SUMMARY:Lecture with Dr. Jacinda Tran\, Dartmouth College
DESCRIPTION:Join Dr. Jacinda Tran for a lecture and Q&A moderated by Bemis Center’s 2024–2025 Curator-in-Residence\, Kathy Cho\, on the “banalization of diaspora” and “militarized infrastructures of feeling.” This lecture will examine the affect of varied psychogeographies of global colonization and dispersal—as well as how some of the artists featured in the exhibition take up the tasks and technologies of representationability amid an increasingly fractured world. \nAdmission is free; RSVPs are encouraged. \nClick here for more information about the “Close to the Clouds: Encountering Digital Diasporas” exhibition. \nJacinda S. Tran (she/her) is an interdisciplinary scholar of visuality\, race\, space\, and empire.

Tran is currently a Visiting Lecturer in the Program of Women’s\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies at Dartmouth College\, teaching in Asian American History and Queer Studies. She holds a PhD in American Studies from Yale University with a graduate certificate in Women’s\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies\, and was most recently a Global American Studies Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard University’s Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History.

SUMMARY:Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: Alison Lubar
DESCRIPTION:The Nebraska Poetry Society is offering monthly Saturday morning online poetry workshops. Registration is required\, and registration information may be found on the Nebraska Poetry Society webpage. Free with annual membership; nominal fee for non-members. Students\, minors and others for whom the registration fee is prohibitive may request a free membership. \nAlthough one of the most famous writers of the sonnet was Shakespeare\, the form has existed since the 13th century. In this history-meets-poetry workshop\, participants will explore classic and contemporary sonnets\, from poets like Petrarch\, Edna St. Vincent Millay\, Terrance Hayes\, and Nicole Tallman. We’ll look at the way that poets use the sonnet form to address the issues of their time and how this “little song” has evolved over its long existence. Participants will walk away with a broad understanding of the Sonnet\, the way its conventions both draw on and continually inspire other forms of poetry\, and ways to try writing their own “little songs.”​ \nAlison Lubar is a queer biracial Nikkei poet and educator who teaches literature to teenagers\, writing to adults\, and yoga to all ages. They’re the author of two full-length poetry books\, The Other Tree\, winner of Harbor Editions’ 2023 Laureate Prize\, and METAMOURPHOSIS (fifth wheel press\, 2024)\, four chapbooks\, Philosophers Know Nothing About Love (Thirty West\, 2022)\, queer feast (Bottlecap Press\, 2022)\, sweet euphemism (Mouthfeel Press\, 2023)\, and It Skips a Generation (Stanchion\, 2023)\, and a forthcoming microchap\, American Kintsugi (Bull City Press\, 2026). Alison is also a board member for Philadelphia’s Blue Stoop.
