SUMMARY:After Tahrir: Egyptian Revolutionary Experiences and Future Visions
DESCRIPTION:This four-day research collaboration workshop will take place at UC Santa Barbara on the five-year anniversary of the Tahrir Square Uprisings in 2011 that toppled Egypt’s long-term dictator Hosni Mubarak. These uprisings in Egypt accelerated waves of anti-crony-capitalist demonstrations\, worker organizing\, youth revolts\, media insurgencies\, and police brutality protests that overthrew governments\, mobilized populations throughout the Middle East\, and inspired the world. These Tahrir uprisings are called the 25 January Revolution in Egypt and the Arab world. It was on that day that millions of protesters first descended on downtown Cairo to reclaim history and power for the people. \n  \nFor additional information\, including a program schedule\, please visit the following URL: http://www.aftertahrir.net. \n  \nAnd be sure to follow After Tahrir on social media via the following hashtag: #aftertahrir

SUMMARY:Public Lecture: "Racialized Paths to Proletarianization: Myths about Black Economic Competition\, Cheap Labor\, and White Vulnerability"
DESCRIPTION:Tiffany Willoughby-Herard (African American Studies\, UC Irvine) \nThe presentation discusses a key historiographical intervention about so-called “cheap labor” in WASTE OF A WHITE SKIN: THE CARNEGIE CORPORATION AND THE RACIAL LOGIC OF WHITE VULNERABILITY. What did calls for the protection of “civilized labor” and a “white wage” mean to the history of race and class in apartheid South Africa? How did depiction of African workers as “cheap” and “inefficient” laborers “encroaching on white jobs” characterize African women and men as having a purely ornamental function in the history of South African industrialization? What does this legacy suggest about contemporary post-apartheid struggle in South Africa? \nTiffany Willoughby-Herard is an Associate Professor of African American Studies at the University of California\, Irvine. She is the author of WASTE OF A WHITE SKIN: THE CARNEGIE CORPORATION AND THE RACIAL LOGIC OF WHITE VULNERABILITY (University of California Press\, 2015) and editor of the NATIONAL POLITICAL SCIENCE REVIEW. \nSponsored by the IHC’s African Studies RFG\, the Center for Black Studies Research\, and the History Department \n  \n\nWilloughby-Herard1-Flyer\, 3 Feb. 2016

SUMMARY:Beyond Hebrew: Zionism and the Politics of Multilingualism in Palestine\, 1920-1948
DESCRIPTION:Event Description:\nThe promotion of modern Hebrew as a spoken vernacular is often viewed as a central accomplishment of the Zionist movement in Palestine before Israeli statehood. But by viewing twentieth-century history through the lens of language\, author Liora Halperin questions the common narrative of a Zionist move away from multilingualism during the years following World War I. She demonstrates how Jews in Palestine remained connected by both preference and necessity to a world of languages outside the boundaries of the pro-Hebrew community even as many of them promoted Hebrew and achieved that language’s dominance. \nThe story of language encounters in the Jewish community of Palestine is a fascinating tale of shifting power relationships\, both locally and globally. Halperin’s absorbing study explores how a young national community was compelled to modify demands for Hebrew exclusivity as it negotiated its relationships with its diverse Jewish population\, Palestinian Arabs\, the British\, and others outside the margins of the national project and ultimately came to terms with the limitations of its influence and power in an interconnected world. \n  \nAbout the Speaker:\nLiora R. Halperin is an Assistant Professor in the Department of History and the Program in Jewish Studies and the holder of the Endowed Professorship in Israel/Palestine Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder\, where she has taught since 2013. Her research focuses on Jewish cultural history\, Jewish-Arab relations in Ottoman and Mandate Palestine\, language ideology and policy\, and the politics surrounding nation formation in Palestine in the years leading up to the creation of the State of Israel in 1948. She is also a member of the advisory board for CU’s Archive of Post-Holocaust American Judaism\, and affiliated faculty in Middle Eastern Studies at the CU Center for Asian Studies. \n  \nSponsored by the Center for Middle East Studies and Jewish Studies at UCSB.

