It had been a gift from Argentina’s prominent Italian immigrant community\, to celebrate the nation’s centen-nial of independence. After two years of contentious public debates\, Kirchner celebrated the inaugural of the massive monument that replaced it—a sculpture of Jua-na Azurduy de Padilla\, a nineteenth-century female rev-olutionary fighter of indigenous heritage\, and a histori-cal figure previously unknown to most. \nThe controversy over these statues provides a flashpoint to examine the history and iconography of monuments in Buenos Aires’s commemorative core\, to question how history\, identity\, and memory are pro-duced and internalized through public spaces. How did monuments perform specific didactic functions in the past\, and do they continue to do so in the present? If so\, who has authority in representation? What should be-come of monuments to now-questionable heroes and narratives of the past? \nCheryl Jimenez Frei is completing her PhD dissertation in Latin American History. Her research specialties include Argentina\, memory\, and the built environment\, visual culture\, and public history. Her article\, “Contesting Columbus: Monuments\, Memory and Identity in Buenos Aires\,” was recently accepted by the Journal of Latin American Studies.

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.
