SUMMARY:Book Discussion: Looking Like a Language\, Sounding Like a Race by Jonathan Rosa
DESCRIPTION:How are Latinxs racialized through Language? Stanford professor Jonathan Rosa will be discussing his new book Looking Like a Language\, Sounding Like a Race: Raciolinguistic Ideologies and the Learning of Latinidad. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted in a predominantly Latinx Chicago public high school and its surrounding communities\, this presentation approaches Latinidad as a crucial site from which to understand the creation of racial\, linguistic\, and national borders\, as well as to reimagine worlds beyond these borders. Co-sponsored by NYU’s Anthropology Department. \nJonathan Rosa\, PhD\, is Assistant Professor of Anthropology and Linguistics at Stanford. As a sociocultural and linguistic anthropologist\, Jonathan Rosa’s research theorizes the co-naturalization of language and race as a key feature of modern governance. Specifically\, he analyzes the interplay between youth socialization\, raciolinguistic formations\, and structural inequity in urban contexts.

SUMMARY:Migration as Survival in the Era of Climate Crisis
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Asian/Pacific/American Institute at NYU. Co-sponsored by the NYU Center for Latin American & Caribbean Studies and the Department of Art & Public Policy\, NYU Tisch School of the Arts.\n \nRising sea levels\, drought\, food insecurity\, intensified hurricanes\, and wildfires are some of the many markers of the exacerbating climate crisis. Despite the clear and present danger of climate change\, governments are failing to take the action needed to stave off its worst effects. Meanwhile\, tens of millions of people\, primarily from poor communities and the Global South\, are displaced by climate impacts every year only to be met by rising xenophobia\, anti-migrant sentiment\, and militarized borders. This panel brings together journalists\, activists\, frontline organizers\, academics\, and artists to discuss the inextricable links between migration and climate catastrophe. We consider what an intersectional movement for migrant rights and climate justice could look like\, the threat posed by right-wing populist governments to the rights of migrants\, and the role of arts and culture in creating bold visions for a just future. \nFeaturing Oscar A. Chacón (Executive Director\, Alianza Americas)\, Oliver Milman (Reporter\, The Guardian)\, Tiara R. Na’puti (Assistant Professor\, University of Colorado Boulder)\, and Ninaj Raoul (Executive Director\, Haitian Women for Haitian Refugees). Curated and moderated by Thanushka (Thanu) Yakupitiyage\, the A/P/A Institute at NYU 2018-19 Artist-in-Residence. \nThis venue is on the first floor and is accessible for wheelchair users. Restrooms (which are gender-segregated) are accessible via elevator. If you have any questions or need any accommodations\, please email apa.rsvp@nyu.edu. \nOscar A. Chacón is a co‐founder and executive director of Alianza Americas\, a Chicago-based national network of Latin American immigrant‐led and immigrant serving organizations in the US. Chacón is an immigrant from El Salvador. He has been an organizer and a leader on community justice issues at the local\, national\, and international levels for over thirty years. He has occupied leadership positions in multiple organizations including Oxfam America\, Centro Presente\, the Northern California Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights\, and Heartland Alliance for Human Needs and Human Rights. Chacón is a frequent spokesperson\, domestically and internationally\, on economic\, social\, political\, and cultural issues affecting Latin American immigrant communities\, including the nexus between human mobility\, economic inequality\, white supremacy\, and racial justice. Alianza Americas mission is to improve the quality of life of Latin American immigrant communities in the US\, as well as of peoples throughout the Americas. \nOliver Milman is the environment correspondent for Guardian US\, based in New York. He regularly reports on how climate change is altering the natural world\, with a particular focus on the communities most vulnerable to these consequences. Before coming to the US\, he covered the environment for the Guardian in Australia. His role has taken him to the melting Alaskan Arctic\, the wildfire-scorched northern California\, the magnificent yet ailing Great Barrier Reef\, and people living in the shadow of the petrochemical industry in Texas. Originally from the UK\, Millman has previously covered business and politics for a range of print and online publications. \nTiara R. Na’puti (Chamoru) is assistant professor in the Department of Communication at University of Colorado Boulder with faculty affiliations in the Center for Communication and Democratic Engagement (CDE) and the Center for Native American Indigenous Studies (CNAIS). Her scholarship and activism addresses colonization\, militarization\, Indigenous social movements\, and Indigenous cultural discourses—particularly throughout Oceania. She is currently working on a book project that examines the US military buildup plans for the Mariana Islands archipelago and how military aggression fuels the dangerous impacts of climate change. This work examines the communicative dimensions of resistance and connections among Indigenous-led struggles to protect sacred water and land from militarization and extractive industries. \nNinaj Raoul is a co-founder and community organizer at