U-M/NAS Town Hall (May 28, 2019 9:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/62945 62945-15520072@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, May 28, 2019 9:00am
Location: Michigan League
Organized By: ArtsEngine

The purpose of this town hall will be to discuss the findings and recommendations from the consensus report, The Integration of the Humanities and Arts with Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine in Higher Education: Branches from the Same Tree, released Spring 2018 by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM). The even will also facilitate discussions about strategies for the creation, evaluation, and sustainability of courses and programs that integrate across disciplines. The report represents a culmination of a two-year study conducted by a committee of National Academies members including scientists, engineers, health professionals, humanists, artists, and industry leaders. The report argues that integrating the humanities and arts with science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and medicine results in positive learning outcomes that will help students successfully enter the workforce, enrich their lives, and help them become active and informed citizens. Importantly, a range of positive educational outcomes resulted from these methods, including improved written and oral communication skills, teamwork skills, ethical decision-making, critical thinking, and the ability to apply knowledge in real-world settings.

Dialogues in Contemporary Thought VI | On Life (May 30, 2019 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/63805 63805-15888321@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, May 30, 2019 4:00pm
Location: Angell Hall
Organized By: Department of English Language and Literature

Prof. Branka Arsic (Columbia University) will be giving a public lecture on Thursday May 30th, at 4 p.m. QA to follow.

Description: My talk starts out from remarks Melville left in his Encantadas concerning the Galapagos tortoises and goes on to examine the scientific and historical archives to which he had recourse, from Cuvier and Broderip to Porter and Delano. On that basis I seek to reconstruct exactly what, in the early 19th century, prompted scientists, doctors, and naturalists, as well as traders and ordinary seamen, to obsess about the tortoise as a life form, one that was brought to the brink of extinction by the middle of the century. I argue that the reason why both physiologists in Continental scientific laboratories, and whalers traversing Antillean waters in trade ships, chose this particular animal to answer the question of what life is, derived from their ideas about what constituted pain, suffering, and cruelty. By rehearsing such debates over the presumed expressions of suffering, apathy and indifference on the part of the tortoise, I work to suggest that what scientists understood as apathy towards pain licensed the production of a bizarre taxonomy of life forms based on a creaturely capacity to resist violence. I, therefore, pay significant attention to the differences that science advanced between biologically - as opposed to psychologically - rational and irrational life forms, which leads to my concluding analysis of why, as a consequence, the irrational was designated as available for experimentation and vivisection.

Long Table Discussion: Art / Environment / Sustainability (June 27, 2019 5:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/61559 61559-15128245@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, June 27, 2019 5:30pm
Location: Museum of Art
Organized By: University of Michigan Museum of Art (UMMA)

UMMA and the Ann Arbor Summer Festival (A2SF) welcome artist Mary Mattingly to Ann Arbor for a three-day residency, June 27–30. Mattingly, whose photograph, Life of Objects, is featured in UMMA’s exhibition The World to Come: Art in the Age of the Anthropocene, is deeply concerned with our relationships to objects—where they come from, where they go, their implications for humans, and their impact on the environment. The centerpiece of the residency is a large-scale public art project titled Objects in the Round, in the Annex tent at Top of the Park on Ingalls Mall where festivalgoers will build a miniature landscape with Mattingly that explores relationships with objects, built landscapes, and habits of consumption.   To kick off her residency, Mattingly will be joined by thought leaders from U-M and beyond—A2SF's James Carter, UMMA curator Jennifer Friess, arts curator of the U-M Institute for the Humanities Amanda Krugliak, watershed planner of the Huron River Watershed Council Daniel Brown, Detroit-based interdisciplinary artist Sacramento Knoxx, independent film director and producer Diane Cheklich, and Christy Bieber, co-director of The Aadizookaan—for a discussion on the possibilities and challenges for artists and arts organizations creating and presenting artwork that explores sustainability and the environment. The Long Table format was born from director and scholar Lois Weaver’s exercise on participation and public engagement. Its aim is to foster civic-minded discussions on ideas and questions surrounding the city's creative culture. It’s a dinner table atmosphere encouraging participants to ask questions, make statements, leave comments, or openly sit, listen, and watch.

For more information about additional programs for Mattingly's residency and related to The World to Come exhibition, click here.

Mary Mattingly’s residency is presented in partnership with the Ann Arbor Summer Festival’s Festival Footprint Initiative established with generous support from  Toyota.

