SUMMARY:Visiting Fulbright Fellow\, Alan Rice
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Alan Rice\, PhD\, Fulbright Scholar; Professor of English and American Studies; Director of the Research Centre in Migration\, Diaspora & Exile; Co-Director of the Institute for Black Atlantic Research\, University of Central Lancashire\, United Kingdom \nWhen: 12:00 pm on April 4 \nWhere: Eldersveld Room\, 5670 Haven Hall \n  \nFrom Lubaina Himid to the Battle of Bamber Bridge: Curating and Narrating Black Atlantic Stories in British Museums and Communities \nVisiting Fulbright Scholar Professor Alan Rice (DAAS\, UMICH) will discuss a range of his work as curator\, academic and activist in Lancashire\, Great Britain. As a scholar of the Black Atlantic he has curated and co-curated exhibitions with Black British artists including the Turner Prize winner\, Lubaina Himid\, Godfried Donkor\, textile artist Althea McNish and rising stars Jade de Montserrat and Lela Harris. This talk will showcase these curatorial interventions including work with the Whitworth on their Trade and Empire exhibition where together with his co-curators he used extant objects to tell new stories about slavery and exploitation. \nMore recent work in Lancaster focuses on its history as the fourth largest slave port and uses the work of Black British artists to challenge the elision of difficult histories. He will discuss how he\, together with Lancaster Black History Group\, uses the work of Himid\, de Montserrat and Harris to get African Atlantic representation into the heart of the museum. His final short case study will show how together with Preston Black History Group he has worked with the community in Bamber Bridge to memorialise the widely forgotten story of a mutiny against Jim Crow segregation by African American troops in a small village in Lancashire. Overall\, he will discuss the importance of activist interventions as an academic and curator. \nPresentation flyer

SUMMARY:DISCO Network Presents: Building the Indigenous Internet
DESCRIPTION:Date:  April 14 \nTime:  2:00 – 3:30 pm \nLocation:  10th Floor Weiser Hall & Zoom \nThis panel brings together key voices in infrastructure as broadly imagined\, data sovereignty and decolonial perspectives to critically explore the history\, present\, and future of the indigenous Internet. The conversation will showcase how Indigenous knowledge has and will continue to shape data worlds by bringing together interdisciplinary perspectives on emerging technologies—ranging from computer science\, artificial intelligence\, social media\, online activism\, the work of infrastructure and circuit building\, and beyond. By centering Indigenous voices\, the discussion aims to create transformative visions for a sustainable\, equitable\, and inclusive digital future while inviting speculative thinking about post-settler digital worlds. \nFree copies of Indigenous Currencies: Leaving Some for the Rest in the Digital Age by Ashley Cordes will be provided to the first 50 attendees. All are welcome and we strongly encourage undergraduate and graduate students to attend. Advance registration is recommended: \n\nRegister to attend in person: https://myumi.ch/N6wx9\nRegister to attend on Zoom: https://myumi.ch/egDpX\n\n \nMeet the Panelists \nAshley Cordes (Coquille/KōKwel) is an Assistant Professor of Indigenous Media in ENVS and Data Science at the University of Oregon and a recent American Council of Learned Societies Fellow. Her research lies at the intersection of Indigenous science and technology studies\, digital media\, and environmental/place-based studies. She is interested in how Indigenous culture and technology producers leverage discursive\, technological\, and media forms of “digital Indigeneity” toward Tribal economic independence\, representational and data sovereignty\, Indigenous cultural revitalization\, and the resurgence of Indigenous knowledge systems. Her research in AI has been published in the Indigenous Protocols Artificial Intelligence position paper and her other works on representation\, digital humanities\, and Indigenous methods have been published in journals such as Cultural Studies >Critical Methodologies\, Journal of International and Intercultural Communication\, and Feminist Media Studies. She is the author of the book\, Indigenous Currencies: Leaving Some for the Rest in the Digital Age in production with MIT Press. \nMajerle Lister is a Diné student whose research interest ranges from Indigenous geography\, Native American Studies\, and Critical Agrarian Studies. Focusing on land regimes in the Navajo Nation\, he is interested in how land relations are shaped by development projects and historical Diné land relations and practices. His research explores the development discourses and practices within the Former Bennett Freeze Area in Western Navajo Nation. \nLisa Nakamura is the Gwendolyn Calvert Baker Collegiate Professor in the Department of American Culture\, and the founding Director of the Digital Studies Institute at the University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor. Since 1994\, Nakamura has written books and articles on digital bodies\, race\, and gender in online environments\, on toxicity in video game culture\, and the many reasons that Internet research needs ethnic and gender studies. These books include\, Race After the Internet (co-edited with Peter Chow-White\, Routledge\, 2011); Digitizing Race: Visual Cultures of the Internet (Minnesota\, 2007); Cybertypes: Race\, Ethnicity\, and Identity on the Internet (Routledge\, 2002); and Race in Cyberspace (co-edited with Beth Kolko and Gil Rodman\, Routledge\, 2000). In November 2019\, Nakamura gave a TED NYC talk about her research called “The Internet is a Trash Fire. Here’s How to Fix It.” \n  \nCo-Sponsors:\nCenter for Ethics\, Society\, and Computing\nComputer Science and Engineering\nDepartment of American Culture\nDepartment of Comparative Literature\nDepartment of Film\, Television\, and Media\nDepartment of History\nMuseum Studies Program\nNative American Studies\nProgram in Computing for the Arts and Sciences\nScience\, Technology & Society Program\nScience\, Technology\, and Public Policy Program\nSchool of Information \n  \nAdditional information can be found here.
