What does it mean to be "Inside" Tenement Time? This talk uses the tenement, metonymically and conceptually, to theorize the marginalized spaces of Jamaica’s capital city. It brings together literary, visual, and other cultural expressions that offer vernacular refusals of state surveillance. Drawing from her recently published book, Kezia Page argues that in its strategies of refusal, the tenement reorders common ideas of time and its relationship to being in the world. Approaching the problem of class and its relation to surveillance in this way exposes the deep fissures between ways of knowing that continue to separate the state and its citizens. Kezia Page, John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Chair; Associate Professor of English and Creative Writing & Africana and Latin American Studies; Director of Africana and Latin American Studies. Refreshments provided. All are welcome. - 4:15 PM1h 45mTime, Tenements, and Surveillance in the Caribbean CityAcademics | Lawrence Hall, The Robert Ho Lecture Room,105