SUMMARY:Probing "Presence": Photography and Policing in Colonial South Africa
DESCRIPTION:TALK: \nLorena Rizzo (University of Bielefeld & Harvard University) \nProbing “Presence” – Photography and Policing in Colonial South Africa \nThe presentation starts from research conducted in the Western Cape Archives in 2012/3. While working on a collection of photographic albums produced in a Cape Town convict station in the late 19th and early 20th century\, I came across a pair of photographs portraying a convict who bore my surname. I use this archival coincidence or curiosity as an entry point into a methodological and theoretical discussion of the status of photography as a historical source and its appeal as a medium to genealogical research and memory studies. While revisiting some of the classical texts on photography\, among them Roland Barthes’s Camera Lucida\, this paper focuses on Eelco Runia’s notion of “presence.” In sum\, it examines some of the ways in which historical photographs resonate with contemporary negotiations of the past in South Africa. \n  \nThe talk is sponsored by the IHC’s African Studies Research Focus Group\, History (Research Cluster Empires\, Borderlands\, and their Legacies)\, History of Art and Architecture\, Film and Media Studies. \nEvent Flyer

SUMMARY:Holly Roose: 3rd Annual Van Gelderen Graduate Student Lecture
DESCRIPTION:On February 28\, the UCSB History Associates present the 3rd annual Van Gelderen Lecture shocasing graduate student Holly Roose who will talk about her doctoral dissertation: \n“Once you go Black you got to go back: Multicultural Garveyism in the Far West” \nAbout our Speaker:\nHolly Roose has recently completed her doctoral dissertation and will receive her degree soon. In 2015\, she won a campus-wide Graduate Student Association Teaching Prize and also received the History Department’s Outstanding TA Award. \nLecture Background:\nBetween 1916 and 1925\, Marcus Garvey created the largest Black nationalist movement in world history\, in in the American West his work linked up with other such movements in ways that have gone unstudied by scholars. \nOnce you go “Black” (that is\, become interested in the issues of race\, Blackness\, and current social issues)\, you have to go “Back” (become knowledgeable about the U.S.’s shared racial history and dynamics to under-stand our contemporary experiences). “Black Lives Matter” and the violence visited upon on the bodies of Black men and women are not new social phenomena\, but have deep roots in the nation’s foundations. These issues must be examined by investigating their origins\, paths of continuity\, and impacts which flow down from that history. One of the most fruitful areas lies in the nature of Black identity and the articulation of the ob-jectives of racial progress that emerged from the con-cept of Black nationalism as conceived in the early 20th century. These were central to the Civil Rights and Black Power movements of the mid 1950s through the 1970s. \nLuncheon\nA luncheon of bbq beef and chicken will be served at 12:30 pm in the Alumni Hall on the plaza level (second floor) of the Mosher Alumni House. The Alumni House is at the entrance road for Campbell Hall\, next to con-venient parking ($3 on weekends). \nCampus map available at: http://www.tps.ucsb.edu/mapFlash.aspx \nRSVP\nPlease see attached flyer and send in your reservation. \nCost\n$10 for graduate students\, $20 for History Associates members and their guests\, and $25 for non-members.

SUMMARY:Shape Shifters: Journeys Across Terrains of Race and Identity
DESCRIPTION:Conference\, Shape Shifters: Journeys Across Terrains of Race and Identity\, to be held in UCSB’s McCune Conference Center\, March 18-20. Forty scholars from three continents will be on hand. \n\nConference Website\nConference Poster\n\nSpeakers\nPlease join us for two public lectures in the McCune Conference Room (HSSB 6020): \n\nFriday\, March 18\, 9:30-10:30\, Paul Spickard of UCSB’s History Department will present “Not Passing—Shape Shifting: Reflections on Racial Plasticity”\nSaturday\, March 19\, 1:15-2:00\, Angelica Pesarini of Lancaster University’s Sociology Department will present “‘You were too white! I was ashamed!’ Interstitial Negotiations of Blackness in Fascist East Africa”\n\nAbout\nWe are accustomed to thinking of identities—racial\, ethnic\, national\, gendered\, religious—as if they were permanent\, essential\, unalterable features of individuals and groups. A is Black\, B is Jewish\, C is Chinese\, and so are all of the members of their respective families and kin groups\, and so must they remain. Over the last couple of decades\, theorists have begun to posit hybrid identities\, betwixt and between received categories. But still they have pictured these hybrids as more or less static entities in a middle zone. In a new development\, quite recently\, some scholars have begun to see such identities as at least sometimes fluid\, ambiguous\, contingent\, multiple\, and malleable. Those are the scholars who will inhabit this conference. \nThe people about whom these scholars write\, whose lives are the subject of this conference and this book\, are shape shifters. At different times in their lives\, or over generations in their families\, as they have moved from one social context to another\, or as new social contexts have been imposed on them\, their identities have changed from one group to another. This is not racial\, ethnic\, or religious imposture. It is simply the way that people’s lives have unfolded in fluid social circumstances. \nAmong the kinds of forces that have created such fluid social circumstances are migration\, borderlands\, trade\, warfare\, occupation\, colonial imposition\, the creation and dissolution of states and empires\, shifting national and imperial boundaries\, and forcible removal of peoples from their homelands. Each of the stories told in this conference and in this book is intrinsically fascinating. Each also illuminates the ways that individuals have lived their lives and negotiated their social positions amidst one or more of these major forces of social change. We want to understand what happens in the lives of such shape shifters\, and what are the varieties of work that this shape shifting is doing.

