SUMMARY:ABOUT THAT TERM "GENOCIDE"
DESCRIPTION:A new series hosted by the Center for the Study of the Holocaust\, Genocide\, and Crimes Against Humanity\, and sponsored by CUNY’s new Anti-Hate Initiative\, and co-sponsored by the BRES Collaboration Hub. \n“Genocide” has become a keyword for our time\, deployed by victim groups and their advocates in Asia\, Africa\, the Americas\, and Europe. While a powerful cry for help and attention as “the crime of crimes\,” do “genocide” allegations perform the work intended by their claimants? And what of patently self-serving and vexatious usages of the term? This roundtable will plumb the attractions and functions of claims of “genocide” in conflicts today. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease join us for the second of the series: \nTuesday 9 April 2024      4:00-5:15 pm (EDT) \nVIRTUAL\n“About That Term ‘Genocide‘”\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\nZachariah Mampilly holds the Marxe Endowed Chair of International Affairs at Baruch College—CUNY. He is the author of Africa Uprising: Popular Protest and Political Change. Zoé Samudzi serves as the Charles E. Scheidt Visiting Assistant Professor of Genocide Studies and Genocide Prevention at Clark University. She is the coauthor (with William Anderson) of As Black as Resistance: Finding the Conditions for Liberation. Professor of international relations at Georgia State University\, Jelena Subotic’s most recent book is Yellow Star\, Red Star: Holocaust Remembrance after Communism. \nChair/moderator A.

SUMMARY:OUT OF THE FRAME: CRISES IN SUDAN AND THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO
DESCRIPTION:The historical record is marked by events\, people\, and communities that remain just out of the frame. They are there\, clearly visible\, but no one pays attention to them. And we should. \nThe Center for the Study of the Holocaust\, Genocide\, and Crimes Against Humanity (Graduate Center—City University of New York)\, in cooperation with Marion Kaplan\, Professor Emerita of Hebrew and Judaic Studies (NYU) and Raz Segal\, Endowed Professor in the Study of Modern Genocide (Stockton University)\, offers a year-long virtual series\, Out of the Frame\, to center topics long overlooked. Please join us for the last of the series: \nWednesday 17 April 2024. 12:00-1:00 PM (EDT) Virtual\n“Out of the Frame: Crises in Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo” \nThe ongoing conflicts in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Sudan have witnessed mass killings of civilians\, internal displacement\, and the destruction of infrastructure. Yet the humanitarian crises in two of Africa’s largest countries remain outside the international spotlight. \nThis roundtable discussion features human rights activist/scholars Fred Bauma and Nisrin Elamin. Executive Secretary of Ebuteli\, a Kinshasa-based research institute\, Mr Bauma is a member of Lutte pour le Changement (LUCHA)\, a key pro-democracy movement in the DRC; he is a leading exponent of non-violent politics in Africa today. Prof Elamin (University of Toronto) investigates the connections between land\, race\, belonging and empire-making in Sudan and the broader Sahel region. She uses land and struggles over land as a lens through which to examine state surveillance of Sahelian migration. Chair: Prof Zachariah Mampilly\, Marxe Endowed Chair of International Affairs at the Marxe School of Public and International Affairs\, Baruch College.
