This series will explore the history of Black Islam and the experiences of Black Muslim communities in the Americas\, including North America\, Latin America\, and the Caribbean.\n \nFrom March 4th-18th\, you will have the opportunity to watch *Two Gods* (2020)\, a film by Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali\, on demand and for free. Pre-order your free tickets now: http://watch.eventive.org/gisctwogods\n\n---\n*Two Gods* is the story of Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in Newark\, New Jersey\, who takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives\, illustrating the complexities of everyday Muslim community life.\n\n​​Year: 2020 | Run Time: 82 minutes​​ | Language: English | Director: Zeshawn Ali | Producer: Aman Ali\n \nAn intimate documentary about faith\, renewal\, and healing\, *TWO GODS* follows a Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in New Jersey\, as he takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives. Inside a corner casket shop in East Orange\, laboring amid the sawdust and the long pine boxes\, casket makers work with mentors in the Islamic burial tradition. Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker who finds spiritual grounding in his work\, brings two boys from the local community under his tutelage\; 12-year-old Furquan and 17-year-old Naz\, neither of whom have fathers at home. Hanif teaches Furquan and Naz the practices of Islamic burial rituals as they assist him with his work. Having formerly served time in prison\, Hanif continues to grapple with past mistakes and new challenges\, while his faith and community helps him guide his young charges on their own paths toward healing and embracing life.\n \nShot in a striking black-and-white\, *TWO GODS* explores the juxtaposition of grief and the rituals of death with the vibrancy and potential of adolescence. The documentary turns an empathetic lens on Muslim American stories\, ultimately crafting a moving portrait of both the intimate moments and the complexities of the everyday Muslim American experience.\n---\n\nOn March 17th\, GISC will host *Two Gods* filmmakers Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali for a filmmaker Q&A. This conversation will be moderated by local Detroit filmmaker and GISC Fellow Razi Jafri. RSVP: http://bit.ly/GISCTwoGods\n \nJoin us for the rest of the 'Black Islam in the Americas' series:\n \nOn March 29that 1:00 PM ET\, GISC will host Dr. Su'ad Abdul Khabeer and Dr. Rasul Miller for a lecture on Black Islam in the Americas\, with a focus on the United States. Dr. Su’ad Abdul Khabeer is a scholar\, artist\, activist\, and author of* Muslim Cool: Race\, Religion\, and Hip Hop in the United States* (2016). She is an associate professor of American Culture and Director of the Arab and Muslim American Studies program at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from Princeton University\, is a graduate of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University\, and completed the Islamic Studies diploma program of the Institute at Abu Nour University (Damascus). In her most recent work\, Umi’s Archive\, Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines the intersections of official history and the untold stories of Black women and Black Muslims through the lens of her mother’s life. Umi means mother in Arabic\, and Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines her mother’s photographic and literary archives\, and so the digital exhibition series is Umi's Archive. The project sees everyday Black women as people who know things we all need to know. Dr. Rasul Miller's work looks into Black Muslim communities in the Atlantic world\, Black radicalism and its impact on social and cultural movements in the twentieth-century U.S.\, Black internationalism\, and West African intellectual history. Dr. Miller's current book project\, *Black Muslim Cosmopolitanism: The Global Character of New York City's Black Muslim Movements*\, examines the Black internationalist origins of early twentieth-century Black Sunni Muslim congregations in and around New York City\, and the cultural and political orientations that characterized subsequent communities of Black Muslims in the U.S. who built robust\, transnational networks as they actively engaged traditions and communities of Muslims on the African continent.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

Map ≠ Territory deconstructs maps that have been used to subjugate\, appropriate\, and oppress\, as well as the maps that counter that power through emancipation and advocacy. The exhibit critically engages with materials that span from the colonial era to modern-day Detroit.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.

Please review The Ark’s current COVID-related information before attending a show.*\n\nIn the months following the release of his critically acclaimed album “Bone Structure\,” Nashville-based singer-songwriter\, Ron Pope\, felt lost. A hometown tornado and a pandemic will do that to a person. Unfortunately for Pope\, tangled amongst the rubble was an album release and months of touring that abruptly came to a halt. For an album that he penned while reflecting on his own mortality\, it seemed almost apropos. \n\nWhile his career was put on pause\, he effectively became a stay-at-home dad. Slowly\, his priorities shifted as he realized that not only could this time be looked at as a gift\, but it could be used as an opportunity to reimagine what his life could look like in the future. Why sit in the same formulaic cycle? Why seek validation from places that didn’t care to give it? \n\nIn asking these questions of himself\, he realized that the community his music created was also seeking answers to similar questions. Weekly online shows allowed free conversations and inspired creativity. Pulling from unreleased songs and reimagined fan favorites\, Pope decided to embark on a year of connecting and leaning into the community that has supported him all along.\n\nIt was time to let go of preconceived notions about what was expected of him. It was time to take a step back and focus on what really mattered. It was time to rebuild. \n\nAfter completely scrapping early recording sessions for his album Bone Structure (March 6\, 2020)\, Pope set out on a new path\, crafting incredibly candid songs directed squarely at his newborn daughter. Some songs speak to her directly and muse on the experience of fatherhood\, while others reflect on a personal experience that has a lesson or a moral. Pope's 2017 release\, \"Work\,\" drew comparisons to Tom Petty and Bruce Springsteen\, while also refusing to put him squarely into one category. Uncompromising and relentless\, Pope has evolved into one of the top grossing independent acts in the business while garnering a legion of devoted fans the world over. Taking the industry-road-less-traveled and holding fiercely to his independence has proven fruitful for Pope\; to date\, he has sold out shows on three continents and in more than 20 countries\, sold over 2 million digital tracks\, has nearly half a billion streams on Spotify\, 880 million plays on Pandora\, 150 million views on YouTube\, and has generally crushed every metric used to measure what is possible for most independent artists. \n\nPope is currently in the studio recording his next album\, which is set to be released in the spring of 2022. \n\n*Ron Pope – Meet & Greet Package *\n-One ticket\n-VIP early entry into the venue\n-Exclusive meet & greet with Ron Pope\n-Personal photograph with Ron Pope\n-Private and intimate pre-show acoustic performance by Ron Pope\n-Limited edition\, tour poster autographed by Ron Pope\n-Specially designed tote bag\n-Official meet & greet laminate\n\nLimited availability\n \nFor questions regarding the VIP packages\, please reach out to info@future-beat.com.\n\nVIP merchandise will be distributed at the show.

This series will explore the history of Black Islam and the experiences of Black Muslim communities in the Americas\, including North America\, Latin America\, and the Caribbean.\n \nFrom March 4th-18th\, you will have the opportunity to watch *Two Gods* (2020)\, a film by Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali\, on demand and for free. Pre-order your free tickets now: http://watch.eventive.org/gisctwogods\n\n---\n*Two Gods* is the story of Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in Newark\, New Jersey\, who takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives\, illustrating the complexities of everyday Muslim community life.\n\n​​Year: 2020 | Run Time: 82 minutes​​ | Language: English | Director: Zeshawn Ali | Producer: Aman Ali\n \nAn intimate documentary about faith\, renewal\, and healing\, *TWO GODS* follows a Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in New Jersey\, as he takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives. Inside a corner casket shop in East Orange\, laboring amid the sawdust and the long pine boxes\, casket makers work with mentors in the Islamic burial tradition. Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker who finds spiritual grounding in his work\, brings two boys from the local community under his tutelage\; 12-year-old Furquan and 17-year-old Naz\, neither of whom have fathers at home. Hanif teaches Furquan and Naz the practices of Islamic burial rituals as they assist him with his work. Having formerly served time in prison\, Hanif continues to grapple with past mistakes and new challenges\, while his faith and community helps him guide his young charges on their own paths toward healing and embracing life.\n \nShot in a striking black-and-white\, *TWO GODS* explores the juxtaposition of grief and the rituals of death with the vibrancy and potential of adolescence. The documentary turns an empathetic lens on Muslim American stories\, ultimately crafting a moving portrait of both the intimate moments and the complexities of the everyday Muslim American experience.\n---\n\nOn March 17th\, GISC will host *Two Gods* filmmakers Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali for a filmmaker Q&A. This conversation will be moderated by local Detroit filmmaker and GISC Fellow Razi Jafri. RSVP: http://bit.ly/GISCTwoGods\n \nJoin us for the rest of the 'Black Islam in the Americas' series:\n \nOn March 29that 1:00 PM ET\, GISC will host Dr. Su'ad Abdul Khabeer and Dr. Rasul Miller for a lecture on Black Islam in the Americas\, with a focus on the United States. Dr. Su’ad Abdul Khabeer is a scholar\, artist\, activist\, and author of* Muslim Cool: Race\, Religion\, and Hip Hop in the United States* (2016). She is an associate professor of American Culture and Director of the Arab and Muslim American Studies program at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from Princeton University\, is a graduate of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University\, and completed the Islamic Studies diploma program of the Institute at Abu Nour University (Damascus). In her most recent work\, Umi’s Archive\, Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines the intersections of official history and the untold stories of Black women and Black Muslims through the lens of her mother’s life. Umi means mother in Arabic\, and Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines her mother’s photographic and literary archives\, and so the digital exhibition series is Umi's Archive. The project sees everyday Black women as people who know things we all need to know. Dr. Rasul Miller's work looks into Black Muslim communities in the Atlantic world\, Black radicalism and its impact on social and cultural movements in the twentieth-century U.S.\, Black internationalism\, and West African intellectual history. Dr. Miller's current book project\, *Black Muslim Cosmopolitanism: The Global Character of New York City's Black Muslim Movements*\, examines the Black internationalist origins of early twentieth-century Black Sunni Muslim congregations in and around New York City\, and the cultural and political orientations that characterized subsequent communities of Black Muslims in the U.S. who built robust\, transnational networks as they actively engaged traditions and communities of Muslims on the African continent.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

This talk\, however\, argues for the unique importance of studying bureaucracy as a site of ethical laboring. Tracing the specific\, surprising and sophisticated ways in which God participates in everyday bureaucratic practice in an Irrigation Department in Pakistan\, it shows how bureaucrats’ attempts to be “good Muslims” can produce “good bureaucrats.” The yield is a deeper understanding of how state officials experience and navigate the pull of the ‘private’ in everyday ‘public’ waterswork\, and how this in turn determines the service they provide. In foregrounding ethical laboring\, the talk brings together the anthropology of bureaucracy\, ethics\, and secularity towards newer configurations.\n\nThis is a part of the Research Center for Group Dynamics (RCGD) Winter 2022 Series - \"Water Ways: New Social Science\, Science Studies\, and Environmental Approaches to Water\"\n\nThis is also a part of the class Anthrcul 558 section 002 UID:89834-21665912@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/89834 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Anthropology,climate,Environment,environmental,Ethics,Free,Global And Transnational,International,Law,Middle East,Middle East Studies,Multidisciplinary Design,Muslim,Pakistan,Political Science,Politics,Religion,Religious Studies,Research,Social Sciences,Sociology LOCATION:Institute For Social Research - 6050 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220216T233454 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220314T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220314T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Stitched Together DESCRIPTION:Special opening day hours & chat with quilters: 2-4pm on Sunday\, March 6th.\n\nTo celebrate the U-M Faculty Women’s Club 100th anniversary\, its Quilting Section proudly presents examples of the many traditional and non-traditional quilts their members have designed and created.

However\, directly communicating potentially high-dimensional data about complex tasks can be intractable. In this talk\, I show that robotic systems are capable of learning and acting on low-dimensional task representations in real-time. I introduce the use of spatial distributions as a concise representation of temporal trajectories to better describe tasks in human-robot collaboration and learning. In combination with information-theoretic controllers\, I show that these spatial representations can be used in real-time control paradigms and result in successful task performance. In addition\, I discuss how these motion representations can be used to design intuitive interfaces for real-time\, dynamic human-swarm collaboration. Furthermore\, I explore how these representations can be learned from data to facilitate robot learning\, e.g.\, learning task representations directly from human demonstrations. I illustrate the efficacy of distribution-based representations for real-time task control using results from simulation examples and experiments\, including field tests with a swarm of rovers. \n\nBIO:\nAhalya is currently a postdoctoral fellow at EPFL with Professor Aude Billard.

RAAAS uses a risk-based approach to assess compliance with trade laws and regulations\, while collaborating with other U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) components\, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement/Homeland Security Investigations and Partner Government Agencies (PGAs)\, as appropriate. Through audits and other professional services\, CBP protects government revenue\, provides informed compliance to the trade community while presenting a deterrent to future violators\, protects domestic industries from unfair trade practices\, and facilitates legitimate trade. RAAAS conducts audits\, including Focused Assessments\, and other professional services.\n\nAudits generally have targeted audit objectives and are compliance driven. Audits involve data analysis and risk assessment procedures to scope the audit. Depending on the audit objective\, the audit may or may not include an assessment of the importer’s internal control over CBP compliance. Audits are often based on areferral to RAAAS. Audits also include the Focused Assessment Program\, which is a comprehensive audit that uses a risk-based approach to determine if the importer represents an acceptable risk to CBP.\n\nOther Professional Services (i.e.\, nonaudit services) are engagements not performed as audits but that require assistance consistent with auditors’ skills and expertise. Examples include (not all-inclusive): \n\nRisk Analysis and Survey Assessments (RASAs) are a collaborative\, multifaceted process based on cooperation\, information sharing\, and joint decision making between the Office of Trade\, other components of CBP\, other Department of HomelandSecurity entities\, and/or Partner Government Agencies\, as appropriate.RASAs are performed under the authority of 19 United States Code (U.S.C.)§1509(a).\n \nImporter Self-Assessment (ISA) Evaluations are conducted to support CBP’s ISA partnership program. ISAs include an evaluation of the applicant’s internal control design to assess the applicant’s readiness to assume the responsibilities of the ISA program.\n\nFor more information\, please go to www.cbp.gov/trade\n UID:93317-21702624@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/93317 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES: LOCATION: CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220329T123102 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220314T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220314T150000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Internship Lab DESCRIPTION:*RSVP for this program.

