By the end of World War II\, Nazis and collaborators had succeeded in killing over 90% of Poland’s Jewish population\, about three million people. Most survivors emigrated\, but an estimated 90\,000 remained – only to be expelled in large numbers through an antisemitic\, government-run campaign in 1968. \n\nTraces of both the vibrant Jewish community that once lived in Poland – and the violence that killed and expelled so many of them – are visible in today’s contemporary Polish landscape: synagogues that are now furniture stores\, doorframes that once held mezuzot\, overgrown Jewish cemeteries. The Galicia Jewish Museum\, located in Kazimierz\, the pre-Holocaust heart of the Kraków Jewish Community\, exhibits photographs of these traces. In doing so\, the museum aims to complicate a narrative of Polish Jewish history that usually begins and ends solely with Auschwitz. \nIn this talk\, I share some of my experiences interning at the Galicia Jewish Museum this summer. Drawing on my experience giving tours of the museum’s permanent exhibition and working in the museum’s education department\, I’ll discuss the tangles of remembering the Holocaust in Poland and the complex landscape of Jewish institutions in Kraków. Institutions like the Galicia Jewish Museum\, I’ll argue\, offer us an opportunity to reflect on the politics of memory museums\, urban museology\, and the decisions that face those who live among traces of genocidal violence.

These beads are still used in East Africa and other regions. However\, the only well-documented ethnographic records of their manufacture come from the San and Bakgalagadi communities in the Kalahari region of southern Africa. Despite this\, some aspects of their social significance remain largely unexplored.\n\nHistorically\, research on ostrich eggshell beads in southern Africa has focused mainly on their use in exchange contexts\, with less emphasis on their role in bodily adornment or the social contexts of their manufacture and consumption. This talk reports on the production process of ostrich eggshell beads and their cultural significance among the El Molo community of Marsabit County\, Kenya.\n\nUndertaken as part of the British Museum’s Endangered Materials Knowledge Program (EMKP)\, this project utilized unstructured interviews\, participatory videos\, photography\, and note-taking to document the entire process of ostrich eggshell bead manufacture. It also examined the social significance of the different types of necklaces made from these beads within the community.

Results from computer simulations and experiments are presented that explore dynamic associations ranging from clusters to condensates. From atomistic simulations and extensive comparisons with experimental data\, cluster formation involving proteins is identified as a major determinant of slowed-down diffusion at high concentration depending on protein interaction strength but also contact life times. Results from coarse-grained simulations with the recently developed COCOMO model explore charge-driven condensation involving different systems ranging from globular proteins and RNA to short peptides and RNA fragment and condensates composed of intrinsically disordered peptides. Finally\, recent results form atomistic simulations of condensates are presented to discuss molecular densities and dynamics inside biomolecular condensates.

To safeguard their employment outcomes\, the popular press\, policymakers\, and college administrators emphasize the importance of “practical majors” as an avenue to professional success for students. Major Trade-Offs delves into the internship and early employment experiences of students from four majors to investigate the organizational and cultural infrastructure that underlies practical arts majors’ initial labor market advantages over liberal arts graduates. Drawing on almost 200 longitudinal interviews\, Corey Moss-Pech shows that students with more “practical” degrees often easily enter the labor market through structured internship programs and they find entry-level jobs that are highly paid. However\, these jobs mostly involve mundane clerical tasks not drawing on graduates’ major-specific skills. Those who studied the liberal arts\, on the other hand\, often don’t have access to such internships\, struggle to enter the labor market\, and land in jobs that rarely pay a middle-class wage but do meaningfully draw on their major-specific skills. These differences reflect intersectional inequality\, as White middle-class men are more likely to occupy lucrative majors than women and men from less privileged backgrounds. Major Trade-Offs demonstrates the key advantages to vocational majors lie not in learning technical skills\, but in smooth labor market entry\, a finding that undermines how both academics and stakeholders think about the utility of college disciplines and the skills they teach. Moss-Pech lays out a new vision for the college-to-work transition\, making valuable contributions to our pressing national conversation about the value of higher education in society.

