SUMMARY:Barbara Krauthamer\, "Liberty’s Diaspora: Black Women in the Age of the American Revolution"
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Krauthamer\, Professor of History\, UMass Amherst \n“Liberty’s Diaspora: Black Women in the Age of the American Revolution” \nThis presentation examines the lives of three Black women who had been enslaved in the British North American colonies at the time of the American Revolution. The presentation reflects on their lives by considering the ways historians have navigated the archival gaps and silences about Black women’s presence. The presentation follows the women’s voluntary and forced migrations\, their Diasporic routes\, within the Americas and across the Atlantic. This focus on Black women’s routes of resistance\, liberation and deportation adds a new dimension to the more familiar and male dominated stories of slavery\, Black Loyalists and the American Revolution. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Gabriel de Avilez Rocha\, "East Atlantic Crossings in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries"
DESCRIPTION:Gabriel de Avilez Rocha\, Vasco da Gama Assistant Professor of History and Portuguese and Brazilian Studies\, Brown University \n“East Atlantic Crossings in the Fifteenth and Sixteenth Centuries” \nAtlantic historians tend to understand transoceanic crossings along an east-west axis\, with people and goods seen as traversing the space between Africa and/or Europe\, on the one hand\, and the Americas\, on the other. Yet in the early decades of the sixteenth century\, even as the broader contours of Atlantic circumnavigation were becoming more evident to members of various maritime communities\, impressions of transoceanic mobility did not yet assume the east-west axis as normative. Frequently traveled thoroughfares linking Seville to the Canaries\, São Tomé to the Azores\, and Cabo Verde to Rouen were themselves widely seen as transoceanic in scope\, even if they hewed to the eastern side of the Atlantic. The weight of tradition lay behind this conventional wisdom. Maritime routes spanning the Gulf of Guinea\, the Atlantic islands\, and Iberia had since the mid-fifteenth century established patterns of voluntary and coerced movement that continued to be integral to an expanding Atlantic circuit even after 1492. In considering the shifting yet continually vital role of the eastern Atlantic corridor\, this talk seeks to recover a largely overlooked geographic and temporal dimension of early Atlantic history. It does so by bringing together individual stories of conflict\, negotiation\, and struggle waged by a diverse range of individuals who interacted\, in different ways\, with the breadth and dynamism of the east Atlantic in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Professor Andrew Robichaud\, “Animal City: The Domestication of America”
DESCRIPTION:Professor Andrew Robichaud\, “Animal City: The Domestication of America” \n\n\nTuesday\, March 2 \n\n11am to 12:15pm \n\n\n  \n\n\n\nAndrew Robichaud\, Assistant Professor of History and Director of Undergraduate Studies\, Boston University\, will be talking about his book Animal City: The Domestication of America (Harvard University Press\, 2019) \n\n\n  \n\n\nAmerican cities were once full of animal life: cattle driven through city streets; pigs feeding in gutters and basements; cows crammed into urban feedlots; horses by the tens of thousands; dogs pulling carts and powering small machines; and wild animals peering out at human spectators from behind bars. In his recent book\, Animal City: The Domestication of America\, Andrew Robichaud reconstructs this evolving world of nineteenth-century urban animal life—from San Francisco to Boston to New York—and reveals its importance\, both then and now. \n\n\n  \n\n\nHosted by the U.S. History Series\, the Joyce Appleby Endowed Chair of America in the World\, and History 13B: History of the U.S. and its Colonial Origins: 19th Century \n\n\n  \n\n\nZoom link:  https://ucla.zoom.us/j/95986426972

SUMMARY:Sarah Johnson\, "Between the Archive and the Speculative Turn: Notes toward a Biography of Moreau de Saint-Méry." - POSTPONED
DESCRIPTION:This talk has been POSTPONED. Future date TBD. \nThis talk considers the process of writing about the life and work of the Caribbean philosophe Moreau de Saint-Méry (1750-1819).  A lawyer\, printer\, naturalist\, and translator who was at the forefront of revolutionary politics on two continents\, Moreau was also a slaveholder who wrote about ideals of liberty even as he trafficked in human beings.  An ardent defender of slavery as an institution\, he nonetheless left some of the most detailed accounts of the social practices of enslaved women and men in the eighteenth-century Americas.  This talk explores who knew what\, and how\, using as an example entries from his manuscript Repértoire des Notions Coloniales that I have refashioned into my own Encyclopédie noire.  This work reconsiders how his production of colonial knowledge appears when assessed from alternate points of view.  In a similar vein\, I discuss the process and politics that surround a parallel project produced by Moreau’s brother-in-law\, Baudry des Lozières.  My methodology embraces the value of informed speculation—through chapters that experiment with form\, visual imagery\, and narrative voice—as a way to foreground the people of African descent who undergirded Moreau’s work on multiple levels\, from those who managed his household to those whose knowledge about language\, labor\, and community became the basis of his work.  I build upon fragmentary archival evidence to surmount the disproportionate influence of planters and administrators on Caribbean historiography.

