SUMMARY:International Graduate Student Conference: Borders\, Power and Transgression
DESCRIPTION:A border is what separates things\, and the border’s very existence is inseparable both from the power that sustains it and from the possibility of its transgression. In recent years\, the relationship between borders—political\, geographical and symbolic—and State power has taken on a special significance in the public arena. Transgression\, for its part\, is an ambivalent term\, as it may encompass very different ideas—from resistance against oppression to the erosion of institutions on behalf of authoritarianism or corporate profit. Analyzing borders and power must take this ambivalence into account.\n\nIn this conference graduate students from the US and the world will discuss borders as a broad and fluid concept\, encompassing not only geographical or political boundaries\, but also questions like gender\, race\, ethnicity\, discursive practices\, and more broadly\, notions like limit\, frontier\, division and critique. There will be contributions from a variety of disciplines in the social sciences\, the humanities and the arts. \n\nRegister to attend this conference and the keynote talks here. \n  \n\n\n\n\nPROGRAM\n\n\nKEYNOTE GUESTS\n\n\nPANEL ABSTRACTS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKeynotes \nApril 7\, 3:00PM to 4:30PM (PST)\nConversation with historian Christine Hünefeldt: Crafting Borders?\nWith the participation of: Marlene Torres-Magaña and Emma Zamora Garcia.\nCHRISTINE HUNEFELDT\nProfessor Emeritus\, History\, University of California San Diego\n\nApril 8\, 1:30PM to 3:00PM (PST)\nBorder Thinking & Living la Vida Fronteriza (the Border Life)\nMELISSA WRIGHT\nProfessor\, Geography\,  Pennsylvania State University\n\nApril 9\, 2:00PM to 3:30PM (PST)\nAssessing the Damage: Reflections on the Trump Administration’s Dismantling of the U.S. Asylum System\nKAI MEDEIROS\, J.D.\nStaff Attorney\, American Bar Association\, Immigration Justice Project\, San Diego

SUMMARY:A Wave of Difference: Language Expression in the Argentine Feminist Imaginary
DESCRIPTION:Join this LAIS co-sponsored event to hear from Nicolas Cuello (National University of La Plata\, Argentina).\n\nLink: https://tinyurl.com/ve3fxb6c (Passcode: argentina)\n\nIn the context of a disproportionate increase in sexual violence against cis\, trans\, and transvestite women since 2015\, Argentine feminisms have prefigured the untimely irruption of public space in both process and form. The movements; interventions not only impact the social conditions and the epistemic tools for popular intelligibility of language expression of gender violence\, through an innovative use of communication technologies and social networks\, but also articulate\, from the multidimensionality in which inequality operates by gender and more broadly\, a transversal resistance to the oppressive characteristics that would accompany the neoliberal turn produced by public policy under President Mauricio Macri’s corporate governance mandate (2015-2019). This new state of public attention and mass representation allowed a reorganization of desires to spread and multiply across territories\, professional careers\, bodies\, and communities throughout the country\, which would forever transform the contours of a traditionally instituted political subject\, expanding its affective capacity to rework new forms of connection between the personal and the political\, extending the singular opportunity of its criticism to all spheres of social organization. In this way\, local feminisms constructed networks of theoretical exchange and practical solidarity between cis and trans women\, which to this day connect\, in a complex way and not without tension\, a concert of experiences that link and incorporate radical differences and specific demands of the sectors of working women\, ecologists\, diverse functional\, queer\, unionists\, anti-racists\, piqueteras\, educators\, prostitutes and racialized\, among many others\, in a structural critique of the functioning capitalist economic order.\n\nNicolás Cuello is a PhD candidate at the National Council for Scientific and Technical Research in Argentina. He is affiliated to the Gino Germani Research Institute at the University of Buenos Aires and also works as an Assistant Professor at the National University of the Arts. As an archivist he is part of the iniciative “Sex and Revolution” a Programme of feminist and sexed/gendered political memories at CeDInCI\, the Centre for Documentation and Research on Leftist Culture. His work focuses on the intersection of artistic practices\, queer politics\, critical representations of negative emotions and alternative graphic cultures in Argentina.