This talk will share some recent and ongoing attempts to visualize and understand the current political landscape\, as well as some quantitative patterns in political psychology and the modern information ecosystem. These recently-gathered data inform a mechanistic dynamical model of ideological drift\, allowing theory to extrapolate the complex implications of micro-scale data to macro-scale outcomes---while iteratively improving and suggesting further data-gathering efforts to corner remaining uncertainty. The first waves of results from this perspective provide some remarkable insights\, providing some hope of understanding and productively informing political messaging and algorithmic design for a more reasonable political future.

It consists of hundreds of archival boxes with thousands of documents and reveals the activities of a multinational business group across the globe\, with companies in four continents (Europe\, Asia\, Africa and America) and 14 countries (Greece\, France\, Monaco\, Germany\, Norway\, Sweden\, United Kingdom\, Argentina\, Uruguay\, Panama\, Honduras\, United States\, Saudi Arabia and Liberia)\; its construction and classification breaks new ground in Business History internationally.\n\nGelina Harlaftis is Director\, Institute for Mediterranean Studies Foundation of Research and Technology-Hellas\, Professor of History of Maritime History\, University of Crete UID:126403-21857093@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/126403 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Classical Studies,Graduate Students,Lecture,Modern Greek LOCATION:Michigan League - Michigan Room CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241002T092336 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241101T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241101T163000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Sociocultural Anthropology Colloquium | \"Suspicion as Care: Reportage and Accusation in Perú’s Community Mental Health Reform\" DESCRIPTION:\"Perú initiated the implementation of a Community Mental Health model in 2016 after decades of reports about human rights violations in asylums. Now\, clients are being deinstitutionalized from psychiatric hospitals and transitioned back to their households. However\, this reform has been met with an unexpected increase in mutual suspicion as well as practices of supervision and accusation that challenge two assumptions: that there is a community\, and that care can be performed there.\n\nIn this talk\, I explore how the Community Mental Health model and the process of psychiatric deinstitutionalization are transforming the everyday lives of residents of Ciudad Norte\, an impoverished district located at the outskirts of Lima\, where the reform started. Drawing on 18 months (2021-2022) of ethnographic fieldwork\, I evidence how this reform is not a withdrawal from the state\, but a series of interventions that recalibrate residents’ subjectivities. Residents are encouraged to report neighbors’ behaviors that might indicate a mental health problem or poor care for the mentally ill\, blurring the lines between truth and rumor\, care and coercion\, informing on and helping out. These practices of reportage and accusation—that I call suspicion as care—are informed by the mental health reform\, the legacies of political violence in the 1980s\, the Fujimori dictatorship in the 1990s\, and the global health enterprise.\"\n\nJulio Villa-Palomino is an anthropologist of mental health working at the intersections of Latin American studies and Surveillance studies. He received his Ph.D. from The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and is currently a fellow in the University of Michigan Society of Fellows.\n\nJulio’s research explores Perú’s transition from mental health care in psychiatric hospitals to a Community Mental Health model. His work has been funded by the National Science Foundation\, the Wenner-Gren Foundation\, and the Society for Psychological Anthropology. Julio's public-facing and community-oriented work has resulted in the implementation of a job support program for people diagnosed with severe mental illness\, the creation of a digital platform for mental health advocacy\, and collaboration with Peru's National Institute of Mental Health.

For example\, in the work of Deligne and Illusie\, an infinitesimal liftability was a key ingredient for studying the degeneration of Hodge to de Rham spectral sequence. In this talk\, we will discuss a particular type of lifting of varieties where we also lift the Frobenius morphism. This “Frobenius lift” has quite strong cohomological consequences\, so we expect this to be rare. In fact\, a conjecture of Achinger\, Witaszek and Zdanowicz predicts that smooth projective varieties with Frobenius lifts are roughly built out of toric varieties and abelian varieties\, and we will illustrate this conjecture by examples.

The corresponding Higgs category (in the sense of Yilin Wu) categorifies the cluster algebra (with non invertible boundary coefficients) associated to the surface by Fomin--Shapiro--Thurston. In recent work\, Merlin Christ has given a completely different description of this category as the \"1-periodic topological Fukaya category\". He obtains it by simplifying Haiden-Katzarkov-Kontsevich's construction of the topological Fukaya category associated with the surface. Our aim is to present Christ's construction and\, if time permits\, the ongoing project of extending it to cluster algebras appearing in higher Teichmuller theory.

