SUMMARY:Fall 2024 Anti-Hate Series Session 2
DESCRIPTION:Fall 2024 Anti-Hate Series\nCarnegie Mellon University\nOffice of Vice Provost for Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion\nChief Diversity Officer \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbleism Keynote\nfeaturing renowned disability scholar and CMU alumnus\, Dr. Amanda Kraus\nNovember 13th | 5:00-6:15pm\nSimmons A \nThe second anti-hate series session from the Office of the Vice Provost for Diversity\, Equity\, and Inclusion & Chief Diversity Officer examines how ableism appears in daily interactions and through systemic barriers–from subtle biases to broader societal challenges. Dr. Amanda Kraus\, of the University of Arizona\, will examine the impact of ableism on individuals and communities to raise awareness and foster understanding. Participants will learn to recognize and challenge ableist attitudes and practices to foster inclusivity and accessibility. The session will also emphasize the importance of allyship and individual advocacy for the rights\, dignity and inclusion of people with disabilities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\nAmanda Kraus | Associate Professor of Practice\, Educational Policy Studies and Practice\nAssistant Vice President for Campus Life\nExecutive Director for Disability Resources and Chief Accessibility Officer \nOriginally from the suburbs of New York City\, Dr. Amanda Kraus has lived in Tucson\, AZ and worked at the University of Arizona (UA) for over twenty years. Dr.  Kraus currently serves as Assistant Vice President for Campus and Executive Director of UA’s Disability Resource Center. One the largest in the nation\, the Disability Resource Center is an international model of progressive service delivery\, uniquely positioned to approach campus access systemically.  Through strategic outreach\, the goal is to design campus environments and experiences to be usable and welcoming for a diverse range of individuals\, thereby reducing the need for individual accommodations or modifications.  Dr. Kraus is highly involved in collaborative efforts with University personnel to foster the development of a seamlessly accessible campus environment and infuse disability into the campus community.\nAs Associate Professor of Practice in the Center for the Study of Higher Education at the UA\, Dr. Kraus coordinates the M.A. program and instructs courses on student services and disability in higher education.  Borrowing from disability studies\, Dr. Kraus studies disability identity\, disability dynamics in the student veteran community\, and disability-related biases and microaggressions. Through her research and teaching\, she challenges the dominant deficit or tragedy narrative on disability and promotes models and tools to increase access and equity and ultimately reframe concepts of difference in higher education. \nDr. Kraus is President of the Association of Higher Education and Disability (AHEAD) and previously chaired its standing committee for diversity. She has had the privilege of delivering keynote addresses and facilitating workshops at institutions such as Singapore Management University\, Duke University\, Wake Forest University\, the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) and was recently invited to join a delegation convened by the US Department of State to engage in dialogue on disability access in education and employment in Beijing\, China and again in Washington\, D.C. \nDr. Kraus completed her B.A. at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh\, PA and earned her M.A. and Ph. D. in Higher Education from the University of Arizona (UA).

SUMMARY:"The United States and World Fascism: Human Rights from the Spanish Civil War to Nuremberg and Beyond"
DESCRIPTION:The following workshop is open to CMU faculty\, students and community members.\nTHIS IS AN IN PERSON EVENT!\nCarnegie Mellon University\nHamerschlag Hall\, Hamerschlag Dr\, Pittsburgh\, PA 15213\nROOM #B131\n\n\nThe United States and World Fascism: Human Rights from the Spanish Civil War to Nuremberg and Beyond\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis workshop\, offered by the Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives (ALBA)\, introduces a carefully curated set of compelling primary sources allowing teachers to develop a history-based curriculum about human rights and world fascism\, starting with the experience of antifascist US volunteers in the Spanish Civil War (1936-39)\, through World War II and the Cold War to the present day. ALBA’s workshops encourage teachers and students to focus on ten essential questions: Why should we care about events that happen far away\, or that happened a long time ago? How do we decide who is on the right side of an armed conflict? When do we stand up for what we believe in? What are our obligations in the face of injustice? How do we resolve competing loyalties? When is it right\, or necessary\, for a powerful country like the US to intervene in a conflict going on elsewhere? How do images and texts shape our view of the world—and how can we use them to shape others’ views? How can we understand people and events of the past in their context? When—and how—is it appropriate to judge people and events in the past? When do historical analogies apply? And what does fascism look like today? \n\nSebastiaan Faber is chair of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade Archives\, an educational nonprofit in New York. A professor of Hispanic Studies at Oberlin College\, he regularly contributes to US and Spanish media. His most recent book is Exhuming Franco: Spain’s Second Transition (Vanderbilt).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nsebastiaanfaber.com\n@sebasfaber\n\n\nNew book: Franco desenterrado.
