SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Hurt\, Baby\, Hurt — Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the reissue of the book \"Hurt\, Baby\, Hurt\" — a memoir about the 1967 Detroit Rebellion by William Walter Scott\, III. First published in 1970\, the book recounts Scott's life from his birth through the rebellion. Guest speakers include Austin McCoy\, West Virginia University\, who wrote the insightful introduction for the new edition of the book\, and Bill McGraw\, journalist and author.\n\nThe rebellion was the bloodiest of the urban riots in the U.S. during the summer of 1967. It began when police raided an unlicensed drinking club owned by Scott’s father and continued for five days\, resulting in forty-three deaths plus many more injuries\, fires\, and arrests. Scott\, who was 19 at the time and working as a doorman at his father’s club\, is widely recognized as the man who started the rebellion by throwing a bottle at one of the police officers.\n\nThe reissue will be available for purchase in paperback and as an Open Access ebook in April\, 2025. This project was made possible by support from two library divisions: University of Michigan Press (https://myumi.ch/pkn2y) and Special Collections Research Center (Joseph A. Labadie Collection).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Research Talk: Indigenous communities  and algorithmic systems
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Traveling Theories Rackham Interdisciplinary Workshop\nTitle: Indigenous communities  and algorithmic systemsSpeaker: Dipto Das\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, Department of Computer Science & Faculty of Information\, University of Toronto.Dipto Das is a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Computer Science and the Faculty of Information at the University of Toronto. Their research in Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) explores how sociotechnical systems facilitate sociopolitical discourse among diverse communities and how these platforms can be designed and governed to promote greater equity and fairness while accommodating differing and often conflicting norms and values. Their work examines how fairness in the downstream applications of algorithmic systems\, particularly in the governance of online platforms within culturally diverse communities\, is conceptualized and negotiated. Drawing from his research\, Das will discuss the experiences of local and Indigenous communities with algorithmic systems in this talk.Date: April 10th\, 2025TIme: 2: 30 pm - 4 :00 pmVenue: HybridNorth Quad 5450\, University of Michigan.Zoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/94307093919\n