As such\, scholars across disciplines have been devoted to investigating how race and ethnicity feature in every aspect of social and political life. The purpose of I-REP (Interdisciplinary Workshop in Race\, Ethnicity and Politics) is to provide a space for scholars whose research centers race\, ethnicity and politics across a number of fields to receive critical feedback on the early stages of their work (especially graduate students)\, build community with other researchers who share similar interests and offer an opportunity for participants to collaborate on a joint research project within the working group.

His work includes landslide detection and assessment with remote sensing data and Machine Learning. He is also serving as Chair of the Young Engineering Geologist committee and Vice President of the International Association for Engineering Geology.\n\nAbstract: \nNatural hazards and climate change are intricately linked\, with shifting climatic patterns exacerbating the frequency and intensity of natural hazards such as landslides\, floods\, and storms. As these threats grow in scale and unpredictability\, assessing their impacts and developing mitigation strategies has become a critical challenge for ensuring the resilience of communities and ecosystems. The research explores the evolving landscape of natural hazards and climate change\, emphasizing advancements in scientific methodologies\, technological innovations\, and interdisciplinary approaches. Addressing the critical need for proactive assessment strategies\, the study highlights the integration of remote sensing\, geospatial analysis\, and predictive geological modeling to enhance hazard mapping and assessment. By fostering a deeper understanding of dynamic environmental processes and their interactions\, this research aims to contribute to more effective strategies for sustainable development and disaster preparedness in a rapidly changing world.

Bjarke defines architecture as the art and science of making sure our cities and buildings fit with the way we want to live our lives. Through careful analysis of local culture and climate\, the ever-changing patterns of contemporary life\, and the ebbs and flows of the global economy\, Bjarke believes in the idea of information-driven design as the driving force for his creative process.\n\nNamed one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World by Time Magazine in 2016\, Bjarke has designed and completed award-winning buildings globally. Bjarke was appointed Knight of the French Order des Arts et des Lettres and the Knight’s Cross of the Order of Dannebrog in 2019 and 2018\, respectively. In 2021\, he was selected as an ambassador of the EU’s New European Bauhaus. He was named an Honorary Fellow by the AIA in 2020\, the RIBA in 2015 and the RAIC in 2014. The Wall Street Journal recognized Bjarke as Innovator of the Year in 2011\, the same year he received the Danish Crown Prince’s Culture Prize. Bjarke was also awarded the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale in 2004 and the ULI Award for Excellence in 2009. Alongside his architectural practice\, Bjarke has taught at Harvard University\, Yale University\, Columbia University and Rice University and is an honorary professor at the Royal Academy of Arts\, School of Architecture in Copenhagen. He is a frequent public speaker and continues to hold lectures in venues such as TED\, WIRED\, AMCHAM\, 10 Downing Street\, the World Economic Forum and many more.\n\nThis memorial lecture was established to recognize John Dinkeloo’s extraordinary contributions to architecture and commemorate excellence in architectural design. This annual lecture celebrates those designers whose work combines design excellence with structural ingenuity.

The complex is homotopic to a wedge of spheres\, and bear some similarities with spherical buildings\, though it is not a building. While the topology of this complex prevent a CAT(0) metric on it\, we show that it contains large pieces supporting equivariant non-positive curvature metric. As an application\, we deduce new results on the K(pi\,1) conjecture for several classes of Artin groups.

Celebrated for their daring balancing acts hundreds of feet in the air while constructing iconic landmarks\, Kanien’keha:ka ironworkers have made a distinct impact on New York City since the 1920s. As their fame grew worldwide in the second half of the twentieth century\, the “Mohawk ironworker” evolved into a mythical and allegorical figure in New York City folklore and a fantasy of the Western imagination.\n \nAssociate Professor Allan Downey will discuss this paper and associated animation which will illustrate the complex\, intersecting ways popular discourse on Indigenous ironworking has influenced contemporary perceptions of Indigenous masculinity. The project explores Indigenous narratives of this history as acts of community resurgence\, intellectual sovereignty\, and restoration that offers a markedly different interpretation of Indigenous history.\n\nAllan Downey is Dakelh\, Nak’azdli Whut’en\, Canada Research Chair in Indigenous History\, Nationhood\, and Self-Determination\, and Associate Professor of History and Indigenous Studies Department at McMaster University.

