Wherein\, on the contrary\, theoretical disposition and proclamations of affiliation have often been afforded the foreground. While affirming acute theoretical work\, this lecture series accentuates the exacting scholarly dimension of the work required from young practitioners in order for them to produce the most profound and lasting contributions to knowledge\, both within the academic formation of the fields they inhabit and within contemporary practices of understanding in general.

SUMMARY:Rethinking Black Feminism and the Women of the Black Arts Movement
DESCRIPTION:UCSB Center for Black Studies Research & the UC Consortium for Black Studies in California Present \nKim McMillon\, UC Merced PhD Candidate \nand \nMargo Natalie Crawford\, Cornell University professor and author of the forthcoming Black Post-Blackness:\n The Black Arts Movement and 21st Century Aesthetics \non \n“Rethinking Black Feminism and the Women of the Black Arts Movement” \nFriday\, December 2nd\, 2016 \n10:00am \n\n\n\nMcCune Conference Room\, 6020 HSSB \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Crawford and Ms. McMillon are uniquely positioned to offer new scholarship on the women of the Black Arts Movement. Ms. McMillon organized two major Black Arts Movement conferences including the Dillard University-Harvard’s Hutchins Center Black Arts Movement conference held in September 2016. McMillon applies a black feminist approach to the study of the Black Arts Movement. She argues that the silencing and invisibility of black women has its origins in fear\, fear contained in the ideology of the need to suppress that which is ultimately power unrealized. Black women are cloaked in gendered as well as racial invisibility\, and it is through ancestralness that this invisibility is removed\, and the women of the Black Arts Movement find liberation. In her paper\, Professor Crawford examines these same issues\, arguing that during the Black Arts Movement\, certain black women artists developed an aesthetic of detours as they saw the prohibited\, male-dominated zones and swerved. Crawford analyzes the swerves of Carolyn Rodgers\, Nikki Giovanni\, Alice Childress\, and the “Where We At?” visual art collective. Crawford asserts that black women artists\, during the Black Arts Movement\, sometimes look “elsewhere” (past the signs that the male leaders of the movement are holding) and dislodge the dominant frames of the 1960s and 70s black male nationalism.

SUMMARY:Black Feminism\, The Carceral State\, and Abolition
DESCRIPTION:A Book Talk by Sarah Haley with responses by Mariame Kaba and Dayo F. Gore \n\n\n\n\n\nDrawing upon black feminist criticism and a diverse array of archival materials\, Sarah Haley’s No Mercy Here: Gender\, Punishment\, and the Making of Jim Crow Modernity illuminates black women’s experiences of imprisonment in the South to uncover how gendered regimes of incarceration were crucial to the making of Jim Crow modernity. No Mercy Here examines the brutalization of imprisoned women in local\, county\, and state convict labor systems\, while also situating them within the black radical tradition by illuminating practices of resistance\, refusal\, and sabotage that challenged ideologies of racial capitalism and patriarchy\, offering alternative conceptions of social and political life and envisioning a world beyond prisons. \n\n\n\n\n\nCosponsored by the Center for the Study of Women\, Department of Gender Studies\, Department of African American Studies\, Institute of American Cultures\, and the Bunche Center for African American Studies

SUMMARY:Maroons and World History
DESCRIPTION:Apply for a travel grant for this event. Please go to the travel grants page on the \nCBSC website http://cbsc.ucla.edu/travel-grants-call-for-applications/ for submission details \nNote: If this grant is to be used for travel to an event\, the application must be received before the event has taken place.  \n *Please register at website above \nPROCEDURE  \nPapers will be pre-circulated. Presenters will not read their papers; people interested in attending the conference should be sure to read the papers in advance. Panels will feature comments from respondents followed by open discussion. We hope that anyone interested in attending the conference will read the papers in advance and arrive ready to engage with them. Registration is free but required.  \nCONFERENCE THEME  \nThe purpose of this conference is to engage with marronage both as an empirical case and as an occasion for thought. We are especially interested in aspects of marronage that resist explanation when maroon communities are seen as a creole amalgam of recognizable cultural elements retained or recombined. What historiographical\, cartographical\, or philosophical approaches are best suited to conceptualizing the world from the perspective of the maroon? What assumptions obstruct this focalization? We will address these questions both as problems of practical knowledge conceived at a range of scales and as a theoretical problem of orientation. What would it take\, and would it mean\, to see the maroon as the subject of history? What happens when we imagine neither the factory nor the plantation but instead the unenclosed wasteland as the setting for the development of political consciousness? Our plan then is to look to particular examples\, from Saint Malo to Queen Nanny\, Palmares to the Great Dismal Swamp\, pressing on their implications for our thinking about sovereignty and self-organization; outlawry and escape; crime and custom; kinship and ethnogenesis; knowledge\, conspiracy\, and the paranoid style; treaty\, fetish\, and sacred oath; settlement\, subsistence\, and so-called secondary primitivism. \n  \nSCHEDULE \n 8:45-9:00 Coffee \n 9:00-9:10 Welcome-Bryan Wagner  \n 9:10-11:00 Introduction by Shad A.

SUMMARY:UCLA African American Studies Event - A Black Radical Roundtable:  What is Black Studies?
DESCRIPTION:A Black Radical Roundtable: What is Black Studies?\nThis roundtable seeks to provide a range of perspectives on the contours of black studies as an intellectual project. Do we understand black studies as theory? Praxis? Critique? Demand? An object of knowledge and/or method of knowledge production?  The roundtable will begin by asking each participant to engage with the question “what is black studies?” using whatever approach to the question is most generative for them. Participants might offer insights about their own training including\, the questions\, debates\, historical moments\, topics\, thinkers\, and political contexts and struggles that influenced their entry into the field.  They might engage how their central research questions have changed over the course of their intellectual development\, or focus on the debates that seem to animate the field today. They might reflect upon how black studies shapes other disciplines (history\, anthropology\, sociology\, literary and cultural studies) and conceptual frameworks (performance\, geography/space\, music\, agency\, resistance\, subjection\, migration\, immigration\, etc.). The initial response could be framed through the influence of a single text\, question\, or topic\, or it could map out a broad set of questions and issues that shape your analysis of the field.  In some ways\, the dissonance and convergences between the approaches to the question will be part of the conversation about black studies as an intellectual project. \nThis event will be followed by a Reception and an Open House. \nTravel grants are available to Faculty or graduate students wanting to attend this event.\nPriority funding will be given for attending Consortium events.\nPlease go to the travel grants page for submission details.\nNote: The application must be received before the event has taken place; no retroactive applications will be approved.
