Lecture | Historical Fakes in Russian Media During the First Phase of the Russian Aggression Against Ukraine (in-person and online)
Battlefield confrontations are only one element of the war in Ukraine. Russian hybrid aggression preceded a full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. This hybrid war had multilevel dimensions including interpretation of the past. During 2014-2016 Russia disseminated historical fakes that had to present Ukraine as an artificial and failed state. Covering the situation in Ukraine, Russian media uses the frame of WWII, which is extremely ideologies in contemporary Russian public discourse. The Russian-supported campaign in Donbas is predicated as a “Little Patriotic War” — a repetition or re-enactment of “The Great Patriotic War.” What other historical fakes were used by Russia? How have these fakes affected reality? What impact have they had in Ukraine and abroad? Speaker Yana Prymachenko is a Senior Researcher at the Institute of History of Ukraine, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

Discussion | Studying the Now: Dismantling Anti-Black and Antisemitic Rhetoric (online)
This panel will invite speakers to explore the connections between anti-Blackness and antisemitism. Kanye West’s recent appearances in the media are the most recent manifestation of a sharp rise in both anti-Blackness and antisemitism in popular discourse. Often, when these forms of bigotry are put into dialogue, they are pitted against each other as irreducible expressions of discrimination. But this panel will invite speakers to explore the connections between anti-Blackness and antisemitism, as well as what is distinctive in the contemporary moment in which they are linked together. The purpose of this panel is to unpack and contextualize anti-Blackness and antisemitism in popular discourse. Topics may include celebrity, social media and race; historical relationships between Black and Jewish people in the United States; the different ways that anti-Black and antisemitic beliefs become linked in contemporary ideology (e.g., “Great Replacement Theory”) and the ways in which they are distinct; and what possibilities exist in culture and scholarship to resist and dismantle both of these bigotries. Moderated by Jennifer Rosales, VP for Inclusion & Engaged Learning, Chief Diversity Officer Panelists: -- Westenley Alcenat, Assistant Professor of History at Fordham University -- Racquel Gates, Associate Professor of Film and Media Studies at Columbia University -- Rabbi Sharon Kleinbaum, Congregation Beit Simchat Torah in New York City -- Magda Teter, Professor of History and the Shvidler Chair of Judaic Studies at Fordham University

Concert | Something about the Weather: A Concert of Traditional Instruments, Digital Processing and Everyday Objects
A new and original work by New York-based composer, producer, and performer Hahn Rowe. Rowe describes Something about the Weather as "an inquiry into what we do when we are left to make something from nothing. While old structures are stubbornly refusing to die, many have lost the ability to dream of another reality. Music and sound can ignite our ability to ride along the edges of our imagination, where transformation is possible." In this concert, Rowe will use digital processing alongside traditional instruments and crude, everyday objects to build a fluid, shapeshifting soundscape for the Lantern -- the flexible, top-floor space of the venue. "An expedition in the wilderness? A cooking show gone awry? A negotiation of inclement conditions?," Rowe asks. Something about the Weather is "a ritual romp through a playground of all things sonorous."
