SUMMARY:Exhibition:Portraits of Feminism in Japan
DESCRIPTION:What is feminism in Japan? 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. Gawaran\, Takatoshi Hayashi\, ivokuma (いぼくま)\, Nami Kaneko (金子奈美)\, Kang Jungsook\, Lisa Taka Miyagi\, Nancy Nishihira (西平・ナンシー)\, and Shigeki Shibata (柴田滋紀)\n\nCuration team: \nAllison Alexy\,  Bradly Hammond\, Grace Mahoney\, and Alexandria Molinari

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Humanize the Numbers
DESCRIPTION:Prison Creative Arts Project presents an exhibition of collaborative photography at the Detroit Historical Museum (5401 Woodward Ave. in Detroit)\, open now through May 21st.\n\nA public reception will be held on March 9th\, 6:00–9:00 PM\, with a panel of previous workshop participants at 7:00 PM.\n\nWe hope you will be able to see the exhibit\, and please be in touch if you have any questions.\n\nHumanize the Numbers shows the perspectives of men in Michigan prisons. The prison system regulates every part of an inmate's identity. Instead of using their name\, they are given an ID number. Visiting room photos and mug shots are tightly regulated. Personal info is recorded: height\, weight\, etc. In the process\, their humanity is denied.\n\nThis exhibit at the Detroit Historical Museum reveals the faces and stories of those in prison. It lifts up the voices of those who have been silenced by the criminal legal system. The Humanize the Numbers project gives them a freedom not normally allowed in prison. They share their stories with the world outside. By doing so\, those in prison reclaim their humanity.\n\nMuseum hours\nThursdays–Saturdays: 10:00 AM–5:00PM \nSundays: 1:00–5:00 PM

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Openings: Title Pages in the History of Printed Books
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit explores the creativity and utility of an essential part of practically every modern book\, the title page. Such pages signal and inform\, incite pleasure and intrigue\, as well as conceal and mislead. The works shown here from the holdings of the University of Michigan Library illuminate critical moments in the history of books. Students in a Fall 2022 History Lab class researched and created the exhibit.\n\nThe exhibit is available for viewing in the Special Collections Research Center (on the sixth floor of the Hatcher Library)\, Monday-Friday\, 10am-4:30pm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:UN/EARTH
DESCRIPTION:Featuring work by Gina Gibson\, UN/EARTH explores science and art from a mile underground. Located in the former Homestake gold mine in Lead\, South Dakota\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) houses experiments that give us a better understanding of the universe. The location—deep underground—provides a near-perfect environment for experiments that need to escape the constant bombardment of cosmic radiation\, which can interfere with the detection of rare physics events. Built in collaboration with the University of Michigan\, the LUX-Zeplin is the world’s most sensitive dark matter experiment. SURF also hosts experiments in biology\, geology and engineering.\n\nGina Gibson is an internationally exhibiting artist and professor of Graphic Design at Black Hills State University. In 2019\, Gibson became the first artist in residence at the Sanford Underground Research Facility. Gibson's work celebrates the search deep below the surface for beauty in the old and new\, the light and dark\, and the known and unknown.\n\nUN/EARTH was developed in collaboration with the U-M Department of Physics\, the Sanford Underground Research Facility and Black Hills State University.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Using the Arts to Flip Understanding
DESCRIPTION:Using the Arts to Flip Understanding Facilitated by Margot Greenlee\nWhen you’re on a mental “hamster wheel\,” running faster doesn’t help. Slowing down\, stepping to the side\, and seeing from another perspective does.\n\n\nIn our time as graduate students and postdocs\, we may find ourselves feeling burnt out on the very work that got us excited about this journey in the first place\, or feeling stuck in our thinking about where it’s all going. To get out of this rut\, we need to try new perspectives and approaches. In this workshop\, we use arts-based activities to open up new neural pathways. We refresh our thinking and jumpstart inspiration with visual art\, poetic language\, and movement. This workshop re-ignites a range of intelligences and skills inherent in us all – no formal arts training required.\nWhat to expect:\nfun\, immersive\, artistic exploration \nguided critical reflection\none-on-one discussion with peers\n2 hours that fly by\nWhat you’ll get:\ndedicated time and structure for exploring an area or question that’s important to you\nrefreshed perspective on that area or question \nSnacks and beverages will be provided!\nThis workshop is co-hosted by the OGPS Health and Wellness team in collaboration with the facilitator and a2ru.This project was made possible by a grant from the Arts Initiative at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Blue Bag Lunch Talk with Prof. JJ Prescott
DESCRIPTION:The FTC wants to ban noncompetition agreements in employment contracts due to their negative effects on employee mobility\, even when unenforceable. Prof. JJ Prescott will discuss three of his recent papers supporting this rulemaking\, including the use and impact of noncompetes on employees\, the role of noncompetes in employee mobility\, and the subjective beliefs about noncompete enforceability. This research shows that contracts matter regardless of enforceability\, making traditional reform ideas ineffective.

SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CJS Thursday Lecture Series | Yaoi/BL Novels as Feminism in Contemporary Japan
DESCRIPTION:If you wish to attend this event via Zoom\, please register at http://myumi.ch/gN44J\n\nYaoi / Boys’ Love (BL) is a literary genre of male-male erotic romance\, originally invented by and for heterosexual Japanese women around the end of the 1970s\, which has now become popular globally. This talk analyzes methodologies employed in Japanese Yaoi/BL novels and explores their potential as post-binary feminism.\n   \n   Kazuko Suzuki is an Associate Professor of Sociology at Texas A&M University and the author of the award-winning book\, *Divided Fates: The State\, Race\, and Korean Immigrants’ Adaptation in Japan and the United States*\, which compares adaptation patterns of three Korean diasporic groups in Japan and the United States. She also co-edited a book\, *Reconsidering Race: Social Science Perspectives on Racial Categories in the Age of Genomics*. Her research interests include modes of incorporation and immigrant adaptation from an international comparative perspective\; historical and regional analysis of “race” beyond the Western paradigm\, as well as global diffusion of “race” and racisms\; and gender and sexuality in Japanese popular culture media\, in particular Yaoi/BL. She is currently on the Advisory Board of the “Studies in Comparative Political Theory” Series of Oxford University Press.\n   \n   This lecture is made possible with the generous support of the U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant.\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.