SUMMARY:Robin and Robert Jones present "Refugees on the Greek Island of Lesbos"
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, April 14th at 2pm in HSSB 6020\, Robin and Robert Jones will speak about their experiences working with refugees landing on the Greek island of Lesbos. \nTheir presentation is co-sponsored by the History Department\, the Center for Middle East Studies\, and the Argyropoulos Hellenic Studies Endowment. \nRobin and Robert Jones live part of their year on the Greek island of Lesbos\, which is a major landing area for desperate refugees from war-torn Syria\, Afghanistan\, and Iraq. The refugees arrive in rubber rafts\, crossing the strait from Turkey\, under harrowing conditions; many die en route. \nRobin (center) greets a family waiting at a transit station. Women and children composed 50 percent of all refugees who fled to Europe by sea in 2015.\nThe Jones’ have put together a photographic exhibit of the refugees – their arrival and living conditions – and the children’s drawings\, along with a PowerPoint presentation documenting this world event. They were intimately involved in providing assistance and support and now they want to tell the refugees’ stories. \nIt is a story that needs to be told\, and puts a very human face on what otherwise is\, for most people\, a five minute clip on the news. It also provides an important counterpoint to the “immigrant as terrorist” narrative that dominates the news these days. \n  \nYou can read more about Robin and Robert in the Independent: http://www.independent.com/news/2016/mar/10/horror-and-hope-lesbos/

SUMMARY:"The Journey: Domestic Violence Legislation in Ghana" by Prof. Akosua Adomako Ampofo
DESCRIPTION:Daily\, all over the world\, women and children (especially) are abused by intimate partners and family members\, friends and colleagues. While a legal infrastructure and legal responses will not end gender-based violence (GBV) and domestic violence (DV)\, they can provide reliefs for survivors of violence. They can serve as spaces from which GBV and DV can be discussed and explained\, as well where advocacy can occur. This talk chronicles the journey traveled by women’s rights advocates for the passage of DV legislation in Ghana. The advocates faced considerable resistance but also built strong alliances and learned about effective methods of strategizing among different constituencies helpful in other areas of struggle. They learned more about “deconstructing” notions of GBV. The lessons learned in Ghana suggest strategies for mobilizing and advocacy that are useful for women and men globally\, including the United States. \nProfessor Akosua Adomako Ampofo\, Director of the Institute of African Studies\, University of Ghana\, Legon\, is a sociologist who has published widely on gender (including masculinities)\, sexuality\, children and socialization\, and feminism. She was the first head of the Centre for Gender Studies and Advocacy at the University of Ghana. \nOrganized by the IHC’s African Studies RFG\, with co-sponsorship from the Hull Chair in Feminist Studies and the Department of History. \n\nDownload event flyer\nSee more events sponsored by the IHC’s African Studies RFG

SUMMARY:The Just Prince and the Nation: Muslim Patriotism and the Politics of Notables in late Ottoman Egypt\, 1860s - Adam Mestyan (Harvard University)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Adam Mestyan (Harvard University) \nAbout the Talk:\nIn this presentation Mestyan will argue that in nineteenth-century Ottoman Egypt the symbolic unification between the Ottoman governor (khedive) and the homeland was based on vocabularies of kingship in the Koran and in Arab-Persian-Ottoman traditions. During this process of constructing patriotism by rural men of distinction\, the perceived ‘justice’ of the Muslim prince meant the local elite’s participation in state affairs and in rural capitalist enterprises. \nBased on archival documents\, petitions to the ruler by local village notables\, and Arabic political poetry and plays\, this presentation also introduces the notion of Muslim patriotism as an ideological tool of legitimating power in khedivial Egypt before and during the British occupation.” \n\nAbout the Presenter:\nAdam Mestyan is a historian of the modern Middle East\, specialized in cultural and social history. He has been undertaking research in various archives\, especially in the Egyptian National Archives. At the moment\, he is a Junior Fellow of the Society of Fellows at Harvard University. Previously\, he taught at the Faculty of Oriental Studies at Oxford University and was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the “Europe in the Middle East – the Middle East in Europe” program of the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin (Institute of Advanced Studies). He holds a PhD in History from the Central European University and another PhD in Art Theory from the Eotvos Lorand University (both in Budapest). His articles were published in the International Journal of Middle East Studies\, the Journal of Semitic Philology\, Die Welt des Islams\, and Muqarnas. His first book\, Arab Patriotism – The Ideology and Culture of Power in Modern Egypt is forthcoming at Princeton University Press. \nSponsored by the Center for Middle East Studies

