Until and Unless, Film Screening and Discussion with Dr. Soma Roy, Sintu Bagui and Nitai Giri
2018-11-30 14:00 - 15:30 (America/Los_Angeles) | 208 Kaufman Hall
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNXjLvouD2A
This event will entail the screening of Until and Unless, a short documentary film addressing the queer and trans rights movement in India.
Set in West Bengal a year before the historic decision to repeal India’s anti-sodomy law Penal Code 377, “Until and Unless”, follows the story of four individuals and the impact of systemic oppression via India’s legislative system on their lives. The film features Sintu, a transwoman community leader raised in the Sheoraphuli red-light district; Nitu, a transwoman sex worker who lives a dual identity as a man named Nitai; Lovely, a Koti person who lives a closeted life while working in an office environment, and Pratap, a trans teen still navigating her identity. Through juxtaposing their stories with interviews from lawyers and activists working to oppose these laws, the film shows the lived consequences of state and social violence on community self-representations.
The documentary was shot a year ago before the recent landmark Supreme Court decision to repeal of the colonial law, IPC 377, thereby decriminalizing homosexuality. The event will also feature a Q&A session with the Bengali sex-worker and trans activist co-creators of the film.
Speakers:
Dr. Soma Roy, Sintu Bagui and Nitai Giri from Anandam, the organization for transgender sex workers in West Bengal, India
Co-sponsored by the UCLA Center for India and South Asia

#masshysteria. Hysteria, Race, and Masculinity
2018-11-16 14:00 - 15:00 | 10383 Bunche Hall, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA
Guest lecture by Sander L. Gilman, Emory University
This guest lecture is part of the UCLA event series #masshysteria. Hysteria, Politics, and Performance Strategies organized by the UCLA Department of French and Francophone Studies.
Date: Friday, November 16, 2018
Time: 2:00 – 3:00 PM
Location: UCLA Bunche Hall 10383
Free admission. RSVP Here.
Sander L. Gilman has extensively researched and published on the intersection of Hysteria, Race, Sexuality and Gender. In this guest lecture Gilman will discuss his influential work and how the term hysteria has been useful until the present day to understand sexist and racist representations of people in protest. The term hysteria is still today very much associate with fin-de-siècle fantasies about ill, hyperventilating women. Gilman addresses in his lecture, however, that the debates about hysteria at the close of the nineteenth century are rooted as much in stereotypes about race and mental illness as they are in the pseudo-scientific claims of its origin in the ‘wandering womb’. What race and hysteria come to mean, moreover, changes its valence when European concepts are re-read in the United States. Who is hysteretic and why they have become hysteric comes to be a medical puzzle with a surprising twist in the course of the twentieth century.
The talk will be followed by an open conversation with Sander L. Gilman and moderated by Johanna Braun.

Black Feminism and the Practice of Care
2018-11-16 09:00 - 16:30 | Sequoia Room, Faculty Center, UCLA, Los Angeles, 90024
A one-day symposium on black women’s care, wellness, and healing presented by the UC Consortium for Black Studies in California. This event explores the relationship between individual practices of care and care as an investment in communities (particularly those haunted by precarity and disposability), and reimagines care (and harm and depletion) as emerging not just from late capitalist phenomena like stress and work burn-out, but also from racist institutions, historical violence, structural neglect, and familial wounds.

