Book Discussion | Feeling Moved: Upward Mobility and Emotions in Socialist Poland


In this presentation, Magda Sczceśniak offers a theorization of socialist upward mobility stories, a heterogenous genre which aimed to capture the experience of class advancement in state socialism, on the example of the Polish People’s Republic. A key declaration of the new post-war state was the promise of mass upward mobility of the peasant and working classes. The new system’s introduction was to precipitate the improvement of material living conditions for working classes, their symbolic appreciation, and—perhaps most importantly—their participation in state management. The professed end goal was a classless society, if classes are understood as hierarchical groups remaining in conflict over differing interests and the ownership of means of production. Although this goal was never achieved, the socialist period in Poland was in fact a time of intense social mobility. Drawing on diverse representations—from propaganda newsreels through film and literature to working-class writing—Szcześniak will examine recurring figures and tropes of the newly identified genre. Socialist upward mobility stories developed over time in response to the evolving class politics of the state and transforming class relations and influenced the ways in which class was thought and lived in state socialism. Szcześniak argues that socialist upward mobility stories were characterized by four recurring ideologemes: the collective character of socialist upward mobility, the state’s role as benefactor, the diffusion of upward mobility, and a heightened emotionality. Magda Szcześniak is Assistant Professor in the Institute of Polish Culture, University of Warsaw. Author of Normy widzialności. Tożsamość w czasach transformacji (Norms of Visuality. Identity in Times of Transition, 2016) and Poruszeni. Awans i emocje w socjalistycznej Polsce (Feeling Moved. Upward Mobility and Emotions in Socialist Poland, 2023). Two-time Fulbright scholar (2010/2011, 2019/2020) and mentor in the Fulbright Poland “Top Minds” program. She has also received stipends from the Polish National Science Centre and the Ministry of Higher Education and Science.

Book Discussion | Mainstreaming and Game Journalism by David B. Nieborg and Maxwell Foxman


Mainstreaming and Game Journalism (MIT Press, September 2023) addresses both the history and current practice of game journalism, along with the roles writers and industry play in conveying that the medium is a “mainstream” form of entertainment.  Through interviews with reporters, David B. Nieborg and Maxwell Foxman retrace how the game industry and journalists started a subcultural spiral in the 1980s that continues to this day. Ultimately, Mainstreaming and Game Journalism provocatively questions whether games ever will—or even should—gain widespread cultural acceptance.

Discussion | State of Silence: The Espionage Act, Politics, and Press Freedom


Since the passage of the Espionage Act in 1917, the U.S. secrecy regime has expanded with no overall vision, limiting the press, restricting political dissidents, and keeping citizens in the dark. After opening remarks from Jameel Jaffer (Knight Institute Executive Director), a panel of legal experts and journalists will discuss the contemporary politics of the Espionage Act, including its use in the prosecution of former President Trump, the ongoing efforts to extradite Julian Assange to the United States, and the prospects for reforming the act to reduce the harms it poses to American democracy. They will also discuss the forthcoming book State of Silence: The Espionage Act and the Rise of America’s Secrecy Regime (Basic Books, November 2023), by Sam Lebovic (Knight Institute Senior Visiting Research Scholar 2023-2024; George Mason University).

Screening | Black Girls Play (2023): Short Film on the Story of Hand Games


There may be no journey more fascinating than the exploration of our roots. There may be nothing more revealing than the discovery of where we come from — our inspiration, our ideas, our culture. This short film chronicle the origins of the hand games that have been played by young Black girls for generations, and their influence on music, dance, and community all across the American creative landscape. Tracing the beginnings of the games all the way back to the slavery era, the film’s collection of illuminating voices — including musicians, music educators and ethnomusicologists — trace a fascinating cultural history that explains the significance of hand games, particularly in the evolution of popular music from jazz all the way to hip hop. The film also explores hand games’ influence on style and individualism everywhere from the playground to TikTok videos today. And it also questions why so much of the popular culture to come out of hand games has been dominated by men, when young girls were its original creators. Directors: Joe Brewster and Michèle Stephenson 18 min. Post-screening discussion with Kyra Gaunt, ethnomusicologist and author of The Games Black Girls Play: Learning the Ropes from Double-Dutch to Hip-Hop

Film | Kidnapped (2023): Jewish Child Stolen by the Church


In 1858, in the Jewish quarter of Bologna, the Pope's soldiers burst into the home of the Mortara family. By order of the cardinal, they have come to take Edgardo, their seven-year-old son. The child had been secretly baptized by his nurse as a baby and the papal law is unquestionable: he must receive a Catholic education. Edgardo's parents, distraught, will do anything to get their son back. Supported by public opinion and the international Jewish community, the Mortaras' struggle quickly take a political dimension. But the Church and the Pope will not agree to return the child, to consolidate an increasingly wavering power. Directed by Marco Bellocchio Starring: Paolo Pierobon, Fausto Russo Alesi, Barbara Ronchi 134 min. In Italian with English subtitles Accompanied by a Q&A with the director

Discussion | Political Trust in Europe: Is There a Crisis, and Does it Matter?