Südhof\, M.D. DESCRIPTION:Thomas C. Südhof is a Nobel-prize winning biochemist at Stanford University.\n\nThe Südhof laboratory studies how synapses form in the brain and how their properties are specified\, which together organize neural circuits. Moreover\, the Südhof laboratory examines how synapses become dysfunctional in neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric disorders to pave the way for better therapies.\n\nDr. Südhof has had a remarkably productive career studying the molecular mechanisms controlling synaptic transmission and synaptogenesis. He is perhaps best known for his work identifying the core molecular machinery controlling the fusion of synaptic vesicles with the plasma membrane\, including the calcium sensor synaptotagmin. His group also discovered neurexins and neuroligins\, which are important cell-surface proteins controlling the specificity synapse formation. \n\nIn recent years\, his group and collaborators have explored the molecular basis of several human diseases\, including Alzheimer’s disease\, schizophrenia and autism. \n\nDr. Südhof has been an HHMI Investigator since 1986 and is the recipient of many awards recognizing his fundamental contributions to neuroscience and cell/molecular biology--among them\, induction into the National Academy of Sciences (2002)\, the Kavli Prize (2010)\, the Albert Lasker Award (2013) as well as the 2013 Nobel Prize in Physiology.\n\nAfter Dr. Südhof’s seminar there will be a reception in the West Atrium of the Biological Sciences Building under the life-size model of a pterosaur (Quetzalcoatlus northropi\, the largest known flying animal to ever live on earth). \n\nPlease join us on March 14 for what will no doubt be a fascinating talk and an opportunity to meet with Dr. Südhof and members of the U-M science community.\n\n\nConnell Lecture\nThis special event is possible through an endowment from Priscilla Connell's family as a memorial to her career as a nature photographer.

In what can only be characterized as a “Palestine Exception to free speech\,” academics\, students\, and others who speak out for Palestinian rights are routinely falsely accused\, investigated\, surveilled\, harassed\, and sometimes suffer severe consequences to their reputations and careers. Right-wing efforts to dictate what academics can and can’t say\, teach\, or write are proliferating. Is this a “new McCarthyism”? What is at stake? What can we learn from Palestinians and their allies whose histories\, narratives\, and experiences are constantly denied\, erased\, and criminalized\, even in academia? How can we ensure that universities can be bastions of academic freedom\, and not enforcers of corporate\, lobbyist\, and governmental litmus tests?\n\nPalmer Commons\, Forum Hall\n100 Washtenaw Avenue\nAnn Arbor\, MI\n\nvia Zoom Webinar\n\nvia Livestream\n\nVisit https:facultysenate.umich.edu for details.

While the spectrum\, angular distribution\, and intensity of this signal is consistent with the predictions of annihilating dark matter matter particles\, it has also been suggested that these gamma rays could potentially be produced by a large population of millisecond pulsars.

It includes the character of Daughter Zion\, a feminized personification of Jerusalem who is subjected to sexual violence. While the Bible contains many stories of raped women\, Daughter Zion is almost alone among female victims in having a ‘voice” in the text. As a result\, there is a pronounced tendency to treat her as an ideal and praiseworthy victim/survivor. However\, this representation is both problematic and contradicted by her own speeches. In response\, this talk describes Daughter Zion as a “gritty” survivor with a fuzzy\, messy\, and icky survival story. This survival story comes into focus when read together with other survivor texts\, including Jennifer Patterson’s Queering Sexual Violence\, Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha’s Care Work: Dreaming Disability Justice\, and Carmen Maria Machado’s In the Dream House. Together\, these texts form a “survivor archive” that changes the way we encounter biblical and nonbiblical sexual violence.

Inside a corner casket shop in East Orange\, laboring amid the sawdust and the long pine boxes\, casket makers work with mentors in the Islamic burial tradition. Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker who finds spiritual grounding in his work\, brings two boys from the local community under his tutelage\; 12-year-old Furquan and 17-year-old Naz\, neither of whom have fathers at home. Hanif teaches Furquan and Naz the practices of Islamic burial rituals as they assist him with his work. Having formerly served time in prison\, Hanif continues to grapple with past mistakes and new challenges\, while his faith and community helps him guide his young charges on their own paths toward healing and embracing life.\n \nShot in a striking black-and-white\, *TWO GODS* explores the juxtaposition of grief and the rituals of death with the vibrancy and potential of adolescence. The documentary turns an empathetic lens on Muslim American stories\, ultimately crafting a moving portrait of both the intimate moments and the complexities of the everyday Muslim American experience.\n---\n\nOn March 17th\, GISC will host *Two Gods* filmmakers Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali for a filmmaker Q&A.

Dr. Su’ad Abdul Khabeer is a scholar\, artist\, activist\, and author of* Muslim Cool: Race\, Religion\, and Hip Hop in the United States* (2016). She is an associate professor of American Culture and Director of the Arab and Muslim American Studies program at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from Princeton University\, is a graduate of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University\, and completed the Islamic Studies diploma program of the Institute at Abu Nour University (Damascus). In her most recent work\, Umi’s Archive\, Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines the intersections of official history and the untold stories of Black women and Black Muslims through the lens of her mother’s life. Umi means mother in Arabic\, and Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines her mother’s photographic and literary archives\, and so the digital exhibition series is Umi's Archive. The project sees everyday Black women as people who know things we all need to know. Dr. Rasul Miller's work looks into Black Muslim communities in the Atlantic world\, Black radicalism and its impact on social and cultural movements in the twentieth-century U.S.\, Black internationalism\, and West African intellectual history. Dr. Miller's current book project\, *Black Muslim Cosmopolitanism: The Global Character of New York City's Black Muslim Movements*\, examines the Black internationalist origins of early twentieth-century Black Sunni Muslim congregations in and around New York City\, and the cultural and political orientations that characterized subsequent communities of Black Muslims in the U.S. who built robust\, transnational networks as they actively engaged traditions and communities of Muslims on the African continent.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

Map ≠ Territory deconstructs maps that have been used to subjugate\, appropriate\, and oppress\, as well as the maps that counter that power through emancipation and advocacy. The exhibit critically engages with materials that span from the colonial era to modern-day Detroit.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.

In the brain\, areas that form a network with the dorsolateral striatum have been shown to be critical for the formation and execution of habits. In this talk\, I will outline our efforts to help understand how exactly the striatum participates in habits and how habits themselves might be detected and observed. First\, patterns of neural activity recorded in animals during learning show that the striatum represents habits with\, in part\, a burst of energy at the beginning of a behavior. We find that this activity causes behavior to be fast and vigorous\, with behavioral vigor emerging as a key defining characteristic of habits. The increased activity in the striatum also causes behavior to be insensitive to the value of the behavioral outcome\, a traditional measure of habits. However\, additional studies show that the outcome-value assay of habits is highly context-dependent\, thus casting doubt on how it can be used. Further studies test the question of whether this striatum activity works in a forward-planning manner to help behavior be optimal and adaptive\, or instead if it serves to allow animals to keep doing what has worked in the past. Initial evidence finds somewhat surprising support for the first possibility. Collectively\, the data presented will hopefully shine some new light into the process by which habits might best be studied in the lab as well further clarify the role that the striatum serves for habits.

In promulgating constitutions and then allowing people to talk about them\, the CCP opened up political space for people to criticize the party\, the revolution\, and the constitution\, which they did in a variety of ways. They pressed authorities to clarify the meaning of words\, phrases\, and ideas in constitutions and proposed numerous suggestions for revision. From the very beginning many called out the Party for engaging in what the philosopher Harry Frankfurt called “bullshit.” Despite these reputational costs\, the CCP continues to make constitutions a critical element of its governing strategy. At the same time\, citizens continue to refer to constitutions in their contestations with the state despite knowing that its articles are not enforced. This talk examines both the bullshit element of constitutions as well as why they are useful for the CCP and citizens.\n \nNeil J. Diamant is the Walter E. Beach ’56 Chair in Political Science and Professor of Asian Law and Society at Dickinson College (Carlisle\, PA). In addition to \"Useful Bullshit: Constitutions in Chinese Politics and Society\" (Cornell University Press\, 2021)\, Diamant is the author of \"Revolutionizing the Family: Politics\, Love\, and Divorce in Urban and Rural China\, 1949-1968\" (University of California Press\, 2000)\, \"Embattled Glory: Veterans\, Military Families\, and the Politics of Patriotism in China\, 1949-2007\" (Rowman & Littlefield\, 2009)\, as well as the co-author of \"The Politics of Veteran Benefits in the 20th Century: A Comparative History\" (Cornell University Press\, 2020).

RAAAS uses a risk-based approach to assess compliance with trade laws and regulations\, while collaborating with other U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) components\, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement/Homeland Security Investigations and Partner Government Agencies (PGAs)\, as appropriate. Through audits and other professional services\, CBP protects government revenue\, provides informed compliance to the trade community while presenting a deterrent to future violators\, protects domestic industries from unfair trade practices\, and facilitates legitimate trade. RAAAS conducts audits\, including Focused Assessments\, and other professional services.\n\nAudits generally have targeted audit objectives and are compliance driven. Audits involve data analysis and risk assessment procedures to scope the audit. Depending on the audit objective\, the audit may or may not include an assessment of the importer’s internal control over CBP compliance. Audits are often based on areferral to RAAAS. Audits also include the Focused Assessment Program\, which is a comprehensive audit that uses a risk-based approach to determine if the importer represents an acceptable risk to CBP.\n\nOther Professional Services (i.e.\, nonaudit services) are engagements not performed as audits but that require assistance consistent with auditors’ skills and expertise. Examples include (not all-inclusive): \n\nRisk Analysis and Survey Assessments (RASAs) are a collaborative\, multifaceted process based on cooperation\, information sharing\, and joint decision making between the Office of Trade\, other components of CBP\, other Department of HomelandSecurity entities\, and/or Partner Government Agencies\, as appropriate.RASAs are performed under the authority of 19 United States Code (U.S.C.)§1509(a).\n \nImporter Self-Assessment (ISA) Evaluations are conducted to support CBP’s ISA partnership program.

An emerging technical avenue in this area is the conversion of vastly abundant renewable energy sources that can be harnessed and directed towards synthesis of traditionally fossil fuel-based products from atmospheric feedstocks like CO2. To this end\, our work establishes structure—function relationships for materials within the versatile classes of MX2 (M = Mo\, W\; X = S\, Se) and Chevrel-Phase (CP) MyMo6X8 (M = alkali\, alkaline\, transition or post-transition metal\; y = 0-4\; X = S\, Se\, Te) chalcogenides. The molybdenum sulfide structures from both families exhibit exceptional promise as CO2R catalysts. Furthermore\, we have identified the CP catalyst framework as being selective towards the electrochemical reduction of CO2 and CO to methanol (only major liquid-phase product) under applied potentials as mild as -0.4 V vs RHE. Reactivity toward electrochemical reduction of CO2 and CO to methanol is correlated with increased population of chalcogen states\, as confirmed via X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy. Overall\, this work seeks to unravel optimally reactive novel small-molecule reduction catalyst compositions. \nJesus Velazquez (University of California\, Davis) UID:84371-21623617@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/84371 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Biosciences,Chemistry,Science LOCATION:Chemistry Dow Lab - 1640 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220228T131826 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220315T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220315T173000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:Functional MRI 2021-22 Speaker Series with Kawin Setsompop\, Ph.D. DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nAdvances in MRI’s instrumentation\, data acquisition\, and reconstruction algorithms have opened up exciting opportunities for dramatic gains in MR image encoding efficiency\, particularly through the use of continuous volumetric data acquisition strategies.

Attendees learn from leading positive organizational scholars and connect with our community of academics\, students\, staff\, and leaders. \n\nAbout the talk: \n\nOne of the best things you can say about someone is that they continued to grow\, develop\, change\, improve\, and evolve throughout their life. Indeed\, personal growth is crucial if you want to become like that role model you most admire\, have more influence as a leader\, create better relationships with those joining you on a task\, and ultimately\, to bring positive change into our troubled world. \n\nIn September\, I achieved a lifelong goal of publishing a book\, The Power of Flexing\, that summarizes decades of research and teaching on this very topic. This talk brings that book alive by sharing some of the stories of people who have put growth prominently on their agenda\, suggesting key practices that facilitate growth for anyone anywhere\, and highlighting what companies can do to enable the growth journeys of their employees. \n\nAbout Ashford: \n\nSusan (Sue) Ashford is the Michael and Susan Jandernoa Professor in the Management and Organizations group at Michigan Ross. She served previously on the faculty of the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth College and received her MS and PhD degrees from Northwestern University. \n\nSue’s passion is using her teaching and research work to help people to be maximally effective in their work lives\, with an emphasis on self-leadership\, proactivity\, change from below\, and leadership and its development. She teaches across several programs at Ross\, in the Leading Women Executives program of the Corporate Leadership Center\, and for various companies. Sue recently published a book that lives out her passion entitled The Power of Flexing: How to Use Small Daily Experiments to Create Big Life-Changing Growth (Harper Collins Business\, 2021). \n\nSue is an award-winning scholar\, having published papers in the fields’ best journals in the areas of leadership development and leader effectiveness\, middle management voice and issue selling\, job insecurity\, and individual proactivity (e.g.\, self-management and feedback seeking). Her research has been summarized as advice for managers in the Harvard Business Review\, the Harvard Business Review blog\, New York Magazine\, and The Conversation. Sue is a Fellow of the Academy of Management and was awarded the prestigious Career Achievement Award for Distinguished Scholarly Contributions to Management by that Association in 2017. \n\nHost: \n\nDave M.