 
 


The World to Come: Art in the Age of the Anthropocene is organized by the Harn Museum of Art at the University of Florida and curated by Kerry Oliver-Smith, Harn Museum of Art Curator of Contemporary Art. Support for the exhibition is provided by the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, UF Office of the Provost, National Endowment for the Arts, C. Frederick and Aase B. Thompson Foundation, Ken and Laura Berns, Daniel and Kathleen Hayman, Ken and Linda McGurn, Susan Milbrath, an anonymous foundation, UF Center for Humanities and the Public Sphere, UF Office of Research and Robert and Carolyn Thoburn, with additional support from a group of environmentally-minded supporters, the Robert C. and Nancy Magoon Contemporary Exhibition and Publication Endowment, Harn Program Endowment, and the Harn Annual Fund.

Lead support for the local presentation of this exhibition is provided by Lizzie and Jonathan Tisch, the University of Michigan Office of the Provost, Michigan Medicine, Tom Porter in honor of the Michigan Climate Action Network, the Herbert W. and Susan L. Johe Endowment, and the University of Michigan Penny W. Stamps School of Art and Design and School for Environment and Sustainability.

When Debate, Discourse, and Exchange Go Bad: Bullying and Mobbing in the Academic Workplace (September 6, 2019 1:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/65117 65117-16517532@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, September 6, 2019 1:30pm
Location: Ross School of Business
Organized By: Interdisciplinary Committee on Organizational Studies - ICOS

Bullying is “rife” on campus. Academe is a “culture of cruelty”. Academics are “mean and nasty”. Really??? In this presentation, we will test the veracity of these characterizations through an examination of the global research literature on bullying and mobbing in the academic workplace. Specifically, we will explore the unique features of 1) academe (academic freedom, shared governance) and the nature of the university as a “workplace” and 2) faculty as “ workers” as well as 3) the broader social, political and economic context for how they shape the prevalence, nature, dynamics, impact of, and response to bullying and mobbing. Key insights include the status-based nature of bullying, our colleagues, the public, and the state as powerful actors, and the critical influence of culturally shaped behavioral norms in defining what is and is not bullying, who should be involved in assessing and addressing bullying, and some practical strategies for amelioration.

Location: Public Health I (Vaughan Building)
Organized By: Michigan Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease Center

The federal government, states, and utilities administer programs to improve the energy efficiency of low-income homes and affordable multifamily buildings. Investments in measures to save energy, as simple as air sealing and insulation, can also yield a broad range of non-energy benefits. This presentation will present research results that show that weatherization can improve health, home conditions, and social determinants of health. The results are drawn from three separate studies that were conducted nationally, regionally (Midwest and Northeast), and in Knoxville, Tennessee. Three3, Inc. conducts research and educational programming to promote the integration of environmental, social, and economic sustainability. The organization particularly focuses on fostering sustainable futures that: provide equitable benefits to low-income and disadvantaged populations (intra-generational equity); meets ethical obligations to future generations (inter-generational equity); and makes best use of the convergence of human knowledge and technology to meet sustainability goals.

Professor Henderson will meet with graduate students in order to discuss the special challenges of doing interdisciplinary work, from doing research outside one’s field to finding publication venues and audiences.

Professor Henderson's research centers in nineteenth-century British culture. She is particularly interested in exploring formal similarities between literary arts, visual arts, and sciences. Her most recent book, Algebraic Art: Mathematical Formalism and Victorian Culture (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2018), traces the influence of mathematical formalism on Victorian literature and visual art. Other recent articles include “The Physics and Poetry of Analogy” (Victorian Studies 56:3, Spring 2014) and “Symbolic Logic and the Logic of Symbolism” (Critical Inquiry 41:1, Autumn 2014).

Professor Henderson received her PhD in English from the University of Pennsylvania in 1991. She was an Associate Professor of English at the University of Michigan from 1997-2003. Her academic distinctions include the following: Guggenheim Fellow (2012-13), ACLS Fellow (2012-13), Michigan Humanities Award (1999), Bredvold Prize (1996), and Michigan Society of Fellows (1991-1994).

