SUMMARY:Racial and Reproductive Injustice: The Long History of Eugenic Sterilization in California
DESCRIPTION:Alexandra Stern is Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology\, American Culture\, and History at the University of Michigan.\nThis  lecture series on the biopolitics of reproduction in the US and globally is hosted by the Black Studies Colloquium\, with the co-sponsorship of the department of Feminist Studies\, Chicana and Chicano Studies\, the History of Science Program\, and the New Health\, Medicine\, and Care Working Group. \nSpeakers will explore how cultural and political commitments shape and constrain the conditions under which women and people of color control their reproductive lives and experience ownership over their own biology. This lecture series approaches these issues from a historical and ethnographic perspective\, exploring the eugenics movement\, progressive era public health reform\, cultural politics of abortion\, and the science of women’s reproductive systems. \nhm 4/1/15

SUMMARY:"Three Minutes in Poland: Discovering a Lost World in a 1938 Family Film"
DESCRIPTION:Painstakingly assembled from interviews\, photographs\, documents\, andartifacts\, Three Minutes in Poland tells the rich\, funny\, harrowing\, and\nsurprisingly intertwined stories of these seven survivors and their Polish\nhometown. Originally a travel souvenir\, this home movie became the sole\nremaining record of a vibrant town on the brink of catastrophe. Pursuing\nthe significance of this brief film became a riveting exploration of\nmemory\, loss\, and improbable survival.  \nCourtesy of The Book Den\, copies of Three Minutes in Poland will be\navailable for purchase and signing at this event. \nSpeaker Profile: \nGlenn Kurtz is the author of Three Minutes in Poland: Discovering a Lost\nWorld in a 1938 Family Film\, which was named a “Best Book of 2014” by The\nNew Yorker\, The Boston Globe\, and NPR. The Wall Street Journal praised it\nas “captivating” and The Los Angeles Times described it as “breathtaking.”\nHis essays have appeared in The New York Times\, Salon\, Southwest Review\,\nand elsewhere. \nReviews of Three Minutes in Poland: \n“In the pages of Glenn Kurtz’s marvelous book\, the ghosts from those three\nminutes are breathtakingly brought to life.”\n–Louise Steinman\, Los Angeles Times\, November 20\, 2014. \n“Both a memoir and an impressive feat of historical research\, Three Minutes\nin Poland documents Kurtz’s four-year search for surviving Nasielskers\, who\nhe hopes can piece together a narrative from the fragments of film…. In a\ngenre so often preoccupied with the recitation of horrors\, Three Minutes in\nPoland is the rare work that seems more about people than about ghosts.”\n?Sarah Kaplan\, The Washington Post\, January 16\, 2015. \n“… a haunting web of contingency.”\n–The New Yorker\, February 16\, 2015. \n“…in this captivating book\, Mr. Kurtz tries to reconstruct Jewish\nNasielsk\, knowing he will fail?not only because he arrives too late but\nbecause memory is by nature incomplete.”\n–Dara Horn\, The Wall Street Journal\, December 29\, 2014. \nSponsored by the Herman P. and Sophia Taubman Foundation Endowed Symposia\nin Jewish Studies at UC Santa Barbara\, a program of the Interdisciplinary\nHumanities Center. Cosponsored by UCSB Department of Religious\nStudies\, Congregation B’nai B’rith\, Jewish Federation of Greater Santa\nBarbara\, and Santa Barbara Hillel. \nhm 4/9/15

SUMMARY:Magnetic Insights into Cultural Heritage
DESCRIPTION:Magnetic resonance is best known for its unique capabilities of  imaging in diagnostic medicine and molecular structure determination  in analytical chemistry. In the past two decades\, the instrumentation  has been shrunk to tabletop and even shoebox size. One example is the  NMR-MOUSE\, a portable sensor for nondestructive materials testing.  This sensor has been developed and tested within three successive  collaborative research projects of the European Community on the  analysis of Cultural Heritage. It provides novel insights into a wide  range of objects in the treasure of our cultural heritage such as  master paintings\, the craftsmanship behind the paint layer of frescoes  in Herculaneum\, and the bones of Ötzi the Iceman and Charlemagne.  These and other magnetic insights will be reported.\nhm 4/1/15
