DSI Lecture Series | The Black Menaces: Social Media, Race, and Activism on College Campuses (February 8, 2023 4:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/103456 103456-21807229@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, February 8, 2023 4:00pm
Location: Weiser Hall
Organized By: Digital Studies Institute

The Black Menaces are a coalition of students from various universities across the nation fighting to empower marginalized communities through social media.

Through social media platforms like Tik Tok, Instagram, and Twitter they highlight how PWIs (Predominantly White Institutions) do not create safe spaces for marginalized students. The Black Menaces highlight overt and covert racism, homophobia, xenophobia, sexism, and more through questions. They share the stories and experiences of any and all marginalized students.

As the Black Menaces, they seek to make all necessary changes at universities across the nation to ensure the mental, emotional, and physical safety of all students. Through reforming the curriculum, systems, and management change will occur to make equitable standards.

Join the Digital Studies Institute for a panel conversation with the Black Menaces leadership team Nate Byrd, Kennethia Dorsey, Kylee Shepherd, Sebastian Stewart-Johnson, Rachel Weaver with Professor Apryl Williams to learn about the creation of the Black Menaces movement and to discuss the use of social media as a tool for activism on college campuses.

Learn more about the Black Menaces at www.theblackmenaces.org.

Organized By: Institute for the Humanities

This talk considers the Black feminist provocation to reimagine archives in creative and speculative ways through Umi’s Archive, an interdisciplinary and multimedia research project that engages everyday Black women’s thought to investigate key questions of archives and power. Umi is Black Arabic for "mommy" and in this talk I trace how by analyzing my mother’s archive, I have moved away from colonial logics that demand we “verify” a Black past and toward practices of listening, reading and creative speculation, modes of research that require intimacy and collaboration, that build new archives that propose new possibilities.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Asian/Pacific Islander American Studies

Leslie Bow (English, Wisconsin) will be in conversation with a UM faculty member about her recent book Racist Love: Asian Abstraction & the Pleasure of Fantasy. In Racist Love, Bow traces the ways in which Asian Americans become objects of anxiety and desire. Conceptualizing these feelings as “racist love,” she explores how race is abstracted and then projected onto Asianized objects. Bow shows how anthropomorphic objects and images such as cartoon animals in children’s books, home décor and cute tchotchkes, contemporary visual art, and artificially intelligent robots function as repositories of seemingly positive feelings and attachment to Asianness. At the same time, Bow demonstrates that these Asianized proxies reveal how fetishistic attraction and pleasure serve as a source of anti-Asian bias and violence.

“Black Mirror and Black Feminist Futures or Leticia Wright’s Wrongs?” Jill S. Harris Memorial Lecture by Moya Bailey (February 15, 2023 5:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/102175 102175-21803619@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, February 15, 2023 5:30pm
Location: Museum of Art
Organized By: Institute for the Humanities

This talk takes a look back at the “Black Museum” episode of the popular pre-pandemic technodystopian SciFi series *Black Mirror*, to ask: is this a Black feminist text and does it make a difference if the actor in the role is not a feminist? Examining the filmography of Leticia Wright in contrast with her conservative Christian views, this talk endeavors to think through the messiness of the feminist potential of performance even in spite of oneself. Moderated by Apryl Williams, assistant professor of communication and media and the Digital Studies Institute.

About the Exhibition
Nicole Marroquin is an interdisciplinary artist, researcher, and educator whose practice explores spatial justice and Latinx history. Deeply rooted in community, she cultivates and reaffirms the human connections that ultimately sustain us. Her recent work explores the emergent themes of belonging as seen through the histories of student rebellions in Chicago public schools between 1968 and 1980.

Her site-specific installation *With Care*, created for the Institute for the Humanities Gallery, presents the documentary photographs of influential Mexican-born artist, teacher, and friend Diana Solís in visual dialogue with Marroquin’s own creative work which includes ceramic sculptures and printmaking. Solís’s photography reflects over 25 years of transnational Chicana and lesbian organizing primarily in Chicago and Mexico City between 1975 and 1990.

About the Exhibition
Nicole Marroquin is an interdisciplinary artist, researcher, and educator whose practice explores spatial justice and Latinx history. Deeply rooted in community, she cultivates and reaffirms the human connections that ultimately sustain us. Her recent work explores the emergent themes of belonging as seen through the histories of student rebellions in Chicago public schools between 1968 and 1980.