Haitian Women for Haitian Refugees (HWHR) in New York\, an organization founded in 1992 to respond to the human needs of Haitian refugees and immigrants in the US fleeing persecution. Through education\, community organizing\, leadership development\, and collective action\, HWHR members empower themselves as they struggle for social and economic justice. Raoul is a Petra Foundation Fellow\, and a recipient of the Union Square Awards\, National Organization of Woman – Susan B. Anthony Award\, and Dr. Antonia Pantoja Bilingual Advocacy Award. She continues to mobilize her community to deliver services\, organize disaster relief efforts\, and fight for workers’ rights. She travels to and from Haiti\, where HWHR has provided solidarity support to women-run organizations that respond to manmade and natural disasters. Raoul seeks to raise awareness of the detrimental effects of the US agricultural subsidy programs that dump excess crop in Haiti\, as well as other root causes of migration. \nThanushka (Thanu) Yakupitiyage is a long-time immigrant rights activist\, media professional\, cultural organizer\, and multidisciplinary artist/DJ based in New York City. For close to seven years\, she worked for the New York Immigration Coalition (NYIC)\, where she headed the organization’s communications and media relations strategy. Through her work at NYIC\, she became an immigration policy expert\, using her skills in media and communications to shift narratives on immigration and immigrants themselves. She was a lead organizer in recent efforts to push back against Trump’s first executive orders that mandated a Muslim Ban\, and increased enforcement and raids against immigrant communities. Most recently\, she has taken on the role of leading US communications for 350.org and bringing a migration perspective to the critical work of climate justice. As a cultural organizer and DJ under the name Ushka\, she has performed across North America and she uses her artistry to create intentional community spaces for queer and immigrant people of color. Yakupitiyage holds an MA in communications from the University of Massachusetts Amherst\, and a BA in critical media studies and international development from Hampshire College. She is the 2018-19 Artist-in-Residence at the A/P/A Institute at NYU.\nPhoto by Brooke Anderson\, Survival Media Agency (provided by 350.org).

SUMMARY:A Legal Empowerment Approach to Addressing Justice Barriers in the U.S. Immigration System
DESCRIPTION:This talk will explore an ongoing participatory evaluation project being carried out by the New Sanctuary Coalition (NSC) in collaboration with NYU Law’s Global Justice Clinic and Robert L. Bernstein Institute for Human Rights. \nThe collaboration assesses NSC initiatives aimed at building the power and agency of families as they move through the immigration process. NSC stands in solidarity with those facing detention and deportation\, who they call “friends” rather than immigrants\, and coordinates a network of volunteers who accompany friends to court\, provide legal and non-legal advice at a weekly pro-se clinic\, and build relationships with NSC friends\, seeing up close the violence and injustice of the immigration system. \nThe Global Justice Clinic and Bernstein Institute collaborate with NSC to evaluate the efficacy of the NSC’s approach\, with a goal of producing literature highlighting the impact of legal empowerment methods to addressing justice barriers in the U.S. Immigration system. \nAbout the Conflict\, Security\, and Development Series \nEach Tuesday\, the Conflict\, Security\, and Development Series examines new research\, discusses creative policy approaches\, and highlights recent innovations in responding to the challenges of security and development in conflict and post-conflict situations. \nThe series is co-presented by the Center for Human Rights and Global Justice at NYU Law School\, the Center for Global Affairs at NYU’s School for Professional Studies\, The Program in International Relations at NYU’s GSAS\, the Robert L. Bernstein Institute for Human Rights\, and the Office of International Programs at NYU Wagner. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Film Screening: "Celda 211” by Daniel Monzón
DESCRIPTION:NYUSPS CALA Spring 2019 Film Series: Crime and Punishment around the World: Incarceration on Film \nScreening of “Celda 211” Dir. Daniel Monzón (Spain\, 2009). Introduced by Felipe Vara del Rey (NYU Tisch\, Film) \nAbout the Film: The story of two men on different sides of a prison riot – the inmate leading the rebellion and the young guard trapped in the revolt\, who poses as a prisoner in a desperate attempt to survive the ordeal. \nWinner of eight Goya Awards including Best Film. \nAbout the Film Series \nThe notion of crime as an illegal act that is punishable by a government authority implies a clear differentiation between right and wrong. Mass incarceration further symbolizes the concept that a physical space drawn in bars and walls can impose a simple order onto a world that defies borders and neat categories. The purpose of punishment is to avenge\, to incapacitate\, and to deter\, but does it work? Is justice served more than it is not? And might the abuses of mass incarceration be inherent to its practice? This series of international films takes a closer look at different interpretations of crime and punishment and what they say about a country’s values\, collective identities\, and understanding of history. \nSponsored by NYU SPS Center for Applied Liberal Studies.