Please also see link to the final section of the conference, Queer(y)ing the “Alt-Right” on YouTube: https://events.umich.edu/event/65936

Over the past decade, the “alt-right” has moved from what one scholar called the “lunatic fringe” to the centers of power, and helped to infuse an unprecedented level of racism, misogyny, and bigotry into politics, culture, and discourse. Understanding the rise and consolidation of the “alt-right” requires interdisciplinary lenses, from fields such as cultural studies, media studies, feminist studies, and history, and attentiveness to the international rise of populism and ultranationalism.

Characterization and Combination (September 12, 2019 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/65385 65385-16575578@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, September 12, 2019 4:00pm
Location: Angell Hall
Organized By: Nineteenth Century Forum

Professor Henderson's talk will explore the power of combinatorics—a popular subfield of Victorian mathematics—to illuminate the structure of late Victorian characterization, focusing particularly on Dickens’s Our Mutual Friend. It will show that there is a good historical reason why, in the words of a contemporary reviewer, the characters of this novel could be described as “a number of automatons moving about,” “tattooed with various characteristics”: nodes in a social network, they are the literary
embodiment of a conception of personhood as mobile, extrinsically defined, and combinatory. Characters in these novels are not the fundamental units of social meaning that earlier nineteenth-century novelistic protocols would lead us to expect but are instead like atoms in a compound or letters in a word; they form variable combinations with others, and it’s the combinations that matter. Henderson will show that this focus on clusters of people rather than singular individuals has its historical grounding in the logic of late Victorian capitalism, an abstract logic of ramifying networks in which meaning and value inhere less in particular people or things than in their links to other people and things. As we will see, that logic is epitomized in combinatorics, the study of network ramification. Henderson argues that combinatorics is in fact the mathematical subfield of late Victorian capitalism: it both reflects and reinforces a logic of abstraction, combination, and expansion. It is fitting then that Dickens implements this logic in the “character system” of Our Mutual Friend, his great novel on finance capitalism. This novel, as the title suggests, is devoted to understanding persons in terms of networks, which it represents as the ethically suspect framework of finance capitalism.

Professor Henderson's research centers in nineteenth-century British culture. She is particularly interested in exploring formal similarities between literary arts, visual arts, and sciences. Her most recent book, Algebraic Art: Mathematical Formalism and Victorian Culture (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2018), traces the influence of mathematical formalism on Victorian literature and visual art.

I discuss the flawed evaluator problem, which asks how well can people assess their own intellectual and social skills, as well as those of others, when their expertise inevitably contains gaps and defects? I discuss how these imperfections lead people to misjudge themselves, often causing them to miss their own incompetence and gullability (the so-called Dunning-Kruger effect), and misjudge others, often prompting failures to recognize top-level competence and virtuosity among their peers (the Cassandra Quandary). I discuss the implications of the flawed evaluator problem for personal issues as well as society at large.

The History of Physics in 13 Songs, From Galileo to Dark Matter (September 13, 2019 8:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/65069 65069-16509336@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, September 13, 2019 8:00pm
Location: East Quadrangle
Organized By: Residential College

Join us for a 45-minute interdisciplinary musical performance that highlights the turning points in the history of physics.

The show combines fragments (excerpts from writings by some of the most prominent physicists in history) read and interpreted by a narrator (a role played by Lynnae Lehfeldt in the premiere), with original songs, based on each fragment, composed by Alberto Rojo, and performed by Alberto Rojo (guitar and voice), Michael Gould (percussion), and Dave Haughey (cello). The project explores the intersection between the arts and the sciences, and postulates that art and science are not antagonistic alternatives in the search for truth; rather, there is a broad territory of coexistence.

The movements are as follows Galileo (The Book of the Universe); Isaac Newton (From the Principia); Pierre Maupertuis (Least Action); Rudolf Clausius (The Limiting Condition); Ludwig Boltzmann (Atomic movements); James Clerk Maxwell (From letters to Faraday); Marie Curie (Radioactivity); Albert Einstein (From the 1905 paper); Max Planck (The quantum of action); Werner Heisenberg (Analogies); J. S. Bell (Remote Instruments); Richard Feynman (Trees are made of air); Vera Rubin (Dark Matter)

Organized By: The Center for the Study of Complex Systems

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics provides a useful set of tools to analyze and constrain the behavior of far from equilibrium systems. However, these tools have not yet been broadly applied to aid in the control of many body systems and materials assembled far from equilibrium. In this talk, I will report an application of ideas from non-equilibrium thermodynamics to the problems related to morphological changes in membranes, non-equilibrium self-assembly and more broadly control of material properties far from equilibrium. In many of these contexts, I will show how the material properties can be substantially constrained (and even predicted) using tools from non-equilibrium thermodynamics.

