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.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Perceptual Robot Learning
DESCRIPTION:Robots today are typically confined to interact with rigid\, opaque objects with known object models. However\, the objects in our daily lives are often non-rigid\, can be transparent or reflective\, and are diverse in shape and appearance. One reason for the limitations of current methods is that computer vision and robot planning are often considered separate fields. I argue that\, to enhance the capabilities of robots\, we should design state representations that consider both the perception and planning algorithms needed for the robotics task. I will show how we can develop novel perception and planning algorithms to assist with the tasks of manipulating cloth\, manipulating novel objects\, and grasping transparent and reflective objects. By thinking about the downstream task while jointly developing perception and planning algorithms\, we can significantly improve our progress on difficult robots tasks.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:It's All About Life and Dignity
DESCRIPTION:Sister Helen Prejean is known around the world for her tireless work against the death penalty. She has been instrumental in sparking national dialogue on capital punishment and in shaping the Catholic Church’s vigorous opposition to all executions.\n\nBorn in Baton Rouge\, Louisiana\, in the 1930s\, Sister Helen grew up in the segregated Jim Crow South. At the age of 18 she joined the Sisters of St. Joseph. She worked as a high school teacher and religious education director in New Orleans before moving into the St. Thomas Housing Project in the early ’80s.\n\nIn 1982\, Sister Helen began corresponding with Patrick Sonnier\, who had been sentenced to death for the murder of two teenagers. Two years later\, when Patrick Sonnier was put to death in the electric chair\, Sister Helen was there to witness his execution. In the following months\, she became spiritual advisor to another death row inmate\, Robert Lee Willie\, who was to meet the same fate as Sonnier.\n\nAfter witnessing these executions\, Sister Helen realized that this lethal ritual would remain unchallenged unless its secrecy was stripped away\, and so she sat down and wrote a book\, Dead Man Walking: An Eyewitness Account of the Death Penalty in the United States. That book ignited a national debate on capital punishment and spawned an Academy Award winning movie\, a play\, and an opera.\n\nSister Helen’s second book\, The Death of Innocents: An Eyewitness Account of Wrongful Executions\, was published in 2004\; and her third book\, River of Fire: My Spiritual Journey\, in August\, 2019. She is currently collaborating on a graphic retelling of Dead Man Walking\, to be published by Random House.