SUMMARY:SCREENING – SPEAK UP (OUVRIR LA VOIX)
DESCRIPTION:With director Amandine Gay in conversation with art historian Sandrine Colard and poet/scholar Sylvie Kandé as respondent. In this installation of the 21st Century/New African and African Diaspora Writings and Arts Series\, women of African descent in France and Belgium converse about what it means to be a woman today and belong to the Afro community in the documentary film Speak Up (Ouvrir la voix) (2017\, 122 min.). By sharing their experiences and aspirations for the future\, they speak up and take control again of their own representation. \n  \n \nAmandine Gay is a political author. Following her graduation from the Institute of Political Studies in Lyon\, France in 2007 with a masters in communication\, Amandine joined the Conservatory of Dramatic Art in Paris 16 and began performing in theatre and television. Since 2012\, she has also been working as a screenwriter and contributing as a freelance journalist for Slate.fr. \nIn 2014 she took on directing with a reportage on the #BoycottExhibitB demonstrations\, and that same year\, she started working on her documentary\, SPEAK UP\, a feature-length about francophone Black women. Most recently\, Amandine authored the preface of the first French translation of bell hooks’ seminal\, Ain’t I A Woman. She is currently living in Montreal\, completing her second master’s degree in sociology\, focusing on transracial adoption. \nShe is a director\, writer\, freelance journalist and speaker. She is regularly asked to speak about Afro-feminism\, intersectionality and adoption at events such as the Toronto and Winnipeg Spur Festival. Students were able to hear her at the University of Edinburgh\, Université du Québec à Montréal\, University of Ottawa\, University of Lausanne\, Université Lumière Lyon 2\, École de Recherche Graphique in Brussels\, and the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in Paris and others. \nDIRECTOR’S NOTE \nSPEAK UP is born out of my desire to occupy public space and to explain why the intersection of discriminations faced by Black women in France and Belgium is as problematic as it is political. \nSPEAK UP is my response to the need for Black francophone women to reclaim the narrative since we are too often silenced or presented as passive victims. This is also a celebration of our diversity as Afro-descendants: Black women born in France and Belgium\, or elsewhere\, from French\, Belgian or immigrant parents\, from all kinds of paths\, faiths\, sexual orientation\, etc. \nSPEAK UP is a political portrait of Black women in francophone Europe\, revealing the complexity and diversity of our lives and identities. Beyond personal anecdotes lie the political issues that Black women have to face. That’s the reason why I chose the form of a conversation through intertwined narratives so that my experience could be nuanced and enriched by that of other Black women. \nSPEAK UP is my way of celebrating the history of Black women resistance\, who\, since marooning\, through creolity\, pan-Africanism\, negritude and Afro-feminism have always invented tools enabling them not to be silenced. This is for those who fought before us and a testimony to those who will come after us. \n ―Amandine GAY \n\n Sandrine Colard is Assistant Professor of African Art History at Rutgers University-Newark. She holds a Ph.D. in art history from Columbia University\, and a M.A. in Africana Studies from New York University. Prior to joining Rutgers-Newark\, she was a post-doctoral fellow at the Institut National d’Histoire de l’Art  (INHA\, Paris\, France) and a Provost Post-doctoral Fellow at the NYU Tisch School of the Arts. Dr. Colard is a historian of modern and contemporary African arts and photography\, with a focus on Central Africa. Her scholarly interests include post-colonialism in the arts\,  portraiture\, vernacular photograph\, the representation of gender and domesticity\, and the globalization of the contemporary art scene. Dr. Colard is an international lecturer (Concordia University\, EHESS\, Wiels\, Bozar\, European Parliament) and the author of multiple publications (African Arts\, Critical Interventions\, L’Art Même\, Cahiers du CAP\, Cultures et Musées). Her writings include contributions to exhibition catalogs such as Sammy Baloji: Hunting and Collecting. A Research Project (Mu.ZEE\, Ostend\, 2016)\, and The Expanded Subject: New Perspectives in Photographic Portraiture from Africa (Hirmer\, 2016)\, for which she was co-curator at the Wallach Art Gallery (New York\, 2016).  