SUMMARY:Data Consciousness: Reframing Blackness in Contemporary Print
DESCRIPTION:Print Center New York is pleased to announce our fall 2025 exhibition Data Consciousness: Reframing Blackness in Contemporary Print\, which brings together work by Black contemporary artists who explore expanded modes of printmaking to question the complex interplay between race\, technology\, and representation in our increasingly data-driven world. The exhibition features Tahir Hemphill\, Julia Mallory\, Silas Munro\, Kameelah Janan Rasheed\, and William Villalongo and Shraddha Ramani. It will run September 18—December 13\, 2025 in the Center’s Jordan Schnitzer Gallery. It is the third and final exhibition in the Center’s year-long celebration of its 25th anniversary. \nThe exhibition’s title references the concept of double consciousness articulated by the sociologist\, historian\, and activist W.E.B. Du Bois—the sensation and unreconciled striving of looking at and measuring oneself through the eyes of others. The exhibition also draws inspiration from Du Bois (1868–1963)\, who\, at the 1900 Paris Exposition\, presented a series of graphs\, charts\, maps\, and photographs that visualized Black life after Reconstruction. Now considered important contributions to American design history and an early form of visual sociology and data science\, Du Bois’s proto-modernist\, hand-drawn infographics have had a profound impact in how we measure racial progress\, and are of increasing relevance as the presence of data in daily life grows. The works on view in Data Consciousness—including prints\, sculpture\, installation\, textile\, and video—reframe Black contemporary art as a critical site for understanding how digital infrastructures amplify and constrain identity and autonomy.

SUMMARY:The Projects: A New History of Public Housing - Author Talk at The Skyscraper Museum
DESCRIPTION:This is an in-person program at the Museum’s lower Manhattan gallery. \nAs the US struggles to provide affordable housing\, millions of Americans live in deteriorating public housing projects\, enduring the mistakes of past housing policy. In his new book The Projects\, Howard A. Husock explains how we got here\, detailing the tragic rise and fall of public housing and the pitfalls of other subsidy programs. He takes us inside a progressive movement led by a group of New York City philanthropists\, politicians\, and business magnates who first championed public housing as a solution to urban blight. \nYet despite the movement’s lofty ideals\, the creation of the Projects led to the destruction of low-income communities across the country. Husock connects the history of public housing with contemporary debates on the government’s role in the housing market. Through interviews with residents\, he reveals how public housing transformed the lives of Americans and the physical faces of cities and towns. Mapping out a better path for policy-makers\, he lays a new foundation for upward mobility in America. \nAfter his talk\, Howard Husock will engage in dialogue with Nicholas Dagen Bloom\, Professor of Urban Policy and Planning at Hunter College and author of several histories of housing. \nTo register for this FREE program\, click on the link above to RSVP. You will be redirected to Ticketstripe to reserve your seat. In-person attendance is limited to 50 people\, but you can still watch the program live on our YouTube channel when it begins at 6pm. You do NOT need to register for the YouTube livestream. \nHoward A.

SUMMARY:In Conversation with Dr. Menika Dirkson (Morgan State)\, author of "Hope and Struggle in the Policed City: Black Criminalization and Resistance in Philadelphia" (ĂŰĚŇ´«Ă˝\, 2024)
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Menika Dirkson is Associate Professor in the Department of History and Geography at Morgan State University in Maryland. Dr. Dirkson is a Philadelphia native\, and earned her PhD in History at Temple University. Find out more about her upcoming work here.\n\nHer recent book\, Hope and Struggle in the Policed City: Black Criminalization and Resistance in Philadelphia (ĂŰĚŇ´«Ă˝\, 2024)\, “explores how concerns about poverty-induced Black crime cultivated by police\, journalists\, and city officials sparked a rise in tough-on-crime policing in Philadelphia.” The book received an Honorable Mention (2025) in the Joe Trotter First Book Award category\, given by the Urban History Association. In her review\, UPenn’s Akira Drake Rodriguez noted that Dirkson’s book\, “offers a strong argument for how self-reinforcing anti-crime policies perpetuate increasing violence and crime in over-policed and surveilled communities. Through an abolitionist framing and methodology\, the book challenges declension narratives of majority-Black cities that suggest policing was a response to\, as opposed to the cause of\, destabilized and disinvested Black communities.” Find Dr. Dirkson’s website here\, and her faculty page at Morgan State here. And find the book here at the publisher’s website.\n\nSeries organizers (alphabetical) are Amber Broaden (CSUSB and CSU Dominguez Hills\, Psychology)\, Stan Futch (President\, Westside Action Group)\, Michael German (Brennan Center for Justice)\, Robie Madrigal (Pfau Library)\, Dr. Jeremy Murray (CSUSB History)\, Matt Patino (Crafton Hills College Adjunct Faculty)\, Dr. Mary Texeira (CSUSB Sociology). Click here to view previous  and upcoming panels in the Conversations on Race and Policing series (link).\n\n\nZoom Webinar Link Back to Events

SUMMARY:Culture Beyond Country: Strategies of Inclusion in the Global Iranian Diaspora
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nWith an estimated 5 to 8 million people spread across the globe\, the Iranian diaspora has become a visible and dynamic cultural presence—especially in North America and Europe. Faced with shallow or distorted portrayals\, diasporic Iranians have responded to persistent misrepresentations and marginalization by turning to culture as a deliberate strategy of inclusion. Reshaping how their stories are told\, community organizers\, artists\, and entrepreneurs are actively challenging public narratives\, asserting new cultural imaginaries\, and navigating the terms of inclusion and exclusion\, putting new visions of Iranian identity into the public eye. \nDrawing on transnational ethnographic fieldwork and over 125 semi-structured interviews conducted over the course of 16 years\, Culture Beyond Country offers the first comparative ethnography of these cultural strategies of inclusion\, examining the distinct practices and experiences of Iranians in three key cities of the diaspora\, Los Angeles\, Stockholm\, and Toronto. Attending to the institutional and ideological forces that come to bear on Iranian cultural organizers in these three diasporic locations\, Amy Malek examines how immigrants and their descendants negotiate belonging in response to various and shifting state approaches to cultural citizenship. The volume examines how state multicultural policy influences who is empowered to represent Iranian culture\, how local factors shape expressions of Iranian identity across the diaspora\, and how these representations are contested within Iranian communities. \nProviding a compelling transnational study of immigrant multiculturalism\, cultural citizenship\, and inclusion across the global Iranian diaspora\, Culture Beyond Country showcases not only how the process of representing Iranian culture in the diaspora generates competing views on what it means to be Iranian\, but also how competing modes of belonging subvert and reinforce existing power relations across local\, national\, and transnational scales. \nBio\nAmy Malek is a sociocultural anthropologist specializing in the intersections of migration\, citizenship\, and culture in the Iranian diaspora. She is Associate Professor of Anthropology and American Studies at William & Mary\, and former Endowed Chair and Director of the Iranian and Persian Gulf Studies program at Oklahoma State University. Her research and teaching interests include migration studies\, diaspora and transnationalism\, memory\, and visual culture\, with an emphasis on Iranian and Middle Eastern communities in North America and Europe. \nHer forthcoming book\, Culture Beyond Country: Strategies of Inclusion in the Global Iranian Diaspora\, is a transnational ethnography of the impacts of cultural policies on diasporic Iranian communities in Sweden\, Canada\, and the United States. She has drawn on her research in essays and in consultations or appearances for media outlets such as ABC Nightline\, BBC World News\, L.A. Times\, New York Times \, AJ+\, and Le Monde M. \n\n\n\nContact\n\n\nAlison Cummins\nac6544@princeton.edu