Her site-specific installation *With Care*, created for the Institute for the Humanities Gallery, presents the documentary photographs of influential Mexican-born artist, teacher, and friend Diana Solís in visual dialogue with Marroquin’s own creative work which includes ceramic sculptures and printmaking. Solís’s photography reflects over 25 years of transnational Chicana and lesbian organizing primarily in Chicago and Mexico City between 1975 and 1990.

Location: Tisch Hall
Organized By: Department of History

In this talk, Professor Camilla Townsend, author of "Fifth Sun: A New History of the Aztecs," will address what we can learn from Nahuatl-language sources produced in the sixteenth century if we open ourselves to everything they have to teach us. She will also discuss what she believes are the reasons we have tended to be resistant to their messages, even in recent times.

Camilla Townsend is Board of Governors Distinguished Professor of History at Rutgers University, New Brunswick. She is the author of numerous books on Indigenous history, among them "Pocahontas and the Powhatan Dilemma" (2004), "Malintzin’s Choices: An Indian Woman in the Conquest of Mexico" (2006), and "Fifth Sun: A New History of the Aztecs" (2019), which won the 2020 Cundill Prize in History. Her research has been supported by such entities as the American Philosophical Society, the National Endowment for the Humanities, and the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation.

This lecture will take place in person in 1014 Tisch Hall on Tuesday, March 21 at 4:00 pm.

About the Exhibition
Nicole Marroquin is an interdisciplinary artist, researcher, and educator whose practice explores spatial justice and Latinx history. Deeply rooted in community, she cultivates and reaffirms the human connections that ultimately sustain us. Her recent work explores the emergent themes of belonging as seen through the histories of student rebellions in Chicago public schools between 1968 and 1980.

Her site-specific installation *With Care*, created for the Institute for the Humanities Gallery, presents the documentary photographs of influential Mexican-born artist, teacher, and friend Diana Solís in visual dialogue with Marroquin’s own creative work which includes ceramic sculptures and printmaking. Solís’s photography reflects over 25 years of transnational Chicana and lesbian organizing primarily in Chicago and Mexico City between 1975 and 1990.

"Ma and Me: A Memoir" can be described as an excellent interwoven story of the refugee experience, involving the Americanization of immigrant children, tension and drama between mother and daughter’s cultural expectations, the lingering effects of war, and the pursuit of the American dream. With a journalist’s eye and a creative writer’s heart, Cambodian-American journalist Putsata Reang has crafted a memorable narrative with poignant lines, rare clarity, and lyrical wisdom. Her story reflects the long legacy of inherited trauma, as well as the crushing weight of cultural and filial duty carried by many immigrants and refugees as they navigate transnational, first-gen, queer, and ethnic and racial identities in the US.


Please join us for this conversation with Putsata Reang in the Helmut Stern Auditorium/UMMA on Friday, Mar 24, 2023.
Time: 2:00 - 4:00 PM
Door opens:1:30 PM
Book Signing: 3:30 PM

This event is open to all U-M community members and registration is required. The first 50 people who register and show up to attend the event will receive a free copy of the book at the sign-in on the day of the event with the presence of UMID.

This event is coordinated by the Office of Multi-Ethnic Student Affairs and co-sponsored by The Spectrum Center, The University of Michigan Museum of Art, The Trotter Multicultural Center, and The First-Generation Initiatives.

The U.S. is experiencing unprecedented levels of political polarization relative to the past few decades, especially in terms of affective polarization, or feelings of dislike and distrust towards members of the opposing political party. In this winter talk series, we will hear from experts across disciplines (social psychology, political science, sociology, communication) in order to better understand why political polarization is so high and what, if anything, can we do about it.

Location: 202 S. Thayer
Organized By: Institute for the Humanities

About the Exhibition
As part of the artist's vision for this project, the installation will be activated on opening night with a collective response to the objects, the space, and the archives within. Facilitated by: Ricky Weaver, Viktor Givens, Bryce Detroit, Andrew Wilson, and Efe Bes.

About the Artist
Ricky Weaver is an image-based artist, theorist, and mother, born in Ypsilanti, MI. Her art and theory are centered around the lexicon generated through black women's everyday practices, dark sousveillance, and images as objects that alchemize the archive on a quantum level. She is currently teaching at ArtCenter College of Art and Design in Pasadena, CA as a fellow for the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design. Weaver is represented by David Klein Gallery and has shown work at Art Miami, the Havana Biennale, Sofa Expo, and more. Her work has been acquired by institutions like the Wedge Collection and published in Aperture’s As We Rise: Photography from the Black Atlantic.

