SUMMARY:Dean's Distinguished Lecture in the Humanities: Black City-Builders: Reinforcing the Case for Reparatory Justice in America
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr. Joe Trotter Jr.\nFriday\, April 17\, 2026\n4:30 – 6:00 p.m.\, Reception to Follow\nAlumni Fireside Lounge – UWM Student Union\n2200 East Kenwood Blvd.\nDr. Joe William Trotter\, Jr. is the Giant Eagle University Professor of History and Social Justice and past History Department Chair at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania. He is also a member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences; the director and founder of Carnegie Mellon’s Center for Africanamerican Urban Studies and the Economy (CAUSE) and past president of both the Urban History Association and the Labor and Working Class History Association. \nThis lecture is based upon Dr. Trotter’s recent book\, Building the Black City: The Transformation of American Life (California\, 2024).  While contemporary urban and labor studies acknowledge the impact of Black labor on the built environment of American cities\, both  scholars and the larger public have found it more difficult to conceptualize predominantly poor and working class Black urbanites as “City-Builders.”  Hence\, this talk will underscore how African Americans double-taxed their own labor and built their own city within the city to serve their own needs.  Whereas the case for reparations is usually based on land dispossession\, unpaid and underpaid labor\, this lecture will move the notion of a “Black City” from the periphery to the center of the case for reparatory justice for descendants of African people “enslaved” and later “Jim Crowed” in the United States of America.  As such\, the case for reparations\, he concludes\, must also include a focus on the creativity of Black people as “City-Builders” in their own interests as well as exploited workers. \nThe Dean’s Distinguished Lecture in the Humanities is made possible by generous funding from the Vilas Trust.

SUMMARY:From 20th-Century ‘Undesirables’ to the 2024 Paris Olympics: Women Defying French Colonial Policing
DESCRIPTION:A presentation by Dr. Jennifer Boittin\, Professor of Global History\, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. \nTeams option also available. Email wgs@uwm.edu for the link or for more information. \nJennifer Boittin is the Frank Porter Graham Distinguished Professor of Global History at UNC. She received her PhD in History from Yale University and was previously a professor at Penn State University. Her research and teaching look at how colonial spaces in West Africa\, Southeast Asia\, North Africa\, and the French Caribbean were shaped by intersections between class\, politics\, and urban culture around the world wars and decolonization. Completed in part thanks to a Paris Institute for Advanced Studies fellowship\, her second book is entitled Undesirable: Passionate Mobility and Women’s Defiance of French Colonial Policing\, 1919-1952 (2022\, University of Chicago Press). Undesirable tells the virtually unknown history of hundreds of women in Southeast Asia (French Indochina) and West Africa (AOF) tracked by authorities because they were traveling alone and claiming Frenchness. Drawn from Cambodian\, French\, and Senegalese archives\, Undesirable’s focus on how ordinary people react to being policed gives historical depth to pressing contemporary issues of migration and violence in France today and of similar reckonings on a global scale.

SUMMARY:Missing Each Other: Queer Tales of Love\, Longing\, and Loss
DESCRIPTION:Visiting Scholar in LGBTQ+ Studies Dr. Tony Adams (he/they)\, is professor of Communication at Bradley University. He uses ethnography and autoethnography to study the everyday interactions that make up our lives\, enact our identities\, and create LGBTQ+ experiences.  \nDr. Adams’ presentation: \nThere are many popular sayings about the consequentiality of everyday relational affairs. There’s the quote attributed to Margaret Mead: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful\, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed\, it’s the only thing that ever has.” And the aphorism credited to Aesop: “No act of kindness\, no matter how small\, is ever wasted.” There are those inspirational memes: “Some stranger somewhere remembers you because you were kind to them\,” “Someone heard a song that reminded them of you\,” and “You knew the other for only a short time but they changed your life for the better.” And there’s the “butterfly effect\,” the concept that suggests even the slightest act can motivate infinite iterative and compounding acts.  \nIn this lecture\, Dr. Tony Adams will demonstrate the consequentiality of our everyday relational affairs. He will focus specifically on mundane queer encounters—moments of meeting that reference same-gender attraction and LGBQ+ identities and/or challenge heteronormative expectations about when\, where\, how\, and with whom intimacy can occur. Throughout\, he will show how we can\, knowingly and unknowingly\, change someone with our words and deeds. He pays homage to social interactions that\, at the time they occurred\, may have felt trivial and unremarkable yet now\, upon reflection\, feel formative and momentous. In so doing\, he illustrates the potential iterative and compounding impact of what we say and don’t say\, do and don’t do. \nEvent includes Q&A and a reception (with tea and snacks!).

SUMMARY:(Re)imagining Black Futures in the age of Wakanda
DESCRIPTION:Join Africology NOW in discussing the impact of Marvel’s Black Panther franchise on representations of Black history\, culture\, and identity in the media. Our discussion will reflect on themes of Black transnationalism\, migration\, the effects of colonialism\, Black and African feminisms\, and the radical nature of imagining Black futures through Afrofuturism. \nAlong with scenes from the films\, we will present and discuss other examples of film\, music\, television\, and literature that explore a central question: How does media (re)define and (re)imagine Black identity\, memory\, and tradition through storytelling? \nLight refreshments will be provided.  \nRSVP at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeO_SQM0dEceqsV11g3yagNpCB0j3BGvl0HYr-dVCxkJcrrlQ/viewform
