UC Santa Barbara Library invites you to the opening event for Unyielding Voices: Global Resistance and the Black Radical Tradition, an exhibition documenting the life’s work of Cedric J. Robinson and Elizabeth Peters Robinson, whose seminal scholarship and activism had wide-ranging influence at UCSB, in academia, and across many public arenas.
The event features a reception followed by a moderated conversation between Elizabeth Robinson, Charlie Hale, SAGE Sara Miller McCune Dean of Social Sciences, and Lidia Uziel, Associate University Librarian for Research Resources and Scholarly Communication, engaging the exhibition’s central themes—universities as sites not only for preserving freedom of expression but also for promoting social justice and the betterment of societies.
Featuring materials from the Cedric J. Robinson and Elizabeth P. Robinson Archive and other special collections, the exhibition reflects on the archive as a living space for dialogue, resistance, and the re-imagining of institutional responsibility, while exploring the power of archives to preserve, reinterpret, and amplify movements of resistance across the globe. By foregrounding voices historically silenced or marginalized, Unyielding Voices challenges patterns of inequity and envisions new possibilities for archival practice, community engagement, and collective memory.
The event also includes welcome remarks by University Librarian Todd Grappone and reflections from Maegan Miller-Likhethe, Assistant Professor of Global Studies, on her new role as Faculty Director of the Robinson Archive Project and the future directions of the project.
This event may be photographed or recorded.
Advance registration is recommended as space is limited.
