SUMMARY:CENSORSHIP and related acts of authoritarian desperation
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to register for an upcoming public conversation hosted by the DePaul Humanities Center as part of this year’s Present Tense Series. \nOn Thursday\, February 26\, we will host CENSORSHIP\, a conversation exploring censorship as a persistent issue affecting culture\, politics\, academic discourse\, and public expression. This event is presented by the DHC as part of DePaul’s “Present TENSE” series\, which provides space to think about and talk through political and social changes against the backdrop of history. \nSpeakers include: \nMichael Berry\nUCLA professor specializing in contemporary Chinese literature\, film\, and cultural politics in a global context. \nSarah Schulman\nNorthwestern professor\, writer\, and cultural critic\, whose work examines power\, scapegoating\, and public memory. \nBrenda Azucena Muñoz Yáñez\nA communication researcher at Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila focused on digital media and cultural analysis. \nThe Present Tense Series highlights conversations that address urgent questions of our moment and explores how the humanities help us understand and respond to them. This event continues that mission by asking who controls speech\, whose voices are silenced\, and why censorship matters now.
