Dr. Bjork-James is a cultural anthropologist who conducts immersive and historical research on disruptive protest, environmental struggles, state violence, and indigenous collective rights. He is the principal investigator of Ultimate Consequences, a digital archive on death in Bolivian political conflict, and author of The Sovereign Street: Making Revolution in Urban Bolivia.

From 2008 to 2013, he conducted ethnographic fieldwork and oral history interviews on social movements, race and space, protest tactics, and political change in Cochabamba, Sucre, and La Paz, resulting in a monograph, The Sovereign Street. Using both anthropological and historical methods, The Sovereign Street explores how pivotal public events generate political legitimacy, contribute to major (sometimes revolutionary) transformations in the balance of power, and provide models for future political action. The ethnographic evidence collected about these events—of social life as experienced through the human body, the meanings attached to places, and social movement practices—explains how grassroots movements exert leverage upon the state through protest.

This event kicks off the 2026 University of Mississippi Voting Summit, which marks the 250th anniversary of the United States and features programming that examines Mississippi’s role in the ongoing legacy of voting rights and democratic participation.

Leroy Clemons is a community builder, racial healing practitioner, and civic leader from Philadelphia, Mississippi, with more than three decades of experience at the intersection of youth development, social transformation, and local democracy. He currently serves as Executive Director of the Neshoba Youth Coalition, a grassroots organization recognized for its innovative “ABC’s of Community Building” model that equips young people to become problem-solvers, organizers, and leaders in their own communities.

Castel V. Sweet, Ph.D., serves as Director of the Center for Community Engagement and as assistant professor of practice in community engagement at the University of Mississippi.

Her work emphasizes relationship-building, place-based learning, and collaborative approaches to addressing community-identified priorities.

This event was created by the UM Voting Engagement Ambassadors and the Center for Community Engagement and cosponsored by the Center for the Study of Southern Culture.

SouthTalks is a series of events – including lectures, performances, film screenings and panel discussions – that explore the interdisciplinary nature of Southern studies. All events are at Barnard Observatory, unless otherwise noted, and are free and open to the public.

Join us at 6 pm on Tuesday, February 17 at Heartbreak Coffee on the square for a presentation by Theresa Levitt, Cook Chair and Professor of History at the University of Mississippi.

Hélène Jégado was placed on trial in 1851, accused of murdering some 30 people by poisoning them with arsenic. Chemists and medical doctors were crucial to her conviction, using a newly developed apparatus that could detect the presence of arsenic in the bodies of some of her victims. She was executed by guillotine, and went on to be a legend of wickedness for generations. But studying her case, I have come to believe they got it wrong. While her trial was celebrated as a triumph of the certainty that science provides, further scientific advances undermined their claims, and point to tensions in the link between “science” and “certainty” that the courts tried to maintain.

One adult and one child will spend up to four Fridays learning 12+ card games to play with a regular set of cards.

We will learn and practice 3 new games each week. Game difficulty will range from easy to focus required. We will master a few well played classics but also introduce newer versions, alternative rules, and hopefully a few you’ve never heard of!

One adult and one child will spend up to four Fridays learning 12+ card games to play with a regular set of cards.

We will learn and practice 3 new games each week. Game difficulty will range from easy to focus required. We will master a few well played classics but also introduce newer versions, alternative rules, and hopefully a few you’ve never heard of!

Ford Ole Miss Student UnionThis urgent national conference will bring together leading voices to address one of the most pressing challenges facing our democracy: restoring trust in American journalism. Through thoughtful dialogue and solution-driven conversations, participants will examine how media, technology and public perception intersect — and what it will take to rebuild credibility and strengthen the role of a free press in civic life.

Adam Kinzinger, from Illinois, who served six terms in the House, was one of only two Republicans on the January 6th Committee. He is the founder of the Country First movement with 100,000+ members.

Democrat Joseph Kennedy III of Massachusetts, served eight years in the House and subsequently was appointed U.S. special envoy for Northern Ireland. He is one of the founders of the Groundwork Project, which does advocacy work in Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma and West Virginia.

Other speakers and panelists scheduled for the April 17 conference include: Brian Stelter, CNN’s chief media analyst; Chris R. Vaccaro, the national president of the Society of Journalists; Clayton Weimers, executive director of RSF USA; Rufus Friday, executive director of the Center for Integrity in News Reporting and the former publisher of the Lexington Herald-Leader; Graeme Joffee, investigative sports journalist; Professor Kathy Kiely of the Reynolds Journalism Institute at the University of Missouri; Ellen McCarthy, the founder/CEO of the Trust in Media Cooperative and a former U.S. assistant secretary of state for intelligence and research; André Natta, executive director of the Alabama Initiative for Independent Journalism; Wesley Muller, a staff writer at the Louisiana Illuminator and a former U.S. Army paratrooper; Vivian Walker, co-president of the Public Diplomacy Council of America, an adjunct professor at Georgetown University and former executive director of the U.S. Advisory Commission on Public Diplomacy.

Designed for journalists, students, educators, policymakers, civic leaders and engaged citizens, this event invites all who care about the future of news and its impact on our nation.

The full list of panel times and speakers can be found on our website.
