SUMMARY:Tales of Clamor
DESCRIPTION:TALES OF CLAMOR is a 7-person play centering around two artists debating cultural versus institutionalized silence. Utilizing ensemble storytelling\, circus arts and archival footage from the 1981 Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians hearings— when the Japanese American community broke their silence for the first time in nearly 40 years after WWII mass incarceration of Japanese Americans— this piece explores what it means to show up for each other\, speak out\, and generate the collective clamor necessary for social change.

SUMMARY:Global Borderlands
DESCRIPTION:Global Borderlands \nSpeaker: Victoria Reyes\, Assistant Professor of Sociology at UC Riverside. \nWednesday\, February 13\, 2019\n4:00 PM – 5:30 PM\n10383 Bunche Hall \nhttps://international.ucla.edu/cseas/event/13621 \nDescription: The U.S. military continues to be an overt presence in the Philippines\, and a reminder of the country’s colonial past. Using Subic Bay (a former U.S. military base\, now a Freeport Zone) as a case study\, Victoria Reyes argues that its defining feature is its ability to elicit multiple meanings. For some\, it is a symbol of imperialism and inequality\, while for others\, it projects utopian visions of wealth and status. \nDrawing on archival and ethnographic data\, Reyes describes the everyday experiences of people living and working in Subic Bay\, and makes a case for critically examining similar spaces across the world. These foreign-controlled\, semi-autonomous zones of international exchange are what she calls global borderlands. While they can take many forms\, ranging from overseas military bases to tourist resorts\, they all have key features in common. This new unit of globalization provides a window into broader economic and political relations\, the consequences of legal ambiguity\, and the continuously reimagined identities of the people living there. Rejecting colonialism as merely a historical backdrop\, Reyes demonstrates how it is omnipresent in our modern world.

SUMMARY:Dean Saranillio Book Talk
DESCRIPTION:Bio: Dean Itsuji Saranillio is an assistant professor in the Department of Social and Cultural Analysis at New York University.  His teaching and research interests are in settler colonialism\, alternative futures from the settler state\, Asian American and Pacific Island histories\, and Native Pacific cultural studies. He has published in numerous journals and anthologies and his first book\, Unsustainable Empire: Alternative Histories of Hawai‘i Statehood (Duke University Press\, 2008)\, thinks through the possibilities that might emerge when non-Native peoples work in place-based affinity with Native movements. \n  \nTalk description: Dean Saranillio shows that Hawai’i’s admission as a U.S. state was neither the expansion of U.S. democracy nor a strong nation swallowing a weak and feeble island nation\, but the result of a U.S. nation whose economy was unsustainable without enacting a more aggressive policy of imperialism. This talk provides a more complicated understanding of Hawai‘i’s admission as the fiftieth state and why Native Hawaiian place-based alternatives to U.S. empire are urgently needed. \n  \nWe will also be hosting a graduate student talk at the Asian American Studies Center conference room from 3-5 pm.
