SUMMARY:The Dilemma of Chinese Diaspora in The Decoupling Era
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\nPresenter: Rong Xiaoqing\, Author of The New York Times’ weekly newsletter “Overseas Chinese Journal”; Reporter for the Chinese language Sing Tao Daily in New York; Alicia Patterson Fellow (2019). \nModerator: Qin Gao\, Professor and Director of China Center for Social Policy\, Columbia School of Social Work \nFor a long time\, the Chinese diaspora living in the US has played a critical role in building the bridge between China and the US\, a role that had been appreciated by both the American and Chinese governments and businesses. But the increasing hostility between the two countries in recent times has undermined these efforts. The deepening tensions have been broadly covered by the media but there has been a lot less attention paid to how this has created perilous situation for many Chinese living in the US. \nAmid the rising nationalism in both countries\, Chinese in the US are often looked at with suspicion\, and some have been accused of spying for China. Meanwhile\, Chinese immigrants are called “betrayers” of their motherland by fervent nationalists in China simply because they left the country. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic adds to their stress level and makes every Chinese in the US vulnerable as anti-Asian hate crime surges. \nThe speaker\, who has been covering the Chinese diaspora in the US for more than two decades and is the author of the New York Times’ recently launched weekly newsletter “Overseas Chinese Journal\,” will discuss the struggles of Chinese living in the US in today’s heated political climate\, the pain of connecting to both countries but not being accepted by either\, their dilemma of picking sides (or not) between the two nations and their confusion about race\, nationality\, roots\, and identity in a decoupling era. She will also shed light on how the media coverage sometimes helps promote the misperceptions about the Chinese community. \nRong Xiaoqing is the author of The New York Times’ weekly newsletter “Overseas Chinese Journal.” She is also a reporter for the Chinese language Sing Tao Daily in New York and an Alicia Patterson Fellow (2019). She writes for various English and Chinese language publications in the US and China. Her articles appeared in Foreign Policy\, the National Review\, The New York Times\, the New York Daily News\, the South China Morning Post\, and China Newsweek\, among others. Rong has won multiple awards from the Society of Professional Journalists\, The Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism at CUNY\, and New America Media. She was the first reporter from a non-English language media to win an award from the Deadline Club. She was a grant recipient of the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting\, the Fund for Investigative Journalism\, and the California Health Endowment. \nThis event is part of the Weatherhead East Asian Institute series “Asia in Action: Knowledge and Inclusion in a Time of Fear and Ignorance” and cosponsored by the China Center for Social Policy at Columbia University. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact Information\nAthina Fontenot\naf3018@columbia.edu\nREGISTER\n\n

SUMMARY:Navigating HOT Moments: Before\, During\, & After Class (In Person)
DESCRIPTION:\nRegardless of course topic or content\,  HOT—heated\, offensive\, or tense—moments in the classroom are always a possibility. Although never fully avoidable or predictable\, there are steps instructors can take to help mitigate the potential for these moments\, and strategies to help better equip instructors for navigating HOT moments when they occur. Building upon reflections and discussions from the Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Action: First Steps session\, this session will help instructors identify strategies for engaging with\, facilitating\, and navigating HOT moments before\, during\, and after class. \nPlease note: This session will draw from reflections and activities completed during our live Anti-Racist Pedagogy in Action: First Steps session. We strongly encourage that you complete that session in community with others. If\, however\, you are unable to attend a live offering\, we do offer an asynchronous worksheet that can be completed ahead of this session. \nAfter attending this workshop\, participants will be able to:  \n\nIdentify strategies for anticipating and preparing for HOT moments before they occur\nIdentify ways to respond to and follow up on HOT classroom moments during and after class\nAccess strategies to become better equipped to navigate HOT classroom moments\n\n\nColumbia University makes every effort to accommodate individuals with disabilities.

SUMMARY:MTSP Book Launch: Lineages of the Literary: Tibetan Buddhist Polymaths of Socialist China (Columbia University Press\, 2021) － author Nicole Willock in conversation with Gray Tuttle
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\n\n\n \n  \n  \nNicole Willock(Ph.D. in Tibetan Studies and Religious Studies\, Indiana University) is an associate professor of Asian Religions at Old Dominion University in Norfolk\, Virginia. Her research examines the intersections between Tibetan literature\, Buddhist modernism\, moral agency\, and state-driven secularization projects in twentieth-century China. She serves as co-chair of the Tibet and Himalayan Religions Unit of the American Academy of Religion. \nGray Tuttle\, Leila Hadley Luce Professor of Modern Tibetan Studies at Columbia University and author of ​​Tibetan Buddhists in the Making of Modern China (CUP\, 2007)\, will serve as moderator and discussant. \nIn the aftermath of the cataclysmic Maoist period\, three Tibetan Buddhist scholars living and working in the People’s Republic of China became intellectual heroes. Renowned as the “Three Polymaths\,” Tséten Zhabdrung (1910–1985)\, Mugé Samten (1914–1993)\, and Dungkar Lozang Trinlé (1927–1997) earned this symbolic title for their efforts to keep the lamp of the Dharma lit even in the darkest hour of Tibetan history. \nLineages of the Literary reveals how the Three Polymaths negotiated the political tides of the twentieth century\, shedding new light on Sino-Tibetan relations and Buddhism during this turbulent era. Nicole Willock explores their contributions to reviving Tibetan Buddhism\, expanding Tibetan literary arts\, and pioneering Tibetan studies as an academic discipline. Her sophisticated reading of Tibetan-language sources vivifies the capacious literary world of the Three Polymaths\, including autobiography\, Buddhist philosophy\, poetic theory\, and historiography. Whereas prevailing state-centric accounts place Tibetan religious figures in China in one of two roles\, collaborator or resistance fighter\, Willock shows how the Three Polymaths offer an alternative model of agency. She illuminates how they by turns safeguarded\, taught\, and celebrated Tibetan Buddhist knowledge\, practices\, and institutions after their near destruction during the Cultural Revolution. \nAn interdisciplinary work spanning religious studies\, history\, literary studies\, and social theory\, Lineages of the Literary offers new insight into the categories of religion and the secular\, the role of Tibetan Buddhist leaders in modern China\, and the contested ground of Tibet. For more information about the book\, please click here. \nThis event is one of two book launches organized by the Modern Tibetan Studies Program this fall\, and is co-sponsored by the Weatherhead East Asian Institute and the C.V. Starr East Asian Library\, Columbia University. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact Information\nAthina Fontenot\naf3018@columbia.edu\n\n REGISTER\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
