Gender Across Borders II: Research Subjects April 21-22nd, 2006 PDF Print E-mail

 

Our theme for this year's interdisciplinary and international graduate conference, "Research Subjects," takes seriously the subjection of bodies to research:  we are interested in ethical and contentious issues orbiting both subjects *of* research and subjects *as* researchers.  The conference took place at the University at Buffalo's North Campus on Friday, April 21 and Saturday, April 22, 2006.

Three poster-prizes were warded to outstanding poster displays in the exhibit accompanying the symposium.

A film screening and poetry reading, Obsidian Frames, featuring 13 filmmakers and the writing of Bhanu Kapil, closed our two day conference on Saturday night at Squeaky Wheel in downtown Buffalo at 7pm.

Film Screening: FINAL SOLUTION by Rakesh Sharma PDF Print E-mail
Tuesday, April 26, 2005
6-9pm
Room 112, Center for the Arts,
UB North Campus.
Free & Open to the Public. In a conundrum fuelled by fascist regimes and apathetic governments, Rakesh Sharma's film Final Solution is an attempt to chronicle the brutal events of a state-sponsored genocide that occurred in Gujarat, India in the year 2002. It is a study of the politics of hate. In 2002, India saw about 2,500 Moslems being brutally murdered, hundreds of women raped and more than 200,000 families left homeless. Right-wing Hindu fundamentalists argued that this bloodshed was necessary to retaliate against the equally brutal and senseless burning and killing of 58 Hindus on the Sabarmati Express train at Godhra, Gujarat on February 27, 2002. The film examines the aftermath of the deadly violence that followed this event between the months February 2002 - July 2003. Borrowing the chilling term Endöslung, meaning the systematic relocation and murders by the Nazis, for the title of his film, Rakesh Sharma seeks to remind that “those who forget history are condemned to relive it."
