SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:CJS Thursday Lecture Series | Uncertain Powers: Sen’yōmon-in and Landownership by Royal Women in Early Medieval Japan
DESCRIPTION:Please note that as this Zoom lecture is originating from Japan\, the start time will be 7pm\, Ann Arbor time.\n\nPlease note: Due to updated guidance from the university in regards to the COVID policy\, this lecture will be only in a webinar format. Please register here to attend: https://myumi.ch/V7MZn\n\nDr. Sachiko Kawai discusses her recently published book\, Uncertain Powers\, which explores the power of Japanese royal women who held many landed estates during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Despite their enormous landholdings\, these women faced challenges to actually get resources from their estates. While pointing out gender disparity at court society\, she explains female landlords’ coping strategies and the complex interplay of authority and power.\n   \n   After receiving a PhD in history from the University of Southern California\, Dr. Kawai taught as a College Fellow at Harvard and later served as a postdoctoral scholar at the Reischauer Institute of Japanese Studies. She is currently an assistant professor at the National Institutes for the Humanities/ National Museum of Japanese History.\n\nThis colloquium series is made possible by the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\n\nThis event is cosponsored by Medieval and Early Modern Studies.\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The McCarthy Era Red Scare in Michigan: Its Meaning\, Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:In 1952\, David Maraniss’s father\, a U-M alumnus\, was called before the House Un-American Activities Committee. David wrote about his family’s experiences in his book – many of which centered around U-M – in his book\, A Good American Family: The Red Scare and My Father\, and will discuss how this period of heightened ideological tension still reverberates today\, especially given our own era of increasing political engagement and polarization.\n\nHosted by Gary Krenz.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:THE MCCARTHY-ERA RED SCARE IN MICHIGAN: Its Meaning\, Then and Now
DESCRIPTION:David Maraniss\, journalist and Associate Editor at the Washington Post\, is the author of twelve books\, among them: Once in a Great City: A Detroit Story\; They Marched into Sunlight: War and Peace\, Vietnam and America\, October\, 1967\; as well as biographies of Bill Clinton\, Barack Obama\, and Roberto Clemente. His most recent book\, A Good American Family: The Red Scare and My Father\, should be of particular interest to the University and to the Ann Arbor Community at large. Both Maraniss's parents\, Elliot and Mary\, were student activists at the University of Michigan in the late 1930s. His uncle\, Robert Cummins\, was one of three students who volunteered in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and fought in the Spanish Civil War in defense of the Republic. In his book Maraniss offers an account of his parents' anti-fascist activism at the University\, his father's work as a reporter and editor at the Michigan Daily (alongside Arthur Miller)\, and the persecution his parents suffered during the McCarthy era. In 1952 his father was called to testify before the House Committee on Un-American Activities. After refusing to name names\, Elliot Maraniss was fired from his job at the Detroit Times and endured five years of being blacklisted from the newspaper business. Maraniss's presentation will bring to light a largely forgotten chapter in the history of the University and the Detroit area. His family's experiences in a period of heightened ideological tensions should resonate with a broad audience and prompt a serious discussion\, given our own era of increasing political polarization.

SUMMARY:Performance:Hannah O'Brien & Grant Flick
DESCRIPTION:Hannah O’Brien and Grant Flick play a mix of original compositions and traditional pieces from various fiddling traditions. The duo began collaborating at University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre\, & Dance in 2019. They found common ground despite coming from different backgrounds with Hannah from Irish fiddling and Grant from American improvisational idioms.\n\nIn August 2021 they released their first duo record\, “Windward.” This album features a collection of their original tunes but also some of their takes on fiddling standards. Their arrangements have been worked up without notation and sometimes incorporate improvised sections. While the duo feels at home on double fiddle\, they also change instrumentation often incorporating tenor guitar and nyckelharpa. Their musical interests are broad and as a result their programs showcase an eclectic assemblage of repertoire.\n---\nProof of COVID vaccination required for entry. By purchasing a ticket you agree that you and your guests will comply with all laws\, orders\, ordinances\, regulations and health and safety guidance adopted by the State of Michigan\, the County of Washtenaw and The Ark\, including any guidelines in place at the time of the show.

SUMMARY:Performance:The Broadwood Piano in Beethoven's Solo and Collaborative Works
DESCRIPTION:Angie Zhang\, piano\nHelen LaGrand\, cello\n\nPROGRAM\nLudwig van Beethoven\n\nSonata for Piano and Cello in A Major\, Op. 69\n32 Variations on an Original Theme in C Minor\, WoO 80\nSonata for Piano and Cello in C Major\, Op. 102\, No. 1\n\nfeaturing the Stearns Collection's 1808 Broadwood Piano\nrecently donated by the estate of Charles Wilson\nand an anonymous 18th century French cello\n\n\nIn 1817\, the great English piano builder John Broadwood met the famous pianist and composer Ludwig van Beethoven in Vienna. After returning home to London\, Broadwood consulted with many of England's finest pianists to choose the best of his newest Broadwood pianos\, which he sent to Beethoven as a gift. Inscribed above the nameboard on the piano are the words: \"Hoc instrumentum est Thomas Broadwood londini donum propter ingenium illustrissimi Beethoven.\" [This instrument from Thomas Broadwood of London is a true gift to the illustrious Beethoven.]\n\nUpon hearing that the piano was being sent to him\, Beethoven wrote to Broadwood: \"My dearest friend Broadwood\, I have never felt a greater pleasure than that given me by the anticipation of the arrival of this piano\, with which you are honouring me as a present. I shall regard it as an altar on which I shall place my spirit’s most beautiful offerings to the divine Apollo. As soon as I receive your excellent instrument\, I shall send you the fruits of the first moments of inspiration I spend at it\, as a souvenir for you from me\, my very dear B.\, and I hope that they will be worthy of your instrument. My dear sir and friend\, accept my warmest consideration\, from your friend and most humble servant\, Louis Van Beethoven. Vienna\, 3rd February 1818.”\n\nThe piano featured in tonight's performance was built approximately ten years before Beethoven's Broadwood. It has a smaller compass of notes and less string tension\, but retains many acoustical similarities to the piano Beethoven received and played.\n\nattend in person or watch livestream at https://myui.ch/McIntoshTheatre

SUMMARY:Film Screening:Black Islam in the Americas Series. *Two Gods* Free Screening
DESCRIPTION:This film screening is part of our “Black Islam in the Americas” Series\, presented by the Global Islamic Studies Center (GISC) at the University of Michigan! 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.
