SUMMARY:Research Fellowship Applications Due
DESCRIPTION:Application Deadline:   Friday\, December 6\, 2024 \n\n\n\n\n\nBackground\n\n\n\nA UW System Center of Excellence\, UWM’s Center for 21st Century Studies (C21) builds a community of scholars to address the pressing issues of our time. Each year\, C21 offers fellowships to UWM faculty and academic staff\, as well as UW System faculty\, that provide the time\, space\, and collegial support to generate new knowledge and ideas. C21 centers the humanities in its belief that innovation comes from diversity of opinions\, disciplines\, and experiences. \n\n\n\nTheme\n\n\n\nIn dialogue with our advisory council and community partners\, C21 has identified SLOW as the theme that will inform our offerings for three years (2024-2027). Slow movements—across food\, cities\, science\, scholarship and beyond — call attention to embodied processes of building and maintaining collective life that resist the fast-paced efficiency models\, rapid rewards\, and short attention spans that increasingly dominate human responses to 21st century social\, political\, and ecological challenges. The theme is intentionally broad to capture a wide range of scholarship and practice while encouraging innovative methodologies.   \n\n\n\nC21’s 2025-2026 programming focuses on SLOW CARE. Across health\, climate\, labor\, technology and more\, we ask how pacing affects the institutions\, policies\, cultural infrastructures\, and social and political processes that support or disassemble an ethic of care. We welcome multiple interpretations of this open topic\, including explorations of time\, pace\, and speed as they relate to pressing issues of our time and/or work inside and outside the university. Methodological\, pedagogical\, and research topical interests are all welcome in relation to this theme.  \n\n\n\nResearch Projects\n\n\n\nApplicants should propose a research project related to this thematic area.  Projects can be individual or collaborative.  Examples of projects include: \n\n\n\n\nResearching / preparing syllabi for innovative\, interdisciplinary team-teaching initiatives or credit-bearing programs such as certificates\, minors\, degrees. \n\n\n\n\n\nResearching / preparing material for public presentation in a wide variety of forms including (but not limited to) monographs\, essays\, podcasts\, performances; art installation/exhibits\, community programs; digital interfaces; archives or artifacts.    \n\n\n\n\n\nResearching for / development of large-scale collaborative projects (grant proposals\, building networks etc.).

SUMMARY:UW System Faculty Lecture Series: Derek Handley 
DESCRIPTION:This virtual event is free and open to the public. Registration is required. Click here to register. \n\n\n\nThe UW System Faculty Lecture Series and The Center for 21st Century Studies at UWM proudly present Derek Handley: Struggle for the City: Rhetorics of Citizenship and Resistance in the Black Freedom Movement.  \n\n\n\nThe urban renewal policies of the 1950s and 1960s destroyed the economic centers of many Black neighborhoods in the United States. Struggle for the City recovers the agency and solidarity of African American residents confronting this diagnosis of “blight.”  This presentation discusses how African American residents in the Hill District of Pittsburgh\, the Bronzeville neighborhood of Milwaukee\, and the Rondo neighborhood of St. Paul enacted Black Rhetorical Citizenship to fight for their communities. By centering the residents in their own narratives of displacement\, this presentation demonstrates how local organizers\, leaders\, and residents used rhetorics of placemaking\, community organizing\, and critical memory to resist the bulldozing visions of urban renewal.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDerek G. Handley is an assistant professor in the English Department\, affiliated faculty in African and African Diaspora Studies department\, and affiliated faculty in the Urban Studies Program at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.  He is co-director of the Mapping Racism and Resistance in Milwaukee County (MRR-MKE) project\, which comprehensively maps racial covenants and uncovers Black resistance to such discrimination.  \n\n\n\nThe UW System Lecture Series is co-hosted by C21 and UW-Madison’s Center for the Humanities and highlights faculty research across the Universities of Wisconsin.
