Reconfiguring Diaspora: Jews and Polish Solidarność in the 1980s
2025-10-15 16:30 - 18:00 (America/New_York) | Center for Government and International Studies South Building, 1730 Cambridge Street, s354, Cambridge, MA, 02138, United States
This talk by the Oxford historian Katherine Lebow explores not only how Polish Jews shaped Solidarity, but how Solidarity shaped Polish Jews

The fact that Jews and those of Jewish descent played an outsized role in the democratic opposition in Poland in the 1980s, including the Solidarity (Solidarność) movement, has been little acknowledged or studied. This talk explores not only how Polish Jews shaped Solidarity, but how Solidarity shaped Polish Jews. Solidarity served as a space for the reinvention of Jewish identities and a crucial vector of relations with the global Jewish diaspora. Yet these relations were marked by tension and competing visions of diaspora, culminating in the controversies surrounding the 40th anniversary commemorations of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in 1983. The talk concludes by asking what the story of Solidarity and its Jewish supporters might tell us about broader reconfigurations of global Jewish politics in the 1980s.

Women, Power, and Justice: An Evening With Nadia Murad
2025-10-15 17:00 - 18:30 (America/New_York) | Alfred L. Morse Auditorium, 602 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, MA, 02215, United States
Please join us for a talk by Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, Nadia Murad.

This event is open to the BU Community. We welcome all students, faculty, staff, and alumni.

Nadia Murad is a Nobel Peace Prize Laureate, human rights activist, and survivor of the Yazidi genocide. In 2014, she was taken captive by the Islamic State (ISIS) during its genocidal campaign against the Yazidi people in Iraq. After enduring horrific abuse, she escaped captivity and has since become a leading advocate for survivors of genocide and sexual violence.

Through her courageous storytelling and tireless activism, Nadia has brought international attention to the plight of Yazidis and other communities affected by conflict-related sexual violence. She partnered with international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney to seek justice for ISIS’s crimes and founded Nadia’s Initiative, a nonprofit organization focused on rebuilding communities in crisis and supporting survivors of sexual violence.

Nadia is the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir The Last Girl: My Story of Captivity, and My Fight Against the Islamic State. She has addressed the United Nations, national governments, and international organizations, calling for justice, accountability, and comprehensive support for survivors. Awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for her unwavering commitment to ending sexual violence in conflict, Nadia continues to amplify the voices of survivors and advocate for policies that uphold human dignity, peace, and security.

Content advisory: This event may include discussions of sexual and gender-based violence, torture, enslavement, human trafficking, and mass atrocities.

Anthony Shaw, MPM, EdM

Student, PhD in Social Welfare
Gloria Twine Chisum Fellow

Anthony Shaw, EdM, MPM, is a doctoral student in Social Welfare at the University of Pennsylvania’s School of Social Policy and Practice. Shaw’s research sits at the intersection of Policy, Technology, and Race, exploring the relationships between structural racism, the under-representation of Black developers in AI design, and the portrayal of Blackness in the digital world. His work examines how representations and user experiences reinforce anti-Blackness and perpetuate the oppression of Black communities. His academic trajectory and research agenda have been shaped by his lived experiences growing up in North Philadelphia, where he witnessed firsthand the impact of disinvestment, poverty, and violence on marginalized communities.Specifically, Shaw’s work critically examines how Black males engage with AI and social media, how these engagements shape their behaviors, self-perceptions, and mental wellness, and the broader implications for social behavioral theory. By following this population, Shaw seeks to analyze the consequences of past policy decisions and their impact on the lived experiences of marginalized communities. One core question that anchors his scholarship is, “How do AI and social media shape and perpetuate narratives of violence, construct racialized identities, and reinforce systemic exclusion?” His broader research interests include algorithmic governance, digital ethics, and the evolving relationship between AI, policy-making, and structural inequality. Through his work, he seeks to uncover the systemic barriers that perpetuate racial and economic inequities while highlighting the potential for AI to be leveraged in service of social justice.His work highlights how the underrepresentation of Black developers in AI design results in algorithmic biases that reinforce racial stereotypes and contribute to the marginalization of Black communities. By examining the intersection of AI, racial bias, and technological exclusion, Shaw aims to bridge the gap between online interactions and real-world violence, ultimately contributing to AI-driven policy interventions that foster community resilience and equitable technology development.
Shaw holds a BA in Political Science from Temple University, a Master’s in School Leadership & Development from Harvard University’s Graduate School in Education, and a Master’s in Policy Management from Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy.

Innovation Across Borders: Technology, Culture, Policy, + Inclusive Futures

From Kyoto to the Caucasus: Transferring Inclusive Innovation from Japanese Subcultures to Georgia and Beyond

Innovation today is at a crossroads: while AI and emerging technologies promise transformation, innovation ecosystems often reinforce exclusion and technoableism. Japan offers a living laboratory for inclusive innovation. This research at Kyoto Institute of Technology introduces “strategic drifting”. and an adaptive design framework that integrates co-design, cultural values, and environmental sustainability to foster inclusive entrepreneurship. Fieldwork in Okinawa demonstrates how participatory innovation -from coral restoration led by individuals with cognitive differences to software co-design by neurodiverse teams – creates multidimensional value: economic, social, cultural, and ecological. Anchored in Japanese philosophies such as ikigai and minimalism, these insights reveal how culture and inclusion co-create systemic impact. The study further explores the transfer of these practices to Georgia, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia, outlining strategies for inclusive innovation funds, ecosystem mapping, and culturally resonant policy frameworks. This work invites policymakers, researchers, and practitioners to reconceptualize innovation not merely as technological progress but as a lever for social belonging, equity, and sustainable value creation.

It’s all fun & civics at Camp Congress for Girls Sacramento 2025. Young leaders study government, run for office & pass a bill.

Camp Congress for Girls Sacramento 2025 is a leadership program that introduces girls to U.S. politics. Camp begins with a lesson on the structure of our political system. Each girl will choose to run for a seat in the US House of Representatives, the US Senate or for the presidency. She will create her own campaign with a platform, campaign finance plan, and film a political ad. All campers will register to vote and then vote in an election. Once elected to Congress and sworn in, the newly installed members of Congress will learn how to introduce a bill, debate the merits of the bill, lobby fellow legislators, collaborate with the Executive branch and finally vote on the proposed bill. Camp will culminate with a ceremonial signing of the bill by our Ms. President. All participants will receive Certificate of Completion.
