Awarded along with Megan Twohey and Jodi Kantor of The New York Times\, the Pulitzer Prize committee recognized Farrow’s\, “explosive\, impactful journalism… spurring a worldwide reckoning about sexual abuse of women\,” and as the TIME tribute cited\, “Their hard work and impeccable journalism have changed attitudes\, behavior\, conversations\, norms\, laws and policies\, yielding enormous personal and public good.” \nBeyond his groundbreaking work with The New Yorker\, Farrow has been an anchor and reporter at MSNBC and NBC News\, and his writing has appeared in publications including The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.

SUMMARY:Distinguished Speaker Series ~ Angela Davis
DESCRIPTION:Angela Davis | Feb. 27 | Alumni Arena\nFree tickets will be available for graduate students starting on February 18th at the SBI Ticket Offices (221 Student Union and 135 Diefendorf Hall).  1 per UB ID. \n\n\nLegendary Human Rights Activist and Author \n\n\nUB’s 43rd Annual Martin Luther King\, Jr. Commemoration Keynote Speaker\n\n\nGraduate Student Choice Speaker\n\n\n\n\nMore About Angela Davis\n\n\nThrough her activism and scholarship over many decades\, Angela Davis\, PhD\, has been deeply involved in movements for social justice around the world. Her work as an educator – both at the university level and in the larger public sphere – has always emphasized the importance of building communities of struggle for economic\, racial and gender justice. Davis’ teaching career has taken her to San Francisco State University\, Mills College and UC Berkeley. She has also taught at UCLA\, Vassar\, Syracuse University\, the Claremont Colleges\, and Stanford University. At the University of California Santa Cruz she is Distinguished Professor Emerita of History of Consciousness – an interdisciplinary PhD program – and of Feminist Studies. \nDavis has lectured throughout the United States as well as in Europe\, Africa\, Asia\, Australia\, and the Caribbean. In recent years a persistent theme of her work has been the range of social problems associated with incarceration and the generalized criminalization of those communities that are most affected by poverty and racial discrimination. She draws upon her own experiences in the early seventies as a person who spent 18 months in jail and on trial\, after being placed on the FBI’s “Ten Most Wanted List.” She also has conducted extensive research on numerous issues related to race\, gender and imprisonment. \nDavis has authored numerous books including ““Abolition Democracy” and “Are Prisons Obsolete?” about the abolition of the prison industrial complex\, a new edition of “Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass\, and two collections of essays titled “The Meaning of Freedom” and “Freedom Is a Constant Struggle: Ferguson\, Palestine\, and the Foundations of a Movement.” \nDavis is a founding member of Critical Resistance\, a national organization dedicated to the dismantling of the prison industrial complex. Internationally\, she is affiliated with Sisters Inside\, an abolitionist organization based in Queensland\, Australia that works in solidarity with women in prison. Like many educators\, Davis is especially concerned with the general tendency to devote more resources and attention to the prison system than to educational institutions. Having helped to popularize the notion of a “prison industrial complex\,” she now urges her audiences to think seriously about the future possibility of a world without prisons and to help forge a 21st century abolitionist movement. \n\n\n\n\nFor source or more information\, please visit:\n\n\n\n\n   https://www.kepplerspeakers.com

SUMMARY:Distinguished Speaker Series ~ Joe Biden
DESCRIPTION:Joe Biden | Oct. 25 | Alumni Arena\nFree tickets available for graduate students October 10th at the SBI Ticket Offices (221 Student Union and 135 Diefendorf Hall).  1 per UB ID. \n\n\n47th Vice President of the United States (2009-17) \n\n\nUndergraduate Student Choice Speaker\n\n\n\n\nMore About Joe Biden\n\n\nAs a senator from Delaware for 36 years\, Biden was a leading architect of domestic policy on some of the most pressing issues facing the country. Then-Senator Biden served as chairman or ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee for 17 years\, and was a preeminent voice on criminal justice issues\, including authoring both the landmark 1994 Crime Act and the Violence Against Women Act. Biden has worked relentlessly since the passage of the Violence Against Women Act in 1994 to change the culture around domestic violence and sexual assault\, and protect and strengthen victims’ rights. As chairman or ranking member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for 12 years\, then-Senator Biden played a pivotal role in shaping U.S. foreign policy. He has been at the forefront of issues and legislation related to terrorism\, weapons of mass destruction\, post-Cold War Europe\, the Middle East and Southwest Asia. \nAs the 47th vice president of the United States\, Biden oversaw the implementation of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act\, which was integral to rescuing the economy from the brink of another Great Depression. The Recovery Act added 2 million jobs to the economy and made an unprecedented investment in America’s infrastructure. According to the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office\, under former Vice President Biden’s oversight\, more than $800 billion dollars were injected into the economy with less than two tenths of one percent waste\, fraud or abuse – making it one of the most efficient government programs in history. \nAs vice president\, Biden also chaired the Middle-Class Task Force\, an administration-wide effort to improve the everyday lives and livelihoods of working men and women\, and oversaw the administration’s Skills Initiative to improve federal workforce training programs. He authored “Ready to Work: Job-Driven Training and American Opportunity\,” a report to the president on how best to ensure American workers are trained for the jobs of the 21st century. \nBiden also led the administration’s efforts to implement meaningful reforms to reduce gun violence in this country\, which resulted in federal actions aimed at strengthening the background check system and addressing mental health issues linked to gun violence\, among others. \nIn January 2017\, President Obama awarded Biden the Presidential Medal of Freedom\, with Distinction — the highest civilian honor in the U.S. \nSince leaving the White House\, Biden continues his legacy of expanding opportunity for all with the creation of the Biden Foundation\, the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement at the University of Pennsylvania\, and the Biden Institute of Domestic Policy at the University of Delaware. Biden and his wife Dr. Jill Biden have also founded the Biden Cancer Initiative to end cancer as we know it\, and they continue their son Beau’s work protecting children from abuse with the Beau Biden Foundation for the Protection of Children. Vice President Biden is the author of the #1 New York Times Bestseller “Promise Me\, Dad: A Year of Hope\, Hardship\, and Purpose” a memoir released in 2017. \nBiden is an alumnus of the University of Delaware\, Class of 1965. \n\n\n\n\nFor source or more information\, please visit:\n\n\n\n\n   CAA Speakers