Chinese Railroad Workers, The Transcontinental, and the Making of Modern America (September 18, 2019 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/63431 63431-15694218@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, September 18, 2019 4:00pm
Location: Tisch Hall
Organized By: Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies

This year is the 150th anniversary of the completion of the first transcontinental railroad line. At Promontory Summit, Utah on May 10, 1869, the Central Pacific and Union Pacific Railroad lines celebrated the spanning of the country with iron. Hailed ever since as a signal development in post-Civil War America, the story of the transcontinental is often romanticized and celebrated as a national triumph. Relegated to the margins or even erased altogether from many accounts, Chinese railroad workers were actually central to the effort. Chang’s historical recovery returns these workers to the center of the narrative. His lecture will consider historiography, the methodological challenge of writing history without traditional documentation, and the place of this history in the rise of modern America.


Gordon H. Chang is professor of history, Olive H. Palmer Professor in the Humanities, and the Senior Associate Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education at Stanford University. He studies the histories of America-China relations, U.S. diplomacy, and Asian American history. Among his publications are Friends and Enemies: The United States, China, and the Soviet Union, 1948-1972; Morning Glory, Evening Shadow: Yamato Ichihashi and His Internment Writing, 1942-1945; Asian Americans and Politics: Perspectives, Experiences, Prospects; editor with Judy Yung and H.M Lai, Chinese American Voices: From the Gold Rush to the Present; editor with Mark Johnson and Paul Karlstrom, Asian American Art: A History, 1850-1970; and Fateful Ties: A History of America’s Preoccupation with China. He has been a Guggenheim and ACLS Fellow.

He currently co-directs the Chinese Railroad Workers in North America Project at Stanford and has published two books this year: The Chinese and the Iron Road: Building the Transcontinental (editor with Shelley Fisher Fishkin) and Ghosts of Gold Mountain: The Epic Story of the Chinese Who Built the Transcontinental.

A pre-eminent scholar, Dr. King leads studies to understand the genetic causes of serious human disorders including breast and ovarian cancer and schizophrenia. Her work focuses on disentangling genetic heterogeneity in complex traits, and on discovering rare alleles that cause common disorders. From her ground-breaking doctoral dissertation that transformed evolutionary biology to her formative work proving the existence of a major gene for a complex trait that demonstrated the genetic inheritance of breast cancer, Dr. King has contributed significantly to the advancement of scientific knowledge of genetics. Most recently, her laboratory developed and patented a targeted capture and massively parallel sequencing approach (BROCA) that detects mutations in breast and ovarian cancer genes.

A leading human rights advocate, Dr. King pioneered the development of genomics tools for human rights investigations including use of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequencing to match kidnapped children to possible maternal relatives after the end of Argentinian dictatorship of 1975-1983. Her approach is now used by governmental and United Nations forensic teams worldwide to identify remains of victims of extra-judicial execution and missing soldiers.

Dr. King received her PhD in Genetics from the University of California at Berkeley, and her postdoctoral training at UC San Francisco. A professor at UC Berkeley from 1976-1995, she has been the American Cancer Society Professor of Medical Genetics and Genome Sciences at the University of Washington since 1995. She is a member of the National Academy of Medicine (1994), the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (1999), and the National Academy of Sciences (2005) and is a past President of the American Society of Human Genetics. Among her many honors, she was awarded the Lasker-Koshland Special Achievement Award in Medical Science (2014), the National Medal of Science (2016) and the Advocacy Award of the American Society of Human Genetics (2018).
A reception, sponsored by UM Precision Health, will immediately follow the lecture.

Ochy Curiel, Universidad Nacional de Colombia
“Encuentros y Desencuentros: Between Decolonial Feminism and Cuir/Queer Theory and Practice" (in Spanish).

Drawing on decolonial feminism which brings together and is complicated by the contributions, theories, analyses and practices of the most critical currents in feminism—such as Black feminism, feminist autonomous separatism, lesbian feminism, the feminism of indigenous women and Abya Yala’s indigenous origins—as well as the contributions of the decolonial turn around the historical construction of modernity and coloniality, this presentation seeks to problematize certain cuir/queer positions and analyses which only consider those bodies that are generated by and sexualized within privileged positions in regards to race, class, and geopolitics. At the same time, this paper tries to revive more critical and radical cuir/queer positions that contribute to constructing projects of social transformation and collective emancipation.

