SUMMARY:Focal Point Dialogues in History: Conversations on Black life\, race\, and antiblackness in history with Prof. Nyasha Mboti and Prof. Steve Zipperstein
DESCRIPTION:The History Department’s Colloquium Committee warmly invites you to attend this year’s FOCAL POINT Dialogues in History series. Inspired by the History Department’s Statement on the George Floyd Uprising and its invocation to understand and interrogate our racialized past and the investments of disciplinary history within it\, the series brings together History faculty and graduate students to engage in a dialogue on Black life\, race\, and antiblackness in history. \nFor our FOCAL POINT Dialogues in History series this year\, the Colloquium Committee\, after careful discussion\, has decided to invite both Professor Steve Zipperstein and Professor Nyasha Mboti (Professor of Communication at the University of the Free State) to join us and have a dialogue with us on April 12 1-3PM at the McCune Conference Room. \nProfessor Zipperstein will talk about the important Waco/Branch Davidian standoff on its 30th anniversary. This talk will discuss how Waco (and a prior episode at Ruby Ridge\, Idaho) laid the groundwork for the dangerous rise of anti-government white nationalism in the United States\, leading to the January 2021 Trump-inspired attack on the U.S. Capitol. \nProfessor Mboti will talk about his new book\, Apartheid Studies: A Manifesto\, Vol. 1 (2023). The book utilizes the notion of “apartheid” as a paradigm and theoretical framework. It argues that apartheid is not quite what we were told or what we thought. Instead\, seen from the experience and point of view of the oppressed\, apartheid has astonishing virulence\, prevalence\, persistence\, and undetectability. Apartheid Studies\, in a word\, is an interdisciplinary invitation to study how oppression\, inequality\, injustice\, and harm persist\, and what to do about it. \nSteve and Nyasha will each talk for 30 minutes\, and they will then engage in a conversation with each other and comment on each other’s talk for 15-20 minutes. Steve and Nyasha address antiblackness from different perspectives and positionalities\, which will also greatly deepen our understanding of this issue. We will then open the floor and invite questions and comments from the audience. \nOur department has purchased 34 PDF copies of Apartheid Studies\, which have been made available on a Box folder. Graduate students: please contact Prof. Zheng if you want a copy of the book. Africa World Press has graciously agreed to share this book with interested graduate students.

SUMMARY:The Deccani Trails of the St Andrews Qur'an Manuscript - Lecture by Dr. Keelan Overton
DESCRIPTION:Shortly after its production in Safavid Tabriz or Herat\, the single-volume Quran manuscript known as the “St Andrews Quran” traveled east to the Deccan region of southern India and circulated between four courtly contexts over the next two hundred years. The evidence for this dynamic life history is found in the codex itself\, and this talk summarizes the findings of a multi-year interdisciplinary archaeological excavation of the manuscript. Weaving between the object\, archive\, and political realities of the Deccan sultanates\, Mughal court\, and Tipu Sultan\, I consider how the St Andrews Quran inspires the writing of ground-based art histories that challenge prevailing taxonomies. \nThis event is organized by the King Abdul Aziz In Saud Chair in Islamic Studies.

SUMMARY:GIVE DAY 2023
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, April 13th\, 2023 is UCSB’s annual Give Day\, a 36-hour online fundraising event. Last year\, with the help of the community\, more people donated to the History Department than any other department in the entire division of Humanities and Fine Arts. We are proud and honored to enjoy that distinction\, and hope to repeat the achievement!\n\n \nThis year\, the History Department is partnering with the History Associates to raise funds for student support. Since 1987\, the History Associates has built a thriving\, collaborative community of esteemed scholars and passionate history buffs. Among the ranks are emeriti and current faculty\, staff\, graduate students\, alumni\, and local community members. (If you’re not a member already\, join today!) For decades\, History Associates has been hosting free public lectures\, arranging special events\, and supporting graduate students.\n \nThis Give Day\, we hope you’ll consider joining in those efforts by donating to the History Associates Graduate Fellowship. This fund helps students cover the cost of everything from travel to archives and conferences and research expenses\, to laptop repair and book purchases. In short\, our students succeed because of the generosity of the History Associates and donors like you.\n \nFor more information about GIVE DAY\, click here.