#masshysteria. Trans*: Hystories, Bodies and the Unbuilding of Worlds
2018-11-05 14:30 - 15:30 | 10383 Bunche Hall, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA
Guest Lecture by Jack Halberstam
Professor of English, Comparative Literature and Women, Gender, and Sexuality at Columbia University.
This guest lecture is part of the UCLA event series #masshysteria. Hysteria, Politics, and Performance Strategies organized by the UCLA Department of French and Francophone Studies.
Date: Monday, November 5, 2018
Time: 2:30 pm – 3:30 pm
Location: 10383 Bunche Hall
FREE ADMISSION
While transgender has mostly been discussed in the last decade in terms of making bodies and selves, Jack Halberstam will discuss the work of unmaking that is performed by the appellation of trans*. With this shift in focus, the wrong body, an appellation used mostly for people who have felt themselves to be out of place, out of time, comes not to claim right but to dismantle the system that metes out rightness and wrongness. This talk will offer examples of protest performances drawn from the 1970’s to argue for anarchic trans* feminisms oriented towards unbuilding and unmaking worlds, and will therefore, re-contextualize the agency of restless, transitive, hysterical bodies of the present.
The talk will be followed by an open conversation with Jack Halberstam and moderated by Johanna Braun.

#masshysteria. Hysteria, Politics, and Performance Strategies

#masshysteria. Hysteria, Politics, and Performance Strategies
A conference organized by the UCLA Department of French and Francophone Studies and the UCLA Center for European and Russian Studies
Date: November 1, 2018
Time: 9:30 AM – 5:30 PM
Location: 306 Royce Hall
RSVP: https://french.ucla.edu/event/masshysteria-hysteria-politics-and-performance-strategies-conference/

In Europe, especially in Vienna and Paris, around 1900, the hysterical girl was a well-studied object in arts and sciences; she re-appeared, a hundred years later, in countless manifestations in US mainstream horror films. In addition, key words describing women in protest as “hysterical”, “nasty”, “possessed”, or “monstrous” dominate contemporary public discourse. The female hysteric in these current narratives references strikingly established representations of the hysteric as (public) performer that extend well beyond the European studies of the nineteenth century. For example, although the medical term hysteria was struck from the fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders in 1994, it simultaneously reappeared as Histrionic Personality Disorder (Latin: histrio, actor/actress). This rebranding further underlines the point of this investigation: the female hysteric is diagnosed as performer. Given this reintroduction, and the re-appearance of the hysteric in current discourses, one may assume that the self-reflective media figure of the female hysteric will continue to gain ground in its cultural impact. The aim of this project is to show the ways in which a historical European phenomenon enjoys an active legacy in the United States one hundred years later and, in turn, resonates around the world.
Although the history and evolution of the representation of hysteria have been extensively researched, the study of how these discourses have been transferred to twenty-first-century US popular culture remains uncharted territory. This conference’s main focus is the way in which the hysteric is involved in and performs on the pressing intersection of hysteria, cultural, (horror) film and performance studies.
Furthermore, as a result of performance studies being a paradigm-driven field, this conference (and the subsequent publication) will be divided into two sections: In the beginning, we will follow the hysteric’s performance as object of inquiry, which will enable us to put the current phenomenon in its (historical) context. Thereafter, we will expand the scope and focus on performance studies as a primary analytical concept, which will enable us to uncover the potentiality of agency in the hysteric’s performance. We welcome scholarship and practice-based research in relation to hysteria and performance from all disciplines and backgrounds. As this event is designed to bring together a diverse group of scholars and artists, we value traditional paper submissions as well as encourage experimental forms of presentations, such as (new) media-, video-, performance and performance-lecture.

Beauty Bites Beast: The Missing Conversation About Ending Violence

Organized by the Department of World Arts and Culture/Dance
Featuring Director Ellen Snortland
Date: October 24, 2018
Time: 5:00 – 8:00 PM
Location: 208 Kaufman Hall
Beauty Bites Beast is a documentary film that tracks women’s empowerment self-defense training in three national locations, the US, Mexico, and Israel. The film treats violence against women as a tool of social control and examines the ways in which women have been systematically denied the right to self-defense and the skills to exercise that right. The film investigates the process through which gender is lived and embodied and how this embodiment can shift through physical practice. It is also dedicated to altering the social structures through which women and non-binary people are oppressed by advocating for options for women who face violence and harassment.