Ochy Curiel is professor of Gender Studies at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia. She is an Afro-Dominican feminist, lesbian, anti-racist, and decolonial singer/scholar/activist who has been at the forefront of contemporary Afro-feminist movements throughout Latin America.

5:00-6:00pm Reception

Workplace Discrimination at the Intersection of Race and Gender (September 20, 2019 1:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/65291 65291-16565510@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, September 20, 2019 1:30pm
Location: Ross School of Business
Organized By: Interdisciplinary Committee on Organizational Studies - ICOS

Issues related to discrimination, belonging, and harassment in the workplace are intersectional (Cole 2009; Crenshaw 1989). That is, people are harassed, excluded, and discriminated against for a variety of social identities (e.g., class, sexuality, gender, age, race, size) which intersect and interrelate. In social and organizational psychology, efforts to understand and end workplace discrimination thus far have tended to focus on single dimensions of marginalization or privilege (e.g., gender), giving us an incomplete picture of how discrimination is enacted and experienced. In this talk, I will discuss research from the PWR (Power, Women, and Relationships) Lab that has used intersectionality theory and the stereotype content model to understand how discrimination manifests for employees based on their combined racial and gender identities. First, I will discuss published quantitative research with students Jessica Saunders and Ryan Jacobson on how STEM professors evaluate post-doc candidates based on the candidates’ race and gender, together. Next, I will discuss published and unpublished qualitative research with student Anna Kallschmidt on identity management and belonging among White men employees from working class and impoverished backgrounds. Finally, I will discuss work student Sarah Robinson and I are pursuing on how the use of certain dialectical styles (White American, urban African American, and Southern American) effects ratings of men employees in individual-structured telephone interviews. Implications of intersectional approaches for fair and just hiring practices and for diversity trainings and interventions will be discussed.

Improving Data Quality for Web Surveys in Real Time through Predictive Modeling Using Paradata

Paradata are a rich source of data that are collected through little additional effort by researchers. However, paradata are often underutilized. This study suggests a novel approach to use paradata to alter the survey itself in real time in order to improve data quality.

Through a predictive model, paradata about the responses will be utilized to alter the presentation of the survey questions themselves. First, if respondents straight-line through a grid section of the survey, following grids could be changed to single item questions in order to discourage straight-lining. Second, if respondents display multiple indicators of poor data quality, key questions could be moved forward in the survey to present earlier. This second option reduces survey length, lowers cognitive burden for respondents that are taking short cuts, and prevents drop-offs. Both of these techniques could help to improve data quality.

Though programming a survey to adapt in real time may involve a large effort in the beginning, once employed it could be used across projects for little additional cost. Improving data quality should be a goal of everyone in the survey research community. As web surveys continue to increase in frequency of implementation, the focus on data quality of this mode should be a priority.

In September of 2014, the Department of the Interior (DOI) Secretary Sally Jewell received a letter of complaint from 13 former and current National Park Service (NPS) employees who described incidents of discrimination, retaliation and hostile work environments they experienced or witnessed over their 15 years of collective employment at NPS (US Department of the Interior, 2016a). These complaints were validated by the DOI Inspector General and subsequently triggered investigations and congressional hearings into the nature and extent of sexual harassment within the NPS work environment. In response to these events, the leadership of the NPS renewed its commitment to making substantial and long-term cultural changes at the agency to prevent sexual harassment and to ensure every employee has a safe and respectful work environment (Reynolds, 2016). As part of these efforts, the leadership of the NPS commissioned a study of the work environment at the NPS. The study was designed to assess employees’ attitudes, perceptions, and behaviors on a wide range of topics related to the character, context, correlates and consequences of harassment and/or assault behaviors experienced by employees within the NPS work environment. This presentation will present findings related to employees’ experiences with harassing and/or assault behaviors and situational factors surrounding these experiences. The presentation will also report findings regarding demographic, occupational, and organizational factors linked with harassing and/or assault behaviors experienced at work; and job-related consequences of harassing and/or assault behaviors experienced at work. The presentation will discuss how the results from the study served to inform, influence and impact strategic and long-term efforts to change the NPS culture, to prevent sexual harassment and ensure that every employee has a safe and respectful work environment.

