SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CSAS Lecture Series | Seeing is Knowing\, or is it?: Caste\, Protein\, and Realism
DESCRIPTION:This talk explores the role of caste in perceptions of reality in British India. It brings together three different modes of representing reality: social\, scientific\, and literary. Colonial ethnography attempted to understand caste as a distinct form of Indian civil society and painstakingly theorized caste-as-race. Colonial nutrition\, drawing on ethnographic understandings of caste\, hierarchized the very innards of Indians by mapping the racial basis of caste along the lines of contemporary dietary debates about protein. All the while\, colonial novelists used ethnographic and dietary understandings of caste to envision their version of a realistic world in a fictional form. The incipient form of the realist novel in India thus deployed caste as the perfect marriage of exteriority and interiority to represent a legible Indian reality in a newly imported form. In connecting these seemingly disparate modes of reality perception\, Sapui argues that in late nineteenth and early twentieth century India\, caste epistemologies\, understood as observable physical differences and knowable communal characteristics\, were key to understanding what is construed as Indian reality. In this regard\, seeing to know—the cornerstone of all empirical knowledge—as this talk will show\, assumes political\, pedagogical\, and insidiously persistent charge.\n\nMeghna Sapui is a postdoctoral fellow at the Michigan Society of Fellows and an assistant professor of English language and literature at the University of Michigan. Her work has appeared in *ELH\, Victorian Literature and Culture\, Victorian Review*\, and *Global Food History*. She is working on her book\, *Edible Empire: Tasting & Writing India*\, which looks at gastro narratives in the literature of British India.\n\n*Made possible with the generous support of the Title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education.*\n\nFree and open to the public

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:NERS Colloquium: Psychological Safety to Innovation
DESCRIPTION:Psychological Safety to Innovation\; The Intersectionality of Healthy to Innovative Spaces and a “People-Centered” Focus to Drive Outcomes and Discovery in an Emerging Plasma Science\, Fusion\, and Fusion-Adjacent Energy Workforce\n\nAbstract:\nSystemic obstacles to STEM climates\, e.g.\, gatekeeping\, othering\, grant and award criteria\, Principal Investigator/Research Group accountability\, and closed-source data management\, are prime leverage points to reimagine and implement equitable restorative measures in current and burgeoning workspaces. Psychological safety and moral courage bring experts together with the community\, including members of marginalized groups\, to create a healthy foundation. A community feedback system facilitates the identification of workplace climate issues so they are promptly and effectively addressed. Cultural Competence leverages the established safety and courage base to chart a path to an inclusive culture and harness the power of diverse perspectives. Under this framework\, sponsored events can address many forms of oppression and empower thriving workspaces. Collaborating technical and cultural subject matter experts in supported community-based workshops and trainings\, provide a scaffolding for continued growth in individual spaces. Accurate use of the “Healthy to Innovative Framework” in learning and work spaces can transform climates and cultures to maximize innovation in a “People-Centered” focus that drives outcomes and discovery for an emerging fusion and fusion-adjacent energy workforce. \n\nCAPT Royce W.
