SUMMARY:Culture\, Power\, and Social Change - Living and Dying in Transit: Violence\, Space and Gender in the North African-Mediterranean Frontier
DESCRIPTION:Living and Dying in Transit: Violence\, Space and Gender in the North African-Mediterranean Frontier \nTunisia is caught between a rock and a hard place. Located along the central Mediterranean migration route connecting Sub-Saharan Africa to Europe. Tunisia has recently become the main country of departure towards Italy\, placing it at the centre of EU migration policy. The presentation will explore Tunisian and European border policies as well as the strategies migrants – women and men – employ to stay safe and move on in their lives. \n  \nAhlam Chemlali is a PhD fellow at the Danish Institute for International Studies (DIIS)\, Department of Migration and Global Order and Aalborg University\, Department of Politics and Society in Copenhagen\, Denmark. Her research explores the effects of European border policies in North Africa\, with particular emphasis on the local and gendered effects in the Tunisian-Libyan borderlands. Prior to her PhD Chemlali worked almost a decade in a human rights organisation on issues related to migration\, violence and torture. Chemlali has published in Geopolitics\, Trends in Organized Crime\, Forced Migration Review and Revue Tunisienne de Science Politique.\n \nPlease follow this link for the full poster and event page: Chemlali-poster May 25 CPSC

SUMMARY:Professor Smith: "Nature Always Wins"
DESCRIPTION:Nature is active in conquering us not only through the occasional earthquake or flood\, but in the subtleties of vegetation that turn every settlement into an ongoing archaeological site. What do we see when we look down? Grass growing in the cracks of freeway pavements\, and plants taking root in the little crevices of buildings and alleys. \nProfessor Monica L. Smith\, an archaeologist and member of the Institute of the Environment and Sustainability at UCLA\, takes us on a photographic journey to the world of vibrant and resilient vegetation underfoot. She shows us how an artist’s eye resides within all of us\, enabling us to see what we usually filter out of our perception as we traverse the streets of Los Angeles. \nThe exhibit coincides with the release of her edited volume\, The Power of Nature\, published by the University Press of Colorado and featuring a number of UCLA authors. \nNote: Exhibition runs from May 22-26\, 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.

We look forward to seeing you all! \nHT94 is a multi-media exhibition that records the journeys and testimonies of undocumented migrants and their families who attempt to cross the U.S.–Mexico border. The exhibition includes an array of multi-sensorial components that speak directly to the migrant experience\, such as photographic narratives of border crossers\, found objects left behind by migrants in the desert\, videos\, an interactive story-recording studio where the public may share their personal immigration stories\, and a 16-foot long participatory wall map of the Arizona/Mexico border containing hand-written toe tags with QR codes that connect to online content regarding migrant issues along America’s southern border representing people who have died while crossing the border between the mid-1990s and 2022.