Switching away from web surveys: what can we learn from JavaScript "OnBlur" functions about response behavior?

The increase in web surveys allows researchers to collect a variety of paradata alongside traditional survey responses. Some paradata, such as response times, enjoy a long tradition in survey research, but others, such as window/tab switching, are only rarely used in survey research. In this talk, I focus on the usefulness and usability of JavaScript "OnBlur" functions informing about how often and for how long respondents switch away from web surveys. For this purpose, I present the results of two empirical studies: the first study explores the impact of on-device multitasking, such as switching away to check social media notifications, on response behavior. The second study, in contrast, focuses on the consequences of looking up answers online for measuring political knowledge. The talk ends with a discussion of further fields of application for JavaScript "OnBlur" functions in survey research.

From incivility and undermining, to harassment and aggression, researchers have documented the many ways in which people mistreat one another while on the job. Research shows that interpersonal workplace mistreatment is associated with harm to individual targets, bystanders, and organizations. However, less scholarship is focused on understanding the antecedents to workplace mistreatment and ways to intervene - why it happens and what to do about it. This talk will review research my colleagues and I have done to help understand ways to counter workplace mistreatment and build respectful workplaces, as well as research opportunities in this area of organizational studies.

National Book Tour of Journey for Justice: The Life of Larry Itliong (October 7, 2019 11:30am) https://events.umich.edu/event/67249 67249-16829024@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, October 7, 2019 11:30am
Location: Haven Hall
Organized By: Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies

In commemoration of October as Filipino American History Month, join us at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, as we host another stop on the National Book Tour of Journey for Justice: The Life of Larry Itliong, with co-author and publisher, Gayle Romasanta (from Stockton, California), on Monday, October 7, 2019.

About Journey for Justice:

In 2019-2020, Bridge and Delta Publishing in partnership with the Filipino American National Historical Society (FANHS) and PapaLoDown Agency takes “Journey for Justice: The Life of Larry Itliong,” on a 20+ city national book tour. This is the first nonfiction illustrated children’s book about Filipino American history, and the first book ever written about Larry Itliong. The children’s book written by the late historian Dawn Bohulano Mabalon, Ph.D. with Gayle Romasanta and illustrated by Andre Sibayan, tells the story of forgotten United Farm Workers (UFW) cofounder, Larry Itliong, his migration to the United States and his lifelong fight for a farmworkers union. The city of Delano, California, was the first stop of the national book tour with events held in Seattle, WA; New York; Washington DC; Anchorage, AK; Santa Ana, CA; Houston, TX; with future stops in Southfield and Ann Arbor, MI; Milwaukee, WI; Chicago, IL; Wapato, WA; Virginia Beach, VA; Irvine, San Diego, Stockton, SF Bay Area, CA; Lancaster and Philadelphia, PA; Honolulu, HI; and more.

“Journey for Justice is a significant children’s book about a legendary pioneer in the farmworkers movement. This was the last book that FANHS National Scholar and Trustee Dr. Dawn Bohulano Mabalon, wrote before she passed away suddenly on Aug. 10, 2018. We are committed to carry on Dawn’s legacy so that people of all ages can learn more about Filipina/o American history. We support this book and strongly encourage everyone to read it and discuss it with their children, community, and educators,” shares University of Michigan Prof. Emily P. Lawsin, FANHS National Vice President.

Currently, Filipino Americans are the largest Asian American group in 10 of the 13 western states, the second largest Asian American population in the nation, and is the oldest Asian population in the nation, with hardly any mention of their contributions to U.S. history in school textbooks. This book will be the first out of a planned series of four books about Filipino American historical figures for students of all ages, from 10 and up. A free teacher’s curriculum guide created by Pin@y Educational Partnerships is available at www.bridgedelta.com.

Bridge and Delta Publisher and Owner Gayle Romasanta and the Filipino American community celebrate and aim to further Dr. Dawn Mabalon’s work to spread Filipino American history, especially “Journey for Justice: The Life of Larry Itliong,” Mabalon’s last book. Romasanta says, “She made history accessible and was a revered community activist. She not only was a scholar, but her work touched the Filipino

American community on a national scale. She not only saved the remaining Filipino neighborhood Little Manila buildings in her hometown of Stockton and named the area ‘Historic Little Manila,’ she traveled the country speaking and connecting with the community and spreading her wealth of knowledge about American history, Filipino American food history, and more. She was the leading Filipino American historian before her untimely passing.”

