Lecture | Collective Bargaining Rights, Policing, and Civilian Deaths (online)


The introduction of collective bargaining rights substantially increased the number of civilians killed by the police, particularly among nonwhite civilians, but at the same time had limited effects on officer safety and crime. Unionization is responsible for almost one-fifth of all civilian deaths by legal intervention during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. Do collective bargaining rights for law enforcement result in more civilian deaths at the hands of the police? Using an event-study design, we examine whether states’ introduction of duty to bargain requirements with police unions led to meaningful changes in civilians killed by law enforcement. We find that the introduction of collective bargaining rights substantially increases the number of civilians killed by the police, particularly among nonwhite civilians, while having limited effects on officer safety and crime. Our results indicate that the adoption of bargaining rights for law enforcement can explain 19 percent of all non-white civilian deaths by legal intervention between 1959 and 1988. Given our findings, the idea that police unions exacerbate violence is empirically grounded. With Rob Gillezeau.

Lecture | Legality and Authoritarian Legality in China


Some people characterize law in China as a “socialist legality” or “authoritarian legality." This is an eccentric account of legality, an attenuated account of authoritarianism, or both. This article highlights two enduring ideas in this new legality, the claim that law is not supreme and the claim that it is not distinctive. A satisfying account of the rule of law ought to begin with the antithesis of these two claims. However, that position presents challenges for certain theories of legality in the liberal canon, especially theories that conceive of the rule of law in modal term. In light of that challenge, the article questions the claim that liberal legality is a coherent doctrine that stands apart from the wider virtues of the legal order. It explains how legality came to be understood as something that can be reconciled with authoritarianism, highlights the consequences of this misstep, and suggests a way forward. Speaker Dr. Ewan Smith is an Associate Professor of Public Law at University College London and a Hauser Global Fellow at New York University Law School.

Lecture | Writing In-Between: Nikolai Gogol and the Russophone Literature of the Empire (in-person and online)


Russian culture in the 18th-19th centuries was created by intellectuals of various ethnic and cultural backgrounds, rendering the notions of monolithic Russian language highly problematic. The hybridization of the Russian language with the vernacular idioms of Ukrainian, Yiddish, and German in Nikolai Gogol’s texts resulted from his negotiation with imperial values and signaled a subtle cultural resistance to the imperial homogenization. This talk will test the limits of the postcolonial theory of mimicry and hybridity in their application to the Russian imperial literature. This talk will argue that Mikhail Bakhtin’s original idea of “in-betweenness of languages” applied by him to the hybrid discourse of Vasilii Narezhnyi and Nikolai Gogol can better explain the productive tension between the major use of the Russian language and the hybrid idiom resulted in the works of the Russophone writers of the empire. The postcolonial theory of hybridity has become a useful tool for an analytic intervention in European and American academia, however, it has not yet been fully applied in Slavic studies, and this talk intends to fill in this lacuna. Speaker Yuliya Ilchuk is an Assistant Professor of Slavic Literature and Culture at Stanford University.

Lecture | The Souls of White Jokes: How Racist Humor Fuels White Supremacy (in-person and online)


Having a "good" sense of humor generally means being able to take a joke without getting offended. Laughter is often seen as a way to ease tension in an overly politicized social world. But do the stakes change when the jokes are racist? In The Souls of White Jokes, Raúl Pérez confronts this unsettling question, arguing that doing so is crucial to understanding the persistence of racism and white supremacy in American society. Drawing from W.E.B. Du Bois's prescient essay “The Souls of White Folk” (1920), Pérez synthesizes scholarship on race, humor, and emotions to uncover how humor can function as a tool for producing racial alienation, dehumanization, and even violence. Pérez tracks this use of humor from blackface minstrelsy to contemporary contexts, including police culture, politics, and far-right extremists. Rather than being harmless fun, a thing of the past, or “just a joke,” Pérez illustrates how the current widespread use of racist humor plays a central role in reinforcing and mobilizing racist ideology, solidarity, and inequality today. Speaker Raúl Pérez is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of La Verne, and previously an Assistant Professor of Sociology and Criminology at the University of Denver.

Opening Reception | 2 Art Shows: Connections / Raw Beauty


Connections An exhibition that embodies a broad understanding of what artistic connections can be: connections between materials, between people, between ourselves and nature. This powerful exhibition also gives audiences the ability to witness the diversity of styles and techniques, in both two and three dimensional work, of The Textile Study Group of New York artists.  Linda Kunik: Raw Besuty Kunik manipulates photography both perceptually and physically. The first set of photographs in the exhibition demonstrate Kunik’s keen interest in examining the interplay between the readily visible representational world, and an abstracted state more aligned with memory and illusion. Here, Kunik’s process produces a synthetic dimensionality where none exists.