Sara will be giving the talk over zoom (info below) entitled \n\"A Planning Theory of Belief\" on Tuesday\, March 15 at 4:30pm EST.\n\nAbstract: What does it mean to hold a belief? Some ways of speaking suggest that to hold a belief is to have something in your mind: beliefs are things we acquire\, defend\, recover\, and so on (Abelson\, 1986). That is\, believing is a matter of being in a state of having a thing. I will argue for an alternative: believing is something we do. First\, I'll show that state-based accounts lead us into problems in two related areas: believing in between active occurrent episodes\, and incoherent sets of beliefs. I'll then present an analogy between belief and planning that fleshes out what it would mean for belief to be an activity.\n\nMore about Sara: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~skaron/index.html\n\nZoom Info [PLEASE NOTE PASSCODE]\n\nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://umich.zoom.us/j/91910722985\n\nMeeting ID: 919 1072 2985\nPasscode: MMP\nOne tap mobile\n+13126266799\,\,91910722985#\,\,\,\,*322120# US (Chicago)\n+16468769923\,\,91910722985#\,\,\,\,*322120# US (New York) UID:93061-21700225@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/93061 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Graduate,Philosophy LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220321T123119 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220315T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:2022 Firm Risk Management Expo Series (March) DESCRIPTION:APPLY HERE: https://morganstanley.tal.net/vx/lang-en-GB/candidate/postings/8723\n\nMorgan Stanley’s Firm Risk Management division invites sophomores from all majors to apply to our 2022 Firm Risk Management Expo Series. \n\nThe 2022 Expo Series encompasses three separate events where participants will have the opportunity to learn about the different areas of Firm Risk Management\, participate in case studies and network with the Firm Risk Management Representatives.

Inside a corner casket shop in East Orange\, laboring amid the sawdust and the long pine boxes\, casket makers work with mentors in the Islamic burial tradition. Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker who finds spiritual grounding in his work\, brings two boys from the local community under his tutelage\; 12-year-old Furquan and 17-year-old Naz\, neither of whom have fathers at home. Hanif teaches Furquan and Naz the practices of Islamic burial rituals as they assist him with his work. Having formerly served time in prison\, Hanif continues to grapple with past mistakes and new challenges\, while his faith and community helps him guide his young charges on their own paths toward healing and embracing life.\n \nShot in a striking black-and-white\, *TWO GODS* explores the juxtaposition of grief and the rituals of death with the vibrancy and potential of adolescence. The documentary turns an empathetic lens on Muslim American stories\, ultimately crafting a moving portrait of both the intimate moments and the complexities of the everyday Muslim American experience.\n---\n\nOn March 17th\, GISC will host *Two Gods* filmmakers Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali for a filmmaker Q&A. This conversation will be moderated by local Detroit filmmaker and GISC Fellow Razi Jafri.

Dr. Su’ad Abdul Khabeer is a scholar\, artist\, activist\, and author of* Muslim Cool: Race\, Religion\, and Hip Hop in the United States* (2016). She is an associate professor of American Culture and Director of the Arab and Muslim American Studies program at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from Princeton University\, is a graduate of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University\, and completed the Islamic Studies diploma program of the Institute at Abu Nour University (Damascus). In her most recent work\, Umi’s Archive\, Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines the intersections of official history and the untold stories of Black women and Black Muslims through the lens of her mother’s life. Umi means mother in Arabic\, and Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines her mother’s photographic and literary archives\, and so the digital exhibition series is Umi's Archive. The project sees everyday Black women as people who know things we all need to know. Dr. Rasul Miller's work looks into Black Muslim communities in the Atlantic world\, Black radicalism and its impact on social and cultural movements in the twentieth-century U.S.\, Black internationalism\, and West African intellectual history. Dr. Miller's current book project\, *Black Muslim Cosmopolitanism: The Global Character of New York City's Black Muslim Movements*\, examines the Black internationalist origins of early twentieth-century Black Sunni Muslim congregations in and around New York City\, and the cultural and political orientations that characterized subsequent communities of Black Muslims in the U.S. who built robust\, transnational networks as they actively engaged traditions and communities of Muslims on the African continent.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

Map ≠ Territory deconstructs maps that have been used to subjugate\, appropriate\, and oppress\, as well as the maps that counter that power through emancipation and advocacy. The exhibit critically engages with materials that span from the colonial era to modern-day Detroit.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.

How do we find a safe place\, protected from bad weather and circumstance\, in an era of floods\, fires\,violence\, abuse and pandemics? \n\nSnelling finds a route for escape by constructing big and small sculptural worlds\, private and public. \n\nSnelling is at U-M this winter term as the current Roman Witt Artist in Residence. During her residency\, the Institute for the Humanities Gallery and its Osterman Common Room will function as a “laboratory\,” or open studio\, where visitors can see the artist’s creative process as the installation evolves\, and the rooms change\, debunking any presumptive myth of permanence. \n\nSnelling’s pop aesthetic incorporates prefab objects\, bright colors\, light\, video\, and sound. The work is disarming in its exuberance\, reassuring us there is no such thing as a zombie under the bed\, while at the same time\, making room to process the very real and unsettling world in which we live. \n\nThrough workshops guided by Snelling\, U-M students and others from our local and outlying communities will create small-scale rooms or dwellings…”a room of one’s own” reflective of their personal feelings and ideas about home\, safety\, and dreams. \n\nThe experience of crafting together articulates the fundamental importance of our relationship to one another. The myriad of rooms will be displayed ongoing in the Osterman Common Room\, as well as becoming part of an installation on wheels\, a mobile unit meant to travel throughout town.\n\nThe mobile installation contemplates how we measure our sense of belonging\, or where we come from\, in a world of ongoing transitions and migrations. \n\nSnelling’s project fosters belonging despite all of the different ways we live and co-exist\, beyond structures and times of remoteness. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence and the power of our individual and collective imagination. \n\nIn her previous 2017 Institute for the Humanities Gallery exhibition *Here and There*\, Snelling pushed up against the challenges of economic inequities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. \n\n “The ongoing lack of affordable health care\, systematic racism\, class division\, economic downturn\, and the impacts of climate change all contribute to global poverty and housing issues…\,\" states Snelling. \"By working on this project with U-M students and communities regionally\, I hope to not only raise awareness of housing precarity but also be responsive together as a community...to the challenges facing our fellow citizens.”\n\n-Amanda Krugliak Arts Curator\n\nThe overall project *How To Build a Disaster Proof House* is curated by Amanda Krugiak\, Arts Curator and Assistant Director of Arts Programming at the Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with Chrisstina Hamilton\, Director of the Roman Witt Residency Program at the Stamps School. Tracey Snelling is the Stamps 2022 Roman Witt Artist in Residence.\n\nThe project has included workshops with groups across the U-M campus and further afield in the regional community at spaces including the Ann Arbor Art Center (A2AC)\, The Shelter Association of Washtenaw County at the Robert J. Delonis Center and Freighthouse Day Shelter\, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti\; and shelter for New Americans in Hamtramck. Thanks to U-M student and Delonis caseworker Alexzandra McCrum\, A2AC Gallery Director Ashley Miller\, Stamps MDes students and Stamps professor Nick Tobier for all of your guidance and help facilitating these outreach engagements.\n\nThe Disaster Proof mobile unit will be exhibited at the 60th Ann Arbor Film Festival in the Michigan Theater\, Tuesday March 22 - Sunday March 27\, 2022. Snelling’s short film A Poem is a City\, created in collaboration with Arthur Debert\, will be in competition as part of this year’s AAFF programming. A *Disaster Proof* community installation will appear at the Ann Arbor Art Center beginning in mid-April in connection with the A2AC Gallery’s inaugural exhibition\, *Sharing Space* (May 20 - July 8\, 2022).

In the process\, many of them have been arrested\, brutalized\, censored\, deported\, imprisoned\, or executed. Some were innocent victims of violent police or discriminatory policies.\n\nThe U-M Library’s Joseph A. Labadie Collection documents the history of social protest movements and marginalized political communities from the nineteenth century to the present. Established in 1911\, it is the oldest and largest public archive of its kind in the world.

Rankings reduce complex systems to ordered lists\, reflecting the ability of their elements to perform relevant functions\, and are being used from socioeconomic policy to knowledge extraction. A century of research has found regularities when temporal rank data is aggregated. Far less is known\, however\, about how rankings change in time. We explored the dynamics of 30 rankings in natural\, social\, economic\, and infrastructural systems\, comprising millions of elements and timescales from minutes to centuries. We found that the flux of new elements determines the stability of a ranking: for high flux only the top of the list is stable\, otherwise top and bottom are equally stable. We show that two basic mechanisms — displacement and replacement of elements — capture empirical ranking dynamics. The model uncovers two regimes of behavior\; fast and large rank changes\, or slow diffusion. Our results indicate that the balance between robustness and adaptability in ranked systems might be governed by simple random processes irrespective of system details.\n\nSpeaker bio\nCarlos Gershenson is a tenured\, full time research professor at the computer science department of the Instituto de Investigaciones en Matemáticas Aplicadas y en Sistemas at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM)\, where he leads the Self-organizing Systems Lab.

Sometimes\, they provide intentionally untrue\, extreme responses. Other times\, they skip items or fill in random patterns. We might be tempted to think this just introduces some random error into the estimates\, but these responses can have undue effects on estimates of the wellbeing and risk of minoritized populations\, such as racially and sexually minoritized youth. Over the past decade\, and with a focus on youth who identify as lesbian\, gay\, bisexual\, or questioning (LGBQ)\, a variety of data-validity screening techniques have been employed in attempts to scrub datasets of “mischievous responders\,” youths who systematically provide extreme and untrue responses to outcome items and who tend to falsely report being LGBQ. In this talk\, I discuss how mischievous responders—and invalid responses\, more generally—can perpetuate narratives of heightened risk\, rather than those of greater resilience in the face of obstacles\, for LGBQ youth. The talk will review several recent and ongoing studies using pre-registration and replication to test how invalid data affect LGBQ-heterosexual disparities on a wide range of outcomes. Key findings include: (1) potentially invalid responders inflate some (but not all) LGBQ–heterosexual disparities\; (2) this is true more among boys than girls\; (3) low-incidence outcomes (e.g.\, heroin use) are particularly susceptible to bias\; and (4) the method for detection and mitigation affects the estimates. Yet\, these methods do not solve all data validity concerns\, and their limitations are discussed. While the empirical focus of this talk is on LGBQ youth\, the issues and methods discussed are relevant to research on other minoritized groups and youth generally\, and speak to survey development\, methodology\, and the robustness and transparency of research.\n \nBiography: Joseph Cimpian\, Ph.D.\, is an Associate Professor of Economics and Education Policy at NYU Steinhardt and associated faculty at NYU Wagner. He earned a Ph.D. in Economics of Education from Stanford University. His research focuses on the use and development of novel and rigorous methods to study equity and policy\, particularly concerning language minorities\, gender\, and sexual minorities. One line of his research examines how “mischievous responders”—youth who provide extreme and untrue responses—can bias estimates of majority-minority group disparities. Some of his other work examines how beliefs about gender and math ability contribute to gender gaps in STEM. Prior to joining the faculty at NYU\, Cimpian was an Associate Professor and College of Education Distinguished Scholar at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His work has been funded by the Spencer Foundation\, the AERA Grants Board\, the National Science Foundation\, and the Institute of Education Sciences. His research has been published in some of the top journals in education\, psychology\, health\, and policy\, and has been featured by the New York Times\, the Washington Post\, NPR\, and Brookings\, among other outlets. He presented his work on English learner reclassification policies at a U.S. Congressional briefing and for the Council of Chief State School Officers. At NYU\, he teaches intermediate and advanced graduate courses on causal inference. He is currently an Editor of Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis\, and is on the editorial boards of several other education and psychology journals.

Register here https://sessions.studentlife.umich.edu/track/event/session/53857\n\nModern society sits at the intersection of two crucial questions: What does it mean when artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly governs our liberties? And what are the consequences for the people AI is biased against ? When MIT Media Lab researcher Joy Buolamwini discovers that most facial-recognition software does not accurately identify darker-skinned faces and the faces of women\, she delves into an investigation of widespread bias in algorithms. As it turns out\, artificial intelligence is not neutral\, and women are leading the charge to ensure our civil rights are protected.\n\nCoded Bias explores the fallout of Joy Buolamwini´s startling discovery that facial recognition does not see dark-skinned faces and women accurately\, and her journey to push for the first-ever legislation in the U.S. to govern against bias in the algorithms that impact us all.\n\nFilmmaker Shalini Kantayya’s Coded Bias premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival to critical acclaim. Coded Bias was broadcast nationally on the Emmy-award-winning series Independent Lens and began streaming on Netflix globally in Spring 2021. The film won a SIMA Award for Best Director and has been nominated for a Critics’ Choice Award\, and an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Documentary\, among others.