Weaver was named one of LensCulture's Critics Choice Artists of 2020, selected by Susan Thompson, associate curator at the Guggenheim Museum. She also participated in the Independent Scholar Fellowship at The Carr Center where she was mentored by Carrie Mae Weems. She earned an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA from Eastern Michigan University, with a concentration in photography.

Weaver recently presented a paper titled “How I Got Over: The Meta-Archive and other registers” at Black Portraitures VII hosted by Rutgers University. Most recently she has taken on the role of lead visual consultant, specializing in image theory and photography, for the Global Institute for Black Girls in Film and Media.

This project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

The U.S. is experiencing unprecedented levels of political polarization relative to the past few decades, especially in terms of affective polarization, or feelings of dislike and distrust towards members of the opposing political party. In this winter talk series, we will hear from experts across disciplines (social psychology, political science, sociology, communication) in order to better understand why political polarization is so high and what, if anything, can we do about it.

About the Artist
Ricky Weaver is an image-based artist, theorist, and mother, born in Ypsilanti, MI.

She is currently teaching at ArtCenter College of Art and Design in Pasadena, CA as a fellow for the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design. Weaver is represented by David Klein Gallery and has shown work at Art Miami, the Havana Biennale, Sofa Expo, and more. Her work has been acquired by institutions like the Wedge Collection and published in Aperture’s As We Rise: Photography from the Black Atlantic.

Weaver was named one of LensCulture's Critics Choice Artists of 2020, selected by Susan Thompson, associate curator at the Guggenheim Museum. She also participated in the Independent Scholar Fellowship at The Carr Center where she was mentored by Carrie Mae Weems. She earned an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA from Eastern Michigan University, with a concentration in photography.

Weaver recently presented a paper titled “How I Got Over: The Meta-Archive and other registers” at Black Portraitures VII hosted by Rutgers University. Most recently she has taken on the role of lead visual consultant, specializing in image theory and photography, for the Global Institute for Black Girls in Film and Media.

This project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

Location: Rackham Graduate School (Horace H.)
Organized By: Latina/o Studies

On May 5th, 1991, people took to the streets of Washington D.C.’s Mount Pleasant neighborhood to protest the police shooting of Daniel Gomez, a young man from El Salvador. Through testimony, song, poetry, and street theatre, La Manplesa: An Uprising Remembered weaves together the collective memory of one of D.C.’s first barrios, and dives into the roots of the ‘91 rebellion. As people across the world take to the streets to demand an end to police brutality, the film honors the largely untold stories that have come before us, and explores how artists prompt us to remember what we still have to fight for.

This student-curated exhibit focuses on the theme of secrecy and how it has shaped our inquiry into how the family, as an institution and an ideal at the heart of debates about American identity and national belonging, has changed over time.

The materials gathered here represented various ways in which cultural concepts of family evolved in both public and private ways.

Critical Conversations is a monthly lunchtime series organized by the English Department Associate Chair’s Office. Each Critical Conversations session will feature four to five panelists who will give flash talks about their current work as related to a broad theme.

We see these sessions as an important hub for rigorous and collaborative thinking, giving our Michigan community the chance to share and learn about each other's work on a monthly basis. Now more than ever, our community is in need of the encouragement and inspiration we find in one another’s work, and we see Critical Conversations as a crucial opportunity to connect with colleagues and ideas in our disconnected circumstances. We hope you will join us in Winter 2023!

A specialist in twentieth-century American politics, urban history, civil rights, and race, he is the author of four books, among them The Origins of the Urban Crisis: Race and Inequality in Postwar Detroit (1996) and Sweet Land of Liberty: The Forgotten Struggle for Civil Rights in the North (2008). He is a frequent media commentator on modern American history, politics, civil rights, and urban policy.

Angela D. Dillard is Richard A. Meisler Collegiate Professor of Afroamerican and African Studies, History, and in the Residential College at the University of Michigan. Her publications include Faith in the City: Preaching Radical Social Change in Detroit (2007) and A Different Shade of Freedom: The Making of Civil Rights Conservatism in America (forthcoming). In addition to serving as chair of the History Department she is also co-PI on the Michigan-Mellon Egalitarian Metropolis project.

Matthew D. Lassiter is Arthur F. Thurnau Professor of History and of Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Michigan. His publications include Detroit Under Fire: Police Violence, Crime Politics, and the Struggle for Racial Justice in the Civil Rights Era (2021) and The Suburban Crisis: White America and the War on Drugs (forthcoming).