DESCRIPTION:Join us for a LAIS Tertulia in the Time of COVID\, 2020-2021!\n\nIn her widely acclaimed book Caste: The Origins of our Discontents\, Isabel Wilkerson complicates the category of race\, as it is commonly understood in the US\, by bringing caste to the fore. She discusses the “caste” historical experience of the US in light of those in Nazi Germany and India. Insofar as the term “caste” was first introduced in India by the Portuguese at a time when the Spanish and Portuguese empires had a global colonial reach\, Wilkerson’s book provides a perfect pretext for the Program in Latin American and Iberian Studies (LAIS) to launch a global conversation. In this roundtable\, UCSB faculty from Black Studies\, History\, and LAIS specialized in the US\, India\, and Latin America discuss their take on caste\, race\, and Isabel Wilkerson.\n\nSpeakers (UC Santa Barbara)\nUtathya Chattopadhyaya is Assistant Professor of History at the University of California\, Santa Barbara. He specializes in the history of modern South Asia\, British imperialism\, and agrarian commodities in global markets. His essays have appeared in A Cultural History of Western Empires\, the South African Historical Journal\, Historical Reflections\, English Language Notes\, and the edited volume Animalia: An Anti-Imperial Bestiary for our Times. He is currently working on a monograph on cannabis and empire in British India.\n\nCecilia Méndez  is a Peruvian historian specialized in the social and political history of the Andean region.She is the director of the Latin American and Iberian Studies Program at UC Santa Barbara and an Associated Professor in History. Her work calls the attention on the importance of late eighteenth-century\, and nineteenth-century political developments in shaping modern conceptions nationhood\, citizenship\, and  “race.”\n\nTerrance Wooten is an Assistant Professor in Black Studies. He is currently working on his first book manuscript\, “Lurking in the Shadows of Home: Homelessness\, Carcerality\, and the Figure of the Sex Offender\,” which examines how those who have been designated “sex offenders” and are homeless in the Maryland/DC area are managed and regulated through social policies\, sex offender registries\, and urban and architectural design. His scholarly interests are located at the intersections of Black studies\, gender and sexuality studies\, studies of poverty and homelessness\, and carceral studies. \n\nJoin us: bit.ly/LAISTertulia \n(Zoom ID: 840 6161 2112)

SUMMARY:Tertulia: Social Movements\, Identity\, and Resistance in Contemporary Nicaragua
DESCRIPTION:You can watch a recording of this Tertulia here: https://youtu.be/zXXfEU7ThzQ\n\nJoin us for a LAIS Tertulia in the Time of COVID\, 2020-2021!\n\nThe people of Nicaragua have faced a series of compounding crises over the past decade: the growing authoritarianism of the Ortega-Murillo government\, assaults on women’s and LGBT rights\, colonization of indigenous and Afro-descendant communities’ territory\, and\, in 2018\, mass protests that were harshly repressed by pro-government forces. In the face of these crises and threats\, social movements\, activists\, artists\, opposition politicians\, and communities have mobilized to resist government policies and assert their rights. As Nicaragua confronts the COVID-19 crisis with a denialist and obstructive government response and with elections looming in 2021\, this roundtable discussion explores the ideas and actions of different sectors of Nicaraguan society and what visions and lessons they might have for the country’s future.\n\n\nSpeakers: Cristina Awadalla (Sociology\, UC Santa Barbara)\, Jennifer Goett (Comparative Cultures & Politics\, Michigan State University)\, Mateo Jarquín (History\, Chapman University) and Emilia Yang (Media Arts + Practice\, University of Southern California).\n\nModerated by Kai Thaler (Global Studies\, UC Santa Barbara) and with comments by Charles Hale (Dean of Social Sciences\, UC Santa Barbara).\n\n\nJoin us: http://bit.ly/LAISTertuliaDec2020 \n(Zoom ID: 889 8816 2941)

SUMMARY:Ixil Maya Resistance against Megaprojects in Cotzal\, Guatemala
DESCRIPTION:Join us to hear from Dr. Giovanni Batz (UC President’s Postdoctoral Fellow\, UC Davis) about “Ixil Maya Resistance against Megaprojects in Cotzal\, Guatemala” \n\nAmong the Ixil Maya of Guatemala\, the arrival of megaprojects is referred to as the “new invasion”. This presentation examines a movement in Cotzal\, Guatemala against the construction of the Palo Viejo hydroelectric plant built by the Italian company Enel on the finca San Francisco from 2008-2012. The struggle was characterized by peaceful resistance\, a four-month blockade\, and the arrival of the military. I argue that the arrival of megaprojects\, such as Palo Viejo\, continues the history of a colonial logic of extraction\, and is an extension of the historical tensions between the Indigenous Peoples\, the fincas\, and the Guatemalan state.\n\nCo-sponsored by the Global Studies Department\, Anthropology Department\, Latin American and Iberian Studies\, and Program\, and American Indian and Indigenous Collective.\n\nJoin us on Zoom: https://ucsb.zoom.us/j/87106420611

