Since this time\, massive casualties\, human rights violations\, and an unprecedented refugee crisis have ensued. Women artists of Ukraine have responded. They paint on found materials in refugee housing\, illustrate in bomb shelters\, photograph their shelled cities wearing press passes and bulletproof jackets. They document\, create\, and share. They post their daily journals and images on social media. They perform at the Grammy Awards. They know their message is powerful\, and the amplification of their voices is critical for victory in a very real battle for survival.\n \nCurated by Grace Mahoney (U-M Slavic Languages and Literatures) and Jessica Zychowicz\, Ph.D. (Fulbright Ukraine and U-M Alumna)\, \"'I have a crisis for you': Women Artists of Ukraine Respond to War\" showcases work created by women artists in response to Russia’s war in Ukraine. The involved artists are painters\, photographers\, filmmakers\, poets\, translators\, and textile artists. Many of the works exhibited demonstrate a continuity of engagement by the artists with the topic of war\, especially since 2014 when the people of Ukraine gathered in a “Revolution of Dignity” against attempts by the Russian Federation to control the country’s independence resulting in Russia’s annexation of the Crimean Peninsula and backing of pro-Russian separatists in Ukraine’s east.\n \nThe featured artists have also been selected because of their prominent interest and exploration of issues relating to gender in their works. The title for this exhibit comes from a poem of the same name by Lyuba Yakimchuk:\n“— our love’s gone missing\, I explain to a friend/ it vanished in one of the wars/ we waged in our kitchen/ — change the word ‘war’ to ‘crisis\,’ he suggests/ because a crisis is something everyone has from time to time.”\n \nLike in Yakimchuk’s poem\, many of these artists approach the war with personal perspectives. They intertwine\, juxtapose\, and disrupt experiences of war with the intimacies of personal relationships\, the workings interior lives\, and perceptions of social roles. The featured artworks and documents engage a range of subjects from women volunteering as combatants to the processes of grieving and reflect ongoing discourses in Ukrainian feminist scholarship.

Rather than imagining it as a singular\, coherent object\, this exhibit seeks to introduce the diversity\, difference\, and complexity inherent in feminist activism in Japan. As in other cultural contexts\, “feminism” in Japan can invoke sharply different associations\, from office workers trying to reshape taken-for-granted structures of power and authority\, to mothers advocating for safer school lunches after the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disasters\, and queer couples seeking legal recognition for the families they have created. Mainstream feminist activism in Japan has focused on advocating for change in families\, workplaces\, schools\, political institutions\, and laws\, among many other contexts. Many ­– but certainly not all – feminist activists in Japan are also responding to the lasting legacies of Japanese colonial projects\, working toward recognition\, repair\, and meaningful reparations for racial and gender-based violence that continue to impact communities disproportionately.\n\nThis exhibit features original portraits of feminists who have shaped the landscape of women's and gender rights in Japan and beyond. Created by nine contemporary artists in Japan and the United States\, the portraits and accompanying texts challenge simplistic understandings of \"feminism\" while also drawing attention to a diversity of experiences\, needs\, and activism within Japan. This exhibit also spotlights the history of Japanese studies at the University of Michigan in conjunction with the Center for Japanese Studies' 75th anniversary celebration. \n\n“Portraits of Feminism in Japan” is open for viewing M-F 9am-4pm or by appointment. University of Michigan instructors can email LaneHallExhibits@umich.edu to request a group tour or schedule a class visit.\n\nFeatured artists:\nElaine Cromie\, JenClare B.

They can be as personal as your auntie’s renegade community kitchen that she built after a natural disaster\, or cooking with your dad\, who grew up poor\, and taught you how to be resourceful in the kitchen. It can be choosing to share moments of laughter with your loved ones in a time of hardship\, or sitting on the porch with your elders and learning from their stories of the past. Too often\, climate conversations ignore these narratives of community resourcefulness and creativity in times of adversity. \n\nThe Future Is With Our People brings together work from 10+ UM students who live\, work\, play\, love\, and hope in the face of uncertainties and injustices. Through these pieces\, the artists tell stories about the customs\, communities\, relationships\, and experiences that bring them joy and a drive to demand a better future. As the climate crisis intensifies\, we must recognize that solutions often lie within us\, our communities\, and our cultures. This art exhibit attempts to express just how vital our stories can be in building a sustainable and just future for present and future generations to thrive in. \n\nJoin the Student Life Sustainabilty Cultural Organizers and the Center for Campus Involvement for an art exhibition on the first floor of the Union from Feb 13-Feb 24.

