SUMMARY:Palestine\, Academic Freedom\, and the Demands of Civility
DESCRIPTION:Professor Steven Salaita is at the center of an international protest against academic censorship and the silencing of dissent. During the summer of 2014\, he tweeted about Israel’s assault on Gaza. As a result\, he was “de-hired” from his position as tenured professor in American Indian Studies at the University of Illinois on the basis of “civility” when wealthy donors objected to his statement. Dr. Salaita’s most recent books\, The Holy Land in Transit: Colonialism and the Quest for Canaan\, analyses the rhetoric and myths of settlement in both North America and Israel and “patterns that connect Indigenous writing in both locations.” Other books include Israel’s Dead Soul; Arab American Literary Fictions\, Cultures & Politics; and Anti-Arab Racism in the USA.\n*The UN estimates 1\,523 civilians including 519 children were among the 2\,192 dead in Gaza during the summer of 2014. Amnesty International condemned Israel for “displaying callous indifference” and flouting ‘laws of war” in their “disproportionate” attacks on Gaza.\nPalestine\, Academic Freedom\, and the Demands of Civility \nSponsored by the UCSB Departments of History and Anthropology\, The Center for New Racial Studies\, Center for Research on Women & Social Justice\, Hull Chair\, and Carsey-Wolf Center \nhm 2/9/15

SUMMARY:"Sub  Conscious"
DESCRIPTION:“Sub  Conscious” is a rather sardonic recounting of filmmaker Mel Halbach’s experiences  aboard a nuclear missile submarine in the 1970s.  Halbach himself will  be present\, and he will engage in a brief colloquy with the audience  after the film screening.\nDrawing on personal experience\, Halbach takes us on a  journey through a Cold War underworld–aboard a nuclear-missile  submarine prepared to fight World War III.  Through interviews\, stock  footage\, and animation\, Mr. Halbach recreates the extraordinary life  he and his shipmates led as they prowled the ocean depths with their  trigger fingers at the ready\, sometimes relieving their anxiety with  recreational drug use. After the film screening\, Mr. Halbach will  engage in a colloquy with the audience. \nMel Halbach’s curiosity about people sustains his 25-year career as an  independent filmmaker.  Frequent travels to Vietnam in the 1990s  culminated in his award-winning film “The Long Haired Warriors\,” a  documentary about Vietnamese women who were soldiers\, activists\, and  prisoners of war.  Halbach has filmed stories from the wartorn  countries of Southeast Asia\, Central America\, and Eastern Europe and  from the sandblasted desert of the Burning Man festival in Nevada.   His last film\, “Sub Conscous\,” is about his experiences aboard a  nuclear-missile submarine during the Cold War. \nThe film screening is free and open to the public; refreshments will be served. \nThe public is welcome to this disturbing but entertaining event!\nSponsored by the Center for Cold War Studies. \nhm 2/12/15
