Welcome to 2020! The DH@CC Team is excited to keep you posted on our successes and ongoing work. Throughout the semester, we'll be highlighting a variety of projects that we've supported on our blog. We've also got a lot of great programming in store for the next few months, including the ongoing Research Studio Series hosted in collaboration with The Claremont Colleges Library.

Stay tuned for announcements throughout the semester about upcoming events and workshops. In the meantime, be sure to follow us on social media and visit colleges.claremont.edu/dh for regular updates, blog posts about DH research and classes at The Claremont Colleges, tutorials, and more...!

Martin Hägglund's Visit

This semester, the DH@CC Team will be hosting the philosopher and literary critic Martin Hägglund (Comparative Literature, Yale). On March 10th, Martin will speak about his recently published work This Life: Secular Faith and Spiritual Freedom (Pantheon), a philosophical defense of atheism and a substantial elaboration of its moral and political implications.

For more information about Martin's visit, or to participate in a reading group of Martin's work starting later this month, please contact Aaron Hodges.

Unmaking/Remaking Memory Work: Building a Community-centered Digital Archive

I n the last decade, new community-centered digital archiving initiatives have grown immensely in recognition that traditionally ignored communities should have a role in how their histories get told. In this workshop, CGU MFA student and founder of @latinx_diaspora_archives , William Camargo, and CGU PhD student and co-founder of the Latinx digital archiving collective ImaginX en Movimiento (IXeM), Marisa Hicks-Alcaraz, will share their experiences building community-oriented digital archives. With the tools and strategies outlined in this workshop, we hope attendees will leave with new ideas for implementing community-engaged and justice-based recuperation methods in their own research and teaching.
