SUMMARY:Exhibition:Vital Signs for a New America
DESCRIPTION:On view from September 8-October 14\, 2017 in the Stamps Gallery (201 S. Division St.\, Ann Arbor)\, Vital Signs for a New America is a group exhibition including work by Dylan Miner\, Sheryl Oring\, and the performance collective The Hinterlands. There will be an exhibition reception on Friday\, September 8 from 6-8 pm. The exhibition and reception are free and open to the public.\n\nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra\, Vital Signs for a New America uses a range of meaningful and compelling of community-engaged approaches to invite the public to join Miner\, Oring\, and The Hinterlands in speaking out and sharing stories\; listening and re-learning\; and remembering the past to imagine new possibilities for the future.\n\nActive public engagement is at the heart of Vital Signs for a New America. Each work on view in this group exhibition offers opportunities to interact directly with the artists and their art. As part of the exhibition programming\, the gallery will become a common space for storytelling and tea drinking with Dylan Miner\; a bustling executive assistant’s office with Sheryl Oring\; and a tactile\, expansive personal archive with the performance collective The Hinterlands. Vital Signs invites the public to speak out\, listen\, and imagine new models for inclusive futures.\n\nDylan Miner: Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore\nSaturdays\, September 9-October 14\, 1-3 pm\n\nDylan Miner\, Director of American Indian and Indigenous Studies at Michigan State University\, is an artist\, activist\, and scholar. Miner identifies as a Wiisaakodewinini (Métis)\, the Ojibwe designation for a Native male of mixed ancestry. While conducting an oral history project with retired Anishinaabe autoworkers\, elders shared the idea that “we don’t visit as much as we used to” due to the limitations of urbanizations\, wage labor\, and settler colonialism to name a few. In response\, Miner was inspired to explore the methodology of visiting with an art gallery or museum context. Elders Say We Don’t Visit Anymore is a creative action where the public is invited to share tea and conversation with the artist\, creating new friendships and maintaining social relationships within a specific time and place.\n\nSheryl Oring: I Wish to Say \nFriday\, September 8\, 5-6.30 pm and 7-8 pm (two engagements)\nFridays\, September 15-October 13\, 5-7 pm\n\nNationally renowned artist Sheryl Oring’s belief in the value of free expression guaranteed by the American constitution propelled her to initiate I Wish to Say (2004-ongoing)\, a public platform that invites people to voice their concerns about the state-of-affairs in the country to the President of America. For this project\, Oring sets up a portable public office — complete with a manual typewriter — and invites viewers to dictate postcards to the President of the United States\, prompting with a simple phrase: “Do you have a message for the president?” Over the last decade\, Oring has toured this project across the country and more than 3\,000 postcards have been mailed to the White House. Taking place for the first time in Michigan\, Oring will be working with students and volunteers at the Stamps Gallery and in the city of Ann Arbor to spark dialogues not just among artists and academics but also among the diverse public of Ann Arbor on their notes to the President.\n\nThe Hinterlands: The Radicalization Process Papers \nTuesday\, October 3\, 6-7.30pm: History is a Living Weapon (performance)\n\nThe Hinterlands delve into the past to remember and re-learn the cultural memories and collective histories of Detroit and Ann Arbor. A collection of boxes is discovered in the basement of a house on the border of Detroit and Hamtramck. In them\, a rich personal archive of publication clippings\, which appear to chronicle radical U.S. histories of the 60s and 70s. Using the archive as a performative platform\, the artists invite audiences to engage with the materials contained in the boxes that blur the boundaries between fact and fiction\, real and imagined. The ephemera and memorabilia in the The Radicalization Process Papers takes audiences on a journey that navigates layers of historical accounts\, art\, politics\, and cultural artifacts and asks audiences to examine the assumptions of freedom and democracy in popular American culture. Created and compiled by The Hinterlands in collaboration with historian and poet Casey Rocheteau and designer Ben Gaydos.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:LACS Lecture. Who owns mosquitoes? Decolonizing public health in the Caribbean
DESCRIPTION:Since the outbreak of Zika virus began in 2014\, many efforts have been carried out to control\, reduce\, and/or attempt to eliminate mosquito populations in the Caribbean. These efforts have been stymied largely by the fact that Aedes Aegypti\, which is the mosquito that also transmits the Dengue and Chinkungunya viruses\, is endemic to all of Central America and the Caribbean. Zika has also revived many of the early debates and problems faced by scientists and health care providers during the early days of the HIV epidemic due to the initially largely unknown dynamics of Zika syndrome and the discovery that it can be transmitted sexually. This rare combination of sexual transmission and transmission by mosquito has produced new articulations of social and medical power that build on the long history of epidemics in the Caribbean\, as well as the manifold imperial projects devised to control contagious disease in the tropics. How can we account for both human and non-human action in these novel articulations of health and empire? Who has the right to intervene in mosquito and human populations and on what basis should they do so? This talk will address these questions by inquiring into the process through which Zika virus became endemic to the region\, and how state\, community\, and global forms of power organized themselves in response to the viral threat posed by these mosquitoes.\n\nCosponsors: Department of Epidemiology at the School of Public Health\, Department of American Culture\, and Latina/o Studies Program

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:\"How Did Hagar Become Black?\"
DESCRIPTION:Hagar is known as the wife of Abraham and the mother of Ishmael within Judaism\, Christianity\, and Islam. While many biblical characters are depicted as Europeans within Western art\, literature\, and biblical interpretation\, some interpreters have reimagined Hagar as a Black woman. In this lecture\, Dr. Junior will discuss how and why Hagar has been appropriated as Black within some communities. This is a preview of her current book-length project Reimagining Hagar: Blackness and the Bible (forthcoming with Oxford University Press). Join us and follow the conversation at #ReHagar.\n\nDr. Nyasha Junior is an Assistant Professor of Hebrew Bible in the Department of Religion at Temple University in Philadelphia.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Donia Human Rights Center Lecture. Incitement on Trial: Prosecuting International Speech Crimes
DESCRIPTION:International and national armed conflicts are usually preceded by a media campaign in which public figures foment ethnic\, national\, racial or religious hatred\, and incite listeners to acts of violence. My research evaluates the efforts of international criminal tribunals to hold inciters criminally responsible. This is an unsettled area of international criminal law and prosecutors have often struggled to demonstrate a causal connection between speech acts and subsequent crimes. I argue that inciting speech should be handled under the preventative doctrine of inchoate crimes\, but once international crimes have been committed\, then ordering and complicity are the most appropriate forms of criminal liability. Based on extensive original research\, the book identifies “revenge speech” as the type of rhetoric with greatest effects on empathy and tolerance for violence and it proposes an evidence-based risk assessment model for monitoring political speech.\n \nRichard Ashby Wilson is the Gladstein Distinguished Chair of Human Rights and Professor of Anthropology and Law at the University of Connecticut. Wilson is the author or editor of eleven books on anthropology\, international human rights\, truth and reconciliation commissions and international criminal tribunals. His latest book\, Incitement On Trial: Prosecuting International Speech Crimes (Cambridge University Press\, 2017)\, evaluates international prosecutions of political leaders and media figures who incite others to ethnic and racial violence and genocide. He has consulted for international policy agencies and served as Chair of the Connecticut State Advisory Committee of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights from 2009-2013.
