Faculty Lecture with Professor Arianna Eason (Psychology) - Making the Invisible Visible: How our racial landscape promotes prejudice from infancy to adulthood

In the U.S., racial inequity has persisted across generations and continues to be embedded throughout our cultural landscape. Drawing on developmental, social, and cultural psychology, in this talk I will examine how features of our social and cultural contexts (e.g., racially segregated neighborhoods and the omission of representation of groups in media) influence infants’, children’s, and adults’ thoughts and feelings about intergroup relations and different-race individuals. By bringing to light these processes, we can better understand why change is more difficult and slower than expected and dare to re-imagine and re-create a more equitable society.

Poetry and Vicarious Life - Speaker: Professor Eric Falci

Over the last year, everyday life has changed drastically in the midst of the global Covid-19 pandemic. The ways that many of us work, learn, interact with each other, and experience the world are all radically different than they were a year ago. Never has it been so clear how much we live in and through phone and computer screens -- how mediated and vicarious much of our lives are. We've all adjusted to a form of day-to-day life that is shaped as much by what we don't or can't do as what we can do, modes of vicariousness abound. Like literature more broadly, poetry has long trafficked in vicarious life: not only do readers take part vicariously in the mode of life staged in the poem, but there are also a number of poems that focus on experiences that the speaker of the poem didn't get to have, or were left out of, or only experienced second-hand. We'll spend some time on a small handful of texts in order to get a sense of how poetry, as it always does, might help us to think about our lives --- especially at such a strange and uncertain time.
