The DMV region is home to refugee and migrant communities from across the globe. It is also home to the centerpieces of the national security state, including CIA headquarters, the Pentagon, numerous military bases, as well as outposts of all the major firms that comprise the military-industrial complex, plus three of the military\u2019s university-affiliated research centers. This symposium of original student research inquires into the connections between these two aspects of regional development, as well as how migrants and their families grapple with continuing forms of slow violence such as racialized displacement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Based on two conjoined semester-long humanities research lab courses, students will briefly present their findings on four panels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Location: Gilman 308<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This symposium is open to students, faculty, staff, and community members. Please RSVP by 4\/23 to gcho2 at jhu dot edu. Lunch will be provided. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
