Studentów, pracowników i wszystkie zainteresowane osoby zapraszamy na kolejny wykład otwarty w języku angielskim, zorganizowany przez nauczycieli akademickich kierunku Filologia, pod tytułem "Afros and Tribal Identities: Black Americans' Uses of African Roots".
Wykład wygłosi pani dr Aneta Dybska, pracownik naukowy Uniwersytetu Warszawskiego.
Aneta Dybska is an Assistant Professor at the Institute of English Studies, University of Warsaw. She teaches courses in American Studies, with a focus on the 19th and 20th century American culture and social history. Those courses reflect her academic interest in the ideologies of the nation-building, class, race, gender, and sexual formation. Her recent research engages scholarly debates on urban revitalization and gentrification, theorizations of the “right to the city” idea, as well as grassroots struggles for the urban commons against privatization and surveillance—preoccupations that have dominated urban politics from the 1970s until today. Her writing is informed by insights into the use and production of urban spaces in American cities and metropolitan regions coming from scholars in cultural studies, sociology, geography and urban studies. She is currently working on a book project dealing with the spatial aspect of struggles for social justice in the 1980s and 1990s. This research builds on her earlier interest in 1960s urban ethnography on black communities, which culminated in the publication of Black Masculinities in American Social Science and Self-Narratives of the 1960s and 1970s (Peter Lang, 2010).
