Transcultural Approaches to Europe: A Conversation with Fatima El-Tayeb
April 13, 3:00 PM |Online
In this lecture,Professor of Literature and Ethnic Studies at the University of California, San Diego Fatima El-Tayeb and director of study abroad and part-time lecturer for the Comparative History of Ideas DepartmentNicolaas Barr discuss how European identities are constructed through racial amnesia and how the concepts of whiteness, gender, and religion are mobilized in European politics. They might address questions such as: can you decolonize Europe? Why do white Europeans believe they are colorblind? What is the relationship between the so-called refugee crisis and Europes colonial legacy? How are religion, gender and sexuality connected to the rise of right-wing movements? What role do trans-community coalitions play in movements of resistance? Is a multi-religious Europe possible? What is queering ethnicity?
Borders and Blackness: Communicating Belonging and Grief
April 14, 3:30 5:00 PM |Online
Black women imagined and orchestrated #Me Too, Black Lives Matter, Bring Back Our Girls, and Say Her Name campaigns in the U.S. and globally. Recently, the importance of Black womens experiences, interventions, and contributions to Black life and societies at large has crystalized for non-Black audiences in the U.S. and mixed audiences abroad; the ongoing and public response to deaths made increasingly visible on social media plays a significant role in the ways in which communities in the U.S. and abroad regard Black women.
In the second COM Spring colloquium, sponsored by the Department of Communication,Dr. Manoucheka Celeste will address the different ways Black women tend to Black life and death. Specifically, she situates the popularity of representations of Black suffering across media, alongside counter-narratives and communication practices by these communities, in transnational contexts. She explores how Black women respond to existing concerns in emotional and political ways in the public sphere.Using a transnational Blackness framework, Dr. Celeste articulates continuities and ruptures in identities and experiences across geographies to consider the connections between life, death, and social belonging, and what it means for Black women to represent belonging through expressions of grief.

Seattle Art Museum Virtual Saturday University:The Memory of the Ancients in Modern Iranian and Parsi Architecture
April 17, 10:00 11:30 AM |Online
In 1822 six fire temples adorned the cityscapes of West India. By the end of the century, Parsis had augmented that number tenfold. Many of these structures were erected in what they dubbed the Persian Style, on floor plans described as open. From the 1830s to the 1930s, the Persian Revival style evolved simultaneously and codependently in two different geo-cultures: the western coast of the Indian subcontinent, with large Parsi urban populations, as in Bombay and Surat, and the major cities of Qajar and Pahlavi Iran, in particular Shiraz and Tehran. These were interpretative copies of originals, not necessarily of archeological sites but European and native fantastical travelogues as authentic memories and national resilience.
This lecture will be presented byTalinn Grigor,professor and chair of the Art History Program in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of California, Davis. Co-sponsored by the South Asia Center.
