SUMMARY:The Crime of Menticide: Antisemitism and Hate Speech in American Law
DESCRIPTION:The 2024 Sam and Helen Stahl Center for Jewish Studies\, Distinguished Lecture by James Loeffler. This event is both in-person or via Zoom. To register for the Zoom link see https://wisconsin-edu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_8tdtZrqyTdecQvrjdfKEyg#/registration \nCan law limit hate speech without violating the First Amendment? In 1977\, a group of Holocaust survivors from Skokie\, Illinois filed a class action lawsuit to stop a planned neo-Nazi march by alleging menticide — the psychological equivalent of genocide. Nazi words and symbols constituted a form of violence\, they claimed\, not constitutionally protected speech. In this lecture\, historian James Loeffler reconstructs this curious episode and discusses its larger implications for the contemporary debate over antisemitism and free speech in American law.  \nJames Loeffler is Felix Posen Professor of Jewish History at Johns Hopkins University\, and co-editor of the Association for Jewish Studies Review. His writings include two award-winning books\, Rooted Cosmopolitans: Jews and Human Rights in the Twentieth Century and The Most Musical Nation: Jews and Culture in the Late Russian Empire\, and two edited volumes\, The Law of Strangers: Jewish Lawyers and International Law in the Twentieth Century and A Jew in the Street: New Views on European Jewish History. He is currently writing a book about antisemitism and the First Amendment in postwar America\, which grew out of his Atlantic magazine article about his coverage of the trial of the White Supremacist organizers of the 2017 attack on Charlottesville. \nContact Rachel Baum at rbaum@uwm.edu or 414-229-5156 with questions or for assistance.

His writings include two award-winning books\, Rooted Cosmopolitans: Jews and Human Rights in the Twentieth Century and The Most Musical Nation: Jews and Culture in the Late Russian Empire\, and two edited volumes\, The Law of Strangers: Jewish Lawyers and International Law in the Twentieth Century and A Jew in the Street: New Views on European Jewish History.

SUMMARY:Folk-arts for peace: HemisFair '68 and the Cultural Olympics in México’s 1968 Olympiad during the Global Cold War
DESCRIPTION:A public talk on craft and globalism by Dr. Deborah Dorotinsky Alperstein\, Instituto de Investigaciones Estéticas of the Universidad Autónoma de México (UNAM). \nThis lecture will center on folk art (handcraft / arte-popular) as a cultural agent during the Global Cold War in 1968. It will highlight the place of handcraft in the cultural diplomacy between Mexico and the United States during the sixties and bring to the fore two international exhibitions. \nDr. Dorotinsky currently serves as the project leader for Popular Arts\, an effort to create a network of scholars both in Latin American and elsewhere whose work deals with contemporary Latin American art and specifically “popular” art objects\, i.e. crafts and diseño artisanal. The purpose of the project is to critique and revise accepted categories (as well as definitions\, terms\, etc.) of these objects. Dr. Dorotinsky and her colleagues argue that these categories are politically contingent\, often exploitative\, and troublingly institutionalized.

SUMMARY:Milwaukee: A City Built on Water with Milwaukee Historian John Gurda
DESCRIPTION:John Gurda is a Milwaukee-born writer and historian who has been studying his hometown since 1972. He is the author of twenty-two books\, including histories of Milwaukee-area neighborhoods\, industries\, and places of worship. Gurda’s most ambitious efforts are The Making of Milwaukee\, the first full-length history of the community published since 1948; and Milwaukee: City of Neighborhoods\, a geographic companion that has quickly become the standard work on grassroots Milwaukee. Together the books total more than 900 pages and feature 2\,000 illustrations. The Making of Milwaukee was the basis for an Emmy Award-winning documentary series that premiered on Milwaukee Public Television in 2006. \nIn addition to his work as an author\, Gurda is a lecturer\, tour guide\, and local history columnist for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. His undergraduate degree is a BA in English from Boston College\, and he holds an MA in Cultural Geography and an honorary Ph.D. from the UWM. The common thread in all of Gurda’s work is an understanding of history as “why things are the way they are.” \nProfessor Charlie Paradis\, Department of Geosciences\, emcees and hosts.
