With easy-to-use mapping tools, classes such as literature; history; film and media; and women’s, gender, and sexuality studies are visualizing archives, telling spatial stories, creating engaging exhibits, contributing to crowdsourced projects, and developing geospatial datasets. This workshop will discuss the essentials of developing mapping assignments for humanities classrooms—from bite-size to final project. We will look at examples of mapping projects and break them down to understand the tools, skills, elements, and steps to mapping with your students. We welcome you to reach out to Kaylen Dwyer (kaylen.dwyer@tufts.edu) at any time to discuss your classroom needs. Please bring a laptop.

This talk explores the evolution of Adivasi food systems as a response to political, environmental, and economic changes. It centers on the voices of Adivasi people and their perspectives and reflections on food as culture, food as self-medication, food as sustenance, food as sustainability, and importantly, food as conversation with nature. The talk advocates for recognizing and valuing Indigenous knowledge to decolonize food systems and promote sustainability, cultural identity, and resilience amidst global challenges.

We aspire to host conversations that cut across disciplines, schools, and divisions of labor to reimagine environmental knowledge, relations, and expertise. Over the next three years, this project’s events and working groups will examine how university knowledge has historically underpinned the creation of inequitable environments and agricultures, while exploring ways to build more sustainable and just ecologies on our campus and beyond. This talk examines methods of agricultural education tied to institutions of higher education such as agricultural experiment stations, the Tuskegee moveable school, and demonstration farms as technologies of plantation pedagogy. These technologies not only targeted Black and Native peoples as subjects who needed to change how they farmed land but also targeted land in order to transform the land itself and people and non-human kin's relationships to it. Thus, land, much like the bodies of Black and Native peoples, was seen as an appropriate subject of experimentation, and often one that institutions had limited accountability to. Through this talk, I argue that agricultural education is part of a broader system of plantation pedagogy where "what is done to people is done to land."

Her work led to the groundbreaking study of young victims and the impact of trauma on their growth and development, their families and communities. Burgess’ expertise led to a collaboration with the FBI’s newly created Behavioral Sciences Unit to study violent serial offenders, and the links between child abuse, juvenile delinquency, and subsequent perpetration. Her book A Killer by Design: Murderers, Mindhunters, and My Quest to Decipher the Criminal Mind chronicles this work. Dr. Burgess will share old cases with the audience during her talk.
