SUMMARY:Book Event: Queer Throughlines: Spaces of Queer Activism in South Korea and the Korean Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:Prof. Ju Hui Judy Han (UCLA) joined by Prof. Giancarlo Cornejo Salinas (UCLA)\, Prof. Grace Kyung-won Hong (UCLA)\, Laura Hyun Yi Kang (UC Irvine)\, and Dr. Yeong Ran Kim\nTuesday\, April 21\, 2026\n2:00 PM – 4:00 PM\nBunche Hall\, Room 10383 \n\nAbout the Book   \nQueer Throughlines draws on years of direct participation\, interviews\, and ethnography to examine transnational Korean LGBTQ+ activism since the 1990s. Han maps the sites and routes of leftist and queer political movements\, highlighting challenges posed by Christian conservatives in both South Korea and the United States. The book uses the concept of “throughlines” to weave together a web of movement stories across time and space: a coalition of Los Angeles-based LGBTQ+ activists and allies fighting an anti-gay petition campaign led by Korean immigrant churches; queer activists involved in anti-war protests in Seoul; progressive clergy embracing inclusivity and risking heresy charges and excommunication; and queer and trans activists refusing to be sidelined form visions of political change underway. These moments do not always line up in a straightforward narrative of victory of progress\, yet they create powerful lines of solidarity\, community\, and kinship. \nModerated by Grace Kyung-won Hong (Asian American Studies and Gender Studies at UCLA\, it will begin with brief comments by Ju Hui Judy Han (Gender Studies at UCLA) and then shift to an open ended dialogue among panelists\, with Giancarlo Cornejo Salinas (Gender Studies at UCLA)\, Laura Hyun Yi Kang (Gender & Sexuality Studies at UC Irvine)\, and Yeong Ran Kim. \nDiscussion \nModerated by Prof. Grace Kyung-won Hong\, Dept. of Asian American Studies\, UCLA

SUMMARY:Our Universities on the Brink: The Institution and the Commons
DESCRIPTION:CULTURE\, POWER\, SOCIAL CHANGE PRESENTS… \nCharlie Hale\, Dean of Social Sciences\, \nUC Santa Barbara \nOur Universities on the Brink: The Institution and the Commons \nThursday 4.23.26 \nHaines Hall 352 \n12:15 PM \nThis paper builds from the premise that\, to confront the multiple forces of disruption\, all who inhabit universities are called upon to engage critical university studies. This is especially crucial for those who belong to the imagined “we” that Dean Hale invokes at the outset\, since “our” efforts to advance and defend an alternative social purpose of the public university are most vulnerable to these forces. His analysis explores the general contours and contradictions of this work\, and more specifically\, what happens when the efforts are supported by the dean’s office. \nBoth the analysis\, and his ideas for possible ways forward\, rest on a distinction between the institution and the commons. This notion of the commons offers a means to fortify our defenses and inspire a collective sense of purpose as we engage in a necessary\, and hopefully short-lived\, strategic retreat. \nCharlie Hale is the author of Resistance and Contradiction: Miskitu Indians and the Nicaraguan State\, 1894-1987 (1994); and “Más que un indio…” Racial Ambivalence and Neoliberal Multiculturalism in Guatemala (2006); editor of Engaging Contradictions: Theory\, Politics and Methods of Activist Scholarship (2008); co-editor (with Lynn Stephen) of Otros Saberes: Collaborative Research with Black and Indigenous Peoples in Latin America (2014); author of articles on activist scholarship\, identity politics\, racism\, land rights and territorial autonomy\, resistance to neoliberalism among Indigenous and Afro-descendant peoples of Latin America. Director of LLILAS Benson Latin American Studies and Collections (UT Austin\, 2009-16) and President of the Latin American Studies Association (2006-7).

SUMMARY:Dean’s Lecture in Humanistic Inquiry: Kate Manne on Sensitivity and Survival
DESCRIPTION:The Inaugural Dean’s Lecture in Humanistic Inquiry\nThursday\, April 30\n4 p.m. – 6 p.m.\nRoyce Hall Room 314 \nFree admission. Reception with light refreshments to follow lecture. Advance registration strongly recommended. \nPresented by the UCLA College Division of Humanities\nThe Dean’s Lecture in Humanistic Inquiry is a biennial lecture dedicated to exploring cross-cutting topics and ideas in humanistic research and examining how humanistic inquiry connects to the most pressing questions of the day. \nAbout our inaugural speaker\nKate Manne is a professor at the Sage School of Philosophy at Cornell University. She specializes in moral\, social and feminist philosophy\, and has written three books: DOWN GIRL: The Logic of Misogyny (Oxford University Press\, 2018)\, ENTITLED: How Male Privilege Hurts Women (Crown\, 2020) and UNSHRINKING: How to Face Fatphobia (Crown\, 2024). In addition to her academic work\, she regularly writes opinion pieces and essays for a wider audience\, including in outlets such as The New York Times\, The Cut\, The Washington Post\, The Atlantic\, The Nation and Time. She writes a Substack newsletter\, More to Hate\, exploring misogyny\, fatphobia and their intersection. \nAbout Professor Manne’s lecture\nSensitivity and Survival\nAccusations of oversensitivity are nowadays very common. Are they typically warranted? Is there in fact a scourge of snowflakes? \nIn this lecture\, Kate Manne will distinguish three things that are commonly meant by “oversensitivity”: over-identification of instances\, over-extension of the relevant concepts and over-reactions to the relevant harms or forms of injustice\, such as sexism\, misogyny and racism. Her talk will draw on two rich humanistic traditions: feminist epistemology and non-ideal theory. \nWhile acknowledging that oversensitivity of all three kinds can and does occur\, Manne will highlight and explore the comparatively under-emphasized converse dangers: the under-identification of instances\, the under-extension of concepts\, and under-reactions or the undermining of warranted reactions\, respectively. In view of this\, she concludes that what is called oversensitivity is often simply sensitivity: a normatively valuable and justified way of reacting to harms and injustices that often go under the radar in society as we know it. \nPlease visit this page to register. \nEvent cosponsors\nThank you to our cosponsors: UCLA Department of Philosophy\, UCLA Department of Gender Studies\, UCLA Center for the Study of Women | Streisand Center\, and UCLA Program in Experimental Critical Theory

SUMMARY:"Legacy": Free Screening by UCLA Film & Television Archive
DESCRIPTION:When: Sunday\, June 28th at 7:00pm \nWhere: Billy Wilder Theater at the Hammer Museum \nJoin UCLA Film & Television Archive for a free screening of “Legacy”! \nDirected by Karen Arthur\, a first-time filmmaker\, and independently produced\, “Legacy” confounds 1970s Hollywood’s expectations with the introduction of a new kind of cinematic woman. Bissie (played by Joan Hotchkis) is a woman unraveling under the pressures of a vapid and materialistic society. She stuns audiences with her honesty that is confrontational\, yet heartfelt\, and her vulnerability.
