While they are distinct fields with their own trajectories and genealogies Bla ck Studies and African Studies have historically shared a number of impor tant concerns\; particularly around how racialization relates to state fo rmation and sovereignty and how the historical and contemporary experienc es of migration and diaspora have shaped the formation of identity\, nati onally and globally\, among African and African descended people. More re cently\, scholars across these fields have engaged with the planetary cri ses associated with climate change and the Anthropocene as symptomatic of the ongoing lives of racial capitalism and its colonial remains. This gl obal view of blackness both acknowledges and complicates national framewo rks as privileged sites of knowledge-making while invoking the possibilit y of Global Black Studies.\n\nDates: Friday\, Nov. 1\, 9am-4pm\, Saturday \, Nov. 2\, 9am-1pm\n\nLocations: Smith Warehouse\, Bay 4\, Black Archiva l Imagination Lab (Fri. morning) and Bay 5\, Ahmadieh Family Lecture Hall (Fri. afternoon and Sat.) - (Hybrid - Zoom option as well)\n\nFree break fast and lunch for participants\n\nRSVP for in-person participation here: https://forms.gle/MVk8DvZXzYQu1xkQ7\n\nZoom registration linked here: ht tps://duke.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcpcOuhqz4pGtMS_dUa5-Td04Ro8ngm020X\ n\nFor the full program of the symposium\, see: https://sites.duke.edu/ba il/events/african-studies-and-black-studies-intersections-genealogies-and -new-directions/ DURATION:PT1H DTSTAMP:20241020T011531Z DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241019T210000 LAST-MODIFIED:20241020T011531Z LOCATION;X-BEDEWORK-UID=18832e99-2be309ed-012b-e5b90ab4-000001a0:Smith War ehouse\, Ahmadieh Family Lecture Hall\, Bay 4\, C105 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:African Studies and Black Studies: Intersections\, Genealogies and New Directions UID:CAL-8a00048d-91324965-0192-a77e691b-00006af0demobedework@mysite.edu URL:https://sites.duke.edu/bail/events/african-studies-and-black-studies-i ntersections-genealogies-and-new-directions/ X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Main:/user/public-user/Utili ties/Main X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Conference_Symposium:/user/p ublic-user/Lectures_Conferences/Conference_Symposium X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Africa focus:/user/public-us er/Topic of Event Focused on a Country or Continent (if applicable)/Afric a focus X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Global:/user/public-user/Top ic of Event Focused on a Country or Continent (if applicable)/Global X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=United States Focus:/user/pu blic-user/Topic of Event Focused on a Country or Continent (if applicable )/United States Focus X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Diversity/Inclusion:/user/pu blic-user/Topics/Diversity_Inclusion X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Human Rights:/user/public-us er/Topics/Human Rights X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Humanities:/user/public-user /Topics/Humanities X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Politics:/user/public-user/T opics/Politics X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Social Sciences:/user/public -user/Topics/Social Sciences X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Research:/user/public-user/T opics/Research X-BEDEWORK-CS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DESCRIPTION="/principals/users/agrp_AfricaI nitiative,/principals/users/agrp_ArtsandSciences_AfricanandAfricanAmerica nStudies,/principals/users/agrp_JHFC_ConciliumonSouthernAfrica,/principal s/users/agrp_ArtsandSciences_English,/principals/users/agrp_JHFC_Franklin HumanitiesInstitute,":Africa Initiative\,African and African American Stu dies (AAAS)\,Concilium on Southern Africa\,English\,Franklin Humanities I nstitute (FHI) X-BEDEWORK-SPEAKER:Kamari Clarke and more X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-X1:0 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-Y1:0 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-X2:1562 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-Y2:1041.3333333333333 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-CROP-WIDTH:1562 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-CROP-HEIGHT:1041.3333333333333 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-ALT-TEXT:poster of the event with image of the keynote sp eaker X-BEDEWORK-SUBMITTEDBY:elm52 for Black Archival Imagination Lab (agrp_Blac k Archival Imagination Lab) X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE:/public/Images/African Studies and Black Studies symposiu m (2)_20241020011531AM.jpg X-BEDEWORK-THUMB-IMAGE:/public/Images/African Studies and Black Studies sy mposium (2)_20241020011531AM-thumb.