SUMMARY:Discussion of "The Notorious Mrs. Nobles: Jim Crow Gender and "Insanity" in Late Nineteenth-Century Georgia"
DESCRIPTION:A Discussion of Rebekka Michaelsen’s article-in-progress “The Notorious Mrs. Nobles: Jim Crow Gender and “Insanity” in Late Nineteenth-Century Georgia” \nThis article-in-progress recovers the case of Elizabeth Nobles\, an elderly\, poor white woman who conspired with her Black farm hand to murder her husband in rural Georgia in 1895. While other historians have demonstrated the importance of race and gender to the Jim Crow South\, this paper shows how notions of disability\, in this case “insanity\,” reinforced Jim Crow. While\, for Mrs. Nobles\, “insanity” became a reputable legal defense to save her life as well as a rhetorical apology for her transgression of Jim Crow racial and gender hierarchies\, “insanity” could simultaneously serve as way of “othering” and “defeminizing” Black women. \nDate: February 10th\, 11:30AM – 12:30PM \nThe zoom link and paper will be sent out a week in advance. Please email Rebeca Martinez at rmartnz165@g.ucla.edu to receive this information.

SUMMARY:Sasha Turner\, "Negotiating Slavery and Motherhood on the Terrain of Feelings."
DESCRIPTION:This presentation centers on the story of Abba\, an enslaved woman who was the mother of an unusually large family in eighteenth century Jamaica. Abba had been pregnant thirteen times. She had ten live births and one still birth. We come to know Abba’s story through the diaries of Thomas Thistlewood\, notorious among scholars of slavery because of his practice of diarizing how he daily tortured the enslaved. In addition to her large family\, Abba stands out in the diaries because\, despite Thistlewood’s notoriety as a sadistic enslaver\, he whips Abba only three times in almost thirty years of claiming power over her life and body. By contrast\, Thistlewood was exceptionally generous to Abba providing her with well needed material goods to support her family and permitting her to perform spiritual rituals\, outlawed a felony\, to grieve the death of her children. Reading Abba’s life against the 18th Century burgeoning culture of sensibility\, including Thistlewood’s own displays of sympathy and grief to white community members\, this discussion explores Abba’s deployment of feelings in negotiating her condition. How did Abba’s displays of feeling mirror Thistlewood’s\, and what did Abba seek to gain by consistently exhibiting feelings in Thistlewood presence? \nRSVP here

SUMMARY:Brian J. Griffith\, "Contesting the National Beverage: Wine\, Beer\, and the Battle over ‘Foreign’ Tastes and Habits in Interwar Italy"
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Brian J. Griffith\, Eugen and Jacqueline Weber Post-Doctoral Scholar in European History \nTitle: “Contesting the National Beverage: Wine\, Beer\, and the Battle over ‘Foreign’ Tastes and Habits in Interwar Italy” \nThe recording can now be found here: https://fb.watch/26uKXr920X/. \n\n\nBrief Abstract: “This paper analyzes the struggles between the Italian winemaking and brewing industries over the shaping of bourgeois Italian tastes and habits during the interwar decades. During the early 1920s\, Fascist Italy’s Industrial Wine Lobby began unveiling a wide range of public relations and collective marketing campaigns\, which were aimed at forging new ‘fashions’ or trendy collective practices among the country’s wayward middle- and upper-class consumers. The pro-wine lobby’s efforts\, however\, were obstructed by a variety of political and commercial challenges\, including a growing competition with various ‘foreign’ beverage industries\, such as coffee\, cocktails\, and\, above all\, beer. Between 1929 and 1931\, Italian brewers’ commercial lobbying organization\, the National Beer Propaganda Consortium\, launched two ambitious collective marketing campaigns of their own\, which were centered on discursively intertwining the beverage’s consumption with bourgeois sociability\, domesticity\, and ‘Italian’ identity. Unwilling to yield any commercial ground to domestic brewers\, Italy’s Industrial Wine Lobby launched a follow-up\, and wide-ranging collective marketing campaign in order to both defend ‘the world’s vineyard’ from the ‘invasion’ of ‘semi-barbarian’ preferences\, as one wine lobbyist colorfully phrased it in 1935\, and\, equally as important\, reposition Italian wine as a wholesome and fashionable ‘national beverage’ within the eyes of the peninsula’s middle- and upper-classes. By exploring these industries’ conflicts over the definition and articulation of ‘Italian’ taste and style during Fascism’s twenty years in power in Italy\, this study aims to shed further light on the myriad\, and oftentimes complex\, relationships between popular consumption\, industrial ‘fashion’ dynamics\, and national identity.” \nEvent Host: UCLA’s Center for European and Russian Studies \nDate/Time: Tuesday\, December 1st from 12:00pm to 1:00pm \n\nZoom Registration Link: https://ucla.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_4lFpMlUcRIiKcxvBkf4V3Q \nAdditional Information: See https://www.international.ucla.edu/euro/event/14684