SUMMARY:"Survivors into Minorities: Armenians in Post-Genocide Turkey" with Lerna Ekmekcioglu (MIT)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:\nLerna Ekmekcioglu is McMillan-Stewart Associate Professor of History at Massachusetts Institute of Technology where she is also affiliated with Women and Gender Studies Program. She specializes on Turkish and Armenian lands in the beginning of the 20th century and the history of Armenian feminism. In 2006 she co-edited a volume in Turkish about the first five Armenian feminists of the Ottoman Empire and Turkish Republic. Her most recent book\, Recovering Armenia: The Limits of Belonging in Post-Genocide Turkey\, came out from Stanford University Press in early 2016. \nAbout the Talk\nThis talk follows the trajectories of the survivors of the 1915 Armenian Genocide who remained inside Turkish borders after the signing of the 1918 Mudros Armistice (and during the Allied occupation years of Istanbul) and after the 1923 establishment of the new country as the Turkish Republic. How did the Kemalist state treat the remaining Armenians? What were Armenians’ responses to the new (but also old) Turkish regime? I will discuss multiple strategies Armenians –including feminist Armenians– improvised in order to cohabit with unapologetic perpetrators and survive the new Turkey.

SUMMARY:Farina Mir: "Reconsidering Modernity in an Indian Vernacular: Punjabi Literature and the Writing of Colonial History"
DESCRIPTION:FARINA MIR\nUniversity of Michigan\, Associate Professor of History \nKAPANY ENDOWMENT VISITING LECTURE SERIES \nAbout the Talk\nThis talk considers the literary history of one Indian vernacular tradition\, Punjabi\, to interrogate assumptions about the temporality of literary history embedded in today’s normative mode of writing the history of literature\, assumptions critically linked to notions of modernity. Identifying at least two types of temporality in existing literary history\, an even temporality\, on the one hand\, and one that emphasizes rupture\, on the other it argues for the adoption of a third mode: “lumpy time”\, a concept drawn from the work of sociologist William Sewell. The broader aim of the talk is to show how assessments of modernity in literary history mirror a broader tension in South Asian historiography between indigenous agency and colonialism. \nDownload event flyer

SUMMARY:“The Visual Archive: Ho-Chunk Cultural Performance\, Modern Labor\, and Survivance in Wisconsin\, 1879-1960.”
DESCRIPTION:This presentation explores the intersections of photographic images\, family history\, tourism\, and Ho-Chunk survivance through an examination of two photographic collections housed at the Wisconsin Historical Society: the Charles Van Schaick Collection and the H.H. Bennett Collection. The Van Schaick collection includes nearly taken between 1879-1936\, and the H.H. Bennett Collection is comprised of hundreds of images of tribal members taken from 1865-1960. Also contained within the Bennett Collection are film reels of the Stand Rock Indian Ceremonial\, a major tourist attraction that employed tribal members in Wisconsin Dells\, WI from the 1920s through the 1960s. The stories that these images convey of the importance of kinship\, place\, modern labor\, cultural performance\, settler colonialism\, and survivance are the central themes of the Ho-Chunk experience in the 20th century\, and my presentation will address these intersecting themes and the ongoing meanings that these images have for contemporary tribal citizens. \nAmy Lonetree\, a member of The Public Historian editorial board\, is author of Decolonizing Museums: Representing Native America in National and Tribal Museums (University of North Carolina Press\, 2012)\, and co-editor with Amanda Cobb of The National Museum of the American Indian: Critical Conversations (University of Nebraska Press\, 2008). \nSponsored by the UCSB Public History Program\, the Department of Anthropology\, and the Department of History. \nLonetree Poster for the event flyer.

SUMMARY:"Was the Rise of Islam a Black Swan Event?" Michael Cook\, 2016 R. Stephen Humphreys Distinguished Visiting Scholar
DESCRIPTION:A Black Swan Event is by definition a highly improbable happening with a massive impact. No one questions the impact of rise of Islam\, but just how improbable was it? Two of its central features look very unlikely against the background of earlier history: the appearance among the Arabs of a new\nmonotheistic religion\, and the formation of a powerful state in Arabia. Does that add up to two Black Swans\, or do they cancel out? \nMichael Cook is the Class of 1943 University Professor of Near Eastern Studies at Princeton University. He is the author of Commanding Right and Forbidding Wrong in Islamic Thought and A Brief History of the Human Race\, among other books\, and he is also the general editor of The New Cambridge History of Islam. \nSponsored by the Center for Middle East Studies\, R. Stephen Humphreys Distinguished\nLecture Series \nDownload flyer