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CATEGORIES:Africa focus CATEGORIES:Human Rights CATEGORIES:Humanities CATEGORIES:Social Sciences CATEGORIES:Lectures/Conferences CATEGORIES:Utilities CATEGORIES:Lecture/Talk CATEGORIES:Main CONTACT;X-BEDEWORK-UID=2c918084-5e4b21a8-015e-58b5eff5-00001139:Meyerhoff\ , Eli CREATED:20241007T183938Z DESCRIPTION:BOOK LAUNCH EVENT\n\nYou are invited to join Daniel Magaziner for the launch of his book\, Available Light: Omar Badsha and the Struggl e for Change in South Africa. \n\nTuesday\, October 22\n\n11:00am-1:00pm\ n\nSmith Warehouse\, Bay 4\, Almadieh Family Lecture Hall\n\nFree lunch p rovided (at 12:30pm)\n\nHybrid: also via Zoom - register for the Zoom lin k at https://duke.is/magaziner\n\nDaniel Magaziner (Professor of History\ , Yale University) will be in conversation with Lauren Jarvis (Associate Professor of History\, UNC - Chapel Hill).\n\nBook Description\n\nAvailab le Light tells the story of an activist\, his community and family across the second half of the twentieth century. Born in Durban in 1945\, Omar Badsha's was the third generation of his Gujarati family to call South Af rica home. Before he turned five\, the country's white electorate had vot ed to institute apartheid to strip the rights and privileges of citizensh ip from most of the population\, including Badsha's Indian community and especially the country's Black majority. By the time he turned fifteen\, nonviolent protest against apartheid had been quashed\; by the time he tu rned twenty\, so too had the armed struggle to dislodge white supremacy w ithin the country. The ongoing\, resilient\, and oft-rebuffed struggle ag ainst apartheid was a definitive factor in Badsha's life. It is also the story of the form his activism took: wherein aesthetic searching and subj ective experience drove him to create an impassioned\, engaged art\, firs t as a graphic artist\, eventually as a photographer\, and then an archiv ist. Creating helped him to refine his voice and to capture the political ethic by which he strove to live his life and which he shared with simil arly committed artist-activists. Available Light chronicles how art and p olitics became intertwined in South Africa and explains what it takes to maintain a critical aesthetic approach to political crises in the past an d present.\n\nAuthor Biography \n\nDan Magaziner a Professor in the Histo ry Department at Yale University.

[A] book that deserves re ading and remembering in the pandemic age." \n-The New York Times Book Re view\n\nNew York City in 1929 was a hotbed for the rampant disease tuberc ulosis\, or TB\, that claimed one in seven lives in the U.S. alone. Many sought the refuge of sanatoriums\, or specialty hospitals\, to treat the deadly virus\, also known by its other name\, "the consumption." Ground z ero in New York for TB was Sea View Hospital in Staten Island. But with m ore jobs opening up to women\, from cashiers to stenographers to switchbo ard operators\, the White nurses at Sea View gradually left for less risk y work. In the wake of this staff fallout\, city officials reached out to Black nurses in the South by offering them an escape from Jim Crow with better pay. These nurses\, dubbed by the dying patients of Sea View as "B lack Angels\," became crucial to the discovery of a cure of the killer si ckness while desegregating the New York City hospital system. Their silen ced story is now brought to light with the new book\, "The Black Angels: The Untold Story of the Nurses Who Helped Cure Tuberculosis\," a dynamic debut by author Maria Smilios. \n\nRegister here: https://duke.is/v/gnp9\ n\n"Smilios is a rare combination of rigorous scientist and an exquisite writer..." -The Lancet\n\nSmilios will join Dr. Mark Anthony Neal\, host of the Webby Award-nominated series "Left of Black\," to discuss her new book.\n\nMaria Smilios is an award-winning author\, keynote speaker\, and adjunct lecturer at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health. She was born and raised in New York City. She holds a Master of Arts in American literature and religion from Boston University where she was a L uce and Presidential scholar. Her work has appeared in The Guardian\, Nar ratively\, The Forward\, Lit Hub\, Writers Digest\, The Emancipator\, and other publications. \n\nThe Black Angels won the 2024 Christopher Award in literature\, which celebrates works that "affirm the highest values of the human spirit." It was also a finalist for the prestigious Gotham Boo k Prize and chosen as an NPR Science Friday Summer Read for 2024.\n\nThis public event will take place at the Ahmadieh Family Lecture Hall John Ho pe Franklin located at Smith Warehouse\, Bay 4\, 114 South Buchanan Blvd. in Durham. Copies of both of The Black Angels will be distributed to the first 25 attendees of the event.

