Lecture | Addicted to Propaganda: How Russians Learned to Trust the Kremlin's Falsehoods


When Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the world was shocked to learn how often Russians fell for the Kremlin's pro-war propaganda pushed through loyal state media. Some citizens even trusted television reports more than they believed their own family members in Ukraine. In his talk, Dr. Anton Shirikov will explain how authoritarian media can gain and cultivate such public trust, presenting evidence from surveys and experiments he conducted in Russia in recent years. He will discuss whether Russians are-as scholars often think-sophisticated and discerning news consumers, why they find propaganda messages credible, and why so few of them seek alternative information sources. This research offers insights into how Vladimir Putin's regime manages public opinion and maintains acceptance of the war.

Book Discussion | Alphabetical Disorder: The Last Window-Giraffe at 25 (in-person and online)


Celebrate International Translation Day and the US publication of The Last Window-Giraffe, Hungarian author Péter Zilahy’s groundbreaking fictional memoir of the 1996 protests in Belgrade. Translated by the late Tim Wilkinson and published by Sandorf Passage with a foreword by Marina Abramović, the new edition marks the 25th anniversary of the book’s original release, and the 25th country in which it has appeared. With ongoing wars and autocrats vying for power around the world, this meditation on life under a dictatorship, modeled after a Hungarian primary school textbook, continues to speak to us both as a history lesson and a warning about what the future can hold.  Author Péter Zilahy will be joined by two of his book’s translators, married couple Mari Alföldy and Viacheslav Sereda, for conversation and readings from the Hungarian, Dutch, Russian, and English versions of the book.

Book Discussion | Ukraine Is Not Dead Yet: A Family Story of Exile and Return (in-person and online)


Author Megan Buskey presents her family's story of exile and return to Ukraine, in discussion with Brigid O'Keeffe, Professor, Brooklyn College. When Megan Buskey’s grandmother Anna dies in Cleveland in 2013, Megan is compelled in her grief to uncover and document her grandmother’s life in Ukraine. A Ukrainian American, Buskey returns to her family’s homeland and enlists her relatives there to help her in her quest—and discovers much more than she expected. The result is an extraordinary journey that traces one woman’s story across Ukraine’s difficult twentieth century, from a Galician village emerging from serfdom, to the “bloodlands” of Eastern Europe during World War II, to the Siberian hinterlands where Anna spent almost two decades in exile before receiving the rare opportunity to emigrate from the Soviet Union in the 1960s. In the course of her research, Megan encounters essential and sometimes disturbing aspects of recent Ukrainian history, such as Nazi collaboration, the rise and persistence of Ukrainian nationalism, and the shattering impact of Russia’s full-scale invasion in 2022. Yet her wide-ranging inquiries keep leading her back to universal questions: What does family mean? How can you forge connections between generations that span different cultures, times, and places? And, perhaps most hauntingly, how can you best remember a complicated past that is at once foreign and personal?

Lecture | How George Sand Met "Germain" or Why We Still Need Handwriting


Professor Evelyne Ender (Johns Hopkins University) discusses the handwritten manuscript of George Sand's 19th Century French tale La Mare au Diable. What are we losing in terms of human creativity as we lose our grip on handwriting and rely instead on machine-writing? This question has served as a prompt for Evelyne Ender's forthcoming book, HandWriting: An Inner History. In her talk, she will revisit the manuscript of George Sand's tale La Mare au Diable in order to discuss the emergence of an artwork in an age of manuscription. This presentation does not assume prior acquaintance with Sand's work or a specialization in French studies

Book Discussion | Sovereign Intimacy: Private Media and the Traces of Colonial Violence


In the early 1990s, Israeli television began dedicating Memorial Day air time to videos produced by the grieving families of soldiers killed in the line of duty. When these videos first appeared during a period of growing Israeli discontent with the occupation of southern Lebanon, they were widely perceived as a challenge to the state, reclaiming the dead from Israel’s militaristic memory culture by resituating them in intimate domestic contexts via mediated commemorations. By tracing an emerging private media system of freelance filmmaking, privatized television, state institutes of care, and grassroots campaigns, Laliv Melamed reveals how these videos nevertheless evade a fundamental critique of Israeli militarism, which is instead invited into the familiar space of the home. These intimate connections of memory and media exploit bonds of kinship and reshape larger relationships between the state and its citizens, enabling a collective disavowal of colonial violence. In Sovereign Intimacy, Laliv Melamed offers a poignant and critical view of the weaponization of home media and mourning in service of the neoliberal settler state.

Discussion | Notes on Reality Art: An Evening with Artist Signe Pierce


Multimedia artist Signe Pierce provides an interactive and entertaining perspective on her art while in conversation with art writer Cassie Packard. Signe Pierce is an American artist known for her work in the fields of photography, performance, and video. Her work often focuses on themes of identity, the body, and technology, and frequently features her own image in surreal and highly staged scenes which challenge societal norms and conventions. Pierce explores the dynamic among the material, the spiritual, and the virtual whilst examining the impact that technology is having on our perceptions of self, psyche, and soul. Her highly stylized images and provocative lyrics aim to encourage self-reflection about what it means to be real in an increasingly simulated age. Pierce’s works have been shown at MoMA, Athens Biennial, Palais de Tokyo, and the New Museum.
