SUMMARY:FOCAL POINT Dialogues in History Webinar II: Empire and Liberation
DESCRIPTION:Building on the collective knowledge shared in our first webinar\, the History Department’s Colloquium Committee warmly invites you to attend the second session of our FOCAL POINT Dialogues in History series.  Inspired by the History Department’s Statement on the George Floyd Uprising and its invocation to understand and interrogate our racialized past and the investments of disciplinary history within it\, the series brings together UCSB History faculty and graduate students who have volunteered to lead a dialogue on Black life\, race\, and antiblackness in history. The conversations will engage Herman Bennett’s African Kings and Black Slaves\, as a focal point to discuss themes like sovereignty\, empire\, and racial capitalism from different historical angles of vision. \nOur second webinar will engage Prof. Herman Bennett’s emphasis on empire and colonialism in understanding Atlantic history and the politics of liberation from a wide diversity of scholarly standpoints. Registration for the webinar is required. Please click on the link below to register. \nDate: Mar 12\, 2021 \nTime: 1:00 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada) \nWebinar II: Empire and Liberation \nZoom registration: Please register in advance for this webinar using the link below. \nhttps://ucsb.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_kI2R6miRRO2blZUh_62shQ \nFeaturing presentations by Anthony Greco\, Katie Moore\, Stephan Miescher\, and Ya Zuo \nComment by Evelyne Laurent-Perrault \n\nAnthony Greco is a historian of engineering and technology\, colonialism\, and science in the modern Middle East.
