SUMMARY:Archaeology Leverhulme Trust Lecture\, The Origins of Farming Communities in the Haidai Region of Northern China: New Discoveries and New Interpretations.
DESCRIPTION:Archaeology Leverhulme Trust Lecture\, The Origins of Farming Communities in the Haidai Region of Northern China: New Discoveries and New Interpretations.\nIn the second lecture in this series\, Professor Guiyun Jin will share fascinating insights of how people living in the Haidai Region of China transitioned from hunter gatherers to settled farmers. Early farmers\, living in the Haidai region thousands of years ago developed intensive farming methods focusing on crops such as rice\, millet and soybean and animals including pigs and dogs. They also farmed high-yield wild fruits and nuts\, rich in starch\, such as hazelnuts\, water chestnut and Gorgon fruit\, whilst hunting water fowl and fish. This\nintensive and mixed subsistence strategy supported high yields and more stability allowing farming communities to become established and leading on to a sophisticated agricultural society as early as the third millennium BC. The main lecture will be followed by a drinks reception in the Archaeology foyer\, all who join us for the lecture are invited to stay for the reception. \nBooking is required and RSVPs for the event need to be directed to events@reading.ac.uk by Wednesday 8th May along with any dietary or access requirements.

SUMMARY:Reading 2050: What is the Future of the Tech Economy in Reading?
DESCRIPTION:Reading has a rich history going back to medieval times and a reputation for change and adaption to economic pressures and technological change. \nLocation and connectivity have been the single most consistent factors in Reading’s economic evolution.  Most reminiscent in Readings economic history is the 3Bs: ‘Beer\, Biscuits\, and Bulbs’ dating back to the 1800s and the industrial revolution. \nMore recently we coined the acronym ‘the 3Is’: IT\, Investment and Insurance. A stark change from the three B’s this is a major transformation from a manufacturing secondary sector economy to a Knowledge based\, tertiary sector economy.  From factories to offices\,  from transporting goods and services by land to transporting deals\, knowledge and information via the internet\, from blue collar  6pm-6pm manual jobs to  white collar 9pm – 5pm and 24 /7 trading. \nEven so the 3Is are evolving  to be more specialist. Energy and life sciences feature widely in our economy.  We are going big scale Microsoft HQ to co working space for entrepreneurs\, we are becoming more niche digi-tech\, fin-tech\, bio-tech nano-tech. \nThis makes for a very interesting future and something we must respond to in planning and regenerating our city especially as the pace of change is becoming more rapid. \nWill place determine our economic landscape or will we simply become a convenient place for the sectors of tomorrow to land and grow?  Can we fuel the future sectors in Reading with people\, places to live and a life style they want? What will the next three letter acronym be to describe Readings economy?  Will it only be three will it be more or less? Does it matter? \nPlease join Nigel Horton-Baker from Reading UK for a lecture: ‘What is the Future of the Tech Economy in Reading?’ \nThe lecture is part of the ‘Economy and Employment’ theme of the Reading 2050 lecture series\, which provide a platform to discuss how Reading should evolve into a smarter and more sustainable city by 2050 (www.reading2050.co.uk ) \nAdmission to the lecture is free. \nThe SBE\, Barton Wilmore and Reading UK\, established the Reading 2050 group in 2013. The Reading 2050 lecture series is structured around three themes\, which underpin the Reading 2050 vision: \n*Place and Environment\n*People and Lifestyle\n*Economy and Employment \nIn 2017\, the School brought together expert speakers to discuss Reading’s heritage and history\, the future of its transport and energy and the impact of climate change and floods. A discussion on Reading’s Art and Culture was facilitated in 2018\, and there are other Reading 2050 events planned for 2019. \n

SUMMARY:Fairbrother Lecture: Women's Voices: From Slavery to the #MeToo Movement
DESCRIPTION:Graduate School Annual Fairbrother Lecture\, presented by Elizabeth Barnes (History) \nIn October 2017 following sexual abuse allegations against the film producer Harvey Weinstein\, the viral spread of the #MeToo hashtag on social media sparked an unprecedented global wave of women disclosing their own experiences of sexual assault and harassment. \nWithin a 24 hour period the #MeToo hashtag was tweeted more than 500\,000 times and featured in 12 million Facebook posts. For many\, this represented a watershed moment of social progress. But what lessons does history hold for the #MeToo movement? \nThe end of the American Civil War offered emancipated African Americans equal protection under the law for the first time – including granting black women the right to bring rape charges against white men. Similarly to #MeToo\, the period saw an escalation of disclosures of sexual violence\, with black women seizing upon the opportunity to redefine their past abusive relationships with white men. \nJoin Elizabeth Barnes as she recounts her research journey through the history of this wave of revelations and explores how the pattern of progress followed by sustained backlash continues to be felt today. \nPlease note\, this event is not suitable for children. Admission is free. Booking is required.
