You are invited to join the Futures Initia
tive for a live-streamed\, one-hour workshop on engaged pedagogy as a way o
f modeling a more egalitarian society. The workshop will take place on
August 28 at 1 pm at the CUNY Graduate Center\, rm. 9204\, and will be
facilitated by Professor Cathy Davidson. This workshop opens The University Worth Fighting For\, a series of worksho
ps that tie student-centered\, engaged pedagogical practices to institution
al change\, race\, equality\, gender\, and social justice.
To help bu
ild momentum prior to this workshop\, we also invite you to join this student-led read
ing group\, “Towards a Pedagogy of Equality.” This public\, student-led
discussion is open to anyone for the next month on the learning community\
, HASTAC. The workshop on August 28 at the Graduate Center is intended to b
uild upon the online conversation. Instead of a conventional academic talk\
, we hope to highlight many diverse voices in the workshop\, and include as
many creative\, activist\, non-traditional approaches to pedagogy as possi
ble.
Suggested Readings and Viewings:
Pau
lo Freire\, Pedagogy of the Oppressed\, Chapter Two (widely available onlin
e)
HASTAC has invited Futures Initiative Graduate Fellow and HASTAC Scholar <
a href="https://www.hastac.org/u/danicasavonick">Danica Savonick to get
us started on our first conversation. Danica is a doctoral student in Engl
ish at the Graduate Center\, CUNY and an educator at Queens College. She ha
s posted several blogs on pedagogy and equality on HASTAC (on collaborative pedagogy and social j
ustice\, teachi
ng #BlackLivesMatter\, and designing collaborative digital projects). Danica is cur
rently writing a dissertation on pedagogy and social justice.
An
yone can join the conversation\, any member can post. We encourage lively
debate\, respectful of difference. We hope undergraduate and graduate stude
nts anywhere will join this conversation\, and we hope faculty members migh
t challenge their students to contribute to this public forum by posting in
the Comments section.

In The P
ractice of Everyday Life\, de Certeau writes th
at “What the map cuts up\, the story cuts across.” But what if the everyday
stories you seek are already cut up by centuries of structural inequality
and oppression\, such as those of lesbians and queer women? In this talk on
“Queering the Map\,” Jack Gieseking investigate
s what can be gained for the study of queer lives and spaces by bringing to
gether the isolated but overlapping stories of lesbians and queer women in
maps\, from the hand-drawn to the most technologically advanced and interac
tive.
Drawing upon qualitative
and quantitative work on lesbians’ and queer women’s spaces and economies
in New York City from 1983 to 2008—including multi-generational focus group
s and mental maps\, archival research and GIS—Gieseking works through three
different types of mapping methods and platforms within a participatory ac
tion research framework. Through a close analysis of mental maps\, and GIS
maps made across platforms using QGIS\, CartoDB\, and TileMill/Mapbox\, the
y suggest that the spatial and verbal can both obfuscate or illuminate unde
rstandings of everyday life. It is the queer practice of holding these seem
ing binaries in tension that reveals the most rich and complicated knowledg
e.
Jen Jack Gieseking is a
sociocultural geographer\, feminist and queer theorist\, and urban environm
ental psychologist. He is engaged in research on co-productions of space an
d identity in digital and material environments\, with a focus on sexual an
d gender identities. Jack’s work pays special attention to how such product
ions support or inhibit social\, spatial\, and economic justice. She is wor
king on his first monograph\, Queer New York: Geographies of Lesbians\,
Dykes\, and Queer Women\, 1983-2008. He is Assistant
Professor of Public Humanities in American Studies at Trinity College in Hartford\, Connecticut\, and recently completed a Postdoctoral Fe
llowship at Bowdoin College.
Jack’
s first book is The People\, Place\, and Space Reader\, c
o-edited with William Mangold\, Cindi Katz\, Setha Low\, and Susan Saegert<
/span>\, and recently out with Routledge. He has held fellowships with the
Alexander von Humboldt Foundation as German Chancellor Fellow\; The Center
for Place\, Culture\, and Politics\; The Center for Lesbian and Gay Studies
\; and the Woodrow Wilson Women’s Studies Dissertation Fellows Program. Jac
k has published in Journal of Urban Affairs\,Qualitative Inquiry
\, Journal of Interactive Technology & Pedagogy\, Antipode\, and Radical Hi
story Review\, and has contributed to HASTAC as well. She also writes about his research a
s a blogger with the Huffington Post Gay Voices.

Join us at the Graduate Center on November 18 from 1-2 PM in the Skyl

This is
the fourth of eight conversations as part of
The University Worth Fighting For\, a year-long project designed to tie
student-centered\, engaged practices in our classrooms to larger issues of
institutional change\, equality\, race\, gender\, and all forms of social
justice.
The discussion on career paths and hiring practices will ran
ge from practical suggestions to higher-order questions\, including thorny
issues related to the casualization of academic labor\, the size of PhD pro
grams\, and ways that expanding our expectations of career outcomes might a
ffect the structure of graduate programs (as well as who has access to thos
e programs and who sees them as worth the investment).