Book Discussion | I Have Some Questions for You by Rebecca Makkai (In Person AND Online)


Join WNYC's Alison Stewart and Rebecca Makkai for a live conversation about her newest novel, I Have Some Questions for You. In the book, a successful film professor and podcaster, Bodie Kane is content to forget her past—the family tragedy that marred her adolescence, her four largely miserable years at a New Hampshire boarding school, and the murder of her former roommate, Thalia Keith, in the spring of their senior year. Though the circumstances surrounding Thalia’s death and the conviction of the school’s athletic trainer, Omar Evans, are hotly debated online, Bodie prefers—needs—to let sleeping dogs lie. But when the Granby School invites her back to teach a course, Bodie is inexorably drawn to the case and its increasingly apparent flaws. In their rush to convict Omar, did the school and the police overlook other suspects? Is the real killer still out there? As she falls down the very rabbit hole she was so determined to avoid, Bodie begins to wonder if she wasn’t as much of an outsider at Granby as she’d thought—if, perhaps, back in 1995, she knew something that might have held the key to solving the case. About the Author Rebecca Makkai is the Chicago-based author of the novels The Great Believers, The Hundred-Year House, and The Borrower, as well as the short story collection Music for Wartime. The Great Believers was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award, and received the ALA Carnegie Medal and the LA Times Book Prize, among other honors.

A torrid love affair with brilliant, irascible financier Reginald Lewis follows, as does regal living in Manhattan and Paris, and gut-wrenching loss, all before Loida shockingly commandeers a multibillion-dollar, multinational conglomerate and leads it with aplomb.

Discussion | Racism by Design


Now more than ever, technology is rapidly and seamlessly integrated into our lives. Racism in technology has been explored by many scholars throughout the decades, adapting as new technologies emerge. Technology has allowed white supremacist settler colonial societies to contend with racism, in ways it has not before: lived environments, politics, and social interactions, both on and offline. Today we are accustomed to using tap to pay credit cards, 2-day Amazon shipping, and booking online video appointments. However, our awareness of the coded algorithms that help inform decisions about and within our cities is much less known. Social media serves as a powerful tool for activist resistance, voicing pressing issues, and calling communities into action. At the same time, governments and private industries utilize technology as a repressive force for surveillance, hyper capitalism, and extraction.  As we interrogate technology as a tool for progress and social advancement, it is integral to question who these tools are inaccessible to and who they surveil. From facial recognition software to parole eligibility and mortgage loan algorithms, technology is experienced on an intersectional level. For historically excluded and racially marginalized people, technology means increased policing, hyper criminalization and cultural extraction. The overlapping issues within these large topics deserve credible information and discussion.  This conversation hopes to bring together educated scholars and a curious audience in engaging conversation. Uncomfortable dialogue is necessary to move towards unbiased systems, and it starts with honest and vulnerable community discussion.

Discussion | The History of Antisemitism: The Alhambra Decree (online)


Delve into the events leading up to the Alhambra Decree and what happened to the Jewish community in the wake of the edict in this panel discussion. On March 31, 1492, King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain issued the Alhambra Decree, also known as the Edict of Expulsion, which gave Jews until the end of July to leave the country or convert to Catholicism. Some chose to convert and practice Judaism in secret, but many were forced to leave their homeland behind. Those who did stay risked being tortured and killed by the Spanish Inquisition, which had been established in 1478.  Francois Soyer, Associate Professor of Early Modern History at the University of New England, and Matthew Warshawsky, Chair of the Department of International Languages and Cultures and Professor of Spanish at the University of Portland, will be in conversation with Ethan Marcus, the Managing Director of the Sephardic Brotherhood.

Book Discussion | Take What You Need: A Novel of an Outsider Artist (online)


Does art imitate life or does life imitate art? Is a portrait a reflection of the model or the artist? What compels a writer to inhabit the mind of a visual artist in a work of fiction? What drives the artist in literature and in life? Idra Novey (Those Who Knew, Ways to Disappear) will converse with Brandon Taylor (Real Life, The Late Americans) and Siri Hustvedt (Memories of the Future, The Blazing World) about the mercurial figure of the fictionalized artist in their respective books. Novey’s new novel, Take What You Need, follows an outsider artist; Hustvedt has explored the lives of visual artists and the politics of the art world throughout her work; and Taylor’s nationally bestselling collection of stories, Filthy Animals, dives into the intersection of love, sex, and artistic expression. The panel will explore big questions regarding art, humanity, and literature–the makings of the very best kind of evening.

Sweet Tooth, the debut album from bassist, singer and composer Mali Obomsawin nodded to both the familiarly freeing legacy of Ornette Coleman's mid-20th-century quartet and to lesser-known declarations of independence: the sounds, songs and ideas of Maine's Wabanaki people. Obamsawin connects these histories with rare power and ingenuity. "My people have had to innovate endlessly to get our stories heard," she has said. Here, Obomsawin and her band will perform original music, followed by an in-depth conversation with series host Larry Blumenfeld and other panelists about connections between jazz and Indigenous cultures, and the issues surrounding Indigenous resistance movements.