SUMMARY:Coronavirus and Historical Patterns of Epidemics in Latin America
DESCRIPTION:A Zoom Talk by Dr. Marcos Cueto\n\nWednesday\, May 13\, at 12 pm – 1:30 pm (PST)\, via Zoom\n\nAbstract. Historical studies on epidemics in Latin America have magnified fragilities in public health structures\, revealed the vulnerability of the poor and discovered cases of heroism under adversity. They have also identified an historical trend –revived in the contemporary crisis caused by Covid-19– characterized by a reductionism in the explanation of the social factors that sustain epidemics\, insufficient and contradictory official responses and stigma against marginal groups. This presentation will discuss the main historical patterns of response to epidemics in Latin America\, especially in Brazil\, during the late 20th and early 21st centuries and relate them to the coronavirus pandemic.\n\nMarcos Cueto is Professor of History of Health at the Casa Oswaldo Cruz\, FIOCRUZ\, in Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil\, and a Researcher in the Instituto de Estudios Peruanos in Lima. He holds a PhD from Columbia University and was a postdoctoral fellow at the Science\, Technology and Society Program at the MIT. His major books include A History of the World Health Organization (2019); Medicine and Public Health in Latin America (2016) (co-authored with S. Palmer)\, which won the 2017 George Rosen Award of the American Association for the History of Medicine; Cold War and Deadly Fevers: Malaria Eradication in Mexico\, 1955-1970 (2007)\, among many others. He has been a visiting professor at Harvard\, the University of Shanghai\, the University College London\, L’Institut de hautes études internationales et du dévelopement in Geneva\, Stanford\, Princeton\, Columbia\, and New York University and was fellow of the Guggenheim\, Mellon\, Tinker\, Ford\, and Rockefeller foundations.  He publishes regularly in English\, Spanish and Portuguese. For more on his work see https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Marcos_Cueto7\n\n* Professor Cueto will be joining us from Rio de Janeiro\, Brazil. This event is organized by the Program in Latin American and Iberian Studies with generous cosponsorship from the Department of History.\n\nPlease sign up here to attend: https://bit.ly/LAISTertuliaMay2020 or email lisamcallister@ucsb.edu

SUMMARY:History of Art and Architecture 2019-2020 Lecture Series: Making. "Were They Enslaved? A New Look at Maya Figurines"
DESCRIPTION:Please join the LAIS Community in attending the Department of History of Art and Architecture’s public lecture “Were They Enslaved? A New Look at Maya Figurines”\, delivered by Mary Miller (Director\, The Getty Research Institute) Maya figurines of the 8th century from the island of Jaina\, off Yucatan\, Mexico\, long admired for their lifelike\, poignant\, and sometimes amusing characteristics\, reveal a complexity of Maya practice rarely seen in other media\, such as painted ceramics or monumental sculpture. The figurines can be seen through a variety of lenses: recent archaeology has provided rich new contexts for consideration and extensive examination of hundreds of examples in Mexico\, Europe\, and the United States makes it possible to see previously unrecognized roles and rituals\, as well as patterns of facture and distribution. Additionally\, identification of patterns of costume and accouterment offers fresh insights into this elegant figurine tradition. Dr. Mary Miller is the Director of the Getty Research Institute. A specialist in the art of the ancient New World\, she is the author of The Murals of Bonampak\, The Art of Mesoamerica (now in its 6th edition)\, Maya Art and Architecture (with Megan O’Neil)\, and editor of Painting a Map of Mexico City (with Barbara Mundy)\, among several other books. She has also curated multiple important exhibitions including The Courtly Art of the Ancient Maya at the National Gallery of Art\, Washington\, D.C. and the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco and co-curated The Blood of Kings with Linda Schele at the Kimbell Art Museum. A member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\, Dr. Miller has received fellowships from the Guggenheim Memorial Foundation and the Getty. Prior to becoming the Director of the Getty Research Institute in January 2019\, she was the Sterling Professor of the History of Art at Yale University\, the Senior Director of Yale’s Institute for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage\, and became the first woman to be Dean of Yale College when she served from 2008-2014. \nHAA Event Page

SUMMARY:5th Bi-Annual Sal Castro Memorial Conference on the Emerging Historiography of the Chicano Movement
DESCRIPTION:The 5th Bi-Annual Sal Castro Memorial Conference on the Emerging Historiography of the Chicano Movement to be held Feb. 28-29\, 2020 in the McCune Room of the IHC. The conference is named after Sal Castro\, one of the major historical figures of the Chicano Movement of the 1960s and 1970s. Sal Castro\, as a high school teacher in the East Los Angeles public schools\, inspired the Chicano high school students to engage in the East L.A. “Blowouts” or walkouts\, the largest high school strike in American history. The students walked out of their schools for a week to protest decades of discrimination and inferior education administered to Mexican American students not only in Los Angeles but throughout the Southwest where the majority of Mexican Americans lived at that time. The 5th Sal Castro Memorial Conference will build on the successes of the previous four held in 2012\, 2014\, 2016\, and 2018. The 5th Bi-Annual Sal Castro Memorial Conference will bring together 28 participants who in the two days of the conference will again bring to light many new and exciting aspects of the Chicano Movement. These conferences have made UCSB into the center of Chicano Movement Studies. Focusing on the civil rights struggles of the Chicano Movement is also a way in which these conferences help to revise the meaning of civil rights history by expanding it from a strictly black-white history to a multi-racial history including the significant role of Chicanos. At a larger level\, the conferences help to further revise the meaning of American history to include and integrate groups such as Chicanos and other Latinos in that history. Chicano history is American history.