SUMMARY:Gender Institute presents Amber Jamilla Musser
DESCRIPTION:The UB Gender Institute and the HI Queer Studies Research Workshop are pleased to announce Amber Jamilla Musser \n“Working Around the Incommensurate: Brown Jouissance and Kara Walker’s A Subtlety” \nThursday April 19.\n3:30pm\n120 Clemens Hall\, UB North campus \nhttp://www.buffalo.edu/genderin/news-and-events/upcoming_events/featured-events.html \nAbout Amber Jamilla Musser: \nAmber Jamilla Musser is an Associate Professor or Women\, Gender and Sexuality Studies at Washington University in St. Louis. Her research is at the intersection of race\, gender\, and sexuality studies. Her monograph\, Sensational Flesh: Race\, Power\, and Masochism (NYU Press\, 2014) uses masochism as a lens to theorize different felt relationships to power. The book beings together debates on masochism within feminism\, discussions of masochism from psychoanalysis and critiques of colonialism\, literary presentations of masochism\, and performance and visual art that draws on masochism’s repertoire in order to make an argument about the relationship between sensation and knowledge production and the racialization of our current episteme of sexuality. Her current research project\, “Brown Jouissance: Feminine Imaginings” uses women of color’s aesthetic labors to re-imagine epistemologies of sexuality so that they center brown femininity. \nDr. Musser has also published widely on race and critical theory\, queer femininities and race\, race and sexuality\, and queer of color critique. She has an MSt in Women’s Studies from Oxford University and received her PhD in History of Science from Harvard University. She has previously taught gender studies at New York University and Brown University. At Washington University she teaches “Sexuality and the State\,” “Advanced Queer Theory: Intimacies of Precarity\,” “The Politics of Pleasure\,” “Queer of Color Critique: Sense and Sexuality\,” and “Feminist Theory.”

SUMMARY:Distinguished Speaker Series ~ James Balog
DESCRIPTION:James Balog | Apr. 12\, 2018\n\n\nGlobal Expert on Climate Change and Founder of the Extreme Ice Survey (EIS) \n\n\n\nMore About James Balog\n\n\nFor decades\, photographer James Balog has broken new conceptual and artistic ground on one of the most important issues of our era: human modification of our planet’s natural systems. An avid mountaineer with a graduate degree in geography and geomorphology\, Balog is equally at home on a Himalayan peak or a whitewater river\, the African savannah or polar icecaps. Balog has become a global spokesman on the subject of climate change and human impact on the environment. In 2007\, he founded the Extreme Ice Survey (EIS)\, the most wide-ranging\, ground-based\, photographic study of glaciers ever conducted; it integrates art and science giving a “visual voice” to the planet’s changing ecosystems. As a consequence of this historic work\, in 2009\, he served as a U.S./NASA representative at the United Nations Conference on Climate Change (COP 15) in Copenhagen. In 2015\, at COP 21 in Paris\, he made numerous presentations on behalf of the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC)\, The United Nations Foundation and Solutions COP 21 at the Grand Palais. \nBalog and the EIS team were featured in the 2012 internationally acclaimed\, award–winning documentary “Chasing Ice” and in the 2009 PBS “NOVA” special “Extreme Ice.” “Chasing Ice” won an Emmy Award in 2014 and was short-listed for an Oscar. It has been screened at the White House\, in the U.S. Congress\, in the U.K. House of Commons and at the United Nations. It has been the subject of features on “NBC Nightly News\,” “ABC Nightline\,” “The Late Show with David Letterman\,” PBS’s “Moyers & Company\,” and “Real Time with Bill Maher.” National Geographic showcased the Extreme Ice Survey in 2007\, 2010 and 2013. \nBalog has given multimedia presentations about the project at TED and at dozens of major institutions including the White House\, the U.S. Congress\, NASA\, the Environmental Protection Agency\, Apple\, Swarovski\, the 2010 Winter Olympics\, North Face\, Qualcomm\, the Bloomberg New Energy Financial Summit\, Cornell University and Duke University.
