SUMMARY:Gallatin Coffeehouse on the #METOO Movement
DESCRIPTION:Join Gallatin faculty\, students\, and alumni for a discussion of #MeToo\, its consequences\, and the complexities of organizing for social change in which sexuality\, gender\, race\, class\, and access to political and economic power matter. Josy Jablons(BA ’17)\, Annie Felix (BA ’19)\, and Gallatin faculty members Sharon Friedman\,Rosanne Kennedy\, Ritty Lukose\, and Sara Murphy will speak; George Shulmanwill moderate. \nThe #MeToo Movement was begun by African American civil rights activist Tarana Burke in 2006\, in the name of women who had survived violence\, with a focus on low-income women of color. The Movement gained momentum when movie producer Harvey Weinstein was accused of sexual assault by women in Hollywood. Since then women from many industries and positions in the workplace\, have come forward to tell their stories of sexual harassment\, intimidation\, and assault. Others have elided traditional boundaries between the private and public spheres and have told their stories of sexual harassment. In response\, powerful and influential men have resigned\, been fired\, withdrawn from public life. Some have suffered no consequences at all. \nAll who attend are asked to respect the privacy and confidentiality of those who share.

SUMMARY:Indocumentales-En el Séptimo día/On The Seventh Day
DESCRIPTION:The Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies at New York University (CLACS)\, Cinema Tropical\, and the World Council of Peoples for the United Nations / What Moves You?\, are proud to announce the official re-launch of INDOCUMENTALES – a film and conversation series committed to exploring the multiplicity of Latin American migrant experiences in our country through compassionate representation and critical dialogue. \nINDOCUMENTALES began in May of 2010 as Indocumentales: the US/Mexico Interdependent Film Series with screenings and panel discussions at New York University’s King Juan Carlos I of Spain Center and other venues throughout the five boroughs including the Americas Society and Cervantes Institute in Midtown Manhattan\, the Dwyer Cultural Center in Harlem\, the Casita Maria Center for the Arts in the Bronx\, the Beacon Center for the Arts in Bushwick\, Brooklyn\, and the Queens Museum in Corona\, New York. It since traveled across the U.S.\, as well as to Mexico and Canada\, engaging diverse communities in reflecting on their relationship to the questions posed in the films. \nFor the fall of 2018 re-launch\, INDOCUMENTALES is returning to its origins in New York City with two films that focus on immigrant experiences in this city. We are proud to present David Riker’s critically-acclaimed film La Ciudad (1998) followed by Jim McKay’s most recent feature En El Séptimo Día (2018). Twenty years between their releases\, the films nevertheless employ similar narrative structures and production models: both are filmed on location in New York\, in Spanish\, with majority non-professional actors. Moreover\, both films\, through contrasting but complimentary styles\, speak to the struggle of newly-arrived Latin American migrants for survival\, respect\, and meaning in unfamiliar territories. \nThe series is free and open to the public. All screenings are followed by panel discussions meant to bring together filmmakers\, scholars\, activists\, policy makers\, and community representatives concerned with the fortification of immigrant rights. \n____________________________________________________________________________ \n\nEN EL SEPTIMO DIA (Jim McKay\, USA\, 2018\, 92 min. In Spanish with English subtitles) \nEn el Séptimo Día is a fiction feature following a group of undocumented immigrants living in Sunset Park\, Brooklyn over the course of seven days. Bicycle delivery guys\, construction workers\, dishwashers\, deli workers\, and cotton candy vendors\, they work long hours six days a week and then savor their day of rest on Sundays on the soccer fields of Sunset Park. José\, a bicycle delivery worker\, is the team’s captain – young\, talented\, hardworking and responsible. When José’s team makes it to the finals\, he and his teammates are thrilled. But his boss throws a wrench into the celebration when he tells José he has to work on Sunday\, the day of the finals. José tries to reason with his boss or replace himself\, but his efforts fail. If he doesn’t work on Sunday\, his job and his future will be on the line. But if he doesn’t stand up for himself and his teammates\, his dignity will be crushed. Shot in the neighborhoods of Sunset Park\, Park Slope\, and Gowanus\, En el Séptimo Día is a humane\, sensitive\, and humorous window into a world rarely seen. The film’s impact is made quietly\, with restraint and respect for the individual experiences\, everyday challenges\, and small triumphs of its characters. \n\nTrailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYg3mAJTWSE \n\nAbout the Director: \nJim McKay (Writer/Director/Producer) is a filmmaker and co-founder\, along with Michael Stipe\, of C-Hundred Film Corp.

His second feature as a director was Our Song (1999)\, which premiered at the 2000 Sundance Film Festival\, played at New Directors/New Films in 2000\, and was distributed theatrically in the U.S. by IFC Films. McKay’s third feature\, Everyday People (2004)\, was selected as the Opening Night Film of New Directors/New Films 2004 and played at festivals around the U.S. before showing on HBO. His fourth feature\, Angel Rodriguez\, co-written with Hannah Weyer\, premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in 2005\, had its U.S. premiere at MoMA and showed on HBO in fall 2006.

SUMMARY:Jean-Paul Sartre\, The French Revolution and the Present-Sophie Wahnich
DESCRIPTION:SOPHIE WAHNICH\, HISTORIENNE\, PARIS\, LE 30 AVRIL 2015.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nL’appréciation politique et intellectuelle de la Révolution française doit moins\, depuis 1945\, aux historiens qu’aux philosophes\, moins à l’évolution de l’historiographie comme telle qu’à la manière dont des penseurs de première importance se sont mêlés de penser la Révolution française. Les querelles philosophiques des années 1960\, sur les fonctions respectives de l’histoire\, de l’anthropologie\, des sciences dites humaines\, et de la philosophie ont installé la Révolution française au cœur des débats. Le plus fameux d’entre eux a opposé Jean-Paul Sartre et Claude Lévi-Strauss\, et\, dans son sillage\, Michel Foucault a promu\, contre Sartre\, une conception scientifique du savoir sur l’homme où la Révolution française n’a plus eu aucun intérêt. Mais personne n’en est resté là. \nQuel est aujourd’hui le legs de ces querelles\, pour les historiens et pour la manière de concevoir l’expérience politique de la Révolution française? \nSophie Wahnich est directrice de recherche au CNRS (IIAC/EHESS/PSL). Elle travaille entre histoire\, anthropologie et études politiques sur la Révolution française. Elle interroge notre présent en écoutant les conseils\, avis et perplexités vécues de nos ancêtres révolutionnaires. Pour faire passage entre ces figures fantomatiques et fortes et nous\, elle fait confiance aux émotions. Elle a plus particulièrement travaillé sur les émotions comme faculté de juger pendant le moment révolutionnaire et sur les enjeux philosophiques de cette perspective historiographique. \nBibliographie: L’impossible citoyen l’étranger dans le discours de la Révolution française\, Paris Albin Michel 1997 (réédition semi-poche 2010); La liberté ou la mort\, essai sur la terreur et le terrorisme\, La fabrique édition 2003 (traduction en anglais chez Verso\, en allemand chez Matthes & Seitz); La longue patience du peuple\, 1792 naissance de la République\, Paris\, Payot 2008; Les émotions la Révolution française et le présent\, Paris CNRS éditions 2009; La Revolution française n’est pas un mythe\, Paris Klinsieck 2017. \nIn French \nCo-sponsored with Department of French Literature\, Thought\, and Culture and Institute of French Studies
