Professor Farber’s talk was part of UC Santa Barbara’s popular New Visions of Nature\, Science\, and Religion initiative.\nUCTV premiere date and time: January 7\, 2008 at 3:00 p.m. The program will be on air until January 13.\nFor other air dates and times\, see the full UCTV schedule.

Don’t miss this special event! Seating is limited. Make reservations now with the UCSB Office of Community Relations\, (805) 893-4388.\nProfessor Daniels will discuss the Santa Barbara Blues Society and the resurgence of blues. White blues bands emerged in the U.S. and England in the 1960s. Gradually some fans sought out the older and neglected African American bluesmen for more authentic renditions of the music. The white blues fans’ passion for the music led them to a systematic study of Black history and culture. They hosted FM radio programs\, wrote liner notes sponsored concerts\, and formed blues societies. In Santa Barbara we have the oldest blues society of its kind. Professor Daniels has interviewed a number of its founders\, members\, and volunteers to document the history and role of the society in the resurgence of the Black American blues tradition. \nProfessor Douglas Daniels celebrated the History Associates’ 10th anniversary as a lecturer at a similar jazz afternoon 10 years ago. A professor of History and Black Studies at UCSB since 1979\, he is the recipient of numerous fellowships\, most recently on a lecture/teaching Fulbright fellowship in Japan\, fall 2007. He is the author of Pioneer Urbanites: A Social and Cultural History of Black San Francisco (1980 and 1991)\, Lester Leaps In: The Life and Times of Lester “Pres” Young (2002)\, One O’clock Jump: The Unforgettable History of the Oklahoma City Blue Devils (2005)\, and a number of reviews\, articles\, and essays. \nFollowing the talk\, Perline Thurston\, special guest vocalist\, will join Santa Barbara’s own renowned jazz trio with Frank Frost (Professor Emeritus) on piano\, Hank Allen on bass\, and Tom Devaney on drums. \nThis event is sponsored by the UCSB History Associates.

Their reactions — both during the Third Reich and later — raise a number of vexing questions. Why did they behave in such varied ways? How truthful were they when giving oral testimony about their pasts? Do their responses have any relevance to the way in which we react to injustice today?\nAlison Owings is the author of FRAUEN: German Women Recall the Third Reich\, a New York Times “Notable Book of the Year.” This poignant collection of interviews was described by the Los Angeles Times Book Review as “a remarkable work of history that stands out from the vast library of World War II studies for its sheer intimacy and its sometimes startling perspectives. . . .” \nat the Bronfman Family Jewish Community Center\n524 Chapala St.\, Santa Barbara URL:https://www.history.ucsb.edu/events/german-women-recall-the-third-reich/ LOCATION:CA END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