\nDespite centuries of settler colonialism\, Lumbee people a nd their Indigenous neighbors still occupy parts of their ancestral homel ands among forested swamps\, sandy plains\, and blackwater streams of pre sent-day North Carolina. Amid these backwaters\, Indigenous communities h ave adapted to a radically transformed world while preserving cultures an d connections to place. In recent decades\, however\, pollution\, unsust ainable development\, and climate change quicken the transformation of In digenous homelands and threaten Indigenous life-ways on the Coastal Plain . In this presentation\, I share stories from North Carolina about Indige nous survival\, adaptation\, and resurgence in the face of radical transf ormation\, and I discuss broader lessons about environmental justice and Indigenous rights in the 21st century.
\nRyan Emanuel is Associate Professor of the Nicholas School of the Environment and Co-Chair of Commu nity Engagement and Environmental Justice. He is a hydrologist and commun ity-engaged scholar from North Carolina. He studies ecohydrology\, biogeo sciences\, environmental justice\, and Indigenous rights. Emanuel leads a group of researchers and scholars who study water and watery places in N orth Carolina and beyond. His group also partners with Native American Tr ibes and other communities to understand environmental change through the lenses of environmental justice and Indigenous rights. Their work involv es research\, education\, and relationship-building. Emanuel aims to ampl ify voices of Indigenous and other marginalized communities who shoulder disproportionate environmental burdens.

While they are distinct fields with their own trajectories and genealogies Bla ck Studies and African Studies have historically shared a number of impor tant concerns\; particularly around how racialization relates to state fo rmation and sovereignty and how the historical and contemporary experienc es of migration and diaspora have shaped the formation of identity\, nati onally and globally\, among African and African descended people. More re cently\, scholars across these fields have engaged with the planetary cri ses associated with climate change and the Anthropocene as symptomatic of the ongoing lives of racial capitalism and its colonial remains.

\nThe story of the rise of "energy" usually centers the Indu strial Revolution and the coal-powered steam engine in nineteenth-century Western Europe. Though it often escapes notice\, the Caribbean was actua lly the site of the first known industrial application of a steam engine (on a sugar plantation) and the world's first oil well (drilled by a US c ompany in southern Trinidad). These "firsts" point toward energy's roots in colonial and imperial projects of extraction in the Caribbean\, reveal ing the centrality of race and the plantation in understanding energy cap italism and the current climate crisis. This talk/article traces a Caribb ean-centric genealogy of "energy." While taken for granted today as an ab stract universal\, energy was bound to specific forms of racial governanc e during the transition from sugar to fossil fuels as apex capitalist com modities. In tracing this genealogy\, I rewrite the first two "laws of en ergy" as ethico-political statements on racial governance rather than des criptions of a pre-existing natural order. Adding to scholarship that has laid bare the relationship between biological sciences and race\, I argu e that energy sciences have also been central to sustaining (while occlud ing) racialized hierarchy. I then look at conceptions of energy in one so uthern Caribbean petro-state (Trinidad and Tobago) to elaborate speculati ve alternatives to the "laws of energy."