Yet qualitative research suggests that faculty of color (vs. white) may be more understanding of students of color’s specific problems and needs as people of color in academia (i.e.\, race-based empathy). This lack of race-based understanding from a faculty advisor could disadvantage graduate students of color by diminishing their mentorship experience and likelihood of success in graduate school\, ultimately perpetuating racial disparities in academia. Across two correlational studies (total N = 827)\, we demonstrate that graduate students of color perceive greater race-based empathy from a faculty advisor of color (vs. white)\, and we investigate how a lack of racial diversity among the faculty can exacerbate these unbalanced race-based empathy perceptions. Furthermore\, we demonstrate the detrimental effects of perceiving lower race-based empathy from a faculty mentor. Graduate students who perceived lower race-based empathy from their faculty advisors were less likely to think their advisor would provide effective mentoring and in turn\, reported worse academic and wellbeing outcomes.\n\nDesiree\n\nTitle:\nDo You See What I See? Evaluating the Consequences of Men Perceiving Subtle Gender Bias in Mixed-Gender Group Interactions\n\nAbstract:\nTo extend previous work on the effects of witnessing gender bias towards women in STEM\, the present research discusses the affective\, cognitive\, and behavioral implications of men perceiving subtle gender bias in mixed-gender STEM interactions. Across three studies\, STEM identified men were exposed to an interaction between STEM-identified students in which subtle gender bias occurred towards a woman target. Participants provided open-ended evaluations of the interaction\, which researchers later coded to determine whether participants mentioned the occurrence of subtle gender bias unprompted. Participants then completed measures assessing state/collective affect and cognitive/behavioral measures related to the individuals present during the interaction (e.g.\, target of bias\, perpetrator of bias\, and bystander to bias). Results and implications of this work are discussed.

As we all continue to navigate uncertainty and challenges that are inherent in the act of being human\, we benefit from and are grateful for diverse cultures and traditions across the globe. Collectively they have passed on a wide variety of contemplative practices that encourage reflection\, silence\, and centering into the present moment to help us cope and better respond. Engaging in contemplative practices support the individual\, by cultivating a sense of awareness and well-being\, and benefit society by enhancing one’s capacity to create connection and community\, and to become an agent of positive social change. There are many forms of contemplative practices\, including meditation. Mindfulness meditation is one form aimed to help focus our awareness on the present moment as it unfolds\, moment to moment\, without judgment. Research on mindfulness continues to find a wide range of benefits. In short\, Mindfulness may be viewed as cognitive training that bolsters our ability to handle stress\, poor mood\, and threat. It also increases our capacity to focus our attention on what is most important to us and to be more compassionate to ourselves and to others.\n\nOn Wednesdays from 12:15 - 12:45 pm\, we come together in community to practice this skill in an open and supportive virtual space. Whether you are new to mindfulness meditation or are an experienced practitioner each session is designed to offer guidance and support to assist you. Join this supportive community and experience the gift of present moment awareness.

Targeted therapies that are designed to block oncogenic signaling in tumor cells often yield substantial responses initially\, but fail to fully eradicate tumors. Among the major barriers to full cures is the cell-to-cell heterogeneity in drug response that arises even among genetically identical cells. Recent single-cell studies have revealed that such non-genetic heterogeneity can prime a rare\, transient subpopulation of tumor cells to be intrinsically drug-tolerant or render them cellular plasticity to adapt to drug-induced stresses dynamically. These therapy escapees constitute a reservoir of reversibly drug-tolerant cells\, which can then acquire more stably resistant phenotypes with continuous drug exposure\, ultimately driving tumor relapse. Although the emergence and consequences of such heterogeneity are widely recognized\, the molecular basis for such intrinsic and adaptive heterogeneities and their connections to variable states of drug sensitivity remain elusive. Furthermore\, the dynamic responses of these rare residual subpopulations are often obscured by fixed-time population-based measurements in most pre-clinical drug-response assays\, posing another challenge to the design of effective therapeutic strategies to block such drug resistance.\n\nThe focus of this dissertation is to address these gaps in our knowledge by quantifying and dissecting the origins of cell-to-cell heterogeneities in cancer drug response using systems biology approaches. First\, I developed new experimental and mathematical frameworks to evaluate time-dependent drug responses using probabilistic metrics that quantify drug-induced phenotypic events (i.e.\, cell death and division) at the single-cell level. These probabilistic metrics can reveal the time-varying drug responses and drug combination interactions in heterogeneous tumor cell populations. Therefore\, these metrics have important implications for designing efficacious combination therapies\, especially those designed to block drug-tolerant subpopulations of tumor cells.\n\nSecond\, this thesis investigates the molecular basis of cellular plasticity\, focusing on the activator protein 1 (AP-1) transcription factor family\, for their roles as key effectors of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. Using melanoma as a model system with dysregulated MAPK signaling\, I employed systems biology approaches that integrated data-driven modeling with multiplexed measurements to capture single-cell heterogeneity before and after MAPK inhibitor treatments in BRAF-mutated melanoma cells. I showed that the state of the AP-1 network plays a unifying role in explaining the intrinsic diversity of phenotypic states and adaptive responses to MAPK inhibitors. Perturbing the state of the AP-1 network through genetic depletion of specific AP-1 proteins\, or by MAPK inhibitors\, shifts cellular heterogeneity in a predictable fashion. Thus\, AP-1 may serve as a critical node for manipulating cellular plasticity with potential therapeutic implications. Together\, this thesis may facilitate future efforts for the rational design of therapeutic strategies that aim at overcoming the challenge of drug resistance arising due to tumor cell heterogeneity and plasticity.\n\nDate: Wednesday\, March 16\, 2022\nTime: 1:00 PM EST\nZoom: https://virginia.zoom.us/j/95703185539?pwd=WUhEUVRrZnkwK3ZlekhOTmFibVNXZz09 Passcode: brafmel316\nChair: Dr. Mohammad Fallahi-Sichani UID:92868-21697508@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92868 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,bme,engineering,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220331T123107 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220316T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220316T140000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Advancing Health Equity at CMS Part 1 DESCRIPTION:Join the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services on Wednesday\, March 16th at 1pm (EST) for Part 1 of our Advancing Health Equity series.

Some Medieval Armenian Monastic Complexes between Past and Present DESCRIPTION:IN-PERSON AND VIRTUAL EVENT\n \n Room 555\, Weiser Hall\n 500 Church Street\n Ann Arbor\, MI 48109\n \nOr participate virtually by registering in advance for the webinar: https://myumi.ch/z119W\n \n After registration\, you will receive a confirmation email with instructions on how to join the webinar.\n \n This talk discusses the significance of medieval Armenian coenobitic monasticism in the shaping of medieval landscapes and identities\, as well as looks into the present-day destruction of this cultural heritage and the creation of ‘invisible landscapes’ as a strategy of obliterating the memory of the Armenian presence and part of this identity. Dr. Pogossian will start by introducing the first period of the flourishing of coenobitic monasticism in Medieval Armenia from the 9th to the 11th centuries and explore this religious-cultural phenomenon in light of historical-political processes taking place at this time. She will present the connection between changes in the dynastic system of Armenia of this period and the foundation and diffusion of monasteries supported by the very same princes or kings who were the primary agents of this process.\n \n Pogossian suggests that the expansion of certain noble families (nakharars) into new territories\, or the efforts of certain branches within an extended family to highlight their presence in a specific area\, were paralleled by the establishment\, re-establishment\, and patronage of coenobitic monastic complexes by these élites. This is particularly evident in the case of the Bagratids\, Artsrunis\, and Syunis. Sources allow us to trace the various strategies adopted by some princes/kings for controlling newly acquired territories or consolidating their presence in other long-held lands. These strategies included the shaping of the landscape and inscribing a given noble family’s or its specific member’s presence therein via such massive landmarks requiring major investments as monastic complexes\, among others. The monasteries and the saints to whom they were dedicated\, not least some holy relics\, also became crucial identity markers. Some of these markers were mobile. When a great number of Armenian princes and their following migrated to the Byzantine Empire in the 11th century\, they often took with them such tangible or intangible identity markers as the devotion to a certain saint or his/her relics to Cappadocia and\, subsequently\, to Cilicia. Others\, however\, were by their very nature immovable and were meant to perpetrate the memory of their founders and of the Armenian presence on the landscape ‘forever’. Yet\, it was this desired permanence that unfortunately could spell the demise of these monuments with a concomitant destruction of that memory.\n \n The lecture will then close by looking into the modern and contemporary phenomenon of shaping the landscape yet once more by rendering it ‘invisible’ and what one may do to contest this phenomenon.\n \n Zaroui Pogossian is a specialist in medieval Armenian history\, culture\, and religion\, especially in relation to other peoples\, cultures\, and religions in the Near East and Asia Minor. She is Associate Professor of Byzantine Civilization at the University of Florence\, and the PI of the ERC Project ArmEn: Armenia Entangled: Connectivity and Cultural Encounters in Medieval Eurasia 9th-14th Centuries (Consolidator Grant). In her research\, Dr. Pogossian has explored such diverse topics as female asceticism and ascetic communities in early Christian Armenia\, the role of women in the spread of Christianity in Armenia\, monastic establishments\, and territory control\, as well as monasteries in an inter-religious perspective. She has contributed significantly to the study of apocalyptic traditions in Armenia\, especially between the 11th and 13th centuries\, including a focus on inter-religious polemic hidden in these texts.\n \n Her critical edition\, with comments and a thorough historical study of Agat‘angel\, “On the End of the World\,” an anonymous Armenian apocalyptic text\, is forthcoming. Pogossian is the author of a book acclaimed by reviewers\, \"The Letter of Love and Concord\" (Brill\, 2011)\, as well as numerous articles and book reviews. She has been the recipient of several prestigious fellowships\, such as from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation (University of Tübingen)\, Käte Hamburger Collegium at the Center for Religious Studies: Study of the Dynamics in the History of Religions (University of Bochum) and the International Consortium for Research in the Humanities: Fate\, Freedom and Prognostication - Strategies for Coping with the Future in East Asia and Europe (University of Erlangen). She is on the editorial board of the online journal Entangled Religions and is one of the co-founders and general editors of a book series Eastern Christia Cultures in Contact (Brepols editors).\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us at caswebinars@umich.edu.

How do we find a safe place\, protected from bad weather and circumstance\, in an era of floods\, fires\,violence\, abuse and pandemics? \n\nSnelling finds a route for escape by constructing big and small sculptural worlds\, private and public. \n\nSnelling is at U-M this winter term as the current Roman Witt Artist in Residence. During her residency\, the Institute for the Humanities Gallery and its Osterman Common Room will function as a “laboratory\,” or open studio\, where visitors can see the artist’s creative process as the installation evolves\, and the rooms change\, debunking any presumptive myth of permanence. \n\nSnelling’s pop aesthetic incorporates prefab objects\, bright colors\, light\, video\, and sound. The work is disarming in its exuberance\, reassuring us there is no such thing as a zombie under the bed\, while at the same time\, making room to process the very real and unsettling world in which we live. \n\nThrough workshops guided by Snelling\, U-M students and others from our local and outlying communities will create small-scale rooms or dwellings…”a room of one’s own” reflective of their personal feelings and ideas about home\, safety\, and dreams. \n\nThe experience of crafting together articulates the fundamental importance of our relationship to one another. The myriad of rooms will be displayed ongoing in the Osterman Common Room\, as well as becoming part of an installation on wheels\, a mobile unit meant to travel throughout town.\n\nThe mobile installation contemplates how we measure our sense of belonging\, or where we come from\, in a world of ongoing transitions and migrations. \n\nSnelling’s project fosters belonging despite all of the different ways we live and co-exist\, beyond structures and times of remoteness. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence and the power of our individual and collective imagination. \n\nIn her previous 2017 Institute for the Humanities Gallery exhibition *Here and There*\, Snelling pushed up against the challenges of economic inequities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. \n\n “The ongoing lack of affordable health care\, systematic racism\, class division\, economic downturn\, and the impacts of climate change all contribute to global poverty and housing issues…\,\" states Snelling. \"By working on this project with U-M students and communities regionally\, I hope to not only raise awareness of housing precarity but also be responsive together as a community...to the challenges facing our fellow citizens.”\n\n-Amanda Krugliak Arts Curator\n\nThe overall project *How To Build a Disaster Proof House* is curated by Amanda Krugiak\, Arts Curator and Assistant Director of Arts Programming at the Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with Chrisstina Hamilton\, Director of the Roman Witt Residency Program at the Stamps School. Tracey Snelling is the Stamps 2022 Roman Witt Artist in Residence.\n\nThe project has included workshops with groups across the U-M campus and further afield in the regional community at spaces including the Ann Arbor Art Center (A2AC)\, The Shelter Association of Washtenaw County at the Robert J. Delonis Center and Freighthouse Day Shelter\, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti\; and shelter for New Americans in Hamtramck. Thanks to U-M student and Delonis caseworker Alexzandra McCrum\, A2AC Gallery Director Ashley Miller\, Stamps MDes students and Stamps professor Nick Tobier for all of your guidance and help facilitating these outreach engagements.\n\nThe Disaster Proof mobile unit will be exhibited at the 60th Ann Arbor Film Festival in the Michigan Theater\, Tuesday March 22 - Sunday March 27\, 2022. Snelling’s short film A Poem is a City\, created in collaboration with Arthur Debert\, will be in competition as part of this year’s AAFF programming. A *Disaster Proof* community installation will appear at the Ann Arbor Art Center beginning in mid-April in connection with the A2AC Gallery’s inaugural exhibition\, *Sharing Space* (May 20 - July 8\, 2022).

