SUMMARY:Lunch Talk: The Detainees of Crystal City
DESCRIPTION:This year\, President Trump invoked The Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to justify mass deportations. The last time the US used this wartime law was after entering World War II. While people are familiar with Japanese American internment—most don’t know the US also rounded up Germans\, Japanese\, and Italians living in Latin America. The Roosevelt Administration confiscated their passports\, illegally brought them to the US\, and interned them in the same camps using the Alien Enemies Act. The goal? To exchange them for US prisoners of war. The biggest and the last camp to close was in Crystal City\, Texas. \nJoin JoAnn DeLuna (Journalism) in conversation with Christina Lee (Spanish and Portuguese; Humanities Council) for this interdisciplinary lunch talk\, presented by the Humanities Council’s Program in Journalism. The pair will discuss DeLuna’s recent Radio Diaries story\, where she interviewed some of the last surviving internees from Latin America about their astonishing journeys. \nLunch talks are open to University faculty\, students\, and staff. Space is limited. RSVP required here. \n*Please note\, RSVP form requires University log-in credentials

SUMMARY:Lunch Talk: Reporting and Writing on Mental Illness
DESCRIPTION:In the name of speaking truth to power\, journalists have long contributed to harmful narratives about mental health conditions and the people who seek and provide care for them. But times have changed\, and in recent years there has been a general shift in mental health journalism\, fueled by the arrival of a new generation of reporters who are much more comfortable with the realities of mental illness. \nEven with more and better coverage\, some thorny questions remain: How do you report and write on mental illness with care and compassion while also maintaining personal boundaries and professional distance? And where is the line between solutions journalism and advocacy? \nJoin Judith Warner (Journalism) in conversation with Erik Nook (Psychology) for this interdisciplinary lunch talk\, presented by the Humanities Council’s Program in Journalism. These talks offer insight into the work of our distinguished visiting journalists\, as they discuss their work and pressing issues of the day with University faculty from across disciplines. \n\n\nLunch talks are open to University faculty\, students\, and staff. Space is limited. RSVP required here.  \n*Please note\, RSVP form requires University log-in credentials

SUMMARY:Novel Ecologies: Nature Remade and the Illusions of Tech
DESCRIPTION:In this event\, Allison Carruth will speak about her new book\, Novel Ecologies\, in conversation with Vinson Cunningham. \nNovel Ecologies investigates a distinctly California paradigm shaped by the tech industry—what Allison Carruth terms Nature Remade. Through three case studies—synthetic wildlife\, the digital cloud and space colonization—the book challenges the conviction that climate change and other environmental crises must be met with planetary-scale technological intervention. Against the world-building gambits of Google\, Open AI\, SpaceX and a host of start-ups\, Carruth marshals the work of writers and artists who imagine provisionally hopeful futures while refusing to forget histories of power and exploitation that have made the world what it is. \nSpeakers \nAllison Carruth is professor in the Effron Center for the Study of America and High Meadows Environmental Institute at Princeton University\, where she directs the Program in Environmental Studies and leads the environmental media and climate storytelling studio Blue Lab. From 2016-2020\, she was the founding director of UCLA’s Laboratory for Environmental Narrative Strategies (LENS). While leading LENS\, she was an executive producer of an environmental media collaboration featuring essays and documentary films developed in partnership with and distributed by KCET/PBS SoCal. She is the previous author of Global Appetites: American Power and the Literature of Food. \nVinson Cunningham is a Visiting Lecturer in the Humanities Council\, a McGraw Professor of Writing in the Program in Journalism\, and a staff writer at The New Yorker. He was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for criticism in 2024 and was awarded the George Jean Nathan Award for Dramatic Criticism for 2021-2022. In 2020\, he was a finalist for a National Magazine Award for his Profile of the comedian Tracy Morgan. He teaches at the Yale School of Art and Columbia University’s School of the Arts\, and is a co-host of Critics at Large\, The New Yorker’s weekly podcast about culture and the arts. His début novel\, Great Expectations\, came out in 2024.

