SUMMARY:Newshawks in Berlin: The Associated Press and Nazi Germany
DESCRIPTION:After the Nazis came to power in Germany in 1933\, the Associated Press (AP) brought news about life under the Third Reich to tens of millions of American readers. The AP was America’s most important source for foreign news but to continue reporting under the Nazi regime the agency made both journalistic and moral compromises. Its reporters and photographers in Berlin endured onerous censorship\, complied with anti-Semitic edicts\, and faced accusations of spreading pro-Nazi propaganda. Yet despite restrictions\, pressures\, and concessions\, AP’s Berlin “newshawks” provided more than a thousand U.S. newspapers with extensive coverage of the Nazi campaigns to conquer Europe and annihilate the continent’s Jews. Newshawks in Berlin reveals how the Associated Press covered Nazi Germany from its earliest days through the aftermath of World War II. Larry Heinzerling and Randy Herschaft accessed previously classified government documents; plumbed diary entries\, letters\, and memos; and reviewed thousands of published stories and photos to examine what the AP reported and what it left out. Their research uncovers fierce internal debates about how to report in a dictatorship\, and it reveals decisions that sometimes prioritized business ambitions over journalistic ethics. The book also documents the AP’s coverage of the Holocaust and its unveiling. Featuring comprehensive research and a memorable cast of characters\, this book illuminates how the dilemmas of reporting on Nazi Germany remain familiar for journalists reporting on authoritarian regimes today.

SUMMARY:The Architecture of Urbanity: Designing for Nature\, Culture\, and Joy
DESCRIPTION:In The Architecture of Urbanity (Princeton University Press\, 2024) leading architect Vishaan Chakrabarti asks\, how can housing design be part of the solution to our global problems rather than exacerbate our existing challenges? He argues that “connective design”— a conscious attempt by a designer to forge deeper bonds across society at every scale—can help heal some of our larger social issues like global warming\, social and racial division\, the geography of rising fascism\, and land use battles.

SUMMARY:Elon Magazine: Anthropology\, Satire\, and Collaborative Hallucination with Sentient Machines
DESCRIPTION:This presentation explores Elon Magazine\, a work of design anthropology that uses parody to explore the celebrity and cultural milieu of Elon Musk. While the magazine is comprised of writing based on research and fieldwork\, many of the visuals were produced via extensive collaboration with the generative artificial intelligence model\, Midjourney. The talk will bring this project into dialogue with Salter and Saunier’s recent work (2023) on material encounters between humans and sentient machines. It will also include an interactive activity exploring human-AI collaboration. Dr. Campbell and his collaborators describe Elon as a “hype(r)ethnography of brometheanism in the time mass-extinction.” The lecture sets the stage for a lively discussion about design anthropology\, fame\, and artificial intelligence.

SUMMARY:Kindertransport Commemoration
DESCRIPTION:The rescue network known as the Kindertransport saved the lives of nearly 10\,000 children between the years of 1938 and 1940 by transporting them from Nazi Germany to England. This year marks the 85th anniversary of the Kindertransport. To commemorate the arrival of the first Kindertransport in England on December 2\, 1938\, the Museum and the Kindertransport Association present a screening of the short films 256\,000 Miles from Home and Dreyfus Drei. 256\,000 Miles from Home follows four Kindertransport survivors as they retrace the route they took from their homelands to England and Dreyfus Drei tells the story of Australian Jewish artist Ella Dreyfus and her quest to unearth her family’s lost Holocaust history. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with Dreyfus; Melissa Hacker\, Executive Director of the KTA and director of 256\,000 Miles from Home; Ilse Melamid\, Kindertransport survivor; and Eva Yachnes\, Kindertransport survivor. The program will be moderated by Dr. Eva Fogelman\, renowned psychologist and author of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated book Conscience and Courage: Rescuers of Jews During the Holocaust.

SUMMARY:“Blind Spot” Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Blind Spot is the first film to document both the antisemitism that existed on American campuses long before October 7 and how it led to the explosion of virulent and often violent campus antisemitism after October 7. A modern-day civil rights story told in the inspiring words and voices of more than two dozen students who’ve experienced and fought against this hatred on the front lines at more than a dozen schools across America\, Blind Spot bears witness to their bravery in the face of extreme hostility\, indifference\, and efforts to silence them and erase their Jewish identity while too many school administrators fail to take action. Joining and supporting the students in the film are more than two dozen professionals\, including leading activist lawyers\, elected officials from both parties\, faculty\, campus Chabad and Hillel directors and other Jewish community leaders\, college administrators\, and journalists/authors\, who express their views and prescriptions for change.

SUMMARY:Opening Doors: The Unlikely Alliance Between the Irish and the Jews in America
DESCRIPTION:Popular belief holds that the various ethnic groups that emigrated to the United States at the turn of the twentieth century regarded one another with open hostility\, fiercely competing for limited resources and even coming to blows in the crowded neighborhoods of major cities. In Opening Doors\,Hasia R. Diner\, one of the world’s preeminent historians of immigration\, tells a very different story; far from confrontational\, the prevailing relationships between Jewish and Irish Americans were overwhelmingly cooperative\, and the two groups were dependent upon one another to secure stable and upwardly mobile lives in their new home. The Irish had emigrated to American cities en masse a generation before the first major wave of Jewish immigrants arrived\, and had already entrenched themselves in positions of influence in urban governments\, public education\, and the labor movement. Jewish newcomers recognized the value of aligning themselves with another group of religious outsiders who were able to stand up and demand rights and respect despite widespread discrimination from the Protestant establishment\, and the Irish realized that they could protect their political influence by mentoring their new neighbors in the intricacies of American life. Opening Doors draws from a deep well of historical sources to show how Irish and Jewish Americans became steadfast allies in classrooms\, picket lines\, and political machines\, and ultimately helped one another become key power players in shaping America’s future.