This series will explore the history of Black Islam and the experiences of Black Muslim communities in the Americas\, including North America\, Latin America\, and the Caribbean.\n \nFrom March 4th-18th\, you will have the opportunity to watch *Two Gods* (2020)\, a film by Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali\, on demand and for free. Pre-order your free tickets now: http://watch.eventive.org/gisctwogods\n\n---\n*Two Gods* is the story of Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in Newark\, New Jersey\, who takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives\, illustrating the complexities of everyday Muslim community life.\n\n​​Year: 2020 | Run Time: 82 minutes​​ | Language: English | Director: Zeshawn Ali | Producer: Aman Ali\n \nAn intimate documentary about faith\, renewal\, and healing\, *TWO GODS* follows a Muslim casket maker and ritual body washer in New Jersey\, as he takes two young men under his wing to teach them how to live better lives. Inside a corner casket shop in East Orange\, laboring amid the sawdust and the long pine boxes\, casket makers work with mentors in the Islamic burial tradition. Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker who finds spiritual grounding in his work\, brings two boys from the local community under his tutelage\; 12-year-old Furquan and 17-year-old Naz\, neither of whom have fathers at home. Hanif teaches Furquan and Naz the practices of Islamic burial rituals as they assist him with his work. Having formerly served time in prison\, Hanif continues to grapple with past mistakes and new challenges\, while his faith and community helps him guide his young charges on their own paths toward healing and embracing life.\n \nShot in a striking black-and-white\, *TWO GODS* explores the juxtaposition of grief and the rituals of death with the vibrancy and potential of adolescence. The documentary turns an empathetic lens on Muslim American stories\, ultimately crafting a moving portrait of both the intimate moments and the complexities of the everyday Muslim American experience.\n---\n\nOn March 17th\, GISC will host *Two Gods* filmmakers Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali for a filmmaker Q&A. This conversation will be moderated by local Detroit filmmaker and GISC Fellow Razi Jafri. RSVP: http://bit.ly/GISCTwoGods\n \nJoin us for the rest of the 'Black Islam in the Americas' series:\n \nOn March 29that 1:00 PM ET\, GISC will host Dr. Su'ad Abdul Khabeer and Dr. Rasul Miller for a lecture on Black Islam in the Americas\, with a focus on the United States. Dr. Su’ad Abdul Khabeer is a scholar\, artist\, activist\, and author of* Muslim Cool: Race\, Religion\, and Hip Hop in the United States* (2016). She is an associate professor of American Culture and Director of the Arab and Muslim American Studies program at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from Princeton University\, is a graduate of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University\, and completed the Islamic Studies diploma program of the Institute at Abu Nour University (Damascus). In her most recent work\, Umi’s Archive\, Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines the intersections of official history and the untold stories of Black women and Black Muslims through the lens of her mother’s life. Umi means mother in Arabic\, and Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines her mother’s photographic and literary archives\, and so the digital exhibition series is Umi's Archive. The project sees everyday Black women as people who know things we all need to know. Dr. Rasul Miller's work looks into Black Muslim communities in the Atlantic world\, Black radicalism and its impact on social and cultural movements in the twentieth-century U.S.\, Black internationalism\, and West African intellectual history. Dr. Miller's current book project\, *Black Muslim Cosmopolitanism: The Global Character of New York City's Black Muslim Movements*\, examines the Black internationalist origins of early twentieth-century Black Sunni Muslim congregations in and around New York City\, and the cultural and political orientations that characterized subsequent communities of Black Muslims in the U.S. who built robust\, transnational networks as they actively engaged traditions and communities of Muslims on the African continent.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

Map ≠ Territory deconstructs maps that have been used to subjugate\, appropriate\, and oppress\, as well as the maps that counter that power through emancipation and advocacy. The exhibit critically engages with materials that span from the colonial era to modern-day Detroit.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.

How do we find a safe place\, protected from bad weather and circumstance\, in an era of floods\, fires\,violence\, abuse and pandemics? \n\nSnelling finds a route for escape by constructing big and small sculptural worlds\, private and public. \n\nSnelling is at U-M this winter term as the current Roman Witt Artist in Residence. During her residency\, the Institute for the Humanities Gallery and its Osterman Common Room will function as a “laboratory\,” or open studio\, where visitors can see the artist’s creative process as the installation evolves\, and the rooms change\, debunking any presumptive myth of permanence. \n\nSnelling’s pop aesthetic incorporates prefab objects\, bright colors\, light\, video\, and sound. The work is disarming in its exuberance\, reassuring us there is no such thing as a zombie under the bed\, while at the same time\, making room to process the very real and unsettling world in which we live. \n\nThrough workshops guided by Snelling\, U-M students and others from our local and outlying communities will create small-scale rooms or dwellings…”a room of one’s own” reflective of their personal feelings and ideas about home\, safety\, and dreams. \n\nThe experience of crafting together articulates the fundamental importance of our relationship to one another. The myriad of rooms will be displayed ongoing in the Osterman Common Room\, as well as becoming part of an installation on wheels\, a mobile unit meant to travel throughout town.\n\nThe mobile installation contemplates how we measure our sense of belonging\, or where we come from\, in a world of ongoing transitions and migrations. \n\nSnelling’s project fosters belonging despite all of the different ways we live and co-exist\, beyond structures and times of remoteness. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence and the power of our individual and collective imagination. \n\nIn her previous 2017 Institute for the Humanities Gallery exhibition *Here and There*\, Snelling pushed up against the challenges of economic inequities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. \n\n “The ongoing lack of affordable health care\, systematic racism\, class division\, economic downturn\, and the impacts of climate change all contribute to global poverty and housing issues…\,\" states Snelling. \"By working on this project with U-M students and communities regionally\, I hope to not only raise awareness of housing precarity but also be responsive together as a community...to the challenges facing our fellow citizens.”\n\n-Amanda Krugliak Arts Curator\n\nThe overall project *How To Build a Disaster Proof House* is curated by Amanda Krugiak\, Arts Curator and Assistant Director of Arts Programming at the Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with Chrisstina Hamilton\, Director of the Roman Witt Residency Program at the Stamps School. Tracey Snelling is the Stamps 2022 Roman Witt Artist in Residence.\n\nThe project has included workshops with groups across the U-M campus and further afield in the regional community at spaces including the Ann Arbor Art Center (A2AC)\, The Shelter Association of Washtenaw County at the Robert J. Delonis Center and Freighthouse Day Shelter\, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti\; and shelter for New Americans in Hamtramck. Thanks to U-M student and Delonis caseworker Alexzandra McCrum\, A2AC Gallery Director Ashley Miller\, Stamps MDes students and Stamps professor Nick Tobier for all of your guidance and help facilitating these outreach engagements.\n\nThe Disaster Proof mobile unit will be exhibited at the 60th Ann Arbor Film Festival in the Michigan Theater\, Tuesday March 22 - Sunday March 27\, 2022. Snelling’s short film A Poem is a City\, created in collaboration with Arthur Debert\, will be in competition as part of this year’s AAFF programming. A *Disaster Proof* community installation will appear at the Ann Arbor Art Center beginning in mid-April in connection with the A2AC Gallery’s inaugural exhibition\, *Sharing Space* (May 20 - July 8\, 2022).

In the process\, many of them have been arrested\, brutalized\, censored\, deported\, imprisoned\, or executed. Some were innocent victims of violent police or discriminatory policies.\n\nThe U-M Library’s Joseph A. Labadie Collection documents the history of social protest movements and marginalized political communities from the nineteenth century to the present.

Though operatic in some ways—it prizes the beauty of the human voice—it deviates from convention by conveying its narrative through music and movement\, but not words. It was one of many that redefined the experience of opera in the 1980s and ‘90s. This presentation traces the development of Atlas\, using the story of its creation as a window into broader transformations in American opera at the end of the twentieth century.\n\nRyan Ebright is a musicologist at Bowling Green State University. His work on 20th-century and contemporary opera has appeared in the New York Times\, New Yorker\, Cambridge Opera Journal\, and American Music. His current book project\, Making American Opera after “Einstein\,” centers on the efforts of artists and institutions over the last forty years to redefine American opera. As a public scholar\, he has given talks for the Los Angeles Philharmonic\, Opera Philadelphia\, and Toledo Symphony.\n\nThis is the third lecture of a six-lecture series. The subject of the series is Music in Detroit and Michigan: The Legend Continues. The next lecture in the series will take place March 24\, 2022. The title is Music of Arab America.

Mobley\, M.D.\, Ph.D.\, University of California\, San Diego DESCRIPTION:Synapse dysfunction and loss are hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD)\, responsible for its clinical manifestations. Defining the molecular basis for deficits in synapse structure and function are essential for elucidating AD pathogenesis and promise to enhance discovery of effective treatments. Elderly adults with Down syndrome (DS) demonstrate many of the clinical and pathological manifestations of AD\; the condition is referred to as AD-DS. While age is an important risk factor for both AD and AD-DS\, how age intersects with underlying changes in brain function are unclear. Studies in DS provide an opportunity to decipher the biology that underlies the impact of age on the genetic factor known to be necessary for AD-DS\, an increase in APP copy number. Studies of synapse dysfunction and loss are not well investigated in those with AD-DS. We will explore the age by gene interaction through cell biological and in vivo studies in a mouse model and in the AD-DS brain. \n\n\n**About the Speaker**\nWilliam Mobley is a Distinguished Professor of Neurosciences and Associate Dean for Neurosciences Initiatives at the University of California\, San Diego.

Although media philosophers have argued since the twentieth century that media are fundamental to being human\, this question has not been explicitly asked and answered in the field. Armond R. Towns demonstrates that humanity in media philosophy has implicitly referred to a social Darwinian understanding of the human as a Western\, white\, male\, capitalist figure. Building on concepts from Black studies and cultural studies\, Towns develops an insightful critique of this dominant conception of the human in media philosophy and introduces a foundation for Black media philosophy. On Black Media Philosophy deftly illustrates that media are not only important for Western Humanity but central to alternative Black epistemologies and other ways of being human.

The advent of electric propulsion technology resulting in multi-year\, low-thrust missions has inspired investigation into enhanced optimization techniques for designing the ensuing trajectories more efficiently. Moreover\, the complex sub-systems of these low thrust engines (like DAWN’s NSTAR\, NEXT\, Psyche’s SPT-140) provide unprecedented system-level challenges for co-optimization of trajectory and spacecraft for a holistic optimized mission. This work describes novel extensions of classical indirect methods to optimize such systems involving inequality constraints\, discontinuities in states and controls and abrupt time triggered events. Furthermore\, innovative methods will be introduced that enable multiple preliminary trade-off aspects like mission objectives\, propulsion constraints\, solar power sub-systems and parameters\, trajectory design and operational constraints. These challenges are addressed by an ingenious inclusion of spacecraft system level optimization in the preliminary mission design phase. The result is an indirect multi-disciplinary optimization (MDO) family of methods for missions. The approach is a fusion of invariant embedding\, and mixed integer nonlinear programming with calculus of variation that very significantly expands the current class of trajectory optimization problems solvable by classical methods. The work also introduces an original stochastic\, covariance constrained guidance approach for strategizing tracking\, re-planning and associated contingencies for space missions. This novel contribution to the literature is anticipated to be the initiating step towards an autonomous guidance approach that enables cooperative autonomy\, reliability and precision of future missions. The presented methods yield breakthrough recipes for system-level optimization involving realistic discrete operational constraints/events/multi-mode actuators with an attribute of real-time re-planning capability. The optimization approach while demonstrated on aerospace dynamical systems has a wide applicability.\n\nAbout the speaker...\nVishala Arya is a Ph.D. candidate at the aerospace department of Texas A & M University working under the supervision of Dr. John Junkins. Her research strengths are analytical dynamics\, orbital mechanics\, optimal control\, system optimization and computational methods. She is currently researching direct and indirect-based methods for mission design including co-optimization of spacecraft\, trajectory\, and propulsion parameters of multi-mode solar propulsion systems. Her research also includes autonomous and fault-tolerant guidance of spacecraft for low thrust interplanetary maneuvers\, and stochastic control principles for non-linear systems. She is a recipient of John V Breakwell award at AAS Space Flight Mechanics conference and a student paper award at the AAS Guidance\, Navigation and Control conference. She is currently a research fellow at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory working on the Grace Follow-On mission.

In this presentation\, Dr. Gurses will describe how human factors and systems engineering principles and approaches can be used (1) to systematically identify hazards to patient safety and health care worker safety given the complex\, adaptive\, nonlinear nature of health care work systems\; and (2) to develop effective interventions with the purpose of eliminating and/or mitigating these hazards and improving adaptive capacity and resilience of the frontline care work. Application examples will be from a variety of health care settings (i.e.\, emergency department\, operating rooms\, home care)\, and focus areas (e.g.\, safety of care transitions/ handoffs\, COVID-19 personal protective equipment use\, and the safety of air flow management in clinical settings).\n\nThe Departmental Seminar Series is open to all. U-M Industrial and Operations Engineering graduate students and faculty are especially encouraged to attend.\n\nPresenter Bio:\nAyse P. Gurses\, Ph.D.\, MS\, MPH\n\nDirector\, Center for Health Care Human Factors\, Armstrong Institute\, Johns Hopkins Medicine\n\nProfessor\, Schools of Medicine\, Bloomberg Public Health\, Whiting Engineering\, Johns Hopkins University\n\nDr. Gurses is a globally recognized researcher\, educator\, and thought leader in infusing human factors engineering principles and methods into health care with the goal to design better and safer work environments and systems for improving patient safety and health care worker safety. She is the Founding Director of the Center for Health Care Human Factors at the Johns Hopkins Armstrong Institute and Professor in the Johns Hopkins University Schools of Medicine\, Bloomberg Public Health and Whiting Engineering. She is the author of more than 100 peer-reviewed publications on human factors engineering\, patient safety and quality of care\, and health care worker safety. \nDr. Gurses has conducted research in a variety of care settings\, including hospitals\, ambulatory care\, long-term care\, and home care\, as well as transitions of care between these settings. Her current research efforts include\, but not limited to\, re-engineering complex work systems to reduce healthcare-associated infections\, improving safe management air flow and aerosol generating procedures in the operating rooms to reduce infection transmission\, modeling cognitive and team work to improve diagnostic safety in emergency departments\, improving safety care transitions/ handoffs\, and improving medication safety among older adults using human-centered design approaches. Her research program has been funded by the CDC\, AHRQ\, NIH\, NSF\, multiple foundations and private institutions. Dr. Gurses served as a member of an ad-hoc National Academies Committee on a 2-year effort that produced the 2022 report titled “Frameworks for Protecting Workers and the Public from Inhalation Hazards.” She also served as an Editor/ Scientific Editor for several journals in her field of expertise and currently is an Executive Committee Member of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society. Dr. Gurses received multiple awards for her contributions to the science of safety\, including the Federation of Associations in Behavioral and Brain Sciences Foundation Award\, Liberty Mutual Award on Safety\, and the International Ergonomics Association Best Paper Award in Occupational Safety and Ergonomics.\nIn addition to advancing the science of safety\, Dr. Gurses’s health care human factors program has had a wide practical impact in the frontline clinical work. For example\, when the Ebola epidemic hit in 2014\, she led the Armstrong Institute’s efforts in partnering with the CDC to develop a web-based training to prepare health care professionals for potential Ebola cases by integrating human factors and industrial engineering\, implementation science\, and public health principles and methods with infection control and prevention and clinical expertise. Currently\, as part of the CDC’s Project Firstline Initiative\, and in collaboration with the JHU Applied Physics Laboratory\, Dr. Gurses is leading a large-scale\, multidisciplinary\, innovative project aimed at improving infection prevention and control in the operating rooms across the nation.

