But how should we understand the ways the past shaped and produced this present? And how can, or should we, write and map the histories of people rooted in oral cultures? This presentation explores the premise that reading Lagos\u2019s streets shapes the ways to ask, analyze and frame nineteenth-century narratives of the city. By drawing new maps of Lagos and the lagoon, I transcribe the answers to these questions as they were understood and framed in the city\u2019s social geography.\n\nTrained as both historian and computer engineer, Ademide\u2019s research into the history of West African cities combines a set of interdisciplinary interests in maps, mapmaking, and digital humanities. Her first book,\u00a0Imagine Lagos, explores the city\u2019s 19th-century history. It was awarded the Best Book Prize in 2024 by the African Studies Association and is a finalist for the Association for the Study of the Worldwide African Diaspora\u2019s Outstanding First Book award.

To take one example, British maps of 19th century Lagos Island produced by various imperial agents in the overlapping contexts of colonial expansion, enslavement, and war reflect a colonial agenda positing the urban center as blank space. In order to write a history of 19th century Lagos which centers its Indigenous and African inhabitants and their everyday experiences, Ademide Adelusi-Adeluyi supplements such maps with an embodied \u201cwalking cartography\u201d and oral histories of the colonized, creating rich \u201cspeculative maps\u201d of the city. Adelusi-Adeluyi\u2019s scholarship grapples with central spatial-historical questions such as: What arguments do, or might, maps make? What revelations do illustrated, oral, spatial, and other kinds of sources provide which the written record does not? How might speculative research methods fill gaps left by power asymmetries exposed in the archival record? What are possible ways to read indigenous history, movements, and knowledge in the physical environment? This panel is inspired by the possibilities that arise from such a \u201csocial and spatial reading\u201d of \u201can incomplete and sometimes fragmentary archive,\u201d in the particular context of pre-colonial or colonial urban history broadly conceived, including examples of \u201cinternal colonization\u201d. \n\nThe Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies welcomes paper submissions from graduate students working on urban history, architecture, mapping or spatial studies, digital humanities, and\/or embodied methodologies. We especially encourage scholarship which centers the perspectives of non-dominant historical actors in creative and critical ways.\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

The real problem, Nwanevu contends, lies in institutions that were never designed to let majorities govern, and in an economy that keeps power far from ordinary people.\n\nAnderson, one of the country's most influential political philosophers, brings her own work on democracy, equality, and the workplace to the exchange. Together they take up the questions this election season keeps surfacing. Who really holds power in America?

With roots in the eighteenth century, the Kleinfamilie provided a social and economic foundation for the rise of the modern nation state. However, the heterogeneous and multidimensional ways individuals and communities connect with one another today require a broader focus. A more fluid and encompassing term, \u201ckinship,\u201d offers a way of seeing and describing those ties that extend beyond the nuclear family and are by nature shifting and\ntemporary.\n\nUsing kinship as a framework, Heidi Schlipphacke\u2019s book The Aesthetics of Kinship: Form and Family in the Long Eighteenth Century (Bucknell University Press, 2023) reexamines 18th-century German novels and dramas to uncover alternative affinities that are hidden when exclusively considered through the walled-off Kleinfamilie. Sclipphacke\u2019s investigation belongs to a larger body of recent scholarly work seeking to reconceive of repurpose the term \u201ckinship.\u201d For example, Jennifer Evans\u2019s The Queer Art of History: Queer Kinship after Fascism (Duke University Press, 2023) deploys kinship as an analytic category to demonstrate how queer and trans people in postwar and contemporary Germany navigated citizenship, love, and public and family life.

With roots in the eighteenth century, the Kleinfamilie provided a social and economic foundation for the rise of the modern nation state. However, the heterogeneous and multidimensional ways individuals and communities connect with one another today require a broader focus. A more fluid and encompassing term, \u201ckinship,\u201d offers a way of seeing and describing those ties that extend beyond the nuclear family and are by nature shifting and\ntemporary.\n\nUsing kinship as a framework, Heidi Schlipphacke\u2019s book The Aesthetics of Kinship: Form and Family in the Long Eighteenth Century (Bucknell University Press, 2023) reexamines 18th-century German novels and dramas to uncover alternative affinities that are hidden when exclusively considered through the walled-off Kleinfamilie. Sclipphacke\u2019s investigation belongs to a larger body of recent scholarly work seeking to reconceive of repurpose the term \u201ckinship.\u201d For example, Jennifer Evans\u2019s The Queer Art of History: Queer Kinship after Fascism (Duke University Press, 2023) deploys kinship as an analytic category to demonstrate how queer and trans people in postwar and contemporary Germany navigated citizenship, love, and public and family life.