A Q&A se ssion will follow the screening. "Hotel Splendid" is an ethnographic film about the struggles of Africans attempting to cross the Mediterranean an d their reception in the small city of Cesenatico. There\, local communit y volunteers seek to support the new arrivals through initial settlement\ , preparation for Italian Immigration interviews\, and in a handful of ca ses the transition to working lives in Italy. Bucci has made two films ab out African refugees in Italy and their experiences of legal and illegal settlement\, and on occasion deportation. Attempts to cross the Mediterra nean from Tripoli are dangerous and often fatal begging the question why and in what circumstances would someone choose the treacherous journey. F or some the reasons are political persecution for others economic hardshi p and for many\, increasingly\, the knock-on effects of climate change.\n \nMauro Bucci is an Italian award-winning filmmaker and independent resea rcher. Bucci holds a Masters in Cinema from the University of Bologna and a post-graduate diploma from the School of Visual Ethnography in Rome.

Ferguson\, in the days before desegregation\, southern states were able to fund the graduate education of Black student s by forming separate-but-equal programs at tax-supported HBCU's or havin g them attend a historically white university in their state. Instead\, t hese "segregation scholarships' ended up paying for many of these African American graduate students to be sent away by relocating them in the Nor th\, out West\, and in the Heartland of the U.S.\, thus robbing Black col leges of this influx in financial support. After Brown v. Board of Educat ion passed and ended segregation\, these scholarships started to decline but with no consorted effort to institutionalize graduate programs at pub lic Black colleges in the South\, which increased the racial disparity in American higher education. \n\nDr. Crystal R. Sanders\, Associate Profes sor of African American Studies at Emory University\, examines how the ef forts to preserve segregation led to the underfunding of Black colleges i n her new book\, "A Forgotten Migration: Black Southerners\, Segregation Scholarships\, and the Debt Owed to Public HBCUs\," just published by The University of North Carolina Press on October 15\, 2024. Dr. Sanders als o brings a spotlight to the myriad challenges faced by these Black gradua te students who were far from home including isolation\, financial hardsh ip\, and discrimination. "A Forgotten Migration" is part of the distingui shed John Hope Franklin Series in African American History and Culture co mpiled by UNC Press to publish "...pathbreaking books informed by several disciplines..."\n\nOn Thursday\, November 21st \, from 6:30 to 8pm\, Dr. Sanders will join host Mark Anthony Neal\, the creator and host of the W ebby Award-nominated and Davey Award-winning series "Left of Black\," at the Franklin Humanities Institute (FHI) to discuss her new book\, still h ot of the press. Free copies of "A Forgotten Migration" will be given awa y at the event on a first-come-first-serve basis where attendees can also have their book signed. \n\n"Left of Black Presents: Small Talk at FHI\, " is a new event sub-series inspired by the legendary jazz poet Gil Scott -Heron's first album\, Small Talk at 125th and Lenox. Attendees may be vi deotaped for the upcoming episode of this event on YouTube.