The exhibition highlights the significance of community-based conversations between mother and daughter\, and their ongoing conversations with elders (ancestors)\, young folx\, and future generations as vital aspects of their methodology. These conversations often take place during basket gatherings - where community members come together and share stories and teachings that can encompass Anishinaabe creation stories\, as well as those of survivance and resilience\, to inform the materiality and liveness of their work. The curatorial and interpretive framework of this exhibition contends that the deeply situated and temporal works by Church (Stamps\, BFA 1998) and Parrish (LSA\, BA 2020) are repositories for Anishinaabe ways of knowing\, thinking\, and making that contribute to the complexity of American art and its histories. The expansive and bold practices of Church and Parrish affirm the sovereignty of Anishinaabe lifeways and the importance of including Indigenous narratives that have systematically been left out. Thus\, the thematic survey of their work will explore the under-examined themes that inform their work such as Native women’s labor as carriers of culture and knowledge-keepers\, the legacy of boarding schools and ancestors who walked on\, the treaties in Michigan and the long-overlooked legacy of Anishinaabe intellectual life and their relevance today. Just like the practice of weaving and interlacing distinct strips of black ash to create one whole\, Church and Parrish will address the diverse and interconnected themes with approximately 30-35 works\, including 15-17 new works. Together\, the exhibition offers an incisive critique of the colonial\, racist paradigm of systemic erasure and assimilation that continues to this day\, with the ongoing crises of missing and murdered Indigenous women\, culture wars\, and climate change that threaten Indigenous ways of living\, sustenance\, and making. \nCurated by Srimoyee Mitra with Curatorial Assistant Zoi Crampton.\nStamps Gallery is grateful to Michigan Humanities and U-M Arts Initiative for generously supporting the exhibition and programs.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621432@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20240620T181506 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241102T110200 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241102T170000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

It was on their own\, however-following divergent paths through disparate musical traditions\, countries\, and cultures-that they both arrived as virtuosi and composers at the highest levels of contemporary string music. Fans of acoustic music can hardly mention one without referencing the other's work. With HAAS\, these singular musicians finally record together - in duo form - for the first time.

The result? HAAS.\n\nNamed one of Dance Magazine’s “25 to Watch\,” Nic Gareiss (he/they) has been hailed by the New York Times for his “dexterous melding of Irish and Appalachian dance” and called “the most inventive and expressive step dancer on the scene” by the Boston Herald.

The works on view in this exhibition\, all brought into the Museum between 2019 and the present\, shows how institutions like UMMA are becoming more permeable to societal challenges\, and more nimble in responding to them in service to all in their communities. In this exhibition you will find works that reflect on how global migrations\, race\, gender\, and ecological change shape the way we engage with the world and inform our visions for the future.\n \nThis collection of artistic engagements with issues give us tools to envision who we want to be as individuals\, as a museum\, and as a society\, connected to one another across space and experience.\n \nSo gather here to take in these latest works of art brought here for you. Gather here to be engulfed in their forms and meanings\, to discuss their takes\, to learn\, to disagree. Gather to relax\, make a friend\, drink a coffee\, finish the daily Wordle.

Choices about which artists you see in our galleries\, choices about what relevant facts we share about the works\, and choices about what - out of an infinite number of options - we don’t say about them.\n \nPieces in this exhibition were made at a time when the world came to be shaped by the ideologies of colonial expansion and Western domination. And yet\, that history and the stories of those marginalized do not readily appear in the still lives and portraits on display here. By grappling with what is visible and what remains hidden\, we are forced to examine whose stories and histories are prioritized and why.  \n \nIn this online exhibition\, you can explore our efforts to deeply question the Museum’s collection and our own past complicity in favoring colonial voices. In the Museum gallery\, which will open in early 2021\, you’ll be able to experience the changes we’re making to the physical space to highlight a more honest version of European and American history. \n \nBy challenging our own practice\, and continuing to add to what we know and what we write about the works we display\, UMMA tells a more complex and more complete story of this nation - one that unsettles\, and fails to settle for\, simple narratives. \n \n“Invisible things are not necessarily ‘not there’.... Certain absences are so stressed\, so ornate\, so planned\, they call attention to themselves\; arrest us with intentionality and purpose\, like neighborhoods that are defined by the population held away from them.” \n \n— Toni Morrison\n\nLead support for Unsettling Histories: Legacies of Slavery and Colonialism is provided by the University of Michigan Office of the Provost\, the U-M Arts Initiative\, and the Susan and Richard Gutow Endowed Fund.\n  UID:84303-21621433@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84303 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Art,European,Exhibition,History,Museum,UMMA LOCATION:Museum of Art - European and American Decorative Art CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241103T120004 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241103T111100 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241103T121100 SUMMARY:Other:H2O Sunday Service DESCRIPTION:Come join us for praise and worship with students and alumni from UoM at the Rackham Building (4th floor).

