SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Act: A Documentary Film In-process
DESCRIPTION:With the “Hear\, Here” series\, we aim to facilitate conversations around new research in the humanities. Faculty fellows at the Institute for the Humanities will discuss a part of their current project in a short talk followed by a Q & A session.\n\nAbout this talk: My older brother David was found dead in his car in San Francisco in late July 2021. Unsure how to grieve for someone who I mostly knew as an abusive\, sexist\, homophobic\, drug addict and alcoholic\, I turned to old family photos to make sense of things. Among a cache of photos in which he is either conspicuously absent or appears moody\, dissociated\, or stoned\, I stumble upon two unexpected photos of David circa 1984. He is fourteen years old\, holding baby me on his hip\, and gleefully grinning ear to ear. He is donning a brunette wig and wearing a short\, sleeveless baby blue dress. Wherein the other photos in this family archive show a brooding teen marinating in a stupor of anger\, drugs\, and alcohol\, in these photos David is energetic\, lighthearted\, and radiating joy. It was not until after his death that I understood my brother’s life for what it was: an act. The toxically masculine persona I knew of him functioned as a defensive performance of heterosexuality and whiteness\, an elaborate act to distract from his queerness and his Arabness. *The Act *is a documentary film which takes David’s life and death as a plot device through which to examine the effects of anti-Arab racism\, sexism\, and homophobia on Arab Americans (queer and otherwise). \n\nUmayyah Cable is a 2024-25 Richard & Lillian Ives Faculty Fellow at the Institute for the Humanities and Assistant Professor of American Culture and Film\, Television\, & Media.