Political trust is commonly said to be critical for the functioning of liberal democracy. It indicates the belief that parties and politicians are ready and able to govern in the interests of citizens in reliable ways, even if exposed to little supervision or scrutiny. Trust facilitates political compromise, political integration, and social peace. Public debates and some studies suggest that European voters may be losing this important disposition. The surge of populist parties across European democracies, shrinking vote shares of mainstream parties, and visible protest movements are widely seen as clearcut signals in this regard. This conversation explores the scope of this perceived crisis and what the conditions and long-term consequences might be. It brings together international experts from the fields of political theory, empirical political sociology, and party politics. The panel participants will present their insights on the state of political trust in European politics in short introductory statements, discuss them in a panel a conversation, and respond to questions from the audience. Participants: __ Marc Hooghe is a full professor of Political Science at the University of Leuven (Belgium), and a Visiting Professor at the Universities of Mannheim, Lille-II and Utrecht. -- Mark Warren is Emeritus Professor of Political Science at the University of British Columbia, former Merilees Chair for the Study of Democracy, and President of the American Political Science Association. -- Milada Vachudova is Professor of Political Science at the Department of Political Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. -- Thomas Zittel is Professor for Comparative Politics at Goethe University Frankfurt and currently Max Weber Visiting Professor for European and German Studies at the Center for European and Mediterranean Studies, New York University.

Discussion | Conspiratorial Memory in Russia


In 2021, the National Liberation Movement (NOD), a nationalist social movement backed by the Russian state, started gathering signatures to petition the Russian Supreme Court to overrule the USSR’s breakup. The petition claims that the dissolution of the USSR was unlawful and resulted from a conspiracy between Mikhail Gorbachev and other key politicians of the time. To motivate people to sign, the activists addressed current problems: the reunification of the USSR would have stopped the war in Donbas (pre-February 24, 2022) and would stop the ‘special military operation’ in Ukraine, prevent opening the “second front” in Georgia, strengthen the country against the hostile West.  The idea that the dissolution of the USSR was a conspiracy is not new; in fact, it has been circulating in other milieus, especially pro-Soviet communities. Some of them also petitioned the courts or even went as far as claiming that the USSR still existed, Russian passports are void, and that the current regime has usurped power. The latter communities are now outlawed. However, the topic is new for the National Liberation Movement, which previously did not engage deeply with the Soviet memory.

Book Discussion | Lesbian Poetic Traditions (In Person AND Online)


The iconic feminist poet Judy Grahn re-explores the traditions of lesbian poetry from Sappho to Pat Parker and beyond. In 1985, Judy Grahn boldly declared that lesbians have a poetic tradition and mapped it from Sappho to the present day in the groundbreaking book The Highest Apple. In 2023 the book is being reprinted as part of the Sapphic Classics series, which is dedicated to reprints of iconic works of lesbian poetry. Grahn revisits the original text, which situates poetry by Sappho, Emily Dickinson, Gertrude Stein, Adrienne Rich, Audre Lorde, and more as central to lesbian culture—and more radically as central to society as a whole. Judy Grahn is joined by scholar and poet Julie R. Enszer and others to discuss the continued relevance and dynamism of Grahn’s seminal work.

Jazz | Mingus Ensemble


Charles Mingus was one of the most original, iconoclastic and influential composers of the twentieth century. The vast scope of his work includes everything from orchestral tone poems like "Adagio ma Non Troppo," to the Gospel-tinged "Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting" and the hard-swinging jazz classic "Moanin'." He was passionate, political, controversial and an ever imposing force on the global jazz scene until his untimely death in 1979. His rich legacy remains an indispensable part of the jazz canon and continues to invite deeper inspection and modern interpretation. With a respectful nod to the forward-looking spirit of Charles Mingus, contemporary rhythmic elements (hip-hop, drum & bass, etc.) will be introduced in the reshaping, deconstruction and at time, total renovation of the original material.