Join us Thursday\, December 7 f
rom 12:30 until 2:00 in the lab (room 7388.01) for presentations by Jeffrey
Binder and Teresa Ober on their projects:
Reading with Emotion in the Eighteenth Century Jeffrey Binder\, English
This project
looks at how the “passions and humours” are represented in eighteenth-cent
ury elocution manuals—a genre of text that provides an important document o
f the way people understood the performance of emotion in this period. Its
primary focus is on the 1761 book The Art of Speaking by Ja
mes Burgh\, an influential text that uses a sophisticated visual representa
tion to tell students how to express emotion while delivering a speech. Je
ffrey is producing an online edition of this text that reproduces the full
system of annotations.
D
igital Pedagogical Tool for Teaching Research Methods Ter
esa Ober\, Educational Psychology
This project
aims to develop a computer application currently named “Manuscript Builder
” to be used for teaching students how to design sound research outlines. U
ltimately\, the project’s mission is to promote knowledge of sound research
methodology in psychology and the social sciences. The computer applicatio
n may be used as an instructional resource across a variety of courses\, in
cluding but not limited to courses in research methods in psychology\, stat
istics\, and the behavioral and social sciences more broadly speaking.

C
hristina Katopodis\, English
The Walden Sounds
cape project is my effort to share the sounds at Walden Pond in Concord\, M
A with any interested reader of Henry David Thoreau’s Walden in the form of
an immersive website experience. I’m recording sounds at the pond in all f
our seasons\, and creating companion stop-motion animation videos of a walk
around the pond in each season. This project calls attention to the musica
lity of Thoreau’s philosophy and writing\, and serves to immerse readers of
Walden in the visual and sonic landscape of the pond. The project is part
of my dissertation on the impact of sound and sonic vibrations on the Ameri
can Transcendentalists\, who were interested in maintaining harmony with na
ture (in a musical sense of active\, reciprocal participation) and who unde
rstood music to be an experience not limited to the hearing world.
Modeling the paleodistribution o
f baboons and vervets: A primate model for early modern human biogeography<
/i>
Natalie O’Shea\, Anthropology
Early modern human demography and biogeography are related to a wide
range of important issues in modern human origins research\, from the earl
iest appearance of markers of symbolic culture in the archaeological record
to the global dispersal of Homo sapiens by at least 60 thousand y
ears ago. However\, our ability to discern ancient patterns of population s
tructure from the fossil record and patterns of variation in extant populat
ions is limited. Patterns of genetic and morphological variation in other w
idely-distributed\, ecologically-flexible primates can provide useful insig
hts into past human demographic and biogeographic changes. Baboons (genus <
em>Papio) and vervets (genus Chlorocebus) are broadly co-dist
ributed with each other and human populations in woodland and savannah habi
tats across sub-Saharan Africa\, making them good ecological model taxa for
early modern human populations. This study will utilize recently developed
species distribution modeling techniques to map the current and past distr
ibutions of baboons and vervets to identify regions in which populations of
the earliest members of our species may have persisted through difficult c
limate conditions in Africa over the past 130 thousand years. Overall\, the
results of this work will provide a model for early modern human demograph
y and biogeography and also expand our understanding of African faunal evol
ution more broadly.

Join us Tuesday\, April
17 from 12:30 until 2:00 in the lab (room 7388.01) for presentations by:
This project examines images that claim repr
esentational authority over future landscapes in southern Louisiana. These
images include maps and digital renderings of disappeared coastlines\, subs
iding lands\, and underwater Main Streets – topog
raphies that do not yet exist but that nevertheless demand action in the pr
esent. They enter circulation in urgent news stories and fifty year urban m
aster plans\, and they are magnets for words like ‘resilience’ and ‘retreat
.’ At public planning meetings\, predictive maps that stage the parish land
scape over coming decades are important guides for community decision-makin
g. In order to better understand these risky images\, the futures they purp
ort to represent\, and their effects in the present\, this project asks aft
er the kinds of data sets and attendant assumptions that go into mapping th
ese not-yet-existent landscapes. What inclusions and omissions make them po
ssible? What contingencies or uncertainties are elided? These questions can
help us understand how representations of climate futures set the paramete
rs for action and imagination.
Introduction to Classical Cultures is a video-podcast series about the
Classics that features motion graphic design to provide a smart and enjoyab
le overview of Greek and Latin literature. The series is aimed to update th
e teaching approach of the classics\, bringing it closer to the rest of the
humanities. Subjects of the podcast-series will be the works of the most i
mportant Classical authors\, which largely coincide with the course “Classi
cal Cultures” offered in most universities in the United States. The six vi
deos—three about Greek authors\, three about Latin authors—will cover the
major literary genres of antiquity and will be in chronological order\, so
as to offer a general overview on Classical culture.

