Visiting Scholar Talk: David Hobbs
Visiting Scholar Talk: David Hobbs, “Whose Humanity Gets to be Public? W. E.B. Du Bois, Abram L. Harris, and Harper’s”
Recorded: Thursday, April 11, 2024 at the W. E. B. Du Bois Library, W. E. B. Du Bois Center
"The Public Humanities" has become central to recent arguments for the enduring value of studying history and philosophy, art and culture. Observing that many scholars are now publishing beyond peer-review, established Jonathans like Kramnick and Bates have celebrated what they take to be an expanding popular audience and what this “new” behavior says about the vitality of our work. This talk doesn't disagree, so much as seeks to unsettle the sense of novelty and to reveal some latent risks by turning to a similar moment in the early days of the Great Depression, when both W.E.B. Du Bois and his sometimes-protégé Abram L. Harris had articles in process at Harper’s Monthly Magazine that did not ultimately see print. Both articles were drawn from their authors’ academic research, and both were interested in economic exploitation as a global phenomenon and a vector for transnational and transracial solidarity - Du Bois sought to use Haile Selassie’s coronation as Emperor of Abyssinia as an occasion for considering the independent African republic’s vulnerability and what its protection might entail, while Harris wanted to explore “class struggle” via the uncomfortable integration efforts of some trade unions. While recovering what each article might have contributed to political discourse at the time, this talk is interested in what a failed demotic turn in a prior moment of downturn and austerity can tell us about the borders of "humanity" that matter to the public humanities, and how we might transgress them through poetry and the archive.
David B. Hobbs is Assistant Professor of English at the University of Lethbridge (Canada) where he works on 20th- and 21st-century poetry and poetics, with particular attention to intermedial aesthetics, transnationalism, Black study, and social movements. He has articles in Modernism/modernity, English Studies and elsewhere, and he writes frequently for The Nation and the Times Literary Supplement. He is currently finishing his first book, “What Can You Do Alone?”: Lyric Sociality and the Global Depression

At 1:59:13 "I'm sorry to say Constance herself committed suicide in 1969." The year of her death is correct, but she died of a heart attack.
Very interesting history ! I had only some knowledge of this topic.
It’s so cute when they’re newly hatched but Sooo so scary when they’re learning how to fly away from their High nests!
I never knew they could sleep and fly!! 😮
I didn’t know the car statistic! 😂
I remember when Annie took the food mid air!! It was either Grinnell or Alden. What a great video that was. So… I’ve been a subscriber for about 3 years for the Library but it’s not illuminated at night so when it’s darker, watching them is gone! How’s the clutch This year?
Well, Annie out west is Quite the mother! She’s had 3 mates since I met her! 🎉 Fortunately, they’ve all been great dads and food transporters for Annie. She’ll let them know if She’s not happy! Lol
Nice displays and info. I too follow Cal falcons.
WEB, Du Bois is the most overrated person in Black history. Booker T. Washington was the most famous black person in the world for 20 years after his death his name began to be on 300 black kids a year his book has never gone out of print. Mahatma Scandi made two articles discussing Booker T. Washington Booker T. Washington dined with Roosevelt. Roosevelt came to his college. President McKinley came to his college imagine being a black person and shaking hands with the president as a result of Booker T. Washington bringing the president he met all the presidents that were alive of his day.. Booker T. Washington has receipts. Booker T. Washington believed every day in the south, and his school didn’t get burnt down. Booker T. Washington personally saved a black man’s life from being lynched and hit him at Tuskegee university and lied to the people saying that black man wasn’t there in the newspapers it was reported that Booker T. Washington turned the man away, but Booker T. Washington couldn’t tell the truth because his school could get burnt down so he let the bad news go. Besides, the bad news made him more popular around white people. He was a cunning politician and civil rights worker he funded civil rights colleges he funded civil rights lawsuits he gave money to other black colleges, almost everything that people say about Booker T. Washington is false.
Very nice vid🥰

Budding process- A cell of the yeast is itself a plant... Now this one Cell First forms a bud on its outside and then its Nucleus is shared the both the cells and after sone time the new Cell get detached from the Parent Cell, this is how reproduction in yeast through the process of budding happens
lol it was more like a movie with ads 🥲