Stars form in heavily obscured molecular clouds\, and understanding the initial conditions of star formation persists as one of the leading problems of modern astrophysics. Beyond the Milky Way—especially in high-redshift galaxies—the physical processes driving star formation become even more challenging to decipher. In this talk\, I will show how we can advance the field by making vital connections between local\, extragalactic\, and early universe star formation. I will discuss theoretical models that explore the cosmological evolution of interstellar dust. I will then present state-of-the-art ALMA observations\, which are opening new windows onto star formation in a wide variety of environments beyond the Milky Way.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common inherited form of heart disease\, and one of the most common sites of disease causing mutations is beta cardiac myosin\, the motor protein responsible for contraction. While HCM is characterized clinically by muscle cell (cardiomyocyte) growth and hypercontractility\, HCM mutations cause a diverse range of effects on the molecular function of myosin that has important implications for disease severity and treatment options. Using gene-edited human induced pluripotent stem cells in engineered environments\, I measured the effects of these mutations at the cellular scale\; namely: increased traction force generation\, increased cell size\, increased signaling of hypertrophic pathways\, and altered cytoskeletal and cell junction organization. I have used computational models to link measured changes in molecular and cellular biomechanics\, probed sources of cellular variability\, and identified mechanisms of hypercontractility. In addition to cardiomyocyte hypertrophy\, myofibroblast activation contributes to fibrotic tissue remodeling in many cardiac conditions and is affected by changes in tissue mechanics and interactions with other cardiac cells. In my doctoral research\, I found that therapeutic targeting of a cadherin expressed in myofibroblasts and inflammatory cells after MI can limit harmful remodeling. My research leverages engineering tools to clarify the mechanical and biological mechanisms of cardiac disease and can help inform the development and application of new therapies for HCM and other cardiac diseases. \n\nBio:\nAlison Schroer Vander Roest received her undergraduate degree in biomedical engineering at the University of Virginia. She then received a PhD in biomedical engineering at Vanderbilt University with Dr. Dave Merryman\, studying fibroblast mechanobiology and the role of cadherin-11 in fibrotic and inflammatory remodeling after myocardial infarction. After completing her doctoral work\, Dr. Vander Roest pursued postdoctoral training at Stanford University as part of a collaborative team between the mechanical and bioengineering\, biochemistry\, and pediatric cardiology departments. Her project at Stanford has been co-mentored by Dr. Beth Pruitt\, Dr. Jim Spudich\, and Dr. Dan Bernstein and aims to understand mechanisms linking mutations in beta-cardiac myosin to phenotypes of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy using stem cell models and engineered environments. Dr. Vander Roest has also developed collaborations to incorporate transcriptome analysis\, FRET tension sensors\, and computational modeling of myosin kinetics to better understand cardiomyocyte mechanobiology. This project has been awarded a K99/R00 Pathway to Independence Award that will fund future research into multiscale mechanisms of cardiac disease.  \n\nZoom Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/96508834308\n\nOrganized by:\nDr. Brendon Baker\,\nAssistant Professor\, Biomedical Engineering\n\nDr. David Nordsletten\,\nAssociate Professor\, Department of Biomedical Engineering and Cardiac Surgery UID:93213-21701540@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/93213 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,bme,engineering,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Lurie Biomedical Engineering (formerly ATL) - 1130 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220303T164445 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220317T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220317T180000 SUMMARY:Film Screening:“What Does It Mean to Keep a Secret?” Film Series DESCRIPTION:Join the Jean and Samuel Frankel Center for Judaic Studies for a hybrid film series on the topic of \"Secrets.\"\n\nDocumenting Secret Origins\nDr. Deborah Porter\, University of Washington\, Seattle\nMarch 10\, 4pm\nHybrid\nZoom Registration: https://myumi.ch/G11Qg\nNorth Quad Room 2435\n\nDrawing from her research on the impact of family secrets on psychological functioning and organization\, Dr. Porter approaches Michal Weits' Blue Box and Shir Newman's How to Say Silence as cultural objects that have much to offer researchers interested in human behavior and motivation.

In magnetic solids\, the chirality of spin textures is derived from the twisting habit of neighboring atomic spins. I will discuss dynamical processes\, specifically thermal fluctuation processes\, which are transient but generate a net chiral habit in a magnetic solid. Through their coupling to local magnetic moments\, conduction electrons feel this chiral habit\; hence\, (thermo-) electric transport coefficients\, which are time-averaged quantities\, allow us to distinguish two scenarios: (1) Short-range spin correlations\, where a small cluster of magnetic moments is sufficient to describe the physical properties of the thermally disordered solid and (2) Longer-range correlations\, such as dynamically nucleating and decaying skyrmions. I introduce toy model systems which realize Kagome and triangular lattices of magnetic moments\, and discuss the role of lattice geometry in promoting these fluctuation phenomena. Finally\, I will show that the thermal Hall effect of magnetic insulators can also have a contribution related to thermal fluctuations of spin-chiral nature.\n UID:92985-21698764@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92985 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Physics,Science LOCATION:West Hall - 335 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220401T123107 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220317T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220317T170000 SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:Your pathway to a career of social impact with City Year!

David wrote about his family’s experiences in his book – many of which centered around U-M – in his book\, A Good American Family: The Red Scare and My Father\, and will discuss how this period of heightened ideological tension still reverberates today\, especially given our own era of increasing political engagement and polarization.\n\nHosted by Gary Krenz.

His most recent book\, A Good American Family: The Red Scare and My Father\, should be of particular interest to the University and to the Ann Arbor Community at large. Both Maraniss's parents\, Elliot and Mary\, were student activists at the University of Michigan in the late 1930s. His uncle\, Robert Cummins\, was one of three students who volunteered in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and fought in the Spanish Civil War in defense of the Republic. In his book Maraniss offers an account of his parents' anti-fascist activism at the University\, his father's work as a reporter and editor at the Michigan Daily (alongside Arthur Miller)\, and the persecution his parents suffered during the McCarthy era. In 1952 his father was called to testify before the House Committee on Un-American Activities. After refusing to name names\, Elliot Maraniss was fired from his job at the Detroit Times and endured five years of being blacklisted from the newspaper business. Maraniss's presentation will bring to light a largely forgotten chapter in the history of the University and the Detroit area. His family's experiences in a period of heightened ideological tensions should resonate with a broad audience and prompt a serious discussion\, given our own era of increasing political polarization.

The duo began collaborating at University of Michigan School of Music\, Theatre\, & Dance in 2019. They found common ground despite coming from different backgrounds with Hannah from Irish fiddling and Grant from American improvisational idioms.\n\nIn August 2021 they released their first duo record\, “Windward.” This album features a collection of their original tunes but also some of their takes on fiddling standards. Their arrangements have been worked up without notation and sometimes incorporate improvised sections. While the duo feels at home on double fiddle\, they also change instrumentation often incorporating tenor guitar and nyckelharpa. Their musical interests are broad and as a result their programs showcase an eclectic assemblage of repertoire.\n---\nProof of COVID vaccination required for entry.

After returning home to London\, Broadwood consulted with many of England's finest pianists to choose the best of his newest Broadwood pianos\, which he sent to Beethoven as a gift. Inscribed above the nameboard on the piano are the words: \"Hoc instrumentum est Thomas Broadwood londini donum propter ingenium illustrissimi Beethoven.\" [This instrument from Thomas Broadwood of London is a true gift to the illustrious Beethoven.]\n\nUpon hearing that the piano was being sent to him\, Beethoven wrote to Broadwood: \"My dearest friend Broadwood\, I have never felt a greater pleasure than that given me by the anticipation of the arrival of this piano\, with which you are honouring me as a present. I shall regard it as an altar on which I shall place my spirit’s most beautiful offerings to the divine Apollo. As soon as I receive your excellent instrument\, I shall send you the fruits of the first moments of inspiration I spend at it\, as a souvenir for you from me\, my very dear B.\, and I hope that they will be worthy of your instrument. My dear sir and friend\, accept my warmest consideration\, from your friend and most humble servant\, Louis Van Beethoven. Vienna\, 3rd February 1818.”\n\nThe piano featured in tonight's performance was built approximately ten years before Beethoven's Broadwood. It has a smaller compass of notes and less string tension\, but retains many acoustical similarities to the piano Beethoven received and played.\n\nattend in person or watch livestream at https://myui.ch/McIntoshTheatre UID:92571-21692638@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92571 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Concert,Culture,Free,Music,North campus LOCATION:Earl V.

Inside a corner casket shop in East Orange\, laboring amid the sawdust and the long pine boxes\, casket makers work with mentors in the Islamic burial tradition. Hanif\, a Black Muslim casket maker who finds spiritual grounding in his work\, brings two boys from the local community under his tutelage\; 12-year-old Furquan and 17-year-old Naz\, neither of whom have fathers at home. Hanif teaches Furquan and Naz the practices of Islamic burial rituals as they assist him with his work. Having formerly served time in prison\, Hanif continues to grapple with past mistakes and new challenges\, while his faith and community helps him guide his young charges on their own paths toward healing and embracing life.\n \nShot in a striking black-and-white\, *TWO GODS* explores the juxtaposition of grief and the rituals of death with the vibrancy and potential of adolescence. The documentary turns an empathetic lens on Muslim American stories\, ultimately crafting a moving portrait of both the intimate moments and the complexities of the everyday Muslim American experience.\n---\n\nOn March 17th\, GISC will host *Two Gods* filmmakers Zeshawn Ali and Aman Ali for a filmmaker Q&A.

Dr. Su’ad Abdul Khabeer is a scholar\, artist\, activist\, and author of* Muslim Cool: Race\, Religion\, and Hip Hop in the United States* (2016). She is an associate professor of American Culture and Director of the Arab and Muslim American Studies program at the University of Michigan. She received her Ph.D. in cultural anthropology from Princeton University\, is a graduate of the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University\, and completed the Islamic Studies diploma program of the Institute at Abu Nour University (Damascus). In her most recent work\, Umi’s Archive\, Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines the intersections of official history and the untold stories of Black women and Black Muslims through the lens of her mother’s life. Umi means mother in Arabic\, and Dr. Abdul Khabeer examines her mother’s photographic and literary archives\, and so the digital exhibition series is Umi's Archive. The project sees everyday Black women as people who know things we all need to know. Dr. Rasul Miller's work looks into Black Muslim communities in the Atlantic world\, Black radicalism and its impact on social and cultural movements in the twentieth-century U.S.\, Black internationalism\, and West African intellectual history. Dr. Miller's current book project\, *Black Muslim Cosmopolitanism: The Global Character of New York City's Black Muslim Movements*\, examines the Black internationalist origins of early twentieth-century Black Sunni Muslim congregations in and around New York City\, and the cultural and political orientations that characterized subsequent communities of Black Muslims in the U.S. who built robust\, transnational networks as they actively engaged traditions and communities of Muslims on the African continent.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

How do we find a safe place\, protected from bad weather and circumstance\, in an era of floods\, fires\,violence\, abuse and pandemics? \n\nSnelling finds a route for escape by constructing big and small sculptural worlds\, private and public. \n\nSnelling is at U-M this winter term as the current Roman Witt Artist in Residence. During her residency\, the Institute for the Humanities Gallery and its Osterman Common Room will function as a “laboratory\,” or open studio\, where visitors can see the artist’s creative process as the installation evolves\, and the rooms change\, debunking any presumptive myth of permanence. \n\nSnelling’s pop aesthetic incorporates prefab objects\, bright colors\, light\, video\, and sound. The work is disarming in its exuberance\, reassuring us there is no such thing as a zombie under the bed\, while at the same time\, making room to process the very real and unsettling world in which we live. \n\nThrough workshops guided by Snelling\, U-M students and others from our local and outlying communities will create small-scale rooms or dwellings…”a room of one’s own” reflective of their personal feelings and ideas about home\, safety\, and dreams. \n\nThe experience of crafting together articulates the fundamental importance of our relationship to one another. The myriad of rooms will be displayed ongoing in the Osterman Common Room\, as well as becoming part of an installation on wheels\, a mobile unit meant to travel throughout town.\n\nThe mobile installation contemplates how we measure our sense of belonging\, or where we come from\, in a world of ongoing transitions and migrations. \n\nSnelling’s project fosters belonging despite all of the different ways we live and co-exist\, beyond structures and times of remoteness. Concurrently\, the installation embraces our everyday existence and the power of our individual and collective imagination. \n\nIn her previous 2017 Institute for the Humanities Gallery exhibition *Here and There*\, Snelling pushed up against the challenges of economic inequities\, racial biases\, and imposed class divisions that often limit the options available to so many people. \n\n “The ongoing lack of affordable health care\, systematic racism\, class division\, economic downturn\, and the impacts of climate change all contribute to global poverty and housing issues…\,\" states Snelling. \"By working on this project with U-M students and communities regionally\, I hope to not only raise awareness of housing precarity but also be responsive together as a community...to the challenges facing our fellow citizens.”\n\n-Amanda Krugliak Arts Curator\n\nThe overall project *How To Build a Disaster Proof House* is curated by Amanda Krugiak\, Arts Curator and Assistant Director of Arts Programming at the Institute for the Humanities in collaboration with Chrisstina Hamilton\, Director of the Roman Witt Residency Program at the Stamps School. Tracey Snelling is the Stamps 2022 Roman Witt Artist in Residence.\n\nThe project has included workshops with groups across the U-M campus and further afield in the regional community at spaces including the Ann Arbor Art Center (A2AC)\, The Shelter Association of Washtenaw County at the Robert J. Delonis Center and Freighthouse Day Shelter\, Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti\; and shelter for New Americans in Hamtramck. Thanks to U-M student and Delonis caseworker Alexzandra McCrum\, A2AC Gallery Director Ashley Miller\, Stamps MDes students and Stamps professor Nick Tobier for all of your guidance and help facilitating these outreach engagements.\n\nThe Disaster Proof mobile unit will be exhibited at the 60th Ann Arbor Film Festival in the Michigan Theater\, Tuesday March 22 - Sunday March 27\, 2022. Snelling’s short film A Poem is a City\, created in collaboration with Arthur Debert\, will be in competition as part of this year’s AAFF programming. A *Disaster Proof* community installation will appear at the Ann Arbor Art Center beginning in mid-April in connection with the A2AC Gallery’s inaugural exhibition\, *Sharing Space* (May 20 - July 8\, 2022).

