Lectures, Etc.
MEXICO to MADISON: Unions Under Attack and Fighting Back!
Public Lectures with Pipino Cuevas Velázquez (National Leader, Sindicato Mexicano de Electricistas [SME])
The Mexican government has launched a vicious attack against the independent labor movement in Mexico. The Sindicato Mexicano de Electricistas (SME) is a major target because it led the fight against privatization of the electrical power company in the Mexico City area. In order to destroy the union, the Mexican government liquidated the power company, firing some 44,000 union workers. SME members continue to fight for their union and their jobs in the streets, in the Mexican Congress, and in the courts. Over a year later, some 16,000 workers continue to refuse severance and have won some victories in their tough fight to regain recognition for their union and reinstatement to their jobs.
Pipino Cuevas Velázquez will be joined by local leaders of public sector unions from around the US and Pittsburgh who are fighting against cuts and the attack on fundamental labor rights.

Film: They Killed Sister Dorothy (Director Daniel Junge)
Description: “They Killed Sister Dorothy” chronicles the legal proceedings that followed the execution-style murder of a Catholic nun and activist. At age 73, Sister Dorothy Stang had lived in Brazil for 30 years, collaborating with the government to establish sustainable development in a remote corner of the Amazon. But along the way, she had made enemies among the ranchers who stood to benefit from the exploitation of the rainforest and its natural resources. In 2005, she was shot six times at point-blank range. Two men were arrested for the killing, but it quickly became clear that her death was part of a much greater conspiracy.
Archival footage featuring the so-called “Angel of the Amazon” supplements interviews with her brother and best friend, who are seeking justice in the case. But when Colorado-based filmmaker Daniel Junge and his crew gain access to the courtroom proceedings, it is the shockingly candid encounters they have with the men who confessed, the ranchers accused of hiring them, the defense lawyers and a federal prosecutor that really shed light on the circumstances of Sister Dorothy's death - as well as on the struggle over the future of the rainforest within a dangerously corrupt system often compared to the Wild West.
The director's credits include numerous award-winning PBS-aired documentaries like “Chiefs,” which follows Wyoming Indian High School's basketball team, and “Iron Ladies of Liberia (SDFF 30),” about Africa's first elected female president. Coproduced by Academy Award-winner Nigel Noble, “They Killed Sister Dorothy” also features a score by Pedro Bromfman, whose latest project, “Tropa de Elite,” won a Golden Bear at the 2008 Berlin Film Festival.

American Ethnological Society (AES) and the Society for Urban, National and Transnational/Global Anthropology (SUNTA) Spring Conference
After more than three decades of neoliberal policies that largely redistributed wealth from poor to rich, and from south to north, the current Great Global Recession is both reinforcing existing social, cultural, and political inequalities, such as those of race, class and gender, and creating new forms of marginality and domains of power. These fault lines have been thrown into sharp relief by a string of environmental disasters (so-called natural disasters, and more purely technological disasters), each with catastrophic human, ecological, and social consequences, just as they have been intensified by warfare and state responses to and discourses about “security.” Increasingly, close relationships between governments and corporations lead to privatized, militarized and corporatized responses, which often produce a “second disaster.” These processes create new forms of difference—fragmentation, inequality, marginality, identity, cultural particularism. At the same time, they create the conditions for new forms of connection--solidarity, alliance, and political engagement--that may bridge lines of demarcation and imagine alternative political, economic, and cultural futures.
Dates: April 17-21, 2011
Location: San Juan, Puerto Rico

2nd International Symposium of the Research Network for Latin America
The Research Network for Latin America is a cooperation of historical, ethnological and sociological institutes of the German Universities of Cologne, Bielefeld and Bonn and two individual scientists from Minster and Hanover. Within an interdisciplinary framework, scientists of the humanities and social sciences investigate the concepts Ethnicity, Citizenship and Belonging to enhance the scientific understanding of quotidian economic, political and social exclusions and inequalities in Latin America. Ethnicity, Citizenship and Belonging are understood as dynamic concepts that help to understand and to analyse the contextual and historically specific manifestations of boundaries and perceptions of order in Latin America.

Dates: September 12-14, 2011
Location: University of Cologne, Germany

Based in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala, this six-week program (6 undergraduate credits in anthropology ) will provide students with a comprehensive overview of Mayan indigenous life in Guatemala, past and present, including opportunities for individual and group research through participant observation, attendance at cultural events, lectures on selected topics, and excursions to museums and major archaeological sites, dating from the earliest days of the Olmec/Maya transition to the contact-era capitals that were toppled by the Spanish conquistadors.

Students live with Guatemalan families. Course instruction is in English, but incorporates two weeks of individualized one-on-one tutoring in Spanish.

Interethnic relations between the Maya and their non-indigenous Ladino neighbors will be a special focus of the program.

School of Experimental Language Training, Mexico 2011
The Open School of Ethnography & Anthropology (OSEA) offers a Teaching English Service Learning Program. This program allows students to gain 8 credits of service learning in a multi-faceted Community Action Research project. We ask your assistance in letting your students, friends, and interested colleagues know about this exciting new opportunity.
Students learn the conceptual foundation and practices of social based methodologies of language teaching. As well, students begin a process of learning Maya and local cultural traditions as a resource to be used in the teaching English classroom.
Students become Teachers who apply second language acquisition and anthropological theory learned in the classroom to create an English-language program for the residents of Pisté, México. The challenge is for the English teachers to design and employ activities and lessons that valorize Maya language, customs and history in the process of teaching English. Teachers become students of the Maya participants who are learning English.
Students become Ethnographers who use fieldwork methods to assess the ongoing learning process of the classroom. Ethnographer-Teachers use visual and audio-visual methods to document and analyze the transcultural dynamics of bilingual education in second language acquisition.
The SELT Project was initiated in 1997 as a 3 year program. In 2010 OSEA inaugurated a renewed and updated Teaching English Service Learning Program http://www.osea-cite.org/program/selt_overview.php
