SUMMARY:Nicole George\, "Women\, Peace\, and Security through a Vernacular Frame: Global/local frictions in Solomon Islands and Bougainville"
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the UCLA Department of Asian American Studies\nSince the early 2000s\, United Nations Security Council Resolutions on Women Peace and Security\, and particularly UNSCR 1325\, have become a key focus of policy making and gender advocacy for those aiming to promote women’s roles in conflict resolution and conflict transition in the western Pacific Islands region. But in these contexts\, arguments about the rights of women to be recognized as those who bear specific sorts of burdens in times of instability\, or those who bring particular types of skills or insights to the processes of post-conflict governance also come into friction with vernacular notions of security and localized sentiments about the foundations for the safe ordering of community. In this presentation Nicole George reflects on recent academic development of the concept of vernacular security and the insights this work might offer into the challenges surrounding promotion of women peace and security principles in this region. George then draws upon lessons learned from research with everyday communities of women impacted by the long process of conflict transition. George examines where and how frictions occur between conceptualizations of gendered security that uphold women’s rights to safety and participation\, and those which equate gendered security with respect for\, and adherence to\, gendered codes of responsibility to family and community. \nNicole George is a leading feminist in Oceania and the author of Situating Women: Gender Politics and Circumstance in Fiji (Australian National University Press\, 2012). \nDATE: April 9\, 2018 \nTIME: 3:00 PM \nLOCATION: Rolfe 2125

SUMMARY:Maria Josefina Saldaña-Portillo\, "Indian Given: Racial Geographies Across Mexico and the United States"
DESCRIPTION:Indian Given: Racial Geographies Across Mexico and the United States\nA Book Talk by Maria Josefina Saldaña-Portillo\nMaría Josefina Saldaña-Portillo is Professor of Social and Cultural Analysis at NYU and Visiting Professor of English at UC Berkeley. She is the author of The Revolutionary Imagination in the Americas and the Age of Development (Duke University Press\, 2003) and Indian Given: Racial Geographies Across Mexico and the United States (Duke University Press\, 2016). Indian Given was awarded the Best Book Award from the National Association for Chicano and Chicana Studies (NACCS) in 2017 \nIn Indian Given María Josefina Saldaña-Portillo addresses current racialized violence and resistance in Mexico and the United States with a genealogy that reaches back to the sixteenth century. Saldaña-Portillo formulates the central place of indigenous peoples in the construction of national spaces and racialized notions of citizenship\, showing\, for instance\, how Chicanos/as in the U.S./Mexico borderlands might affirm or reject their indigenous background based on their location.  In this and other ways\, she demonstrates how the legacies of colonial Spain’s and Britain’s differing approaches to encountering indigenous peoples continue to shape perceptions of the natural\, racial\, and cultural landscapes of the United States and Mexico. Drawing on a mix of archival\, historical\, literary\, and legal texts\, Saldaña-Portillo shows how los indios/Indians provided the condition of possibility for the emergence of Mexico and the United States.\n\nProfessor Saldaña’s presentation addresses the imbrication of NAFTA\, narcos\, and the legacy of the indio bárbaro.\n\n\n\n\nDate: Thursday April 12th 2018\nTime: 3:00pm\nLocation: Charles E. Young Research Library\, Main Conference Room 11360\nOrganized by the Department of Gender Studies \nCo-Sponsored by The Center for the Study of Women\, American Indian Studies Center\, American Indian Studies Interdepartmental Program\, Department of English and The Latin American Institute

SUMMARY:A Dialogue on the Challenges of Minoritized Academic Fields at this Time
DESCRIPTION:Part of The Philippines and its Elsewheres\nA series organized by the UCLA Center for Southeast Asian Studies\nFeaturing:\nNeferti Tadiar\, Professor and Chair of Women’s\, Gender & Sexuality Studies\, Barnard College \nAllan Punzalan Isaac\, Chair of American Studies and Associate Professor of American Studies and English\, Rutgers University \nRespondent: Steven Nelson\, Director\, UCLA Center for African Studies \nThe theme of the conversation orbits around the challenges minoritized fields–including Gender/Women/Feminist Studies as a field–must take up at this time. “At this time” is broadly and vaguely\, yet pointedly invoked. “At this time” could be: Trumpudo time\, Duterte\, Modi\, thinly veiled dictatorship\, resurgence of populism/neopopulism\, #metoo…. Or\, with fires\, floodings\, drought\, landslides\, and bomb cyclones in our immediate surroundings\, “At this time” could also be the end of times\, Z apocalypse\, a time toward Extinction Level Event. \n“The Philippines and its Elsewhere” explores the politics of knowledge production\, university education\, and global citizenship with Filipino Studies as its launching point. It is concerned with what interconnectivity across borders enables and demands\, as forms and politics of the global continually shifts. \nDATE: April 13\, 2018 \nTIME: 12:00 PM \nLOCATION: 10383 Bunche Hall \nRSVP: http://www.international.ucla.edu/cseas/event/13134

SUMMARY:Ula Taylor\, "The Promise of Patriarchy: Women and the Nation of Islam"
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the UC Consortium for Black Studies in California\nUla Y. Taylor discusses her recently published book\, The Promise of Patriarchy: Women and the Nation of Islam (UNC Press\, 2017). The patriarchal structure of the Nation of Islam (NOI) promised black women the prospect of finding a provider and a protector among the organization’s men\, who were fiercely committed to these masculine roles. Black women’s experience in the NOI\, however\, has largely remained on the periphery of scholarship. Here\, Ula Taylor documents their struggle to escape the devaluation of black womanhood while also clinging to the empowering promises of patriarchy. Taylor shows how\, despite being relegated to a lifestyle that did not encourage working outside of the  home\, NOI women found freedom in being able to bypass the degrading experiences connected to labor performed largely by working-class black women and in raising and educating their children in racially affirming environments. Telling the stories of women like Clara Poole (wife of Elijah Muhammad) and Burnsteen Sharrieff (secretary to W. D. Fard\, founder of the Allah Temple of Islam)\, Taylor offers a compelling narrative that explains how their decision to join a homegrown\, male-controlled Islamic movement was a complicated act of selfpreservation and self-love in Jim Crow America. \nUla Taylor is a leading feminist historian. She is Professor and H. Michael and Jeanne Williams Department Chair in the Department of African American and African Diaspora Studies at the University of California\, Berkeley. \nDATE: April 30\, 2018 \nTIME: 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM \nLOCATION: Room 6275\, Bunche Hall