Her research has been supported by numerous fellowships\, among which that of the quai Branly Museum. Based on research conducted in Belgium\, Kinshasa and Lubumbashi (DRC)\, her current book project examines the history of photography in the colonial Congo (1885-1960). \n\n\nSylvie Kandé teaches at SUNY Old Westbury. Born in Paris to a French mother and a Senegalese father\, Kandé is the author of three collections of poetry published by Gallimard including Gestuaire and Lagon\, lagunes. Tableau de mémoire. Gestuaire examines gestures—gestures of life\, gestures of death\, of infinite love or absolute violence—as a language.  Lagon\, lagunes. Tableau de mémoireevokes the journey of a woman who takes stock of the manners in which history and the dominant gaze have shaped her “métisse” identity. Trained as both a literary critic and a historian\, she is also known for her work on the complex conversations that have taken place between Africa and Europe and Africa and its Diasporas. Her areas of specialization include métissage/hybridity and post-racial utopias. \n\nCo-sponsored by Institute of French Studies and La Maison Française of NYU

SUMMARY:STEPHEN W. SAWYER'S DEMOS ASSEMBLED: DEMOCRACY & THE INTERNATIONAL ORIGINS OF THE MODERN STATE
DESCRIPTION:Previous studies have covered in great detail how the modern state slowly emerged from the early Renaissance through the seventeenth century\, but we know relatively little about the next great act: the birth and transformation of the modern democratic state. Demos Assembled (University of Chicago Press\, 2018) provides us with a fresh\, transatlantic understanding of that political order’s genesis\, and sheds new light on the subsequent reciprocal influence that American thinkers and politicians had on the establishment of post-revolutionary regimes in France. Sawyer argues that the emergence of the stable Third Republic (1870–1940)\, which is typically said to have been driven by idiosyncratic internal factors\, was in fact a deeply transnational\, dynamic phenomenon. \nWith Stephen W. Sawyer\, professor and chair of history\, and director of the Center for Critical Democracy Studies at the American University of Paris\, editor of the Tocqueville Review and associate editor of the Annales. History and Social Sciences. Chaired by Stéphane Gerson (French and French Studies\, NYU). Comments by Edward Berenson (History and French Studies\, NYU)\, Arthur Goldhammer (Center for European Studies\, Harvard University)\, Jennifer Pitts (Political Science\, University of Chicago)\, and Sophia Rosenfeld (History\, University of Pennsylvania). \nIn English \nCo-sponsored by Institute of French Studies\, Center for European and Mediterranean Studies\, Department of History\, and Remarque Institute.

SUMMARY:URBAN INTERSECTIONS: BLACK\, QUEER LIVES IN NEW YORK CITY
DESCRIPTION:Few calls to action have been as powerful in movement building as that of the Combahee River Collective in 1977. The collective\, composed of Black feminists who identified as and with the working-class and lesbians\, demanded an active commitment “to struggling against racial\, sexual\, heterosexual\, and class oppression\,” seeing as their “particular task the development of integrated analysis and practice based upon the fact that the major systems of oppression are interlocking.” Decades later\, this intersectional politics helped buoy the Movement for Black lives\, Black Lives Matter\, Black Youth Project 100\, and other 21st century campaigns for racial\, gender\, class\, and sexual justice. In celebration of Black History Month\, the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising\, and the boundless\, ongoing relevance of the Combahee River Collective’s message\, this event brings together key activists working at the intersections of Black and queer politics in New York City. \nPanelists:\nKiara St. James\, Co-Founder and ED of New York Trans Advocacy Group\nKleaver Cruz\, Founder\, The Black Joy Project\nJewel Cadet\, Community Organizer with Black Youth Project 100 \nModerated By: Ayasha Guerin\, New York University\, Doctoral Candidate\, SCA and Urban Democracy Lab Doctoral Fellow in Urban Practice \nNote: Our featured image is of Pauli Murray\, lawyer\, Civil Rights Activist\, Episcopal Priest\, and (briefly) New Yorker. Murray identified as a lesbian and a recent biographer described her retroactively as “transgender.” \nPresented as a part of Gallatin’s Black History Month programming. \n  \nNew York University and Gallatin provide reasonable accommodations to people living with disabilities who wish to attend events at the School. For every event\, Gallatin staff will be on hand to assist guests. Please note that the entrance at 715 Broadway is wheelchair accessible.

