UCLA sociologist Chris Herring’s research focuses on poverty, homelessness, and housing in US cities. His current book project is an ethnography of the criminalization of homelessness in San Francisco to be published with UC Press. He has co-directed two participatory action research projects and publications with the San Francisco Coalition on Homelessness, where he organized with the Human Rights Working Group. Herring served as a researcher at the San Francisco’s Mayor’s Office of Homelessness and has collaborated on research with the National Coalition on Homelessness, Anti-Eviction Mapping Project, the Western Regional Advocacy Project, and ACORN. He regularly consults with county governments, think tanks, and legal aid groups.
Herring’s writing has appeared in the Washington Post, Places, Progressive Planning, Shelterforce, the Berkeley Journal of Sociology, and homeless street newspapers across the US and Canada. His research and commentary has also been featured in the LA Times, NY Times, UK Guardian, Al Jazeera, the San Francisco Chronicle, Bloomberg’s City Lab, and other outlets.
UO Professor Claire Herbert's research focuses on law, housing, property, and urban sociology. Her book, A Detroit Story: Urban Decline and the Rise of Property Informality was published with University of California Press in 2021. In this book, she examines the way that de jure illegal uses of property - like squatting, scrapping, and gardening - shape the form of the city, neighborhood conditions, and residents’ well being.
Professor Herbert is currently writing a book called When Home is Illegal: Unsheltered Homelessness in America which examines the interaction between local regulations, enforcement, and the well-being of residents experiencing unsheltered homelessness. Professor Herbert is also Co-PI on an NSF-funded, mixed-methods project called "Informality and Inequality in the Global North: Regulation, Non-Compliance, and Enforcement in US Land Use and Housing Law" which studies informal infill: housing units produced in violation of local regulations but that provide an important source of affordable housing.

Unfortunately, the Prince’s evil brother, Don John, sees a perfect opportunity to stir up trouble, causing a huge uproar that almost destroys everything.

Much contemporary fiction from Indian Ocean Africa and South Asia turns simultaneously to the past and across the ocean generating alternative cartographies interlinking the Indian Ocean world. This means the past is not simply a background against which their narratives unfold-their historical setting-but the past itself functions as an intertext through which an Indian Ocean world gets reimagined. This talk will examine the rhetoric of loss and recovery in Indian Ocean discourse through an intertextual reading of Mauritian writer Ananda Devi's novel Indian Tango (2005), as a transnational queer rewriting of Satyajit Ray's cinematic adaptation (1984) of Rabindranath.
2:00–4:00 p.m.
