Author Reading | Torture, Humiliate, Kill: Inside the Bosnian Serb Camp System (online)
Half a century after the Holocaust, on European soil, Bosnian Serbs orchestrated a system of concentration camps where they subjected their Bosniak Muslim and Bosnian Croat neighbors to torture, abuse, and killing. Foreign journalists exposed the horrors of the camps in the summer of 1992, sparking worldwide outrage. This exposure, however, did not stop the mass atrocities. Hikmet Karčić shows that the use of camps and detention facilities has been a ubiquitous practice in countless wars and genocides in order to achieve the wartime objectives of perpetrators. Although camps have been used for different strategic purposes, their essential functions are always the same: to inflict torture and lasting trauma on the victims. Torture, Humiliate, Kill develops the author Hikmet Karčić's collective traumatization theory, which contends that the concentration camps set up by the Bosnian Serb authorities had the primary purpose of inflicting collective trauma on the non-Serb population of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Lecture | Sovereignty as Enlightenment Allegory (online)
Alongside the largely unfulfilled obligations of diplomatic treaties and military alliances, the first century of modern Russian-Georgian relations also produced a striking body of literary texts which can be seen to explore deeper shifts in the symbolic valence of sovereignty. First theorized in the early modern era, sovereignty has conventionally been understood to designate the supreme authority residing in the state, as well as the political and legal independence of geographically separate states. The principle of sovereignty has been key to a prolonged and arguably incomplete transition away from a model of political authority regarded as divinely ordained and embodied in the ruling monarch towards a secular model of statehood. Speaker Harsha Ram is Associate Professor in the Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures and the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of California, Berkeley.

Discussion | Entre Nous: Shakespeare Speaks to the Present (online)
From the collected works on Abraham Lincoln's White House desk, to the Public Theater's incendiary 2018 production of Julius Caesar, Shakespeare has long been adopted as the voice of the cultural moment. Two figures qualified to speak on this phenomenon are Stephen Greenblatt and James Shapiro, celebrated Shakespeare scholars and authors of multiple books on the Bard. In his 2020 book Shakespeare in a Divided America, Shapiro considers the many uses and abuses of Shakespeare in American history; from issues of race and democracy, to liberty and marriage, Shapiro highlights Shakespeare's presence at the heart of the American cultural imagination. In his 2019 book Tyrant: Shakespeare on Politics, Greenblatt demonstrates the similarities between Shakespearean tyranny and power in the current age: unstable leaders, crumbling faith in institutions, and a public more interested in the spectacle of politics than participation.

Lecture | “I’m the one with a sculpture at the bottom of the Ocmulgee River”: The Work of Artist Beverly Buchanan (online)
In conceiving of her abandoned earthworks, Beverly Buchanan (1940-2015) often chose liminal sites where the land meets the water, and where the sculpture would eventually be "taken in," as she put it. In this talk, Amelia Groom–author of Beverly Buchanan: Marsh Ruins–will reflect on a number of the artist’s water-bound pieces, including the undocumented stone sculpture that she sank into the muddy waters of Georgia’s Ocmulgee River, and the short-lived 6-piece Abandoned Sculpture (1980), which Buchanan left to the waves on the beach behind Kronborg Castle in Denmark.

Discussion | Forces of Art: Protocols of Evaluation (online)
How do we sustain politically engaged, community-focused art practices in times of ecological crises, the pandemic, a seemingly global playing field, and the persistence of colonial legacies? Foundations and NGOs play an important role in this ecosystem through their financial support but also through metrics of success which unleash such support. Look for more holistic approaches to program evaluation that respond to urgent demands for more equitable organizations and offer protocols and tools to support them.

Lecture | Return to the Postcolony: Spectrality in the 21st Century (online)
Art historian TJ Demos will reflect on his groundbreaking study, Return to the Postcolony: Specters of Colonialism in Contemporary Art, released nearly a decade ago in 2013. Demos' book closely examines a range of post-documentary photographic and film-based practices that materialize the lingering absences of European colonial specters in postcolonial Africa. Noting how not just Africa, but the global order, continues to be haunted by these colonial specters, Demos will discuss the ongoing relevance of spectrality in contemporary art during these times of intensified global precarity.

Staged Reading | Kicking Down the Quilt: The Spiritual Condition of Contemporary Society
Conceived as a dialogue for theater, the play deals with the spiritual condition of the contemporary, or hyper-contemporary --a society of today. The protagonists of this story have no specific gender, race, names, or age. They are democratically elected representatives of intimacy. The play's text talks without discrimination about our darkest affairs and most glorious battles, of which we ourselves cannot speak. Written by Rafal Dziemidok.

Nominated for the Icelandic Literary Prize, Quake is a haunting novel-in-translation about Saga, a woman who comes to after an epileptic seizure on a sidewalk along busy Miklabraut Street.

Author Reading | Junk Science and the American Criminal Justice System: Untold Stories and Wrongful Executions (online)
The Innocence Project's Chris Fabricant launches of his new book, a meticulously researched insider's perspective of the American criminal justice system. Forensic scientists have long been mythologized in American popular culture as infallible crime solvers, while juries put their faith in "expert witnesses" and innocent people have been executed as a result. Innocent people are still on death row today, condemned by junk science. Fabricant weaves together previously untold stories of wrongful executions, corrupt prosecutors, and quackery masquerading as science, taking readers on an "eye-opening, endlessly engaging, and equally infuriating" journey into the heart of a broken, racist American criminal justice system and the role junk science plays in maintaining the status quo" (Booklist).