Sami Schalk, "Bodyminds Reimagined: Disability, Race, and Gender in Black Women's Speculative Fiction"
2018-10-17 14:30 - 16:00 | UCLA Powell Library, East Rotunda
Bodyminds Reimagined: Disability, Race, and Gender in Black Women’s Speculative Fiction
Book Talk with Dr. Sami Schalk, Assistant Professor of Gender and Women’s Studies, University of Wisconsin-Madison
Date: Wednesday, October 17
Time: 2:30 – 4:00 PM
Location: UCLA Powell Library, East Rotunda
This event is wheelchair accessible and will have an ASL Interpreter
In Bodyminds Reimagined Sami Schalk traces how black women’s speculative fiction complicates the understanding of bodyminds—the intertwinement of the mental and the physical—in the context of race, gender, and (dis)ability. Bridging black feminist theory with disability studies, Schalk demonstrates that this genre’s political potential lies in the authors’ creation of bodyminds that transcend reality’s limitations. She reads (dis)ability in neo-slave narratives by Octavia Butler (Kindred) and Phyllis Alesia Perry (Stigmata) not only as representing the literal injuries suffered under slavery, but also as a metaphor for the legacy of racial violence. The fantasy worlds in works by N. K. Jemisin, Shawntelle Madison, and Nalo Hopkinson—where werewolves have obsessive-compulsive-disorder and blind demons can see magic—destabilize social categories and definitions of the human, calling into question the very nature of identity. In these texts, as well as in Butler’s Parable series, able-mindedness and able-bodiedness are socially constructed and upheld through racial and gendered norms. Outlining (dis)ability’s centrality to speculative fiction, Schalk shows how these works open new social possibilities while changing conceptualizations of identity and oppression through nonrealist contexts.
This event is sponsored by UCLA African-American Studies, the UCLA Center for the Study of Women, UCLA Disability Studies, UCLA Department of English, and UCLA Department of Gender Studies.

Hannah Kosstrin, "Honest Bodies: Methods for Transnational Dance Analysis"
2018-10-09 10:00 - 12:00 | 230 Kaufman Hall
Honest Bodies: Methods for Transnational Dance Analysis
Book talk by Hannah Kosstrin, Ohio State University
Organized by the UCLA Department of World Arts and Cultures/Dance
Date: October 9, 2018
Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Location: 230 Kaufman Hall
Anna Sokolow’s choreography circulated American modernist and communist ideologies through predominantly Jewish channels of the international Left between the 1930s and 1960s. In this talk, Kosstrin highlights how Sokolow’s body as a Jewish, gendered site determined her relationship to social politics in the dance landscapes of New York, Mexico City, and Tel Aviv in which she and her dance companies participated. Kosstrin introduces her framework for transnational dance analysis, “honest bodies,” and how it exposes cultural- and dance-based kinesthetic influences that implicated Sokolow and her movement practices in global dance modernism and its choreographic discourses.
Dr. Hannah Kosstrin is Assistant Professor in the Department of Dance at The Ohio State University and affiliated with the Melton Center for Jewish Studies and Center for Slavic and East European Studies. She is author of Honest Bodies: Revolutionary Modernism in the Dances of Anna Sokolow (Oxford UP, 2017).

Area Impossible: Sexuality and Geopolitics Symposium
2018-05-25 09:30 - 17:00 | Royce 314

TIME: 9:30 AM – 5:00 PM

RSVP: http://complit.ucla.edu/event/area-impossible-sexuality-geopolitics/
Within queer studies, the geopolitical has posed a much-needed challenge to the spatial and temporal logics of the field (logics that often mire the field in the US), especially in the aftermath of the turn to transnationalism. Comparative literature has historically fashioned its domains outside US borders, but despite its range has remained somewhat tied to nationalist coagulations/formations. This symposium brings together speakers who engage comparative analytical forms towards a more disruptive and capacious queer geopolitics.

