SUMMARY:John McK. Camp\, The Archaeology of Democracy
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:\nDr. John McK. Camp\nDirector of the Athenian Agora Excavations \n  \nEvent Description: \nAncient Athens is generally regarded as the birthplace of the world’s first democracy. The administrative center of Athenian democracy was the Agora\, the main square of the city\, which has been under excavation for the past eighty-five years. Here have been found the buildings which housed the government (magistrates’ offices\, law courts\, and assembly places)\, along with the objects used every day to make sure the system worked as it should (laws and regulations inscribed on stone\, allotment machines\, water clocks\, and ballots). A visitor to the agora in antiquity would have occasion to see all three branches of the government in action: executive\, legislative\, and judicial. This lecture will illuminate the archaeological material that sheds light on the development and practice of this political phenomenon. \n  \nEvent Flyer:

SUMMARY:Film Showing: Run Boy Run
DESCRIPTION:Kristallnacht Commemoration and Santa Barbara Premiere\nWinner of 10 Film Festival Audience Awards \n  \nA superlative saga of courage and compassion\, Run Boy Run tells the extraordinary true story of a Polish boy who seeks the kindness of others in his solitary struggle to outlast the Nazi occupation and keep alive his Jewish faith. \nEscaping the Warsaw ghetto at the behest of his father\, nine-year old Srulik (movingly portrayed by twin child actors Andrzej and Kamil Tkacz) flees to the woods. There\, he learns to hide from SS patrols and scour for food\, until loneliness and the harsh onset of winter drive him back to civilization. Taken in by a kindhearted farmer’s wife (Elisabeth Duda)\, he is given shelter and a new identity. Passing himself off as Jurek\, a Christian war orphan\, the intrepid boy traverses the countryside from village to village\, working as a farmhand under an ever-present threat of persecution. Some will help him survive and others will betray him. Just when it seems his childhood memories and identity could be lost forever\, Jurek’s harrowing journey culminates in a powerhouse conclusion and postscript. \nAn unforgettable cinematic experience featuring exceptional performances\, arresting cinematography and transcendent musical score\, Run Boy Run is directed by Academy Award-winner Pepe Danquart and based on the bestselling Holocaust novel by Israeli author Uri Orlev. Newcomer Andy Tkacz plays Jurek together with a cast that includes Katarzyna Bargielowska (The Pianist)\, Rainer Bock (The White Ribbon)\, Jeanette Hain (Poll) and Itay Tiran (Lebanon).

SUMMARY:Orit Bashkin\, From Palestinian Village to an Iraqi Transit Camp
DESCRIPTION:Event Description:\nOver 130\,000 Iraqi Jews arrived in Israel during the 1950s; they were forced to settle in transit camps where they lived in horrendous poverty. Previous scholarship on this migration focused on the state and its actions towards\, and representations of\, these newcomers. Later generations of scholars highlighted the resistance of Mizrahi men to the state\, in the form of mass demonstrations\, urban riots\, and the construction of political parties. This talk\, in contrast\, examines the Iraqi individuals in the camps: how family life took shape when families lived in crowded tents and wooden shacks; how Iraqi women raised children in the most dreadful conditions; and how children struggled to survive cold winters and loss of any sense of security. The focus on daily lives in the transit camps\, I argue\, changes the ways in which we understand resistance. I focus in particular on Iraqis forced to settle in transit camps built on the ruins of the Palestinian villages\, Kafar ‘Ana\, Khayriyya and Sakiyya and analyze the relationships between the native population displaced\, the Palestinians\, and the new population\, forced to settle there\, the Iraqi Jews. \n  \nAbout the Speaker:\nOrit Bashkin got her Ph.D. from Princeton University (2004) and her BA (1995) and MA (1999) from Tel Aviv University. She is now a professor of modern Arab history in the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations at the University of Chicago. Her publications include 25 book chapters and articles on the history of Arab-Jews in Iraq\, on Iraqi history and on Arabic literature. She has also edited a book Sculpturing Culture in Egypt [le-fasel tarbut be-mitzrayim] with Israel Gershoni and Liat Kozma\, which included translations into Hebrew of seminal works by Egyptian intellectuals. She is the author of the following books: The Other Iraq – Pluralism and Culture in Hashemite Iraq (Stanford University Press\, 2009 and Paperback\, 2010)\, New Babylonians: A History of Jews in Modern Iraq (Stanford University Press\, 2012). \n  \nEvent Flyer:

SUMMARY:Hussein Ibish\, Anxious Allies: The Arab Gulf States and the Iran Nuclear Deal
DESCRIPTION:Event Description: \nIsrael’s opposition to the Iran nuclear deal is well-known. But how are other U.S. allies in the Middle East\, especially Arab Gulf states like Saudi Arabia\, the UAE\, Qatar and Kuwait\, reacting to the agreement? Are the Sunni Arab countries on a collision course with Iran and its allies\, or is some degree of accommodation possible? Dr. Hussein Ibish examines these and similar questions\, and considers policy options facing the United States. \n  \nHussein Ibish is a Senior Resident Scholar at the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington. He is a regular contributor to The National (UAE)\, The International New York Times\, and many other U.S. and Middle Eastern publications. He is the author What’s Wrong With the One-State Agenda? Why Ending the Occupation and Peace with Israel is Still the Palestinian National Goal (American Task Force on Palestine\, 2009). From 2001 to 2008 Dr. Ibish was the editor and principal author of three major studies of hate crimes and discrimination against Arab Americans\, commissioned by the American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. He co-authored (with Ali Abunimah) The Palestinian Right of Return (ADC\, 2001) and co-edited (with Saliba Sarsar) Principles and Pragamatism (Verso\, 2006). Ibish previously served as a senior fellow at the American Task Force on Palestine\, as executive director of the Hala Salaam Maksoud Foundation for Arab-American Leadership from 2004 to 2009\, and as communications director for the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee. \n  \nEvent Flyer:
