SUMMARY:Public History Colloquium Event–"The Queerness of Home: Public History and the Domestic Archive"
DESCRIPTION:Join the History Department’s Colloquium in Public History on Friday\, May 7 at noon for a Zoom talk by Stephen Vider (History\, Cornell University). \nHistories of queer and trans politics and culture have centered almost exclusively on public activism and spaces. Stephen Vider will discuss how his forthcoming book\, The Queerness of Home: Gender\, Sexuality\, and the Politics of Domesticity After World War II (University of Chicago Press\, October 2021) retells LGBT history from the inside out\, revealing how LGBT people mobilized home spaces as crucial sites of intimate connection\, care\, and cultural inclusion. He’ll focus particularly on the challenges and possibilities of uncovering queer domestic life both in The Queerness of Home and in his 2017 exhibition\, AIDS at Home: Art and Everyday Activism (Museum of the City of New York)—and how a focus on the domestic archive can reshape methods in public history. \nRegister for this event at http://bit.ly/queerness-home \nRecommended links: \nA Place in the City: Three Stories about AIDS at Home\, dir.

SUMMARY:Public History Colloquium Event--"Presenting the Medieval Mediterranean: Museums and Archaeology in National Discourse"
DESCRIPTION:Join the History Department’s Colloquium in Public History on Friday\, April 9 at noon for a Zoom talk by William Tronzo (History of Art\, UC San Diego). \nFrom time immemorial\, material artifacts have played an important role in political discourse: think simply of the use of the crown (in the United Kingdom) or the throne (for example\, the throne of St. Peter in the Roman Catholic Church) in the process of national or institutional self-identification. Over the course of several years\, Tronzo co-directed a collaborative project with Kimberly Bowes (University of Pennsylvania) and an international group of scholars funded by the Getty Foundation and housed at the American Academy in Rome. In this colloquium session\, Tronzo describes the project and goes deeper\, considering some of the ways in which this relationship between the realms of materiality and discourse ramified with regard to the modern period in the nations that form the Mediterranean world. Looking at objects\, texts\, and whole sites\, Tronzo offers a number of case studies of such national self-fashioning\, negotiated and managed through archeology\, collecting\, display and translation\, and set to work within discourses that embrace narrative and ritual. \nRegister for this event at http://bit.ly/medieval-mediterranean \nRecommended Readings:\nAll from Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome\, vol. 62 (2017) (Available on JSTOR)\n \nTHE ROLE AND PERCEPTION OF ISLAMIC ART AND HISTORY IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF A\nSHARED IDENTITY IN SICILY (ca. 1780–1900)\, pp. 5-40\nSilvia Armando\nhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/26787018\n \n \nVISIGOTHS\, CROWNS\, CROSSES\, AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF SPAIN\, pp. 41-64\nFrancisco J.

SUMMARY:Public History Colloquium Event–”Abina and the Important Men: Graphic History as Public History”
DESCRIPTION:Join the History Department’s Colloquium in Public History on Friday\, March 5 at noon for a Zoom talk by Trevor R. Getz (San Francisco State University). \nAbina and the Important Men began as an attempt to address a classroom problem: how to teach students about the dual responsibilities of the historian to historical subjects and contemporary audiences.  These goals both drove its development as a graphic history.  Fortuitously\, its publication caught the leading edge of the rehabilitation of that medium as a serious scholarly mode of communication. This great graphic shift is part of a wider realignment of both the history discipline and popular culture\, and it provides both opportunities and pitfalls for the scholar who wishes to share their work with a broader public while retaining its authenticity and maintaining its accuracy.  This is a discussion by the author of Abina and the Important Men about what he has learned since its publication in first edition in 2012\, with some arguments about the future of the graphic history genre. The graphic novel can be obtained through the Oxford University Press website\, or the community-built 2-D animated video version can be watched here (Password: Independence). \nRegister for this Zoom event at http://bit.ly/abina-webinar. \nRecommended video/reading/short links: \n• “How to Design a Comix Page” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dQEfL2BfUM \n• Julia Alekseyeva\, “Form\, Function\, and Style in the Graphic Essay\,” Sequentials Journal\, 1.4 (May 2020).\nhttps://www.sequentialsjournal.net/issues/issue1.4/alekseyeva.html?fbclid=IwAR0_bxgktwVoNr6TEcWjSeVogcZjM_U36FhvB6GpHXs8mhSfMKSc9PgTz0k  \nRocky Cotard and Laurent Dubois\, “The Slave Revolution That Gave Birth to Haiti\,” The Nib (Feb. 5\, 2018).\nhttps://thenib.com/haitian-revolution/ \n• Nick Sousanis\, “No Sides\,” Spin\, Weave & Cut (blog)\, http://spinweaveandcut.com/no-sides/ \n• Charis Loke & Max Loh\, “The Word for World is Image\,” Singpowrimo\, 20.2:\nhttps://www.singpowrimo.com/features/wordimage?fbclid=IwAR2WSiuLQKWT3EkbJvtBPdC7UmLWquXuduKUGLibIi9sA5jby-sCf1cLqLg \nOther recommended readings:\n• Trevor R.

SUMMARY:Public History Colloquium Event–”Reinterpreting Slavery and the Emotional Labor of History”
DESCRIPTION:Join the History Department’s Colloquium in Public History on Friday\, February 5 at noon for a Zoom talk by Professor Hilary N. Green (University of Alabama). \nProfessor Green reflects on the powerful legacy of Jim Crow era efforts to erase the history of slavery from the landscape of her workplace\, the University of Alabama\, and shares a project she pursued to rewrite this historical narrative. She researched\, designed and implemented a campus tour to tell the actual history of slavery and enslaved workers in the University’s past. She collected oral tradition and pursued deep archival research\, to historicize “the experiences\, activism and collective memories of African American men\, women and children\,” and describes her efforts to get the campus community to rethink its understanding of the past\, even as an untenured member of the faculty. Her project exposed the racist structures undergirding the University Archives; it highlights the tenacity of older narratives and exposes some of the physical and psychological burdens of this sort of historical recuperation for the practitioner. All this unfolded in the larger social struggle over historical monuments and commemoration in recent months. As Green writes\, “when exploring the racial history of one’s employer\, the Jim Crow era archival project of white supremacy is no longer an abstract concept read about only in scholarship.” \nRegister for this Zoom event at https://ucsb.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_yzLVlQ62QNGv7sZz1DenDA. \nTo download the flyer for this event\, click here. \nRecommended reading: \n• Hilary Green\, “The Hallowed Ground Tour: Revising and Reimagining Landscapes of Slavery at the University of Alabama\,” in-progress seminar paper.  \n• Hilary Green\, “The Burden of the University of Alabama’s Hallowed Grounds\,” The Public Historian 42: 4 (November 2020): 28-40.

SUMMARY:“The Visual Archive: Ho-Chunk Cultural Performance\, Modern Labor\, and Survivance in Wisconsin\, 1879-1960.”
DESCRIPTION:This presentation explores the intersections of photographic images\, family history\, tourism\, and Ho-Chunk survivance through an examination of two photographic collections housed at the Wisconsin Historical Society: the Charles Van Schaick Collection and the H.H. Bennett Collection. The Van Schaick collection includes nearly taken between 1879-1936\, and the H.H. Bennett Collection is comprised of hundreds of images of tribal members taken from 1865-1960. Also contained within the Bennett Collection are film reels of the Stand Rock Indian Ceremonial\, a major tourist attraction that employed tribal members in Wisconsin Dells\, WI from the 1920s through the 1960s. The stories that these images convey of the importance of kinship\, place\, modern labor\, cultural performance\, settler colonialism\, and survivance are the central themes of the Ho-Chunk experience in the 20th century\, and my presentation will address these intersecting themes and the ongoing meanings that these images have for contemporary tribal citizens. \nAmy Lonetree\, a member of The Public Historian editorial board\, is author of Decolonizing Museums: Representing Native America in National and Tribal Museums (University of North Carolina Press\, 2012)\, and co-editor with Amanda Cobb of The National Museum of the American Indian: Critical Conversations (University of Nebraska Press\, 2008). \nSponsored by the UCSB Public History Program\, the Department of Anthropology\, and the Department of History. \nLonetree Poster for the event flyer.