SUMMARY:History of Science Colloquium: Taylor Moore (UCSB): “Tracing the Magical Rhinoceros Horn in Egypt: A Decolonial Materialist History”
DESCRIPTION:Fall 2020 Colloquium Schedule \nWe will meet on zoom from 4-5 pm. RSVP links will be circulated with the announcements for the individual talks. \nNov 23 \nRegistration: https://ucla.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYsdeGurzIqGtxldiJYGsO0ROwIFjd72WeD  \nTaylor Moore (UCSB): “Tracing the Magical Rhinoceros Horn in Egypt: A Decolonial Materialist History” \nCo-sponsored by the European History Colloquium \nCan emancipatory\, decolonial histories be extracted from objects collected from—or made visible to history by—the archives of colonialism?  This talk explores this question through the case study of the rhinoceros horn amulet (/qarn el-khartit/)\, an ethnographic object collected by British anthropologist Winifred Blackman during her fieldwork in Egypt in the 1920s. Markedly decentering the traditional colonial history of how the rhinoceros horn was collected and displayed as an object in European museums\,  I follow the trail of the rhinoceros horn back to the site of its collection in Egypt to reveal a strikingly different story: one of magic/medicine\, gender\, race\, and enslavement—setagainst the backdrop of Egypt’s imperial pursuits in East Africa. As such\, I demonstrate how to “read” the rhinoceros horn as an object-archive that illuminates the networks\, actors\, and economies whose bodies and labor are generally rendered invisible in Eurocentric histories of global science and medicine. \nTaylor M. Moore is a University of California Presidential Postdoctoral Fellow in the History Department at UC Santa Barbara. Her research lies at the intersections of critical race studies\,decolonial/postcolonial histories of science\, and decolonial materiality studies. Her book manuscript\, /Superstitious Women: Race\, Magic\, and Medicine in Egypt/\, uses modern Egyptian amulets as an archive to reconstruct the magical and vernacular medical life-worlds of peasant women healers\, and their critical role developing medico-anthropological expertise in Egypt from 1880-1950.

SUMMARY:Thabisile Griffin\, "Black Militias in the Era of Revolutions: Politics\, Race and Labor"
DESCRIPTION:November 19\, 2020\n12:30 – 2:00 pm \nThabisile Griffin\, PhD Candidate\, UCLA\n“Black Militias in the Era of Revolutions: Politics\, Race and Labor” \nFrom 1781 to 1790\, the British Caribbean military and colonial administrators struggled with renegotiating their racial truth systems – through a recalibration of defense. The last two decades of the century were ripe with not only the insurrections of enslaved Africans\, but also threats from competing European powers and indigenous populations. In order to survive\, there were constant re-adjustments made to garrison structure and fortifications\, that ultimately disrupted racial sensibilities to security. A contentious reinforcement would develop in the 1780s\, incentivized by previous strategies used during the American Revolution. Military officials and colonial administrators in the Caribbean were now reckoning with the possibility of employing and arming entire battalions of Black men for the British Army. The creation of this unit in the Caribbean\, the Black Corps\, was only possible through the evolving myths and villainization of St. Vincent’s Black indigenous population—the Black Caribs. Only through the narrative of the Black Caribs could the fantasy of the Black Corps be actualized. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Marissa Jenrich\, "'Like a Crow on Carrion': Black Women's Resistance to Police Power in New York City\, 1861-1880"
DESCRIPTION:Marissa’s article highlights the complex relationship between black women and New York City police in the years between the founding of the municipal force in 1845 and the officer-driven race riot that punctuated the turn of the twentieth century. It considers how shifts in police power\, departmental structure\, and jurisdiction altered the lives of women of color at a time when the city itself was undergoing tremendous change. In particular\, this article examines the diverse ways women resisted the incursions of law enforcement by engaging in strategies of denial\, registration\, and direct protest. By doing so\, this article hopes to not only shed light on the period in question\, but also to deepen our understanding of the Progressive-Era brand of policing that\, for many New Yorkers\, resulted in a ”condemnation of blackness\,” itself. \n—   Please note that there is a pre-circulated paper that will be sent out a week before this event.  Please contact Rebeca Martinez at rmartnz165@g.ucla.edu for further information on the zoom link and paper.   —