In the process\, many of them have been arrested\, brutalized\, censored\, deported\, imprisoned\, or executed. Some were innocent victims of violent police or discriminatory policies.\n\nThe U-M Library’s Joseph A. Labadie Collection documents the history of social protest movements and marginalized political communities from the nineteenth century to the present. Established in 1911\, it is the oldest and largest public archive of its kind in the world.

Following the story of 25 year old strike leader\, Anna “Big Annie” Klobuchar Clemenc\, Russell draws attention to the women and the immigrants who risked their lives to fight unregulated capitalist exploitation. Widely praised for meticulous research\, fine prose\, and the compelling narrative drive of her stories\, Mary Doria Russell is the award-winning author of seven bestselling novels\, including the science fiction classics “The Sparrow and Children of God”\; the World War II thriller\, “A Thread of Grace”\; and a political romance set in 1921 Cairo called “Dreamers of the Day”. \n\nMary Doria Russell was born in the Chicago suburbs to a military family. She received her BA in Cultural Anthropology at the University of Illinois- Urbana-Champaign\; her MA in Social Anthropology at Northeastern University\, Boston\; and her PhD in Biological Anthropology at the University of Michigan. Mary lives in Cleveland\, Ohio. \n\nThe activities surrounding this event will begin with a discussion of Mary Doria Russell’s novel on Friday March 18\, 2022 at 10:00am facilitated by the students and faculty of EMU’s Honors College. Following the event will be a panel discussion focusing on the themes raised by the novel - feminism\, union organization\, immigrant’s rights\, and the history of the Peninsula Community in which the novel is set. \n\nPre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone.

Michigan\, Indiana\, Iowa\, and Northwestern\, among a few others\, have long served conspicuously as conduits for writers living in a kind of historical—and\, for much of the twentieth century\, political—frontier. It is through these institutions that many such writers have entered the world literary marketplace. Though rarely remarked\, this concentration of activity has deep demographic\, cultural\, and geopolitical roots\, tying the middle of one continent to the middle of another and providing a durable link between immigrant communities and their points of origination.\n\nThis interdisciplinary seminar retraces the institutional history of midwestern translation networks for Eastern European literature. The day’s activities\, which are intended both for our scholarly community and the general public\, will include a panel on Ann Arbor’s conspicuous role as a hub of Eastern European literature\; an online and in-person exhibit of archival and print materials\; an expert panel on tamizdat (banned literature published abroad and often smuggled back into its country of origin)\; an expert panel on the present and future of globalizing Eastern European and Central Asian literature\; and a celebratory reading of poetry in translation.\n\nProgram:\n10-10:45: \"Samizdat from a Basement in Ann Arbor\": Piotr Westwalewicz\, Herbert Eagle\, Jindrich Toman\n\n11-11:45: Presentation of Building Bridges Over Walls Exhibit (doctoral students Azhar Dyussekenova\, Samantha Farmer\, Katie Kasperian\, and Tanya Silverman\, Slavic Languages and Literatures\, U-M\; and Dylan Ogden\, Comparative Literature\, U-M)\n\n12-1: Tamizdat and the Cold War: Yakov Klots (Hunter College\, The Tamizdat Project) and Jessie Labov (Central European University)\n\n2-3: Translation Networks Today: Russell Scott Valentino (Indiana University\, Slavica Publishers) and Joanna Trzeciak (Kent State University)\n\n3:15-4:15: \"Listening against Silence\": A Reading of Literature in Translation with Clare Cavanagh (Northwestern University)\n\nThis is an in-person event for U-M students\, faculty\, and staff only\; all sessions will also be livestreamed on Zoom.\n\nRegistration for in-person attendance is required.

However\, the non-smooth piecewise linear loss function introduces challenges to the computational aspect when the number of covariates is large. To address the aforementioned challenge\, we propose a convolution-type smoothing approach that turns the non-differentiable quantile piecewise linear loss function into a twice- differentiable\, globally convex\, and locally strongly convex surrogate\, which admits a fast and scalable gradient-based algorithm to perform optimization. In the low-dimensional setting\, we establish nonasymptotic error bounds for the resulting smoothed estimator. In the high-dimensional setting\, we propose the concave regularized smoothed quantile regression estimator\, which we solve using a multi-stage convex relaxation algorithm. Theoretically\, we characterize both the algorithmic error due to non-convexity and statistical error for the resulting estimator simultaneously. We show that running the multi-stage algorithm for a few iterations will yield an estimator that achieves the oracle property. Our results suggest that the smoothing approach leads to a significant computational gain without a loss in statistical accuracy.\n\nhttp://www.keanmingtan.com/ UID:90170-21668504@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/90170 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:seminar LOCATION:West Hall - 340 CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220310T121521 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T113000 SUMMARY:Performance:Strings Masterclass with Kenneth Slowik (The Smithsonian Institute) DESCRIPTION:Kenneth Slowik first established his international reputation primarily as a cellist and viola da gamba player through his work with the Smithsonian Chamber Players\, Castle Trio\, Smithson String Quartet\, Axelrod Quartet\, and with Anner Bylsma’s L’Archibudelli.

Pedagogies of Transfemininity in the Spanish Colonial Philippines 1589-1864 DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Jaya Jacobo narrates and describes the simultaneous disavowal and affirmation of transfemininity in the Spanish colonial Philippines within the apparatus of colonial cisheteropatriarchy by looking at narratives which mark out the emergence of the transfeminine in Catholic religious discourse and its catechetical project of conversion. \n\nIn particular\, Jacobo reads the instrumentalization of transfeminine divinity against the establishment of imperial priesthood in chronicles written by Spanish friars as they document the evangelization of the islands. What emerges in these chronicles is the pedagogical value of the transfeminine priest/trans priestess as a recalcitrant body gaining the ideal subjectivity of a “rectified heathen.” To triangulate the discursive formation of the transfeminine as an aberrant body rectifying its own inclinations as well as resisting the force of interdictions\, Jacobo turns to lexicons and grammars through the colonial centuries\, ending with an analysis of the figuration of cisgenderhood and the concomitant recession of trans possibility in the didactics of a significant Tagalog novel of manners in the late nineteenth century. \n\nJaya Jacobo is Assistant Professor of Gender\, Equality and Diversity at the Institute of Education of Coventry University\, United Kingdom. She was previously Postdoctoral Fellow of the Philippine Work Package of the GlobaLGRACE Genders and Cultures of Equality Programme at the University of the Philippines\, which enabled her to work alongside travesti and transsexual women artists\, academics and activists in Brazil. She is a founding co-editor of *Queer Southeast Asia: A Transgressive Journal of Literary Art* and a member of the board of trustees of the Society of Trans Women of the Philippines. \n\nFree and open to the public\; register at http://myumi.ch/9P63y UID:91621-21681040@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/91621 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Asian Languages And Cultures,center for southeast asian studies,Cseas Lecture Series,History,Lecture,Southeast Asia,Virtual LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220309T141400 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T130000 SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:MCDB Seminar> Chemical Biology and Proteomic Approaches to Rare Disease and Cancer DESCRIPTION:Host: Yanzhuang Wang\n\nVirtual event: For Zoom link and passcode\, see the Weekly Update or\nemail: mcdb.seminar.info@umich.edu UID:90411-21670716@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/90411 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Basic Science,Biology,Biosciences,Bsbsigns,Research,Science LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220105T181605 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T133000 SUMMARY:Livestream / Virtual:Mentoring Across Differences DESCRIPTION:This workshop will address challenges that emerge in mentoring relationships related to the players’ social identities and their intersection. Through a variety of interactive activities and case studies\, participants will be able to explore from a distance the way bias plays out in mentoring relationships\, dive into closer practice to recognize their own bias from a mentor’s perspective\, and develop strategies to interrupt various biases to ensure particular kinds of collaborations with members of their future teams. Participants will also be able to tap into personal knowledge and experiences as mentors or mentees and create the vision and practice of mentorship they would like to pursue in their particular fields and careers. The session’s main objective is to recognize the power of intentional mentorship within the inclusive leadership framework by enhancing participants’ skills and professional toolkits and their understanding of differences\, thus\, ultimately\, achieving a higher level of comfort with both vulnerability and life-long growth when advocating for diversity\, equity\, and inclusion.\nThis workshop is designed for University of Michigan master’s students\, doctoral students and postdoctoral fellows.

This limits the type of investor who will engage in projects. Data provides near real time insights into performance\, structural health and use\, much like share prices update as new information becomes available to inform buyers and sellers. As a result\, data from physical infrastructure is setting the stage for a new software-as-a-service (SaaS)-like business and financing model where data contracts can be securitized\, licensed and used for new infrastructure applications and services. By envisioning data as the informational stock (or collateral) of infrastructure\, better pricing of its value\, and improved liquidity of investments\, are already starting to change designs and financing mechanisms that maximize performance delivery. Ultimately\, by decreasing reliance of financing on the tax base of communities\, access to quality infrastructure services will become more democratized\, as data-driven revenue starts contributing to the funding mechanism.

Arcadia Brasiliensis: Landscape and Colonial Dislocation in the Poetry of Cláudio Manuel da Costa DESCRIPTION:The publication of the Orbas of the Brazilian Cláudio Manuel da Costa in 1769 is recognized as the beginning of a period in Brazilian colonial literature termed ‘Arcadianism.’ The literature of this period displays the initial formulations of Brazilian national identity\, anticipating its independence in 1822 and negotiated by means of a neoclassical armature.\n\nMy lecture will consider formulations of space and landscape in the work of Cláudio Manuel da Costa\, whose poetry\, centered around the Greco-Roman bucolic Arcadia\, reconciles the experience of inhabiting a landscape altered by colonialist intervention with the idyllic projection of the European literature which serves as his literary antecedent. Such a formulation encapsulates the tension between real and imagined spaces that characterizes European geographical thinking after the so-called ‘discovery’ of the Americas\, which fundamentally altered the European world view. \n\nThe literature that emerged from the era of Iberian discovery and exploration would shape its colonial spaces in its own imagination through reliance on literary formulations of space coined in the literatures of Greco-Roman antiquity. This Eurocentric narrative is disrupted by literatures produced by the inhabitants of this New World\, shaping the world that was their center in contradistinction to its image in European literatures.

We have not actually traveled very far from our home planet and we are only beginning to understand physiological changes and the potential for using science and engineering to overcome those challenges. For example\, we know we on Earth are protected by the van Allen belts. Can we find a way to protect astronauts who travel beyond the 36\,000 miles of van Allen belt coverage from the radiation? Can we overcome the loss of blood cells\, muscle mass\, proprioception\, and immune system function? Some of these are scientific questions\; others are engineering problems to solve. NASA and her international partners must work together to solve these problems if we are ever to travel back to the Moon\, on to Mars\, and beyond. This generation of scientists and engineers are going to be the people who overcome these challenges. A side benefit is for people all over the world to overcome differences and work together on this greatest of adventures.\n\nAbout the Speaker...\nDr. Kathy Clark is currently a Movement Science Lecturer in the University of Michigan School of Kinesiology. She received her Ph.D. in Kinesiology from the University of Michigan.