In this context, childhood, and girlhood in particular, has emerged as a matter of political, moral, and ideological contestation. Situating these contemporary struggles within a broader historical perspective, however, reveals that gendered childhood, as a concept and social project, has long served as a site onto which collective fears, social aspirations, and competing visions of citizenship and belonging are projected. Indeed, Marcia Chatelain's work has shown that, during the Great Migration, Black girlhood in Chicago\u2019s South Side represented a potential path to social mobility, even as it was undermined by indiscriminate lynchings, labor demands in an expanding commercial market, a punitive judicial system, and sexual victimization. This scholarship raises important historical and methodological questions, such as: Who is afforded the innocence and vulnerability of childhood? In what ways have race, gender, and class together impacted public discourses regarding what it means to be a \u201cgood citizen\u201d? How have crises around racialized, gendered, and classed identity inspired unexpected historical affinities and collaborations? How might historians navigate (and overcome) gaps and silences in the traditional archive, which have effectively erased the perspectives of racialized and working-class children?\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.

Science in the service of history.\n\nFeaturing:\nJon Arnold (University of Tulsa)\nHenrik Dey (Hunter College)\nHussein Fancy (Yale University)\nBenjamin Graham (University of Memphis)\nRichard Hoffman (York University)\nAlyssa Kotva (The Ohio State University)\nJamie Kreiner (University of California, Los Angeles)\nStephanie Leitzel (Cornell University)", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"150198-21908385@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/150198", "building_id":"1000152", "building_name":"Tisch Hall", "campus_maps_id":"541", "room":"1014", "location_name":"Tisch Hall", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["Anthropology","Environment","European","Graduate","Graduate Students","History","Humanities","Literature","Social Sciences"], "website":"", "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"Department of History", "group_id":"3470", "website":"" } ], "image_url":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "styled_images":{ "event_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_large_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "group_thumb_square":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_thumb_square\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "group_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "group_large_lightbox":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/group_large_lightbox\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_large_crop":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_large_crop\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_list":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_list\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_list_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_list_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_grid":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_grid\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_grid_2x":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_grid_2x\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_large":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/resolve\/event_feature_large\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg", "event_feature_thumb":"https:\/\/events.umich.edu\/media\/cache\/event_feature_thumb\/media\/attachments\/2026\/08\/event_150198_original-1.jpg" }, "occurrence_count":2, "first_occurrence":21908384 } , "150724-21910005": { "datetime_modified":"20260821T134056", "datetime_start":"20261210T160000", "datetime_end":"20261210T173000", "has_end_time":1, "date_start":"2026-12-10", "date_end":"2026-12-10", "time_start":"16:00:00", "time_end":"17:30:00", "time_zone":"America\/Detroit", "event_title":"EIHS Lecture: Race and Reckoning in the United States and Germany: Lessons from a Comparative Approach", "occurrence_title":"", "combined_title":"EIHS Lecture: Race and Reckoning in the United States and Germany: Lessons from a Comparative Approach: Rita Chin (University of Michigan)", "event_subtitle":"Rita Chin (University of Michigan)", "event_type":"Lecture \/ Discussion", "event_type_id":"13", "description":"German atonement for the Holocaust is widely hailed as a paragon of national reckoning, and African American intellectuals such as Ta-Nehisi Coates have invoked Germany as a useful model in their calls for Americans to confront the legacy of slavery. In tracing the complex process by which Germans have dealt with the Nazi past, Chin considers how the German case is instructive for Americans seeking to pursue redress, as well as how Germany\u2019s vaunted memory culture has become fossilized such that it has recently become a stumbling block for a German society struggling with contemporary challenges.\n\nRita Chin is Louise A.

Two features of this social world\u2014interracial sexual relationships between African women and European men and the concomitant growth of an Afro-European population that remained embedded in African society\u2014were key drivers of the process of racialization unleashed by the transatlantic slave trade. This process would evolve over the course of four centuries in ways that gave Afro-European men the social positionality, financial resources, and political impetus to be the first founders of African-owned newspapers in colonial Ghana. Their newspapers reveal a late-nineteenth-century West African epistemology of blackness that stretched beyond its elite (primarily) Afro-European origins as literacy rates grew, newspaper publishing expanded, and the language of race became a politically consequential medium in the twentieth century that enabled dissent and shaped how Africans in the colony\u2019s growing public sphere debated and fought for political futures defined not by their colonizers, but by themselves.\n\nCarina Ray is a scholar of race and sexuality; comparative colonialisms and nationalisms; migration and maritime history; print cultures; bodily aesthetics, and the relationship between race, ethnicity, and political power. Ray\u2019s research is primarily focused on Ghana and its diasporas. She is the author of Crossing the Color Line: Race, Sex, and the Contested Politics of Colonialism in Ghana, winner of the American Historical Association's 2016 Wesley-Logan Book Prize and the African Studies Association's 2017 Aidoo-Snyder Book Prize. Her articles have appeared in Gender and History, PMLA, The Journal of West African History, and The American Historical Review, among others. She is series co-editor of New African Histories (Ohio University Press) with Jacob Dlamini and Derek Peterson, and African Identities: Past and Present (Cambridge University Press) with Toyin Falola. Ray previously served as series editor of Ohio Short Histories of Africa (Ohio University Press) with Dan Magaziner, Michelle Moyd, and Moses Ochunu; as editor of Ghana Studies; and as a member of the Board of Editors for The American Historical Review.\n\nThis event presented by the Eisenberg Institute for Historical Studies.