Through his social and political works\, 2Fik creates lives for characters who almost seem real\, whose stories\, personalities\, and interests are rooted in our world. Each of his creations are conceived in a voyeuristic way that pushes the spectator to wonder what exists beyond the scope of the work. Each character in this humorous and interpretative world becomes a reflection of our society.\n\n\"Identity Potpourri\" by 2Fik is a mixture of different artworks from various series by the artist between 2006 and 2016.

The original Broadway production opened at the Music Box Theatre in NYC (designed by the architect of the State Theatre\, C. Howard Crane) in December 1931. This concert-style production will shine a spotlight on the Gershwin brothers’ music and feature U-M faculty\, performers from U-M’s Musical Theater Program\, and a Broadway scale orchestra. Contemporary theater critic Charles Isherwood said\, \"the laughter that greets the show today is tinged with surprise at how eerily some of its jokes seem to take precise aim\, from decades back\, at current affair.

Since 2004\, Glazer has been lead faculty and head of ceramics at Henry Ford College\, and former faculty of Concord College (WV) and North Dakota State University. His artwork has been exhibited throughout the country.\n\nThroughout his adult life the art of Steve Glazer has been done as a response to his environment. From a series of shadow box type pieces containing life like ceramic fish while teaching at a Catholic woman’s college\, to building 8’ tall ceramic “skyscrapers” that barely fit into the display spaces while teaching in North Dakota\, where no skyscrapers exist\, and then creating installations commenting on living in Appalachia while teaching in southern West Virginia. After returning home to Detroit\, Glazer began his griot series\, the “Motor City Griot Society” masks\, the faces of the superheroes that will save Detroit\, and more recently the “Motor City Griot Patrol” creatures that will protect the city of Detroit.

She collects and arranges images\, builds and subtracts\, and uses processes that suit the concepts and gives the pieces a reason for existing as textiles. Simultaneously she strives to make the medium influence the outcome in such a way that cloth and image meld together. Moran uses silkscreen\, shibori\, and stitching to embed images from her daily walks into the fabric. it's important that the work builds slowly\, involving meditative processes that connect her to the cloth and the source of the design.\n\nGallery hours: Monday-Friday\, 9 am to 5pm or by appointment serrag@med.umich.edu UID:124224-21852729@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/124224 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Alumni,Art,Culture,Detroit,Exhibition,Free,Graduate Students,North Campus,Visual Arts LOCATION:North Campus Research Complex Building 18 - Rotunda Gallery CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20241017T160229 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20241104T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20241104T140000 SUMMARY:Social / Informal Gathering:2024 First-Gen College Week Kickoff - Coffee and Snacks at the First-Gen Gateway DESCRIPTION:Kickoff the University of Michigan's First-Generation College Student Celebration Week with the Gateway!