SUMMARY:Novel Ecologies: Nature Remade and the Illusions of Tech
DESCRIPTION:Tracing the convergence of ecology and engineering over the last three decades\, this book pinpoints a new environmental paradigm that the author calls Nature Remade. \nAllison Carruth’s Novel Ecologies shows how the tech industry has taken up the wilderness mythologies that shaped one strain of American environmentalism over the last century. Calling this twenty-first-century environmental imagination Nature Remade\, Carruth describes a distinctly West Coast framework that is at once nostalgic and futuristic. Through three case studies (synthetic wildlife\, the digital cloud\, and space colonization)\, the book shows Nature Remade to be a quasi-religious belief in venture capitalism and big tech. This paradigm thus imagines a future in which species\, ecosystems\, and entire planets are re-generated and re-created through engineering. \nNovel Ecologies challenges the conviction that climate change and other environmental crises must be met with ever larger-scale forms of technological intervention. Against the new worlds conjured by Google\, Meta\, Open AI\, Amazon\, SpaceX\, and a host of lesser-known start-ups\, Carruth marshals writers and artists who imagine provisionally hopeful environmental futures while refusing to forget the histories that have made the world what it is. On this track of the book\, Carruth discusses the works of Octavia Butler\, Jennifer Egan\, Ruth Ozeki\, Tracy K. Smith\, Jeff VanderMeer\, and and many more. Their novels\, poems\, installation artworks\, and expressive media offer a speculative world built on livable communities rather than engineered lifeforms. \nAllison Carruth is professor in the Effron Center for the Study of America and High Meadows Environmental Institute at Princeton University. She is the cofounder and faculty director of Blue Lab\, an environmental media\, art\, and research group at Princeton. Since 2017\, she has produced original environmental documentaries and multimedia story series in collaboration with filmmakers\, journalists\, artists and others. She is the author of Global Appetites: American Power and the Literature of Food and coauthor with Amy L. Tigner of Literature and Food Studies. Eliza Griswold is the author of six books of poetry and nonfiction\, most recently Circle of Hope: A Reckoning with Love\, Power\, and Justice in an American Church.  Her book Amity and Prosperity: One Family and the Fracturing of America was awarded the 2019 Pulitzer Prize in General Nonfiction. She writes for The New Yorker\, and is the Ferris Professor and Director of the Program in Journalism at Princeton University.

SUMMARY:Lunch Talk: Writing from the Podium
DESCRIPTION:So much of the writing we hold in high esteem\, especially in the Anglophone world\, is more or less directly descended from public speech—developed out loud and for the purpose of persuading (and\, just as importantly\, entertaining) an audience. From the essay to the pamphlet\, the op-ed to the “feature” and the critical review\, our nonfiction tradition has drawn from the techniques and attitudes of oratory\, tending to be coaxing and argumentative\, urgent and (often irritatingly) insistent. The implications of this heritage can be found in the sentences\, styles\, and voices of writers and journalists such as Ralph Waldo Emerson\, James Baldwin\, Joan Didion\, Toni Morrison\, and Zadie Smith. Vinson Cunningham (Journalism) will be in conversation with Professor Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor (African American Studies)\, to discuss the relationship between oratory and nonfiction prose\, and to share some techniques for making this correspondence pay dividends on the page. \nLunch talks are open to University faculty\, students\, and staff. Space is limited. RSVP required here. \n\nThe Humanities Council’s Program in Journalism invites faculty\, graduate students and staff to participate in its spring lunchtime talk series\, where distinguished visiting journalists and writers discuss their work and pressing issues of the day with University faculty from a variety of disciplines. \nThese events—typically informal discussions of recent writing —offer intimate looks inside the work of colleagues and an opportunity for dialog across disciplines. Lunch will be provided.

SUMMARY:Lunch Talk: Uncovering corruption in the 2020s
DESCRIPTION:Investigative reporting has always been linked to the belief that shining sunlight on wrongdoing will lead to positive change. But in an increasingly relativist culture where shame is in short supply\, how do we practice journalism that undergirds\, rather than undermines the truth? Andrea Bernstein (Journalism) will be in conversation with Razia Iqbal (SPIA). They will also discuss the January 6 pardons\, and the journalistic and legal work done to report on the truth\, and where journalists go from here. \nLunch talks are open to University faculty\, students\, and staff.

