n\nThroughout his career\, Cockburn has deftly captured the joy\, pain\, fear\, and faith of human experience in song. Whether singing about retreating to the country or going up against chaos\, tackling imperialist lies or embracing ecclesiastical truths\, he has always expressed a tough yet hopeful stance: to kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight. “We can’t settle for things as they are\,” he once warned. “If you don’t tackle the problems\, they’re going to get worse.”\n\nFor his many achievements\, the Ottawa-born artist has been honoured with 13 Juno Awards\, an induction into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame\, as well as the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award\, and has been made an Officer of the Order of Canada. But he never rests on his laurels. “I’d rather think about what I’m going to do next\,” says Cockburn. “My models for graceful aging are guys like John Lee Hooker and Mississippi John Hurt\, who never stop working till they drop\, as I fully expect to be doing\, and just getting better as musicians and as human beings.”\n\nHis commitment to growth has made Bruce Cockburn both an exemplary citizen and a legendary artist whose prized songbook will be celebrated for many years to come.