resentations by:
Fro
m Berlin to Beijing\, men are joining seduction communities (charm schools)
to learn skills in dating women. These communities raise questions of inti
macy\, consent\, and authenticity as problems for men who learn techniques
of social persuasion as they seek to attract women and transform their pers
onal identities. By displacing sexual inhibitions\, these communities focus
on developing forms of social capital through “weak ties” (Putnam 2000) th
at allow men to feel a sense of belonging in impersonal urban environments.
This project uses digital software for text mining and topic modeling of b
ig data to find out how men are developing an embodied sense of masculine i
dentity through standardized training in seduction skills. Conducting stati
stical analyses and comparisons among prescriptive texts (ebooks and seduct
ion manuals) with descriptive accounts (digitally published diaries) of use
rs’ experiences and mishaps in striving to embody so-called “alpha masculin
ity\,” this project aims to discover what kinds of social intimacies follow
from the labor of dating consultants\, and what happens to those men who b
uild social communities—both online and in real life—around their practices
. For which men do seduction skills come to be thought of as integral to th
eir self-fashioning? How does rationalizing intimacy create new forms of po
wer and dependency between men? What do seduction communities reveal about
the vulnerabilities and frailties of masculinity today? This research is be
ing developed for public view using Scalar\, a multimedia storytelling plat
form. Please visit the website for more information.

Please join us for The
Futures Initiative Fall Symposium “Who Is Included? Restructuring Our Work
and Our World”. As we wrap up the semester\, faculty and students from our
Fall 2018 Team-T
aught Courses will take the stage in what will be the culmination of a
fruitful series of courses that are aimed at supporting diversity\, equity\
, and student-centered interdisciplinary learning at the graduate level. Th
is will also be a unique opportunity to learn about the nuts and bolts of o
ur organization\, as The Futures Initiative Team will walk the talk and mak
e the audience engage in a practical example of how we think and work for a
more equitable and innovative higher education.
Whether subtle or ov
ert\, the dynamics of inclusion and exclusion are all around us. Classrooms
\, workplaces\, and cultural representations are all sites of welcome or al
ienation (or both). This timely event will include discussion\, hands-on wo
rkshop sessions\, and even an opera performance —all with the aim of consid
ering the ways in which the structures that surround us do or do not contri
bute to a sense of belonging and agency. As educators\, students\, and prac
titioners\, we have an opportunity to help design more equitable futures.
This symposium will be structured in sessions that will draw on the th
ree courses team-taught this Fall:
Mind the Gap: The Future of Work will dea
l with the policies\, technologies\, and social systems that should be anti
cipated today to ensure positive outcomes for the future.
Disability\, Culture\, and Society will address the ways that represe
ntation of disability in literature\, art\, music\, theater\, film\, and po
pular culture—the ways that bodies and minds constructed as disabled are de
picted—both reflect and shape cultural understandings of nonconforming iden
tities and extraordinary bodies\, affecting the lived experience of people
understood as disabled\, often in negative ways.
Before the end
\, since we strive to be inclusive by nature\, the Futures Initiative Gradu
ate Fellows will lift the curtain and show you the program’s backstage. Thu
s the audience will be able to see and take part in our kitchen\, where we
prepare recipes for the future of a more equitable and innovative higher ed
ucation.
This event is free. Please RSVP\, seating is limited! A casual reception will follow at 6pm in Room 3317.

SUMMARY: Author’s Circle with Eileen Findlay on “We are Left Without a Fath
er Here”
DESCRIPTION: Futures Initiative Faculty Fellows Andrea Morrell and Karen Mi
ller\, who this Fall semester co-teach the “Transformations in Modernities
since 1914” class\, will be holding an open classroom session on Thursday\,
October 10 from 4:15 to 6:15 at The Graduate Center\, CUNY\, in Room C204.
Eileen Suarez Findlay\, Professor at American University\, will be discuss
ing her […]
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:
We Are Left without a Father Here is a transnational histor
y of working people's struggles and a gendered analysis of populism and col
onialism in mid-twentieth-century Puerto Rico. At its core are the thousand
s of agricultural workers who\, at the behest of the Puerto Rican governmen
t\, migrated to Michigan in 1950 to work in the state's sugar beet fields.
The men expected to earn enough income to finally become successful breadwi
nners and fathers. To their dismay\, the men encountered abysmal working co
nditions and pay. The migrant workers in Michigan and their wives in Puerto
Rico soon exploded in protest. Chronicling the protests\, the surprising a
lliances that they created\, and the Puerto Rican government's response\, E
ileen J. Suárez Findlay explains that notions of fatherhood and domesticity
were central to Puerto Rican populist politics. Patriarchal ideals shaped
citizens' understandings of themselves\, their relationship to Puerto Rican
leaders and the state\, as well as the meanings they ascribed to U.S. colo
nialism. Findlay argues that the motivations and strategies for transnation
al labor migrations\, colonial policies\, and worker solidarities are all d
eeply gendered.

these questions and come up with concrete and measurable plans to develop a
public voice this semester. We strongly encourage attendees to come to the
event with ideas on how to engage with the public in connection with their
scholarship.
This event is part of the The University Worth Fighting
For\, a series of workshops that tie student-centered\, engaged pedagogica