The liver is also a frequent site for metastases originating from colorectal cancer\, pancreatic cancer\, melanoma\, lung cancer and breast cancer. Depending on the location\, severity and staging of liver cancer\, multiple treatment options are currently available including surgical resection\, liver transplantation\, chemotherapy\, radiation therapy\, targeted drug therapy\, immunotherapies\, and ablation techniques including radiofrequency ablation (RFA)\, microwave ablation (MWA)\, cryoablation\, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU)\, yet the prognosis of HCC remains poor with five-year survival rates reported at only 18% in the US. Even after treatment\, the high prevalence of tumor recurrence and metastasis highlights the clinical need for improving outcomes of liver cancer.\n\nHistotripsy is a novel non-invasive\, non-ionizing\, and non-thermal ablation technique that mechanically destroys target tissue by controlled acoustic cavitation. High pressure (p->30MPa)\, microsecond-length ultrasound pulses cause endogenous nanometer-scale gas nuclei in the target tissue to rapidly expand and collapse\, generating high mechanical stress and strain to disrupt the cellular structure into an acellular homogenate. This dissertation investigates histotripsy as a therapeutic ultrasound treatment option of liver cancer and other solid tumors.\n\nThe first study evaluated the safety and feasibility and survival benefits of histotripsy in an in vivo murine liver tumor model. Results showed that non-invasive histotripsy ablation reduced local tumor progression of subcutaneous human-derived HCC tumor and improved survival outcomes in immunocompromised mice. This study also characterized the radiological features correlating to the histotripsy tumor response.\n\nThe second study investigated the anti-tumor immune response generated by histotripsy ablation of subcutaneous murine melanoma and HCC tumors. Histotripsy stimulated potent local intratumoral infiltration of innate and adaptive immune cell populations\, promoted abscopal immune responses at untreated tumor sites and inhibited growth of pulmonary metastases. Histotripsy was capable of releasing tumor antigens with retained immunogenicity and was able to amplify the efficacy of checkpoint inhibition immunotherapy.\n\nThe third study evaluated the safety\, feasibility\, and tumor volume reduction effects of histotripsy for liver cancer ablation in an orthotopic\, immune-competent in vivo rat HCC model. For the first time\, it was demonstrated that complete as well as partial histotripsy ablation of tumors can result in complete tumor regression with no recurrence.\n\nThe fourth study evaluated the effects of partial histotripsy tumor ablation on tumor response\, risk of metastases and immune infiltration in an orthotopic\, immunocompetent\, metastatic rodent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) model. Results showed that histotripsy significantly improved survival outcomes with no increased risk of metastasis compared to controls and demonstrated that augmented tumor immune infiltration may have contributed to the eventual regression even with partial treatment of tumors.\n\nThe fifth study compared the safety\, tumor response and survival outcomes between single and repeat histotripsy treatments of human-derived HCC tumors in immunocompromised murine hosts and mouse-derived HCC tumors in immunocompetent murine hosts. One week after the initial histotripsy treatment\, animals received a repeat histotripsy treatment. Results showed that while both histotripsy groups significantly improved survival outcomes over control\, the repeat histotripsy group demonstrated slower tumor growth and increased survival compared to single histotripsy.\n\nOverall\, this dissertation demonstrated the potential and in vivo feasibility of histotripsy for successful non-invasive tumor ablation\, reduction of local tumor burden and prevention of metastasis. Future studies will continue to investigate the safety\, efficacy\, and biological effects of histotripsy liver cancer treatment for potential translation to clinic.\n\nDate: Friday\, March 18\, 2022\nTime: 1:30 PM EST\nZoom: https://umich.zoom.us/j/95042725076 Passcode: EarthPass\nChair: Professor Zhen Xu UID:92996-21698984@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92996 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:biomedical,biomedical engineering,bme,engineering,Medicine,Michigan Engineering LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220224T091948 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T133000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220318T150000 SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:The Weakness of Strong Expectations: Diffusion and the Self-Defeating Prophecy DESCRIPTION:New innovations\, practices\, and behaviors often spread through diffusion processes in which earlier adopters influence later adopters. However\, research on diffusion has a well-documented success bias — cases in which a new innovation successfully spreads through a population or organizational field garner more attention and theorizing than the countless other cases in which similar innovations fail to take off. The same theories and models that account for successful diffusion often become cumbersome when tasked with explaining failed diffusion\, an outcome that is at least equally common. In this talk\, I will present results from a theoretically-informed computational model of organizational behavior to argue that failed diffusion need not be more mysterious than successful diffusion. In fact\, both outcomes may reflect the same underlying mechanisms rooted in how actors form social expectations for how others will behave. Organizations interpret their peers’ decisions to adopt or reject a new innovation in light of their own socially formed expectations\, with unsurprising decisions having less impact than conspicuous surprises. Consequently\, successive adoptions of a new innovation reinforce its spread while also paradoxically making its continued diffusion more susceptible to disruptions that can make a previously growing “bandwagon” suddenly and unexpectedly collapse. These dynamics make the spread of new innovations noisy and unpredictable because the same innovation facing identical initial conditions can diffuse widely in some cases but fail to launch in others. While we often think of institutionalized expectations as making the social world more predictable\, the opposite also holds—widely-believed prophecies can be self-defeating as well as self-fulfilling.

As a first-generation college student in LSA\, she became a firm believer in the power of developing a professional network because it helped her secure internships at the Human Rights Campaign\, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation\, and then Google\, which then led to her current role in their San Francisco office as Racial Equity Program Manager. In this practical Alum Connection\, Na’kia will provide ideas and tools for breaking through your shyness around networking. She’ll get you thinking about potential internships to help you learn what you may want to do in your career\, and help you navigate the significant resources the U-M and LSA has to offer.\n\n\nAbout Na’kia:\nNa’kia Channey is a 2020 graduate of the University of Michigan with a BA in Organizational Studies and International Studies. She is a Strategic Project Manager at Google where she works closely with experts to define and execute the industry-defining Racial Equity Commitments and company-wide People Strategy. While an LSA student\, Na’kia acquired competitive internships in top nonprofits and Fortune 100 companies\, notably the Human Rights Campaign and Google. She is a first-generation college student and has broken down barriers\, attributing her success to her unique networking and job search approach which has allowed her to secure internships while bypassing the typical application process.

We posit that humans represent and predict ethical choices by determining how much the observed person values themselves (S)\, values others (O)\, and cares about outcome disparities (D). Observers are modeled as revising their preconceptions about these parameters after watching the social choices of other people\, which they understand in terms of the three corresponding incentives within each situation. A Morality Game was developed\, where across a series of trials each participant/observer predicts peoples’ next choices before and after watching their previous choices in game theoretic dilemmas with systematically varied payoff structures that include helpful\, selfish\, win-win\, and malicious options. We find that participants represent their beliefs about other peoples' moral decision-making based on relative weightings of the above three independent dimensions and they revise these beliefs with evidence.

Although these are expected to be generically quantum mechanical\, our goal is to understand a class of such states that are coherent enough to admit classical descriptions in Einstein gravity. The construction of such states corresponds to adding interesting topological structures in spacetime with the help of compact extra dimensions. The constructions manifestly behave like ultra compact objects\, dubbed topological stars\, which can also model black hole microstates. I will discuss physical aspects of such constructions.

Tides also change the eccentricity and tilt of the lunar orbit\, and Earth's obliquity (the tilt between the equator plane and the ecliptic plane of our orbit around the Sun).  In this work\, we attempt to calculate the evolution of the Earth-Moon system over the whole of Earth's history using sophisticated ocean tide and orbit models.  Over long time scales\, the rate at which tidal energy is being dissipated is affected by the geometrical configuration of the continents\, the length of day\, and mean sea level\, which is affected by plate tectonic forces and the presence or absence of large ice caps. The faster rotating Earth of the past was less efficient at dissipating energy and the present placement of the continents enhances some tides due to resonances.  In addition\, tidal dissipation in the Moon slows the orbit evolution by absorbing energy from the orbit and there was a time in the distant past when the Moon's tidal dissipation was large. The evolution of the Earth-Moon system is complex and uncertain\, but it can be addressed with advanced models.  At the end of the talk\, we will briefly discuss related work on the potential implications of the Earth's rotation rate for the history of oxygen on Earth.

Focusing on Pakistan\, it looks at the complexity of the processes whereby the postcolonial state formation project was intimately tied with creating a citizen through various discursive practices\, ideological formulations\, and pedagogical tools. Through a close reading of various archival documents\, newspaper reports\, and even museum catalogs\, we will examine how the postcolonial state selectively drew upon the repertoire of the qaum for rich ideological pickings to establish the sense of being Pakistani. Yet\, at the same time\, in the continuous acts of creation and recreation of the state through everyday practices\, the postcolonial state empties the metaphor of qaum of its richness and plurality to make it more amenable and stabilize its meanings. By highlighting the modalities\, rationalities\, and techniques of nation-state formation\, this lecture will historicize the ‘sights and sounds of the nation-state’ through which the postcolonial state creates its preferred representation of nationhood. \n\nBorn and raised in Lahore\, Ali Usman Qasmi is a historian of modern South Asia.

As we celebrate fifty years of Dutch at the University of Michigan with this exhibit\, we trace our paths toward a new frame for Dutch Studies — one that emphasizes colonial repair and rethinks which voices matter. View the exhibit in the north lobby of the Hatcher Library.\n\nAbout the exhibit:\n\nIn the section titled “A New Canon\,\" the exhibit includes an empty space where the novel Max Havelaar by Multatuli would be\, the “top 10” book touted to have “ended colonialism.\" With the empty space\, we acknowledge the book’s white saviorism that rang in the new era of colonial oppression and cultural genocide called the “(Dutch) Ethical Policy.\" The books in our new canon crowd out Multatuli’s empty space in the same way that the other materials on display\, such as the sound of the carillon score of Gold Coast composer\, Charles E. Graves\, or the voice of Indonesian forerunner of colonial reparations\, Jeffry Pondaag\, drowns out the spaces left blank by Willem Janszoon Blaeu’s maps\, which reside in our U-M Library collections but are purposely not displayed.\n\nThe exhibit continues with collections of materials that show the Dutch program’s comparative approach to Dutch Studies\, one that connects histories and cultures and creates understanding through familiar frames of reference. Our collection of Anne Frank materials is supplemented with U-M Professor of History Rudolf Mrázek’s comparative work on the “model camps” of Theresienstadt (Nazi) and Boven Digoel (Dutch). A translation of Leendert van der Valk’s article “1619” on the Dutch foundations of U.S. slavery lies next to Marjolein van Pagee’s Banda: De Genocide van Jan Pieterszoon Coen\, an analysis of the 1621 Dutch genocide and enslavement of the Bandanese people.\n\nThe last part of the exhibit highlights the speakers scheduled to deliver lectures at an end-of-semester anniversary symposium.

Map ≠ Territory deconstructs maps that have been used to subjugate\, appropriate\, and oppress\, as well as the maps that counter that power through emancipation and advocacy. The exhibit critically engages with materials that span from the colonial era to modern-day Detroit.\n\nThe exhibit is available in the Clark Library (second floor Hatcher) during Hatcher Library hours.

Students are expected to explore various written and oral possibilities for communicating their research process\, identifying the limits set by the discipline and the opportunities that lie beyond.\n\nApplications for the 2022-2023 academic year cohort open February 14th.\nPriority Deadline for the applications is March 18th\n\nLearn more at: myumi.ch/uroprs UID:91080-21676471@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/91080 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:AEM Featured,Applications,Fellowship,first-generation,Interdisciplinary,Networking,Research,research data,Sophomore,The College Of Literature\, Science\, And The Arts,Undergraduate,Undergraduate Students,Urop LOCATION:Off Campus Location CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20211207T143030 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220319T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Detroit:20220319T180000 SUMMARY:Exhibition:Prisons and Politics in America DESCRIPTION:This exhibit examines the political reasons for why people are imprisoned: for speaking out\, for writing\, for violating repressive laws\, framed because of their color or politics\, for stealing from the rich\, for refusing the military draft\, for whistleblowing\, for attempting to overthrow the government\, for standing up for a belief\, or for walking over a forbidden line.\n\nThe items focus on maintaining one's humanity behind bars\, promoting political causes\, and offering solidarity in support of prisoners.\n\nThe groups and individuals whose stories are featured in the Labadie Collection share one thing in common: fighting to make a better world. In the process\, many of them have been arrested\, brutalized\, censored\, deported\, imprisoned\, or executed. Some were innocent victims of violent police or discriminatory policies.\n\nThe U-M Library’s Joseph A. Labadie Collection documents the history of social protest movements and marginalized political communities from the nineteenth century to the present. Established in 1911\, it is the oldest and largest public archive of its kind in the world.

Be sure to read about the event policies before you complete your purchase. Due to the recent surge in COVID-19 cases throughout the region\, the University of Michigan will require a proof of COVID-19 vaccination or negative-test protocol for indoor events.

ONCE ON THIS ISLAND follows Ti Moune after she is rescued from a disastrous storm by four gods —Asaka\, Mother of the Earth\; Agwé\, god of Water\; Erzulie\, goddess of Love\; and Papa Ge\, demon of Death. This myth\, told as a breathtaking story of Black joy and sorrow\, the aftermath of colonization and isolation\, and the triumph of love against all forces. Told with Caribbean rhythms and instruments\, this Tony Award–winning musical is a testament that a beautiful story simply told has the power to inspire and heal all.\n\nMUSKET acknowledges the Indigenous tribal communities of the Three Fire Peoples — the Ojibwe\, Odawa\, and Potawatomi\, the traditional territories on which the University of Michigan resides. We recognize that the Power Center for the Performing Arts stands on land that has been obtained through the mistreatment of and violence against Indigenous peoples. Although our acknowledgement does not change the past or present harms done to these communities\, we affirm the ancestral ties to the land and the people that make our venues possible.\n\nTo learn about the land you are on visit native-land.ca UID:92804-21695821@events.umich.edu URL:https://events.umich.edu/event/92804 CLASS:PUBLIC STATUS:CONFIRMED CATEGORIES:Mutotix LOCATION:Power Center for the Performing Arts CONTACT: END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTAMP:20220315T001521 DTSTART;TZID=America/Detroit:20220319T200000 SUMMARY:Performance:Reed Puleo\, percussion DESCRIPTION:PROGRAM\n\nmy technology - Kevin Madison \nfirn - Yaz Lancaster \nInterference(s) - Reed Puleo \nMy Empty Hands - Igor C.