Deeply rooted in community\, she cultivates and reaffirms the human connections that ultimately sustain us. Her recent work explores the emergent themes of belonging as seen through the histories of student rebellions in Chicago public schools between 1968 and 1980.\n\nHer site-specific installation *With Care*\, created for the Institute for the Humanities Gallery\, presents the documentary photographs of influential Mexican-born artist\, teacher\, and friend Diana Solís in visual dialogue with Marroquin’s own creative work which includes ceramic sculptures and printmaking. Solís’s photography reflects over 25 years of transnational Chicana and lesbian organizing primarily in Chicago and Mexico City between 1975 and 1990. \n\nAbout the Artist\nNicole Marroquin is an interdisciplinary artist\, researcher\, and teacher educator whose work explores spatial justice and Latinx history. Marroquin works with youth and communities to decenter dominant narratives and to address displacement and erasure. Her current work explores belonging through histories of student rebellions in Chicago Public Schools from 1968 to 1980. Through research and creative practice\, she aims to recover and re-present histories of Black and brown youth and women’s leadership in the struggle for justice in Chicago. \n\nMarroquin has presented her work at the Kochi Biennale\, the Annual Conference of the American Association of Research Librarians\, University of Maine\, New York Archivist Round Table\, Jane Addams Hull House Museum\, Northwestern University\, DePaul Museum of Art\, on WLPN Lumpen Radio\, Gallery 400\, Hyde Park Art Center and more.

These will be weekly discussions on a variety of topics\, but all of them will be discussed with a queer lens. We'll bring the topic\, you bring the discussion! Everyone is welcome to join the Conversations\, and the voices of those most impacted by the week's topic will be prioritized.\n\nTopics will be announced the week before on our social medias and on the event pages. Registration is not required\, nor is consistent attendance. Come when you want\, bring your friends\, and let's have a Conversation!\n\nUpcoming topics:\n4/12/23 - Weight Inclusivity\n\nThere are a lot of social ideas of what someone's body \"should\" look like\, especially when it comes to weight. Body positivity is more visible than ever\, but so is fatphobia. With the help of our friends of the School of Public Health's Weight Inclusive Initiative\, we'll dive into the ways that queer bodies and queer cultures interact with and complicate the already complex ideas we have around one's weight. Are queer people held to a higher standard than non-queer folks? Do we hold each other to higher standards within our own community? Are there any major connections between fatphobia and gender dysphoria?\n\nSpectrum Center Event Accessibility Statement:\nThe Spectrum Center is dedicated to working towards offering equitable access to all of the events we organize.

Morris has used his work to engage in various social conversations addressing themes of race\, spirituality\, history\, mental wellness and community. As a native Detroiter\, Morris has always had a fondness for his hometown\, which is evident in his work. \n\nMorris’ artistic influence began to manifest at a very early age\, as he took found objects from around his home and created new works. However\, his familial connections also informed his development. Grandmother\, Dell Pryor\, a gallerist in the city of Detroit across four decades\, exposed James to many emerging and master artists. Some of those names that ultimately influenced and inspired Morris include Adger Cowans\, Hugh Grannum\, Lester Sloan\, Al Loving\, Gilda Snowden\, Shirley Woodson\, Anthony Barboza\, and Eric Pryor among others. \n\nIn 2008\, Morris founded Definitive Style Exclusive (DSE Detroit)\, a brand that uses an array of visual statements and designs created with a simple yet blunt approach to touch on difficult and controversial topics within our society. \n\nIn 2019\, Morris began developing an artistic style that combines collage\, photo montage\, and abstract expressionism. This collage-montage style has led Morris to create a series of figurative works\, that have engaged many within the artistic community.

Unpacking \"Traditional Values\" in Russia’s Conservative Turn: Gender\, Sexuality\, and the Soviet Legacy DESCRIPTION:In the decade before Russia’s most recent invasion of Ukraine\, scholars have been marking a conservative turn in Russian policy and practice through the lens of gender and sexuality. In a recent project\, Valerie Sperling\, Alexandra Novitskaya\, Janet Elise Johnson\, and Lisa Sundstrom examined these dynamics in two decades of Putin’s annual speeches to domestic audiences\, and in Russian public opinion data\, finding differing degrees of sexism and LGBTQ-phobia among Russia’s state leader and the public. While there has been a somewhat conservative trend in what Putin says regarding women’s rights\, there has been a far more conservative one on LGBTQ+ issues. We find that Putin’s speeches and public opinion on these topics echo Soviet approaches\, suggesting that the conservative “turn” amounts more to a “return” than to a novel development under Putin. However\, examining this data also shows that Putin’s shift toward conservatism\, most noticeable starting in 2021—and especially on LGBTQ+ issues—can inform our understanding of his decision to launch a full-scale war against Ukraine.\n \nValerie Sperling is professor of political science at Clark University in Worcester\, Massachusetts. Her research interests lie mainly at the intersection of Russian politics and gender studies. She is the author of *Organizing Women in Contemporary Russia* (2000)\; *Altered States: The Globalization of Accountability* (2009)\; and the award-winning *Sex\, Politics\, and Putin: Political Legitimacy in Russia* (2015). She and Lisa McIntosh Sundstrom (with Melike Sayoglu) are co-authors of *Courting Gender Justice: Russia\, Turkey\, and the European Court of Human Rights* (2019). Her most recent book\, co-authored with her Clark colleague\, Robert Boatright\, is *Trumping Politics as Usual: Masculinity\, Misogyny\, and the 2016 Elections* (2020). In recent years she has published articles in *East European Politics and Societies\, Post-Soviet Affairs\,* and *International Journal of Human Rights*.\n\nThis lecture will be presented in person in 555 Weiser Hall and on Zoom.

