SUMMARY:“Forgotten\, Ignored\, and Distorted Histories of Romani People: Past and Present”
DESCRIPTION:The historical record is marked by voids: elided events; disappeared people; erased accounts; marginalized communities. \n  \nThe Center for the Study of the Holocaust\, Genocide\, and Crimes Against Humanity (Graduate Center—City University of New York)\, in association with the School of General Studies and the Master of Arts in Holocaust and Genocide Studies (Stockton University) and the Skirball Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies (New York University)\, offers a year-long  virtual series\, The Marginalized and the Erased\, to tackle a number of those blank spots. \n  \nPlease join us on September 29\, 2022 at 12:00 noon (EDT) for the first of the series: \n  \n“Forgotten\, Ignored\, and Distorted Histories of Romani People: Past and Present” \n  \nGroundbreaking scholars Ethel Brooks\, Ioanida Costache\, and László Csősz move between past and present as they plumb the history of anti-Roma racist violence\, and the erasure of that history even as the violence persists. Drawing upon testimonies and documents\, their presentations reveal individual\, communal\, and institutional obstacles to remembrance and education. Chair of Women’s\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies at Rutgers University\, award-winning scholar Prof. Ethel Brooks serves (among many positions) as Chair of the Board of the European Roma Rights Center.  Dr Ioanida Costache\, recipient of a prestigious postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania\, focuses on Romani historical trauma and artistic practice.  Prof. László Csősz\, historian and senior archivist at the National Archives of Hungary is also a Claims Conference University Partnership in Holocaust Studies Senior Lecturer at the ELTE University in Budapest. His current project explores the wartime history of the Hungarian Roma. \nChair: Debórah Dwork \n  \nhttps://gc-cuny-edu.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_vVXGC9gxRoq1jYLe3FFKpA \n  \n  \nThe Center for the Study of the Holocaust\, Genocide\, and Crimes Against Humanity\, The Graduate Center—City University of New York \nIn association with:\nCenter for Jewish Studies at The Graduate Center—City University of New York \nThe Holocaust and the United Nations Outreach Programme\, Education Outreach Section\, Outreach Division\, Department of Global Communications\, United Nations \n  \nThe School of General Studies and the Master of Arts in Holocaust and Genocide Studies\, Stockton University \nThe Skirball Department of Hebrew and Judaic Studies\, New York University

SUMMARY:Must the Subaltern Speak Publicly? Political Liberalism and the Ethics of Fighting Severe Injustice
DESCRIPTION:Must the Subaltern Speak Publicly?Political Liberalism and the Ethics of Fighting Severe InjusticeAlasia Nuti (University of York)Friday\, September 30\, 12:00 p.m. (ET)Online via Zoom\nWe are excited to welcome political theorist Alasia Nuti as our first colloquium speaker of Fall 222. The talk will be followed by a Q&A with the speaker.This is an online event. Please register in advance for this meeting. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email with information about joining. Follow this link to register: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwrduyorzMjH9cPZBtY09mMIT_fHloHNkgd\n\n\n\nAbstract\nThe victims of severe injustice\, but no other group in society\, are allowed to employ disruption and violence to seek political change. This article argues for this conclusion from within Rawlsian political liberalism\, which\, however\, has been criticised for allegedly imposing public reason’s suffocating norms of civility on the oppressed. It develops a novel view of the applicability of public reason in non-ideal circumstances – the ‘no self-sacrificed view’ – that is focused on the excessive costs of following public reason when suffering from severe injustice. On this view\, those treated in what Rawls describes as less than a reasonably just way are relieved of the duty of public reason and therefore entitled to employ disruption and violence. Turning to the requirements that actually apply to the oppressed\, the article also shows that\, when properly developed\, political liberalism offers original and nuanced normative guidance on how to fight severe injustice uncivilly.  \nSpeaker Bio \nAlasia Nuti is Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) in Political Theory at the University of York. She received her PhD\, which was awarded the Elizabeth Wiskemann Prize for the Study of Inequality and Social Justice from the Political Studies Association\, from the University of Cambridge. Her first book “Injustice and the Reproduction of History: Structural Injustice\, Gender\, and Redress” (Cambridge University Press\, 2019) received the Honourable Mention from the ECPR Prize in Political Theory in 2021. In 2022\, Alasia was awarded the Early Career Prize from the Britain and Ireland Association for Political Thought. She is currently working on a monograph (Oxford University Press\, under contract) on a revised account of political liberalism and the task of containment\, which is co-authored with Gabriele Badano. \n\n\nYou are also welcome to attend an upcoming event at the Graduate Center that was co-organized by some of our CGEP fellows: Feminism in Crisis? Philosophical Interventions\, CUNY Graduate Student Conference\, Oct. 1\, 2022\, 9am-6pm\, Room 5414\, and online. Robin Dembroff (Yale University) will keynote. Register to attend here.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVisit our YouTube page to watch videos of past events\, like our Facebook page\,and follow our twitter @global_ethics. CGEP Director: Carol C.