One of th e most extreme droughts on record is ongoing across the Amazon basin. The current drought is just part of a pattern of hydrologic extremes manifes ted over the past two decades by record droughts alternating with record floods\, a climate pattern with major implications for the forest\, its b iodiversity\, and human well-being. The cause(s) of the drought are uncer tain\, but anthropogenic global climate change is likely a major culprit. This colloquium brings together natural scientists who are experts on th e geology\, biology\, and climate of the Amazon. Their collective experti se on the long-term biotic\, climatic\, and geologic evolution of the Ama zon/tropical South American region provides important perspective on rece nt climate change and significant insight into the future of this key reg ion on Earth. \n\nThursdays program will begin with Biologic Evolution of the Amazon at 1:30pm\, featuring presentations by Dr. Toby Pennington (U niversity of Exeter)\, Dr. Chris Dick (University of Michigan)\, Dr. Mile s Silman (Wake Forest U)\, and Dr. Lucia Lohman (Missouri Botanical Garde ns).\n\nSponsored by the Duke-Brazil Initiative and Duke Center for Latin American and Caribbean Studies\, Duke Office of Global Affairs\, Duke-FA PESP Sprint Program\, Latin American Ecological Thought Reading Group and Franklin Humanities Institute\, Nicholas Institute for Energy\, Environm ent & Sustainability\, Trinity College of Arts and Sciences\, Duke Global Health Institute\, Nicholas School of the Environment and the Division o f Earth and Climate Sciences\, Duke Office of Climate and Sustainability DURATION:PT5H DTSTAMP:20250312T225127Z DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250327T130000 LAST-MODIFIED:20250312T225127Z LOCATION;X-BEDEWORK-UID=18832e99-2be309ed-012b-e5b90ab4-000001a0:Smith War ehouse\, Ahmadieh Family Lecture Hall\, Bay 4\, C105 STATUS:CONFIRMED SUMMARY:Colloquium on the Climate\, Geologic\, & Biologic Evolution of the Amazon UID:CAL-8a000483-92c3adf6-0195-8c8a5ec8-00006267demobedework@mysite.edu URL:https://latinamericancaribbean.duke.edu/programs/duke-brazil-initiativ e/amazon-conference/ X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Main:/user/public-user/Utili ties/Main X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Conference_Symposium:/user/p ublic-user/Lectures_Conferences/Conference_Symposium X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=South America focus:/user/pu blic-user/Topic of Event Focused on a Country or Continent (if applicable )/South America focus X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Global:/user/public-user/Top ic of Event Focused on a Country or Continent (if applicable)/Global X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Natural Sciences:/user/publi c-user/Topics/Natural Sciences X-BEDEWORK-ALIAS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DISPLAYNAME=Research:/user/public-user/T opics/Research X-BEDEWORK-CS;X-BEDEWORK-PARAM-DESCRIPTION="/principals/users/agrp_DukeBra zilInitiative,/principals/users/agrp_NSOE_NicholasInstituteforEnvironment alPolicySolutions,/principals/users/agrp_NSOE-EnvSciPol,/principals/users /agrp_NSOE,/principals/users/agrp_Office of Climate and Sustainability,/p rincipals/users/agrp_OfficeofGlobalStrategy,":Duke Brazil Initiative\,Nic holas Institute for Energy\, Environment and Sustainability\,Nicholas Sch ool-Environmental Science and Policy\,Nicholas School of the Environment\ ,Office of Climate and Sustainability\,Office of Global Affairs X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-X1:0 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-Y1:0 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-X2:529.5 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-Y2:353 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-CROP-WIDTH:529.5 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-CROP-HEIGHT:353 X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE-ALT-TEXT:flyer for Amazon evolution colloquium X-BEDEWORK-SUBMITTEDBY:jprather for Center for Latin American and Caribbea n Studies (CLACS) (agrp_JHFC_CenterforLatinAmericanandCaribbeanStudies) X-BEDEWORK-IMAGE:/public/Images/amazon conference image 4 conference_20250 312104712PM.png X-BEDEWORK-THUMB-IMAGE:/public/Images/amazon conference image 4 conference _20250312104712PM-thumb.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CATEGORIES:Featured CATEGORIES:Human Rights CATEGORIES:Diversity/Inclusion CATEGORIES:Humanities CATEGORIES:Arts CATEGORIES:Lectures/Conferences CATEGORIES:Utilities CATEGORIES:Movie/Film CATEGORIES:Panel/Seminar/Colloquium CATEGORIES:Main CONTACT;X-BEDEWORK-UID=18832edc-1b31c518-011b-40c15211-000000f4:Kirk\, Rob in X-BEDEWORK-COST:Free and open to the public CREATED:20250203T000213Z DESCRIPTION:BEING MICHELLE is an award-winning feature-length documentary film that follows the astonishing journey of a Deaf and Disabled woman wh o survived incarceration and abuse.
