Landscapes of Migration, Incarceration and Resistance Speaker Series

Explorations in Arts + Design at Berkeley
UC Berkeley students may register in HUM 20
Fridays 11:30 am to 1 pm
Osher Theater, BAMPFA
August 26, 2022 – December 9, 2022
Co-sponsored by Berkeley Arts + Design and Future Histories Lab

Come in person to hear artists, activists and scholars explore themes of exclusion, belonging, and resistance across geographies and genres including film, dance, theater, literature, visual arts, and music. The speaker series is part of the multi-genre project “A Year on Angel Island,” and we’ll use the former immigration station at this meaningful spot in San Francisco Bay as a jumping-off point for wide-ranging conversations. Most talks will also be available via Zoom (check individual listings).

A+D @ BAMPFA is a weekly public lecture series organized by the Arts + Design Initiative and co-curated by departments throughout the campus and local and national arts organizations. In Fall 2022, the series is co-curated with Future Histories Lab and will explore how the arts transform understanding about the past into possibilities for the future. Speakers will be announced before the start of the fall semester.