The Journey for Justice National Book Tour in Michigan will include a community visit to Paaralang Pilipino Language and Cultural School, which is housed in the Philippine American Community Center of Michigan, in Southfield, and a book signing reception and guest lectures at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor (in WOMENSTD 151/AMCULT/ASIANPAM 102: Women’s Studies First Year Seminar on Food and Gender in Asian American Communities, and in AMCULT/ASIANPAM 310: Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies [Race & Ethnicity-Social Sciences] class on the Filipino American Experience).

While the Journey for Justice book celebrates Larry Itliong and the history of the Delano Grape Strike, it also highlights Dr. Dawn Mabalon’s life work as the co-founder of Little Manila Rising (formerly the Little Manila Foundation), Filipino American National Historical Society National Scholar and Trustee, a San Francisco State University professor, and author of multiple books including “Little Manila Is In the Heart: The Making of the Filipina/o American Community in Stockton, California” (Duke University Press, 2013).

Latinx & Muslim in America (October 9, 2019 7:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/67741 67741-16926552@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, October 9, 2019 7:00pm
Location: Haven Hall
Organized By: Arab and Muslim American Studies (AMAS)

In honor of Latinx Heritage History Month, the Arab and Muslim American Studies Program has invited Dr. Harold D. Morales to give a lecture based on his book, Latino and Muslim in America: Race, Religion, and the Making of a New Minority, which is the first complete academic study on Latinx Muslims in the United States.

Dinner will be served!

Dr. Harold D. Morales is an Associate Professor in the department of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Morgan State University where he teaches courses in religious studies and philosophy of religion. He earned his Ph.D. and M.A. in Religious Studies from the University of California Riverside and his B.A. in Philosophy from California State University Fullerton. His research focuses on the intersections between race and religion and between lived and mediated religion. He uses these critical lenses to engage Latinx religions in general and Latino Muslim groups in particular. He is the author of Latino and Muslim in America: Race, Religion, and the Making of a New Minority (2018). His work with Latino Muslim communities spans ten years of media analysis and ethnographic research in California, Texas, Georgia, Florida, New York and New Jersey.

"Latino and Muslim in America examines how so called "minority groups" are made, fragmented, and struggle for recognition in the U.S.A. The U.S. is currently poised to become the first nation whose collective minorities will outnumber the dominant population, and Latinos play no small role inthis world changing demographic shift. Even as many people view Latinos and Muslims as growing threats, Latino Muslims celebrate their intersecting identities both in their daily lives and in their mediated representations online.In this book, Harold Morales follows the lives of several Latino Muslim leaders from the 1970's to the present, and their efforts to organize and unify nationally in order to solidify the new identity group's place within the public sphere. Based on four years of ethnography, media analysis andhistorical research, Morales demonstrates how the phenomenon of Latinos converting to Islam emerges from distinctive immigration patterns and laws, urban spaces, and new media technologies that have increasingly brought Latinos and Muslims in to contact with one another. He explains this growingcommunity as part of the mass exodus out of the Catholic Church, the digitization of religion, and the growth of Islam. Latino and Muslim in America explores the racialization of religion, the framing of religious conversion experiences, the dissemination of post-colonial histories, and thedevelopment of Latino Muslim networks, to show that the categories of race, religion, and media are becoming inextricably entwined."

Horror & Enchantment (October 11, 2019 9:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/65467 65467-16603594@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, October 11, 2019 9:00am
Location: Tisch Hall
Organized By: Department of History

We are fascinated by what we fear. Misery appalls and magnetises. Creation means possibility but also beckons dissolution and catastrophe. Change – perhaps most radically projected as “conversion” – is at once an exhilarating and menacing prospect. When meanings are destabilised and predictabilities lost, experiences of opportunity and of awe jostle with feelings of anxiety and insignificance. Even love casts its shadows, turning what is intimate and familiar into the province of comfort but also dread. Revered ancestors become ghosts, dear neighbours witches. There is desire in absence, monster in treasure, chaos in awe.

