SUMMARY:Public Lecture: "Racialized Paths to Proletarianization: Myths about Black Economic Competition\, Cheap Labor\, and White Vulnerability"
DESCRIPTION:Tiffany Willoughby-Herard (African American Studies\, UC Irvine) \nThe presentation discusses a key historiographical intervention about so-called “cheap labor” in WASTE OF A WHITE SKIN: THE CARNEGIE CORPORATION AND THE RACIAL LOGIC OF WHITE VULNERABILITY. What did calls for the protection of “civilized labor” and a “white wage” mean to the history of race and class in apartheid South Africa? How did depiction of African workers as “cheap” and “inefficient” laborers “encroaching on white jobs” characterize African women and men as having a purely ornamental function in the history of South African industrialization? What does this legacy suggest about contemporary post-apartheid struggle in South Africa? \nTiffany Willoughby-Herard is an Associate Professor of African American Studies at the University of California\, Irvine. She is the author of WASTE OF A WHITE SKIN: THE CARNEGIE CORPORATION AND THE RACIAL LOGIC OF WHITE VULNERABILITY (University of California Press\, 2015) and editor of the NATIONAL POLITICAL SCIENCE REVIEW. \nSponsored by the IHC’s African Studies RFG\, the Center for Black Studies Research\, and the History Department \n  \n\nWilloughby-Herard1-Flyer\, 3 Feb. 2016

SUMMARY:Beyond Hebrew: Zionism and the Politics of Multilingualism in Palestine\, 1920-1948
DESCRIPTION:Event Description:\nThe promotion of modern Hebrew as a spoken vernacular is often viewed as a central accomplishment of the Zionist movement in Palestine before Israeli statehood. But by viewing twentieth-century history through the lens of language\, author Liora Halperin questions the common narrative of a Zionist move away from multilingualism during the years following World War I. She demonstrates how Jews in Palestine remained connected by both preference and necessity to a world of languages outside the boundaries of the pro-Hebrew community even as many of them promoted Hebrew and achieved that language’s dominance. \nThe story of language encounters in the Jewish community of Palestine is a fascinating tale of shifting power relationships\, both locally and globally. Halperin’s absorbing study explores how a young national community was compelled to modify demands for Hebrew exclusivity as it negotiated its relationships with its diverse Jewish population\, Palestinian Arabs\, the British\, and others outside the margins of the national project and ultimately came to terms with the limitations of its influence and power in an interconnected world. \n  \nAbout the Speaker:\nLiora R. Halperin is an Assistant Professor in the Department of History and the Program in Jewish Studies and the holder of the Endowed Professorship in Israel/Palestine Studies at the University of Colorado Boulder\, where she has taught since 2013. Her research focuses on Jewish cultural history\, Jewish-Arab relations in Ottoman and Mandate Palestine\, language ideology and policy\, and the politics surrounding nation formation in Palestine in the years leading up to the creation of the State of Israel in 1948. She is also a member of the advisory board for CU’s Archive of Post-Holocaust American Judaism\, and affiliated faculty in Middle Eastern Studies at the CU Center for Asian Studies. \n  \nSponsored by the Center for Middle East Studies and Jewish Studies at UCSB.

SUMMARY:Probing "Presence": Photography and Policing in Colonial South Africa
DESCRIPTION:TALK: \nLorena Rizzo (University of Bielefeld & Harvard University) \nProbing “Presence” – Photography and Policing in Colonial South Africa \nThe presentation starts from research conducted in the Western Cape Archives in 2012/3. While working on a collection of photographic albums produced in a Cape Town convict station in the late 19th and early 20th century\, I came across a pair of photographs portraying a convict who bore my surname. I use this archival coincidence or curiosity as an entry point into a methodological and theoretical discussion of the status of photography as a historical source and its appeal as a medium to genealogical research and memory studies. While revisiting some of the classical texts on photography\, among them Roland Barthes’s Camera Lucida\, this paper focuses on Eelco Runia’s notion of “presence.” In sum\, it examines some of the ways in which historical photographs resonate with contemporary negotiations of the past in South Africa. \n  \nThe talk is sponsored by the IHC’s African Studies Research Focus Group\, History (Research Cluster Empires\, Borderlands\, and their Legacies)\, History of Art and Architecture\, Film and Media Studies. \nEvent Flyer

SUMMARY:Holly Roose: 3rd Annual Van Gelderen Graduate Student Lecture
DESCRIPTION:On February 28\, the UCSB History Associates present the 3rd annual Van Gelderen Lecture shocasing graduate student Holly Roose who will talk about her doctoral dissertation: \n“Once you go Black you got to go back: Multicultural Garveyism in the Far West” \nAbout our Speaker:\nHolly Roose has recently completed her doctoral dissertation and will receive her degree soon. In 2015\, she won a campus-wide Graduate Student Association Teaching Prize and also received the History Department’s Outstanding TA Award. \nLecture Background:\nBetween 1916 and 1925\, Marcus Garvey created the largest Black nationalist movement in world history\, in in the American West his work linked up with other such movements in ways that have gone unstudied by scholars. \nOnce you go “Black” (that is\, become interested in the issues of race\, Blackness\, and current social issues)\, you have to go “Back” (become knowledgeable about the U.S.’s shared racial history and dynamics to under-stand our contemporary experiences). “Black Lives Matter” and the violence visited upon on the bodies of Black men and women are not new social phenomena\, but have deep roots in the nation’s foundations. These issues must be examined by investigating their origins\, paths of continuity\, and impacts which flow down from that history. One of the most fruitful areas lies in the nature of Black identity and the articulation of the ob-jectives of racial progress that emerged from the con-cept of Black nationalism as conceived in the early 20th century. These were central to the Civil Rights and Black Power movements of the mid 1950s through the 1970s. \nLuncheon\nA luncheon of bbq beef and chicken will be served at 12:30 pm in the Alumni Hall on the plaza level (second floor) of the Mosher Alumni House. The Alumni House is at the entrance road for Campbell Hall\, next to con-venient parking ($3 on weekends). \nCampus map available at: http://www.tps.ucsb.edu/mapFlash.aspx \nRSVP\nPlease see attached flyer and send in your reservation. \nCost\n$10 for graduate students\, $20 for History Associates members and their guests\, and $25 for non-members.