SUMMARY:LECTURE: HUMAN RIGHTS AND THE GLOBAL HISTORY OF THE IRANIAN REVOLUTION
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the 1960s and into the 1970s\, the Shah of Iran\, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi\, and the Iranian student opposition abroad\, developed contending narratives of human rights in Iran. While Iranian students worked with Western human rights organizations to highlight the use of torture against political prisoners in Iran\, the Pahlavi state responded by embracing a Third World narrative of human rights that emphasized state sovereignty at the 1968 UN International Conference on Human Rights in Tehran. In this lecture\, Dr. Roham Alvandi examines how both the Shah and his opponents sought to instrumentalize human rights in the international struggle that sparked the Iranian Revolution of 1978-79. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Roham Alvandi is an Associate Professor of International History at the London School of Economics and Political Science. He is the author of Nixon\, Kissinger\, and the Shah: The United States and Iran in the Cold War (Oxford University Press\, 2014)\, which was selected by the Financial Times as one of the best history books of 2014. He has written extensively on the history of Iran’s foreign relations and his current research focuses on global human rights activism and the origins of the 1979 Iranian Revolution. His work has appeared in the British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies\, Cold War History\, Diplomatic History\, and Iranian Studies. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCo-sponsored:

SUMMARY:DISTINGUISHED FACULTY LECTURE WITH HORTENSE SPILLERS
DESCRIPTION:Women and the Laws: Reading Le Code Noir\nLe Code Noir\, the body of law advanced by the government of Louis XIV in the world of 17th-century France\, is one of the first codified legal documents regarding judicial conduct toward enslaved persons in the French colonies of the New World. As slavery increasingly established an iron-clad relationship between skin color and the absence of human and civil rights\, what implications did it have for other colonial powers operating in the Atlantic context? The terrors of Le Code Noir for the bonded female and her children were determined by the dictum “partus sequitur ventrem”\, Latin for “that which is brought forth follows the womb”. The codification of hereditary racial slavery highlights the contradictions that throw into crisis our entire understanding today of the repertoire of intimacy and sentimentality. \nHortense Spillers is the Gertrude Conaway Vanderbilt chair in English at Vanderbilt University; on leave this year from her home institution\, she is serving this semester as the M.H. Abrams distinguished visiting professor in English at Cornell University where she taught from 1987 to 2006. Her essay collection\, Black\, White\, and in Color: Essays on American Literature and Culture appeared in 2003 and has been the subject of various symposiums and critiques; currently at work on two large projects\, the Idea of Black Cultureand the status of women in the revolutionary context of the 18th century\, she has recently published work in the African-American Review\, Callaloo\, and The Bloomsbury Companion to Feminist Theory; in 2017\, she launched the A-Line\, a quarterly of progressive thought and has been a recent recipient of lifetime achievement awards from Callaloo (2016)\, the Caribbean Philosophical Association (2017)\, and the Hubbell Prize for work in American Literature from the American Literature Association of MLA (2019). She lectures widely\, most recently as an international visiting fellow at the Institute for Race\, Gender\, Sexuality\, and Social Justice and the Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Study at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. \nThis Distinguished Faculty Lecture is co-sponsored by NYU Gallatin and the Center for the Study of Africa & the African Diaspora\, the Department of Social & Cultural Analysis\, the Institute of African American Affairs & Center for Black Visual Culture\, the Center for the Study of Gender & Sexuality\, the Department of Comparative Literature\, the Department of English\, and the NYU Center for the Humanities.