These mental health utilization disparities have persisted for at least six decades. Neither evidence-based treatments nor culturally-adapted treatments adequately address the individual needs of people of color. People of color may not use mental health services because services are not: (a) personally relevant\; or (b) accessible. Our neuroscience data suggest that pragmatic\, problem-solving approaches are the most personally relevant for Asian Americans\, the least likely ethnic group to use mental health services. In this talk\, I discuss the development of the Mind Boba app to make psychotherapy more personally relevant and accessible to Asian Americans.\n\nAbout the speaker: Gordon Nagayama Hall is an Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of Oregon. Dr. Hall received his Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Fuller Theological Seminary. He started his career as a psychologist at Western State Hospital in Washington state. Dr. Hall later was a Professor of Psychology at Kent State University and Penn State University. He served as President of the American Psychological Association (APA) Society for the Psychological Study of Ethnic Minority Issues (Division 45) and as President of the Asian American Psychological Association. He was Editor of Cultural Diversity and Ethnic Minority Psychology. His textbook Multicultural Psychology is in its 4th Edition. Dr. Hall received the Lifetime Achievement Award from APA Division 45 and an APA Presidential Citation for his extraordinary leadership in advancing multicultural psychology. His research interests are in culture and mental health with a particular interest in Asian Americans. He currently has NIMH funding to develop the Mind Boba problem-solving therapy app for Asian Americans. Dr. Hall serves on the Board of Directors of the DisOrient Asian American Film Festival of Oregon.

While present axion dark matter search experiments are limited by quantum zero point noise\, new single microwave photon receivers based on superconducting qubits provide orders of magnitude noise reduction below the standard quantum limit. Using advanced quantum information processing techniques currently in development\, next generation experiments will be the first to deploy a rudimentary quantum computer as the front end for the readout electronics. Combined with recent advances in magnetic field-compatible microwave cavities\, these experiments will finally reach sensitivity to the predicted axion photon couplings over a decade in mass in the 10-100 micro-eV range.

However\, the presence and promise of anti-racism efforts are threatened by (1) policies and practices that are performative and culturally detached from the lived realities of marginalized social groups (e.g.\, racial/ethnic minorities) and (2) zero-sum claims that portray initiatives aimed at reducing systemic racism as benefitting marginalized social groups at the expense of more dominant social groups. Harnessing cultural psychological insights\, this talk explicitly addresses such threats. It provides empirical evidence that anti-racism efforts when driven by actionable change and imbued with meaningful cultural inclusion can yield dividends that are non-zero-sum— related to positive outcomes that are experienced among marginalized groups without costs to dominant groups. Across studies that leverage diverse methods\, anti-racism is examined as behaviors\, attitudes\, and policies (e.g.\, Black Lives Matter marches\, diversity curriculum practices). The talk highlights associations between anti-racism efforts and consequential life outcomes including social connectedness and polarization in social networks\, physical and mental well-being\, as well as intergenerational (infant) health and mortality. Holistically\, the talk presents findings that demonstrate the potential for societal thriving as positive outcomes are observed across social groups (e.g.\, among marginalized and dominant groups). It centers marginalized groups and underscores the importance of intergroup approaches for intervention strategies that are optimally positioned to realize more equitable outcomes. Theory and applied implications for minimizing and combating backlash to anti-racism efforts (e.g.\, book bans\, anti-diversity state policies) are discussed.\n\nThe RCGD Seminar Series on the Social Psychology of Systemic Racism meets Mondays from 3:30 to 5 at ISR Thompson 1430. When speaker permission is given\, events will be recorded and posted within a few weeks to YouTube.\n\nThe Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\nWhat are the points of connection between structures and individuals when we think about bias? In the Fall 2024 RCGD Seminar Series “The Social Psychology of Systemic Racism\,” an all-star lineup of behavioral and political psychologists will define what\, in their words\, makes systemic racism systemic\, and how extra-individual levels of analysis could be incorporated in social psychological theories and methods.\n\nGroup Dynamics Seminar Series\nThe Group Dynamics Seminar series is considered one of the longest running seminar series in the social sciences. It has been running uninterruptedly since it was founded by Kurt Lewin in the 1920’s in Berlin. The seminar series runs every semester on a theme chosen by faculty organizer/s who are affiliated with the Research Center for Group Dynamics at the Institute for Social Research. A very important feature of this seminar today is its interdisciplinary nature. Recent themes have included political polarization\, evolution and human behavior\, and cultural psychology.\n\nBio\nTiffany N. Brannon received her Ph.D. and M.A. in Social Psychology from Stanford University and her B.A. in Psychology from Florida International University. Her research examines socio-cultural identities in negatively stereotyped groups such as Latino/a/x and African Americans\; and she investigates the potential for these identities to serve as psychological resources— strengths that can facilitate a variety of individual and intergroup benefits. Her research has been published in top academic journals including Proceedings for the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS)\, Psychological Science\, American Psychologist\, the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology\, Social Issues and Policy Review\, and the Journal of Social Issues. She is a recipient of the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues’ (SPSSI) Otto Klineberg Intercultural and International Relations Award and Michele Alexander Early Career Award for Scholarship and Service.