In this lecture and dialogue, Dr. Beth Ribet, who will be introduced by Professor Claudia Peña, will address the framing and representation of people in systems of prostitution in popular media, academic theory, political discourse, and in the criminal justice system. Within this discussion, Dr. Ribet will explore the contemporary politics of sex trafficking rhetoric, and will specifically introduce analysis of the recent framing, in right-wing media, of Donald Trump as an anti-trafficking hero supposedly responsible for the rescue of trafficked children and women. She will also delve into the history and ramifications of the dichotomy between the terms “sex work” and “sex trafficking”, and will identify the need for feminist, race-conscious analysis and interventions to address the relationship between whiteness, white women, and pimping in the United States. Dr. Ribet’s lecture will conclude with discussion of the hyper-vulnerability of sexually exploited youth and adults, and the prospects for advancing survivor-driven approaches to comprehending and naming the sex industries. Discussion and commentary will follow by Jyoti Nanda, Binder Clinical Teaching Fellow at UCLA School of Law.
Organized by Repair. Co-sponsored by CSW, UCLA Department of Gender Studies, and the UCLA Law Youth and Justice Clinic.

Kristine Gunnell, "Grantmaking for Systemic Change: Daughters of Charity, Seton Institute, and Alleviating Poverty in the Global South, 1985-2010"
2018-05-10 12:00 - 13:30 | Rolfe 2125
CSW Research Affiliate Brown Bag Talk
A talk by Kristine Gunnell, Research Affiliate, UCLA Center for the Study of Women
Committed to easing suffering wherever they find it, Daughters of Charity in the western United States founded Seton Institute for International Development in 1985. Through its fundraising and in-kind distribution programs, the institute offered targeted support for Catholic sisters engaged in primary health care activities in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. A case study of faith-based non-profits, the institute’s history illustrates Catholic efforts to strengthen transnational ties among sisters, while also promoting practices to spur systemic change to reduce poverty in local communities throughout the Global South.
Kristine Gunnell is a research affiliate at the UCLA Center for the Study of Women. Gunnell’s book, Daughters of Charity: Women, Religious Mission, and Hospital Care in Los Angeles, 1856-1927 (DePaul University Vincentian Studies Institute, 2013) illustrates the innovative ways that these Catholic sisters adapted to the changing demands of the emerging hospital industry while maintaining their religious mission to care for the sick and poor. While her previous work focused on the Daughters’ early history in Los Angeles, Gunnell has recently turned her attention to the sisters’ activities in the late twentieth century. Her current book project focuses on the efforts of the Daughters of Charity Foundation to promote systemic change as it seeks to combat poverty in California and elsewhere in the world.

The Crescent Moon Symposium
2018-05-04 09:00 - 17:00 | Faculty Center, California Room
Organized by the UCLA Department of English
Date: May 4, 2018
Time: 9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Location: California Room, UCLA Faculty Center
The one-day Crescent Moon Symposium (May 4, 2018) explores the lives of philosopher Hu Shih 胡适 (1891-1962), poet Xu Zhimo 徐志摩 (1897-1931), scholar/Shakespearean Liang Shiqiu 梁实秋, writer/painter Ling Shuhua 凌淑华 (1900-1990), and their literary communities. The quartet of bilingual intellectuals epitomized the vibrant East-West exchanges in the wake of the May Fourth movement. All four were members of the Crescent Moon Society 新月社, established by Xu Zhimo and Hu Shi and designed as a counterpart of the Bloomsbury Group of England. Three also happened to be prolific epistolary writers. A cosmopolitan friendly with Katherine Mansfield, Roger Fry, and Rabindranath Tagore, Xu was most famous for his Chinese poetry and love letters. Hu Shi corresponded with Bertrand Russell, Arthur Waley, and a number of American literary luminaries. Ling Shuhua corresponded with Virginia Woolf, Vanessa Bell, and Julian Bell.
Two of the four keynote speakers are descendants of Xu Zhimo and Ling Shuhua, respectively: Tony S. Hsu 徐善曾, Xu Zhimo’s only grandson and author of Chasing the Modern《志在摩登》(2017); Sasha Su-Ling Welland 魏淑凌 (U of Washington), grandniece of Ling Shuhua and author of A Thousand Miles of Dreams: The Journeys of Two Chinese Sisters (2007). The other two keynoters are Susan Chan Egan 陈毓贤, co-author of A Pragmatist and His Free Spirit: The Half-Century Romance of Hu Shi and Edith Clifford Williams (2009), and Michelle Yeh (UC Davis), author of Modern Chinese Poetry: Theory and Practice since 1917 (1991). The symposium will also feature a round table discussion of the Crescent Moon Society (a literary society named after a volume of prose poems by Rabindranath Tagore) and its Bloomsbury connection, and a literary salon with bilingual readings, songs, slides, and documentaries about Xu, Hu, and Ling. Round table participants include the four keynoters, visiting scholar Liu Cong 刘聪 (Liang Shiqiu 梁实秋 scholar), and three UCLA faculty members (Michael Berry 白睿文, King-Kok Cheung 张敬珏, Louise Hornby). Admission is free and open to the community.
Speakers:
Susan Chan Egan 陈毓贤, retired securities analyst, author of A Latterday Confucian and A Pragmatist and His Free Spirit: The Half-Century Romance of Hu Shi and Edith Clifford Williams
Louise Hornby, Assistant Professor of English at UCLA; author of Still Modernism: Photography, Literature, Film