A distinguished, international selection of scholars from across the humanities and social sciences gathers in Ann Arbor to explore the entwinement of horror and enchantment – amidst the intrusions and disturbances that characterised the medieval and early modern worlds – in an array of the post-colonial settings and cultural imaginations they helped to set in motion – and in a recognition of the fact that to investigate the coincidence of horror and enchantment in the past is also to inquire into ourselves, and into the volatilities and predicaments of our own times and places.

Addressing Sexual Violence with Institutional Courage (October 11, 2019 1:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/65119 65119-16517534@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, October 11, 2019 1:30pm

Sexual violence (including sexual assault and sexual harassment) occurs frequently and can cause substantial harm. Sexual violence is often experienced in the context of an institution (such as a university); our research indicates that associated institutional behaviors can harm or help. In this presentation I will present concepts and research related to these issues: betrayal trauma theory & betrayal blindness, DARVO (Deny, Attack, & Reverse Victim & Offender; a harmful perpetrator response to disclosure), institutional betrayal, and institutional courage.

Horror & Enchantment (October 12, 2019 10:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/65467 65467-17035289@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Saturday, October 12, 2019 10:00am
Location: Tisch Hall
Organized By: Department of History

We are fascinated by what we fear. Misery appalls and magnetises. Creation means possibility but also beckons dissolution and catastrophe. Change – perhaps most radically projected as “conversion” – is at once an exhilarating and menacing prospect. When meanings are destabilised and predictabilities lost, experiences of opportunity and of awe jostle with feelings of anxiety and insignificance. Even love casts its shadows, turning what is intimate and familiar into the province of comfort but also dread. Revered ancestors become ghosts, dear neighbours witches. There is desire in absence, monster in treasure, chaos in awe.

A distinguished, international selection of scholars from across the humanities and social sciences gathers in Ann Arbor to explore the entwinement of horror and enchantment – amidst the intrusions and disturbances that characterised the medieval and early modern worlds – in an array of the post-colonial settings and cultural imaginations they helped to set in motion – and in a recognition of the fact that to investigate the coincidence of horror and enchantment in the past is also to inquire into ourselves, and into the volatilities and predicaments of our own times and places.

Against Hungry Listening (October 17, 2019 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/67620 67620-16907165@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Thursday, October 17, 2019 4:00pm
Location: Haven Hall
Organized By: Native American Studies

What are the ways in which settler colonial and Indigenous ontologies structure perception, and listening in particular? This presentation provides an overview of forms of extractive or “hungry” perception, and alternatives to these that emerge from Indigenous sensory engagement. The range of such listening practices are necessarily multiple and dependent upon the specificities of Indigenous and settler epistemes at play, it is nonetheless possible to discern historical patterns of “civilizing” the attention of Indigenous people, and ongoing settler listening practices oriented toward the instrumentalization Indigenous knowledge. In contrast, forms of Indigenous listening resurgence refuse the anthropocentrism of listening, and instead proceed from intersubjective experience between listeners and song-life.

Dylan Robinson is a xwélméxw artist and writer (Stó:lō Nation, Sqwa), and the Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Arts at Queen’s University. His current work focuses on the re-connection of Indigenous songs with communities who were prohibited by law to sing them as part of Canada’s Indian Act from 1882-1951.

Epistemic Exclusion of Faculty of Color: Academic Gatekeeping through Scholarly Devaluation (October 18, 2019 1:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/65289 65289-16565508@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, October 18, 2019 1:30pm
Location: Ross School of Business
Organized By: Interdisciplinary Committee on Organizational Studies - ICOS

Underrepresented minority faculty (URM; i.e., Black, Hispanic, and American Indian) remain underrepresented within academia, with each of these groups holding fewer than 4% of full-time faculty positions according to 2013 data (U.S. Department of Education, 2013). Further, their representation declines as rank increases. Epistemic exclusion may act as a barrier to the number, retention, and advancement of URM faculty in the academy. Epistemic exclusion (Dotson, 2012, 2014) is the devaluation of URM scholars and the research they do (often on marginalized groups) as illegitimate, lacking value, and outside of disciplinary norms. These disciplinary norms are established and maintained by those who hold power and prestige due to their success working within the dominant discourse. These individuals are often resistant to changing norms either because of narrow views of the field, self-interest, or personal biases towards URMs. In this talk, I use data from 118 faculty interviews, 3 faculty focus groups, and a large faculty survey to illustrate formal and informal ways in which epistemic exclusion operates, and the consequences it has for the psychological well-being, job outcomes, and career trajectories of faculty of color.