When dispersion compensates for the large gradients induced by this initial data\, wave-breaking is often resolved by a dispersive shock wave (DSW). An active area of research is the investigation of quantitative features of DSWs in continuum models arising in physical applied mathematics. This talk leverages modern techniques to investigate solutions of the Riemann problem for a semi-discrete conservation law. The semi-discrete model is obtained by applying a first-order centered difference scheme to the spatial derivative of the Hopf equation. Solutions to the Riemann problem reveal a surprisingly elaborate set of solutions to this example system. In addition to discrete analogs of well-known dispersive hydrodynamic solutions—rarefaction waves (RWs) and DSWs—additional unsteady solution families and finite-time blow-up are observed and characterized. We will also compare the dynamics of the Riemann problem to an integrable discretization of the spatial derivative.\n\nEmail eblackst@umich.edu for the zoom link.

The two Brazilian artists propose that modernity\, insofar a systemic perpetuation of violence and domination\, is fundamental to understand decolonial theories that are built upon the idea of “desocultamento” or unhiding of diverse epistemologies\, grammars\, forms of social\, economic\, political and family organization\, and spirituality.\n\n“o modo superior da filosofia” is part of the “ATeliê voadOR Research Visibilization” project sponsored by the Secretaria de Cultura (Culture Ministry) of the State of Bahia through the Edital de Mobilidade Cultural and CAPES. The purpose of this project is to promote intercultural dialogue\, cooperation\, co-production\, exchange\, and collaboration between artists from Bahia\, Brazil\, and artists in other countries\, in addition to promoting the insertion of Bahia in the international circuit of art and culture.\n\n Djalma Thürler is a theater director\, dramaturge\, and interdisciplinary researcher with ATeliê voadOR Teatro in Salvador\, Bahia. He holds a PhD from Universidade Federal Fluminense (2006) and is a professor at the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA)\, where he researches queer language\, decolonial aesthetics\, and monstrous theatricalities with the NuCuS research group.\n \n Duda Woyda\, also affiliated with ATeliê voadOR Teatro\, is an actor and researcher. He holds a master’s and PhD in culture and society from UFBA and completed a postdoctoral fellowship in 2023.\n\nSponsors: Department of Romance Language and Literature\, Department of Women's and Gender Studies\, Department of American Culture\, and the Latino/a Studies Program.\n\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact lacs.office@umich.edu.

Driven by the gravitational pull of human connection\, her tendency towards exploration and collaboration have led her into countless niches\, each providing its own unique feather with which to decorate her distinct and ever-evolving sound.\n\nStarting as a young child picking up the fiddle for the first time\, Cortese has used these strings to tie herself to others\, forging connections across age\, genre\, and identity. After a Californian childhood filled with Celtic music camps\, Cortese went on to attend Berklee College of Music in Boston.\n\nHer early career explorations didn’t end with performance though. Cortese also co-founded the Boston Celtic Music Festival\, and later they Miles of Music Camp. The goal of this camp is not only to introduce these diverse musicians to new genres and musical catalogs\, but to build community and spark creativity. She has toured across the globe\, acting as an ambassador of American music on behalf of the US State Department by performing and teaching in India\, Kazakhstan\, Uzbekistan\, Bangladesh\, Estonia\, Greece\, Ukraine\, and Montenegro. Now\, she holds space and builds community for musicians in Belgium as the co-founder of the monthly Bright Lights Session in Ghent.\n\nAll of these threads have joined together\, culminating in her work leading the musicians’ collective known as Laura Cortese & the Dance Cards. Here\, she showcases all of her varied experience and expertise–as a master fiddler\, an instructor\, a leader\, and a musical collaborator–using it to craft a new sound from whole cloth: a nearly symphonic hybrid of countless traditions and influences\, full of layered vocal harmonies and rich interplays of virtuosic string instrumentation.
