  • Democracy in Ukraine Thirty Years After the Soviet Collapse
    Events at Stanford - 16:57 Dec 03, 2021
    Date: Wednesday, December 8, 2021. 11:00 AM. Location: In person and streaming via Zoom For decades, the Soviet Union was an authoritarian force in a polarized world. After the political transitions of the 1990s, democracy seemed to finally prevail; however, thirty years later it is in peril across the globe as several traditionally democratic countries have fallen victim to authoritarian backsliding. The political landscape changed forever on December 1, 1991, when Ukraine held a referendum on its independence from the Soviet Union, garnering overwhelming support from tens of millions of its citizens. This was the pivotal moment that paved the way for the signing of the Belavezha Accords on December 8, 1991, and the final collapse of the USSR. On the 30th anniversary of this historic event, join us to examine and rethink Ukraine's past and plan for its future as a democratic stronghold in Eastern Europe. Plus, enjoy a special screening of the docuseries COLLAPSE: How Ukrainians Destroyed the Evil Empire. AGE...

  • CCRMA presents Las Sucias
    Events at Stanford - 16:26 Dec 01, 2021
    Date: Thursday, December 2, 2021. 7:30 PM. Location: CCRMA Stage, The Knoll (Stanford affiliates only) | Livestreaming at CCRMA Live In-person seating at CCRMA Stage is limited to Stanford affiliates only. Please register here with your Stanford email address (non-Stanford email addresses will be discarded). Each guest must bring their Stanford ID card to tap it at the front door and wear a mask at all times while inside the building.  This performance will also be livestreamed at CCRMA Live. Tropical Noise Duo Las Sucias is an experimental Caribbean cacophony from the hands and lungs of hysterical brujas Danishta Rivero and Alexandra Buschman-Román. With roots in Santería, Afro-Caribbean, and Mestiza consciousness, using hybrid rhythms that include Raggaetón and Cumbia, they conjure the unapologetic screams of la loca, the deep-voiced lady screaming bible verses in the streets through a broken mic, and the wounded voices of the colonized.