SUMMARY:LECTURE: ROBERT VITALIS: ENDING OILCRAFT'S SPELL OVER US
DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nIn his forthcoming book Robert Vitalis takes apart an ideological construction that he calls “Oilcraft\,” a set of deeply-held\, pervasive beliefs about the world\, together with the actions these vivid truths license—op eds and classified memoranda\, documentaries\, classroom lectures\, naval patrols and calls at port\, journal articles\, podcasts\, press conferences\, and protests\, to name a few. Oilcraft is the close kin not of statecraft or the art of diplomacy\, but witchcraft\, a kind of magical thinking on the part of many\, diplomats included\, about a commodity bought and sold on the New York Mercantile Exchange and elsewhere. The same as copper\, coal\, rubber\, palm oil\, tin\, and so on\, all of which were once imagined as vital too. Oilcraft is about the reasoning that makes notions of oil-as-power unquestionably true\, taken for granted\, and Vitalis’ own claim suspect\, jarring\, or risable. If you are unhappy with the witchcraft analogy\, then think instead in terms of “doctrinal verities\,” to borrow a phrase from the linguist Noam Chomsky\, who insists that it is the United States need to “control” Iraqi oil resources drove the war in 2003. \nIn his keynote for the Conference on Energy and the Left\, Vitalis proposes to recover the 1920s progressive era left’s critiques of today’s commonsense beliefs about scarcity and conflict. The roots of oilcraft are found in nineteenth century social Darwinism\, neo-mercantilism\, and geographical determinism\, which\, together with scientific racism\, are all impossible to disentangle from the imperialism of that era. The beliefs have a long half-life. Oilcraft’s debunkers today\, who are likely unaware of the earlier refutations of the imagined laws of resource imperialism\, are found primarily on the right\, not the left\, and promoted by the CATO Institute rather than the Open Society Foundation\, Institute for Policy Studies and the Nation Institute. Today’s Anglo-American left appears wholly under its spell. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRobert Vitalis has taught political science at the University of Pennsylvania since 1999. The London Guardian named his America’s Kingdom: Mythmaking on the Saudi Oil Frontier\, a book of the year in 2006. His last book\, White World Order\, Black Power Politics (Cornell University Press\, 2015) moved away from the Middle East to explore the unwritten history of racism and imperialism in American disciplinary international relations and the recovery of its critical “Howard School” tradition. He new book\, Oilcraft: Folkways of Imperialism and Antiimperialism in the Twenty First Century\, is forthcoming from Stanford University Press. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n  \nSponsored by the Hagop Kevorkian Center for Near Eastern Studies \nCo-sponsored by: \nGraduate School of Arts and Sciences \nMiddle East and Islamic Studies (MEIS) \nHistory Graduate Students Association

SUMMARY:Global Africa\, Migration\, Literature and the Arts
DESCRIPTION:The Symposium Global Africa\, Migration\, Literature\, and the Arts is intended to explore how Africans and people of African descent globally have been and continue to be at the center of complex histories of encounter and exchange\, traversing geographic\, generational\, and cultural boundaries over the centuries. It will highlight the lived experiences of migration of\, and its impact on\, the people of Africa and its Diaspora through the prism of the arts – literature visual cultures and performances including film\, comics\, graphic arts\, painting\, photography\, music\, and dance. Departing from a critical examination of the discourses of migration\, location\, home and identity in the context of social and cultural transit\, the symposium will position Africans and the African Diaspora as participants and players in the movement of both tangible and intangible matter – multi-generic ideas\, texts\, stories\, memories\, artifacts and performances— as they move through time and space in the World. In the final analysis\, the symposium will highlight the multidimensional nature of the interchange between Africa and other regions of the world as experienced in the realm of the arts\, demonstrating once again the global/international reach and scope of the arts and art movements from Africa and the African Diaspora. \nSchool of Arts and Sciences\, School of Business\, School of Environmental and Biological Sciences\, Center for African Studies\, French department\, Italian department\, and the Zimmerli Art Museum \nConveners: Ousseina Alidou (AMESALL) and Renée Larrier (Dept. of French) \nEmail: globalafrica@sas.rutgers.edu

SUMMARY:CONFERENCE: BEYOND TURMOIL AND CONFLICT: IRAQ SINCE 2003
DESCRIPTION:Marking the sixteenth-anniversary of the the 2003 invasion of Iraq\, this event will reflect on the environmental\, political\, cultural\, and social consequences of the 2003 war\, as well as visions for Iraq’s future\, and will center discussions around the implications\, possibilities\, and new directions in the study of modern Iraq. Through the panels and keynote address\, this event will highlight the legacies of consecutive years of war\, violence\, and trauma. However\, this event intends to move past fatalistic narratives of trauma and violence by highlighting how Iraqis continue to narrate their own histories and represent their identities through artistic\, literary\, and cultural production\, protest against violence\, and continue to shape their own future. \nMoreover\, as Iraq continues to receive scholarly interest by historians\, political scientists\, artists\, and anthropologists alike\, and while recent controversies surrounding archives highlight the various ethical questions surrounding research on Iraq\, this event invites scholars and students to reflect on both the hardships and the possibilities in conducting research on/in Iraq. In particular\, and especially in the graduate workshop\, we would like to ask questions about what is at stake with projects on Iraq; what constitutes an archive and what are the ethical implications of using particular archives; what types of histories do Iraqis want told; and finally\, how do we address the recurrent problems and cliches within studies on Iraq. \n  \nSponsor Hagop Kevorkian Center Near Eastern Studies NYU \nCo-Sponsors: \nDepartment of Middle East and Islamic Studies\, Department of History NYU\, Department of Anthropology NYU

SUMMARY:FESTIVAL DES CINQ CONTINENTS
DESCRIPTION:This event will recur Every Day until Apr. 6\, 2019\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \nThe festival takes place at a number of NYC locations. Events at La Maison Française of NYU are listed below. \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 5\, 2:15 P.M.\nParler avec le corps et la musique: qu’est-ce que c’est la voix humaine?\nRoland Auzet (compositeur et metteur en scène)\, Koffi Kwahulé (dramaturge)\, François Noudelmann (philosophe). Modératrice: Prof. Judith Miller (NYU). \nL’auteur franco-ivoirien Koffi Kwahulé et le compositeur/metteur en scène français Roland Auzet présenteront leur travail “musical\,” réalisé à travers deux spectacles récents: “Jaz de Kwahulé” (mise en scène par Alexandre Zeff) et “La Voix Humaine de Cocteau” (mise en scène par Roland Auzet). Quelle langue parle le corps de la comédienne dans chaque spectacle? Que fait la musique pour communiquer ce que le corps ou la voix ne peuvent pas? Le philosophe François Noudelmann ajoutera ses commentaires et ses questions à cette conversation. \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 5\, 4:00 P.M.\nLecture de textes\nJean-Marc Turine\nWriter\, radio producer; author of La Théo des fleuves (Prix des 5 Continents de la Francophonie 2018) \nFRIDAY\, APRIL 5\, 4:30 P.M.\nSilences et absences: écrivains\, chercheurs et artistes face à l’Histoire\nFabienne Kanor (écrivain et réalisatrice)\, Kid Kréol et Boogie (street artistes)\, Fatima Mazmouz (artiste)\, Frédéric Régent (historien\, Paris I et CNMHE). Modératrice: Prof. Cécile Bishop (NYU). \nCette table-ronde explore les stratégies mises en oeuvre par des écrivains\, chercheurs et artistes pour faire entendre des mémoires\, des voix ou des expériences passées sous silence par les récits historiques officiels. Du street art à la recherche historique\, en passant par le montage photographique et l’écriture littéraire\, nous suivrons une approche résolument interdisciplinaire pour aborder des questions telles que: comment parler au nom des oubliés? Le silence est-il une politique? L’enjeu de notre discussion sera de répondre à l’interrogation suivante: dans quelle mesure l’art et l’imagination peuvent-il offrir une alternative aux silences des archives? \nON VIEW APRIL 5 AND APRIL 8\, 10:00 A.M. – 6:00 P.M.\nPhoto exhibit of Bouzbir and Résistants by Fatima Mazmouz \nBouzbir and Résistants participate in cementing a “memory body” for the city of Casablanca. By reworking these historical documents and making us hear what they have kept silent\, Fatima Mazmouz situates them within a history of photography that is at once local\, global and contemporary. \n  \nCo-sponsored by the Permanent Mission of the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie to the United Nations and by the NYU Center for French Language and Cultures \nFull schedule at as.nyu.edu/frenchcenter/festival5continents/schedule0

SUMMARY:Round table discussion | FROM PLAZA MAYOR TO WASHINGTON SQUARE: SPANISH REPUBLICAN EXILES AT NYU