Ula Taylor, "The Promise of Patriarchy: Women and the Nation of Islam"
2018-04-30 16:00 - 18:00 | Bunche 6275, UCLA Bunche Hall, Los Angeles, CA, 90095, United States
Organized by the UC Consortium for Black Studies in California
Ula 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.
Ula 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.

A Dialogue on the Challenges of Minoritized Academic Fields at this Time
2018-04-13 12:00 - 14:00 | 10383 Bunche Hall, UCLA, Los Angeles, CA
Part of The Philippines and its Elsewheres
A series organized by the UCLA Center for Southeast Asian Studies
Featuring:
Neferti Tadiar, Professor and Chair of Women’s, Gender & Sexuality Studies, Barnard College
Allan Punzalan Isaac, Chair of American Studies and Associate Professor of American Studies and English, Rutgers University
Respondent: Steven Nelson, Director, UCLA Center for African Studies
The 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.
“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.

Maria Josefina Saldaña-Portillo, "Indian Given: Racial Geographies Across Mexico and the United States"
2018-04-12 15:00 | Charles E Young Research Library Conference Room
Indian Given: Racial Geographies Across Mexico and the United States
A Book Talk by Maria Josefina Saldaña-Portillo
María 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
In 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.

Professor Saldaña’s presentation addresses the imbrication of NAFTA, narcos, and the legacy of the indio bárbaro.

Nicole George, "Women, Peace, and Security through a Vernacular Frame: Global/local frictions in Solomon Islands and Bougainville"
2018-04-09 15:00 - 17:00 | Rolfe 2125
Organized by the UCLA Department of Asian American Studies
Since 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.
Nicole George is a leading feminist in Oceania and the author of Situating Women: Gender Politics and Circumstance in Fiji (Australian National University Press, 2012).

Aimee Meredith Cox, Now You See Me, Now You Don’t: Black Girls, Dubious Protection, and the Public
2018-03-15 12:15 - 13:45 | 352 Haines Hall
In this structured conversation, Cox will draw from her first ethnography, Shapeshifters: Black Girls and the Choreography of Citizenship, as well as on work with young Black women in the urban and suburban U.S., to consider how their experiences in and through various publics offers a reframing of the concepts of protection, social accountability, care, legibility, and value.
Aimee Meredith Cox is jointly appointed as an Associate Professor in the departments of African American Studies and Anthropology at Yale University. Cox earned her M.A. and PhD in Cultural Anthropology from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor and B.A. with honors in Anthropology from Vassar College.