Ricky Weaver is an image-based artist, theorist, and mother, born in Ypsilanti, MI. Her art and theory are centered around the lexicon generated through black women's everyday practices, dark sousveillance, and images as objects that alchemize the archive on a quantum level. She is currently teaching at ArtCenter College of Art and Design in Pasadena, CA as a fellow for the Association of Independent Colleges of Art and Design. Weaver is represented by David Klein Gallery and has shown work at Art Miami, the Havana Biennale, Sofa Expo, and more. Her work has been acquired by institutions like the Wedge Collection and published in Aperture’s As We Rise: Photography from the Black Atlantic.

Weaver was named one of LensCulture's Critics Choice Artists of 2020, selected by Susan Thompson, associate curator at the Guggenheim Museum. She also participated in the Independent Scholar Fellowship at The Carr Center where she was mentored by Carrie Mae Weems. She earned an MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art and a BFA from Eastern Michigan University, with a concentration in photography.

Weaver recently presented a paper titled “How I Got Over: The Meta-Archive and other registers” at Black Portraitures VII hosted by Rutgers University. Most recently she has taken on the role of lead visual consultant, specializing in image theory and photography, for the Global Institute for Black Girls in Film and Media.

This project is made possible by a grant from the Mellon Foundation as part of the Institute for the Humanities' multi-year High Stakes Art initiative.

Kaleigh Wilder Trio (April 25, 2023 7:30pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/107761 107761-21816457@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Tuesday, April 25, 2023 7:30pm
Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: University Musical Society (UMS)

Baritone saxophonist Kaleigh Wilder has performed around the world, led her first album release, and now has plans to release two more albums as a bandleader with a New York-based record label—among several other ongoing projects.

Musicians Kaleigh Wilder, Ben Hall, Jaribu Shahid, and dancer Alexandria Davis will explore Afro-diasporic narratives that traverse oceans and endure attempts at erasure. Using rhythm, movement, timbre, melody, and cacophony, The Story Cuts Across What the Map Cuts Up celebrates what could not be subjugated or relegated to the margins. A continuous performance of original compositions, improvisations, and movement invites the audience to imagine not the physical map, but the stories that connect and produce our futures.

This performance is a “Pay What You Wish” event. That means that you can decide how much you would like to pay to attend. In most venues, an event like this would cost around $15-25 per person. Please enter the price you would like to pay per ticket, and the number of tickets you wish to reserve.

Location: William Clements Library
Organized By: William L. Clements Library

As we celebrate the library’s centennial, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.

It builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.

Location: William Clements Library
Organized By: William L. Clements Library

As we celebrate the library’s centennial, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.

It builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.

Location: Off Campus Location
Organized By: Prison Creative Arts Project, The

Over the last five decades the City of Detroit has felt the crisis of mass incarceration first-hand and most acutely. Historian Heather Ann Thompson will discuss the origins of this crisis nationally and locally, its lived impact on city residents as well as on the city itself. From this history, she argues, we can better understand not only why this is the civil and human rights crisis of the 21st century, but what it will take to undo it.

This evening event is free for members and free with museum admission for non-members.

5-6 p.m. Prior to the program, view the *Humanize the Numbers* exhibition on display now in the Community Gallery

6-8 p.m. Lecture in the Booth Auditorium

Dr. Heather Ann Thompson is a native Detroiter and historian on faculty of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor in the departments of Afro-American and African Studies, History, and the Residential College.

Thompson has published numerous books and has written extensively on the history of policing, mass incarceration and the current criminal justice system for The New York Times, Newsweek, Time, The Atlantic, Salon, Dissent, NBC, New Labor Forum, The Daily Beast, and The Huffington Post, as well as for the top publications in her field.

Location: William Clements Library
Organized By: William L. Clements Library

As we celebrate the library’s centennial, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.

It builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.

Building on a Century of Collecting at the Clements Library (June 12, 2023 12:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/107840 107840-21817529@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Monday, June 12, 2023 12:00pm
Location: William Clements Library
Organized By: William L. Clements Library

As we celebrate the library’s centennial, this exhibit is an attempt to answer a question asked often by visitors, how do you decide what to acquire to add to your collections.

It builds on the landmark publication of the library’s 75th anniversary, One Hundred and One Treasures From the Collections of the William L. Clements Library, edited by former library director John Dann. This exhibit—and its expanded online version—pairs items from 101 Treasures with related items that have for the most part been acquired since 1998. Those that were acquired earlier are items about which we’ve learned new things in the intervening 25 years.