SUMMARY:Great Expectations: A Novel
DESCRIPTION:Vinson Cunningham in Conversation with A.M. Homes \nA historic presidential campaign changes the trajectory of a young Black man’s life in this “coming of age story that captures the soul of America” (The Washington Post)\, the debut novel from The New Yorker staff writer and Pulitzer Prize finalist Vinson Cunningham. \nA BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: The New York Times Book Review\, The Washington Post\, NPR\, Los Angeles Times\, The Boston Globe\, Town & Country\, Publishers Weekly\, Kirkus Reviews\, Electric Lit\, Current\, WBEZ \nWhen David first hears the Senator from Illinois speak\, he feels deep ambivalence. Intrigued by the Senator’s idealistic rhetoric\, David also wonders how he’ll balance the fervent belief and inevitable compromises it will take to become the United States’ first Black president. \nGreat Expectations is about David’s eighteen months working for the Senator’s presidential campaign. Along the way David meets a myriad of people who raise a set of questions—questions of history\, art\, race\, religion\, and fatherhood—that force David to look at his own life anew and come to terms with his identity as a young Black man and father in America. \nMeditating on politics and politicians\, religion and preachers\, fathers and family\, Great Expectations is both an emotionally resonant coming-of-age story and a rich novel of ideas\, marking the arrival of a major new writer. \nVinson Cunningham is a staff writer and critic at The New Yorker and a Pulitzer Prize Finalist. He co-hosts the podcast “Critics at Large” and his writing has appeared in The New York Times Magazine\, The New York Times Book Review\, The Fader\, Vulture\, The Awl\, and McSweeney’s. A former staffer on Barack Obama’s first presidential campaign and in his White House\, Cunningham has taught at Sarah Lawrence College\, the Yale School of Art\, and Columbia University’s School of the Arts.  A.M. Homes’ most recent book is The Unfolding. Her many previous works include This Book Will Save Your Life\, winner of the 2013 Orange/Women’s Prize for Fiction\, the short-story collection Days of Awe\, and the bestselling memoir\, The Mistress’s Daughter.  She is a Professor in the Lewis Center for the Arts’ Program in Creative Writing. \nThis event is cosponsored by the Program in Journalism\, the Humanities Council\, and Labyrinth Books.

SUMMARY:Lunch Talk - An Extraordinary Time For Journalism In America
DESCRIPTION:Given how diverse and divided our country is\, there’s perhaps never been a more challenging time for journalists to get it right\, find the truth\, and uphold our responsibilities in our democracy. I’ll discuss how I see the “state of the race” days before Election Day. I’ll talk about how this reminds me so much of 2008 and the historic Obama run for the White House. I covered the Romney\, Clinton\, and Obama/Biden campaigns. And finally\, I’ll talk about how concerned I am about whether there will be a peaceful transfer of power. \nFor the past few decades\, Ron Allen has traveled the country and the world reporting stories of national interest\, most recently on the platforms of NBC News. Tera Hunter is the Department Chair of African American Studies & Edwards Professor of American History. She is a scholar of labor\, gender\, race\, and Southern history in the 19th and 20th centuries. \nRegistration for this event is now closed.

DESCRIPTION:Join the Humanities Council at Princeton University for a kick-off event featuring a wide-ranging and interdisciplinary conversation about central issues in our research\, teaching\, and intellectual life. \nThis year’s speakers\, distinguished Princeton scholars whose work represents different approaches and historical periods\, will participate in a panel discussion on the theme “Knowledge and Action.” In A Letter to My Nephew (1962)\, James Baldwin wrote: “[P]eople find it very difficult to act on what they know.  To act is to be committed and to be committed is to be in danger.” Taking these words as a point of departure\, the Colloquium ponders the role that knowing and acting play in our democracy in this election. The conversation will be moderated by Council Chair Esther Schor (English). \nSpeakers: \n\nYelena Baraz (Classics; Society of Fellows)\, “Saving Persephone: Secondary Trauma and Bystander Intervention in Ovid’s Metamorphoses”\nEliza Griswold (Journalism)\, “A Legacy in Action: Baldwin’s Influence in Contemporary Politics”\nJan-Werner Müller (Politics)\, “The Will Not to Know: Varieties of Ignorance and the Rise of Autocracy in Our Time”\nKeeanga-Yamahtta Taylor (African American Studies)\, “Making America What America Must Become: Confronting Amnesia and Innocence after Baldwin”\n\nOpen to the University community.
