This event introduces the latest publications by faculty in a three-part collective reading event, starting with a performance and reading by Ahmed Abdullah, author of A Strange Celestial Road: My Time in the Sun Ra Arkestra. The event celebrates recent publications by university faculty, centers, and institutes, across all five colleges. Curated around thematic clusters, nearly twenty authors assemble for a three-part series of readings and exchanges around a range of topics. Arriving from different fields and programs, they demonstrate the interdisciplinary and public-facing nature of scholarship. Participants include Ahmed Abdullah, Ujju Aggarwal, T. Alexander Aleinikoff and Alexandra Délano Alonso, Ana Isabel Baptista, Ben Barry, Katayoun Chamany, Camonghne Felix, Alan McGowan, Natalia Mehlman-Petrzela, Marisa Morán Jahn, Kirstin Munro, Dmitri Nikulin, John Reed, Jennifer Rittner, R. Trebor Scholz, Helen Schulman, and Kelly Walters.