DESCRIPTION:Round table discussion | FROM PLAZA MAYOR TO WASHINGTON SQUARE: SPANISH REPUBLICAN EXILES AT NYU\n\n\nEighty year ago\, on April 1\, 1939\, the Spanish Civil War was officially declared over. One of its many tragic outcomes was the exile of as many as 500\,000 people. Some of those fleeing\, like the poet Antonio Machado\, would die during the exodus or shortly after. Others\, like the writer Jorge Semprún\, would be sent later on to Nazi concentration camps. Many others did their best to start new lives in France\, North Africa or the Americas\, almost always dreaming of someday returning to a free Spain. \nIn places like Chile\, Mexico\, Cuba or Argentina\, the contributions made by these Spanish Republican exiles to the eventual defeat of fascism\, and to the cultures and economies of their adopted countries\, are relatively well known. Fewer people are aware\, however\, of the remarkable legacy left by the Spanish Republican exiles in the United States. \nIn these two roundtable discussions\, we will talk about this legacy focusing on the impact that the exiles had on the intellectual life of New York University and\, more specifically\, on how they influenced the study of Spanish art\, culture and history at the University. \nOpening Remarks:\nGeorgina Dopico\, Vice Provost for Undergraduate Academic Affairs\nRafael Conde de Saro\, Consul General of Spain \nParticipants:\nMaría Dueñas (Visiting author)\nJames D. Fernández (NYU\, FAS)\nJuan José Herrera de la Muela (Consulate General of Spain in New York)\nAlexander Nagel (NYU\, IFA)\nEdward Sullivan (NYU\, IFA)\nMarisol Téllez Urech (Researcher and author) \nApril 2\, 2019 6:00 pm \nVenue: KJCC Auditorium // 53 Washington Square South\, NYC

SUMMARY:NYU Center for French Language presents “La Sonothèque Nomade” at Africa House
DESCRIPTION:NYU Center for French Language presents “La Sonothèque Nomade” at Africa House – April 4-5\, 2019\nThe Center for French Language and Cultures is happy to invite you to La Sonothèque Nomade – an artistic residency and musical event on Thursday and Friday\, April 4-5\, 2019. La Sonothèque Nomade is a lively\, nomadic\, and poetic space of listening and recording with a global outlook\, collecting songs and lullabies from somewhere or other\, accompanied by accounts and recordings. The sum of these portraits build up to create a gallery of portraits\, intended to enrich the Sonothèque. \nThis program is part of the Le Festival des cinq continents\, an annual literary event\, organized in partnership with the international organization of La Francophonie. \nA Nomadic Experience\nCreated in 2018 by performer and musician Carine Henry\, in collaboration with actor and theatre director Jérôme Bouvet\, the goal of the sound library is to record songs and lullabies in as many languages as possible. They meet people in their home or in a public space and record contributions\, following up with an interview afterwards to better understand the link that ties the singer to the song. The Sonothèque Nomade recorded songs in France and in Switzerland\, and their 2-day residency at NYU Africa House will be their first residency within the Americas. The full extent of their work will be later presented at the Paléo Festival\, the biggest open-air music festival of Switzerland\, in July 2020. \nAt NYU\, the Sonothèque Nomade will record songs and lullabies from students and professors. \nThe NYU Center for French language and Cultures is a creative partner of the Sonothèque Nomade. \nWhen & Where\nNYU Africa House\, 44 Washington Mews\, New York\, NY 10003 \nApril 4\, 2019 1:00pm – 5:00pm \nApril 5\, 2019 9:00am – 12:00pm \nArt Direction\nJérôme Bouvet and Carine Henry \nFor more info about the Sonothèque Nomade project\, please visit https://www.lafaussecompagnie.fr \nFor more info about the Sonothèque Nomade’s residency at NYU\, please contact Guillaume Parodi at gp70@nyu.edu or (212) 998 8758. \nVisit the NYU Arts and Science page for more information: https://as.nyu.edu/content/nyu-as/as/research-centers/frenchcenter/festival5continents/schedule0/sononomade.html \n\nCo-Host\nThe NYU Center for French Language and Cultures exists to promote academic and cultural activity relating to the French-speaking world at New York University\, and to foster exchange between the University and French and Francophone communities. It serves the French Department\, the Institute of French Studies and La Maison Française\, and maintains close ties with NYU-Paris\, coordinating with all four. Recognized as a Center of Excellence by the French Embassy\, it also collaborates with their Cultural Services on French and Francophone-related academic and cultural projects. The NYU Center for French Language and Cultures organizes at least one annual conference\, hosts the regular series “Machines à écrire”\, and has invited a regular stream of distinguished visitors to lecture at NYU. It also sponsors events relating to French and Francophone academic and cultural life organized by other members of the NYU community. The Center is eager to expand its ties with other departments and programs at NYU. It was first founded in 1978 by Professor Tom Bishop who was its director from then until 2016.
