SUMMARY:John McK. Camp\, The Archaeology of Democracy
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:\nDr. John McK. Camp\nDirector of the Athenian Agora Excavations \n  \nEvent Description: \nAncient Athens is generally regarded as the birthplace of the world’s first democracy. The administrative center of Athenian democracy was the Agora\, the main square of the city\, which has been under excavation for the past eighty-five years. Here have been found the buildings which housed the government (magistrates’ offices\, law courts\, and assembly places)\, along with the objects used every day to make sure the system worked as it should (laws and regulations inscribed on stone\, allotment machines\, water clocks\, and ballots). A visitor to the agora in antiquity would have occasion to see all three branches of the government in action: executive\, legislative\, and judicial. This lecture will illuminate the archaeological material that sheds light on the development and practice of this political phenomenon. \n  \nEvent Flyer:

SUMMARY:Film Showing: Run Boy Run
DESCRIPTION:Kristallnacht Commemoration and Santa Barbara Premiere\nWinner of 10 Film Festival Audience Awards \n  \nA superlative saga of courage and compassion\, Run Boy Run tells the extraordinary true story of a Polish boy who seeks the kindness of others in his solitary struggle to outlast the Nazi occupation and keep alive his Jewish faith. \nEscaping the Warsaw ghetto at the behest of his father\, nine-year old Srulik (movingly portrayed by twin child actors Andrzej and Kamil Tkacz) flees to the woods. There\, he learns to hide from SS patrols and scour for food\, until loneliness and the harsh onset of winter drive him back to civilization. Taken in by a kindhearted farmer’s wife (Elisabeth Duda)\, he is given shelter and a new identity. Passing himself off as Jurek\, a Christian war orphan\, the intrepid boy traverses the countryside from village to village\, working as a farmhand under an ever-present threat of persecution. Some will help him survive and others will betray him. Just when it seems his childhood memories and identity could be lost forever\, Jurek’s harrowing journey culminates in a powerhouse conclusion and postscript. \nAn unforgettable cinematic experience featuring exceptional performances\, arresting cinematography and transcendent musical score\, Run Boy Run is directed by Academy Award-winner Pepe Danquart and based on the bestselling Holocaust novel by Israeli author Uri Orlev. Newcomer Andy Tkacz plays Jurek together with a cast that includes Katarzyna Bargielowska (The Pianist)\, Rainer Bock (The White Ribbon)\, Jeanette Hain (Poll) and Itay Tiran (Lebanon).

SUMMARY:Film Showing: Valentino's Ghost
DESCRIPTION:Hailed by the Village Voice as “both sobering and illuminating\,” Michael Singh’s documentary exposes how America’s foreign policy agenda in the Middle East drives U.S. media portrayals of Arabs and Muslims.

SUMMARY:Orit Bashkin\, From Palestinian Village to an Iraqi Transit Camp
DESCRIPTION:Event Description:\nOver 130\,000 Iraqi Jews arrived in Israel during the 1950s; they were forced to settle in transit camps where they lived in horrendous poverty. Previous scholarship on this migration focused on the state and its actions towards\, and representations of\, these newcomers. Later generations of scholars highlighted the resistance of Mizrahi men to the state\, in the form of mass demonstrations\, urban riots\, and the construction of political parties. This talk\, in contrast\, examines the Iraqi individuals in the camps: how family life took shape when families lived in crowded tents and wooden shacks; how Iraqi women raised children in the most dreadful conditions; and how children struggled to survive cold winters and loss of any sense of security. The focus on daily lives in the transit camps\, I argue\, changes the ways in which we understand resistance. I focus in particular on Iraqis forced to settle in transit camps built on the ruins of the Palestinian villages\, Kafar ‘Ana\, Khayriyya and Sakiyya and analyze the relationships between the native population displaced\, the Palestinians\, and the new population\, forced to settle there\, the Iraqi Jews. \n  \nAbout the Speaker:\nOrit Bashkin got her Ph.D. from Princeton University (2004) and her BA (1995) and MA (1999) from Tel Aviv University. She is now a professor of modern Arab history in the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations at the University of Chicago. Her publications include 25 book chapters and articles on the history of Arab-Jews in Iraq\, on Iraqi history and on Arabic literature. She has also edited a book Sculpturing Culture in Egypt [le-fasel tarbut be-mitzrayim] with Israel Gershoni and Liat Kozma\, which included translations into Hebrew of seminal works by Egyptian intellectuals. She is the author of the following books: The Other Iraq – Pluralism and Culture in Hashemite Iraq (Stanford University Press\, 2009 and Paperback\, 2010)\, New Babylonians: A History of Jews in Modern Iraq (Stanford University Press\, 2012). \n  \nEvent Flyer:

SUMMARY:Hussein Ibish\, Anxious Allies: The Arab Gulf States and the Iran Nuclear Deal
DESCRIPTION:Event Description: \nIsrael’s opposition to the Iran nuclear deal is well-known. But how are other U.S. allies in the Middle East\, especially Arab Gulf states like Saudi Arabia\, the UAE\, Qatar and Kuwait\, reacting to the agreement? Are the Sunni Arab countries on a collision course with Iran and its allies\, or is some degree of accommodation possible? Dr. Hussein Ibish examines these and similar questions\, and considers policy options facing the United States. \n  \nHussein Ibish is a Senior Resident Scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington. He is a regular contributor to The National (UAE)\, The International New York Times\, and many other U.S. and Middle Eastern publications. He is the author What’s Wrong With the One-State Agenda? Why Ending the Occupation and Peace with Israel is Still the Palestinian National Goal (American Task Force on Palestine\, 2009). From 2001 to 2008 Dr. Ibish was the editor and principal author of three major studies of hate crimes and discrimination against Arab Americans\, commissioned by the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. He co-authored (with Ali Abunimah) The Palestinian Right of Return (ADC\, 2001) and co-edited (with Saliba Sarsar) Principles and Pragamatism (Verso\, 2006). Ibish previously served as a senior fellow at the American Task Force on Palestine\, as executive director of the Hala Salaam Maksoud Foundation for Arab-American Leadership from 2004 to 2009\, and as communications director for the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. \n  \nEvent Flyer:

SUMMARY:Jason M. Kelly: The Anthropocene's Great Divergence
DESCRIPTION:In the early years of this century\, the Nobel Prize winning chemist Paul Crutzen popularized the idea that humans had entered a new geological age\, the “Anthropocene.” This concept\, he argued\, captured the fact that over the past 250 years humans and their technologies had reshaped the planet\, permanently transforming its complex biophysical systems. His idea caught fire across the disciplines\, and in 2015\, entire academic journals are devoted to the Anthropocene. \n\nJason M. Kelly’s talk\, “The Anthropocene’s Great Divergence\,” will examine the development of multiple\, competing cultures of knowledge about the Anthropocene over the last several decades. Focusing on disciplinary orientations and theoretical models in the sciences\, social sciences\, humanities\, and arts\, it argues that underlying discussions about the Anthropocene are conflicting historical narratives. The historical narratives that scientists and policy makers ultimately integrate into their models may have profound global socio-political implications\, especially given the centrality of the Anthropocene to contemporary discussions about environmental policy. \n\nFor information on Dr. Kelly’s collaborative project\, Rivers of the Anthropocene\, please visit the following URL: http://rivers.iupui.edu/cms/

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.
