SUMMARY:Joan Donovan
DESCRIPTION:Joan Donovan is an assistant professor of journalism and emerging media studies in the College of Communications at Boston University. She is also the founder of The Critical Internet Studies Institute\, a nonprofit that develops cutting-edge research and educational programs advancing public knowledge of emerging technologies and the paradoxes of innovation. After first speaking for the Chautauqua Lecture Series remotely in 2020\, Donovan will now make her in-person Amphitheater debut during the Week Six study of “The Global Rise of Authoritarianism\,” sharing how alternative political media has evolved in recent years\, particularly with regard to the swift advancements in AI\, and how social media can be abused to enable and empower authoritarian regimes.  \nDonovan is co-author of the book Meme Wars: The Untold Story of the Online Battles Upending Democracy in America\, which analyzes how meme culture became an important political communication strategy bridging social movements with contemporary political parties from Occupy to the Jan. 6 insurrection. Formerly\, she was the research director of the Harvard Kennedy School’s Shorenstein Center on Media Politics and Public Policy\, where she oversaw the Technology and Social Change Research Project\, which studied media manipulation\, disinformation\, and adversarial media movements. In 2023\, she blew the whistle on corporate influence over that research program.  \nPreviously\, Donovan was the research lead for Data & Society’s Media Manipulation Initiative\, which mapped how interest groups\, governments\, political operatives\, corporations\, and others use the internet and media to disrupt social institutions. She completed her Ph.D. in sociology and science studies at the University of California San Diego\, and subsequently was a postdoctoral fellow at the UCLA Institute for Society and Genetics\, where she studied white supremacists’ use of DNA ancestry tests\, social movements\, and technology.

SUMMARY:African American Heritage House Lecture: Paige Alexander
DESCRIPTION:Paige Alexander serves as chief executive officer of The Carter Center\, a nonprofit organization founded in 1982 by former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and former First Lady Rosalynn Carter to advance peace and health worldwide.

SUMMARY:Miko Marks
DESCRIPTION:Finding freedom through music is something that Miko Marks knows all too well. But it’s more than just freedom. It’s liberation. Deliverance. After living what seems to be multiple lives over\, Miko has finally come into the life she was born to live. And she’s more than ready to live it to the fullest – one of truth\, authenticity\, vulnerability\, joy and honesty. There’s a clip on YouTube that is quite striking. It’s an interview from a local Bay Area news channel featuring Miko Marks talking about her journey as a Black woman in country music. “For me\, being a country music singer-songwriter\, I’m truly dedicated to the work\, so it’s an uphill battle\, but it’s one I’m willing to climb.” That clip is from 2007. The conversations and the questions 15 years later\, in 2022\, are the same. Miko has answered them time and time again\, but there’s more to her story than the barriers she bridles. She has more to give than the small confines of that one line of questioning. Miko’s life as a Black woman in country and roots music is only a small part of the story. As she readies her latest album\, Feel like Going Home\, for release (October 14\, 2022 via Redtone Records)\, it’s beyond time to dig deeper.  \nMiko was born in Flint\, Michigan\, by a single mother\, a free spirit; undoubtedly where Miko gets her fire for life. Along with being passionate about being a mother and instilling strength and independence in Miko\, her mother also had a calling for fighting for equal rights for all. She would spend free time protesting on a local level in their town and would travel to Detroit for larger demonstrations\, always looking to make a genuine connection with everyone she met\, leaving the world better than she found it. This impacted Miko greatly as she grew and was pivotal in Miko finding her own voice. To provide for Miko\, her mother would spend nights working 3rd shift at the automotive factory\, while Miko’s grandmother would watch over her\, helping raise her for most of her young life. For Miko\, the women in her life were of utmost importance to her and their hopes and dreams for her were cautiously optimistic while being pragmatic due to the barriers they faced in their own lifetime. The path that Miko is on now would be almost unimaginable for women like her grandmother. Even still she was raised to rise. Miko reflects on the contributions of these women in “Good Life.” “My grandmother’s family came out of the south\, working in cotton fields\, struggling\, looking for hope up north as so many did during the great migration. I wanted to describe that in song and praise her and my mother and my ancestors for their power\, and to thank them for persevering so that I could have a good life.”