This webinar is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Once you've registered\, the joining information will be sent to your email.\n \n Register at: https://myumi.ch/rq4en\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by the University of Michigan Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies and the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures.\n \n Peruvian migrant workers began arriving in South Korea in large numbers in the mid-1990s\, eventually becoming one of the largest groups of non-Asians in the country. Migrant Conversions shows how despite facing unstable income and legal exclusion\, migrants have come to see Korea as an ideal destination\, sometimes even as part of their divine destiny. Faced with a forced end to their residence in Korea\, Peruvians have developed strategies to transform themselves from economic migrants into heads of successful transnational families\, influential church leaders\, and cosmopolitan travelers. Set against the backdrop of the 2008 global financial crisis\, Migrant Conversions explores the intersections of three types of conversions—monetary\, religious\, and cosmopolitan—to argue that migrants use conversions to negotiate the meaning of their lives in a constantly changing transnational context. As Peruvians carve out social spaces\, they create complex and uneven connections between Peru and Korea that challenge a global hierarchy of nations and migrants. Exploring how migrants\, churches\, and nations change through processes of conversion reveals how globalization continues to impact people’s lives and ideas about their futures and pasts long after they have stopped moving or after a particular global moment has come to an end.\n \n Erica Vogel is Professor of Anthropology at Saddleback College in Mission Viejo\, California. She is a cultural anthropologist who conducts fieldwork primarily in South Korea\, Peru\, and Mexico looking at issues of globalization\, migration\, religious conversion\, and transnational flows between Asia and Latin America. Her book Migrant Conversions: Transforming Connections Between Peru and South Korea was published by the UC Press in 2020 and is based on 24 months of fieldwork in Peru and South Korea with migrants and their families\, their religious leaders\, and government officials. Her current research project is funded by a grant from Mellon/ACLS and is called “K-Pop in Mexico: Creating and Consuming Globalization through La Ola Coreana.” She received her PhD in anthropology from the University of California\, Irvine and held a Korea Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship at the University of Illinois Urbana–Champaign.\n \n Links:\n \n 2020 Migrant Conversions: Transforming Connections Between Peru and South Korea.

All integral points in the Schubitope appear as the exponent vector of some term in the associated polynomial. We discuss a polynomial time algorithm\, discovered by Adve\, Robichaux\, and Yong\, for deciding if a given exponent vector is in the Schubitope of a given permutation. The proof relies on a tableau criterion that reduces to a tractable linear programming problem.

Free curves\, those whose restricted tangent bundle has vanishing H^1\, are particularly nice. They are smooth points of the space Hom(B\,X) of morphisms from B to X\, and they lie on a unique component of Hom(B\,X) of the expected dimension. Nonfree curves\, on the other hand\, are more mysterious\, and the components of Hom(B\,X) consisting entirely of nonfree curves are particularly challenging to study. In this talk\, we provide a geometric classification of the ways that a family of curves can be nonfree. In the more general setting of a Fano fibration\, we show that these curves come from a-covers of X\, and we show that the set of such a-covers up to equivalence form a bounded family. This proves the first of Batyrev's heuristics that make up Geometric Manin's Conjecture for Fano fibrations over arbitrary base curves and provides strong evidence for Lehmann\, Sengupta and Tanimoto's proposed characterization of the thin set in Manin's Conjecture. This is joint work with Brian Lehmann and Sho Tanimoto.

Maybe that’s why I was bound and determined to get these particular songs on this album. If people like them\, then we’ll be fine. But I wasn’t gonna do it any other way.” For the past 20 years\, Chris Knight has only made music his own way. He’s released eight acclaimed albums\, played thousands of electrifying live shows and built generations of fervent fans from Texas honky-tonks to Manhattan rock clubs. He’s been hailed as “the last of a dying breed...a taciturn loner with an acoustic guitar and a college degree” (The New York Times) and “a storyteller in the best traditions of Mellencamp and Springsteen” (USA Today). Bottom line\, he’s hard-earned his reputation as one of America’s most uncompromising and respected singer/songwriters. And now with “Almost Daylight\,” Knight delivers the most powerful – and unexpected – music of his career.
