Being Human UT Podcast EP - 017 - Tech is Comprehensive with Sylvester Johnson

Stacks on Stacks welcomes Dr. Sylvester Johnson, Virginia Tech's Center for Humanities director. In this week's episode, Sylvester fills us in on the 4-week pilot humanities course that he taught to 10 prison inmates at the River North Correctional Center. This pilot course was not only a great success but is just the start of an ongoing initiative to determine how universities and colleges can make way for education in the U.S. carceral system. This pilot was made possible by the hard work of many people and groups, including the Coalition for Justice, the Department of Corrections, the Calhoun Honors Discovery Program, and ITHAKA. Listen to Sylvester's episode here. Find out more about the Coalition for Justice, the Calhoun Honors Discovery Program, or ITHAKA. Dispatch announcement brought to you by our Collections correspondent, Nitra Easby.

COVID-19 shorts No. 2.  Prof. Sylvester Johnson talks about what he is seeing in the world of academia and AI, what innovations will come out of the crisis and what insights he has gained during this troubling time.

More with Professor Johnson of Virginia Tech. This time, we learn about his “big humanities” response to “big technologies.” Lots to consider, from brain-to-computer interfaces, to robotic morality, to democracy, to trust. We liked his ideas about the inclusiveness that is needed for human beings to think these things through to ensure that voices and experiences are not left out. Some big philosophical stuff that left Troy and Lee in deep thought. We aren’t sure what the future holds, but we are glad people like Sylvester are helping the world grapple with these foundational questions.

With the help of Professor Johnson of Virginia Tech, we discuss what it means to be human in an age of accelerating technology, where computers and robots can think and maybe even feel. Professor Johnson explains several of the amazing technologies that exist today, both “outside” people and those being incorporated directly into people’s bodies, and how industry and government is pushing this forward. He really expanded our views on how to think about humanity and technology.

When and where do African American religions begin? Sylvester Johnson, Associate Professor of African American Studies and Religious Studies at Northwestern University, disrupts the traditional temporal and geographical boundaries in the academic study of black religion in the Americas in his new book, African American Religions, 1500-2000: Colonialism, Democracy, and Freedom (Cambridge University Press, 2015). Johnson places the productive forces in African American religion at the intersection of empire and colonialism and within the constructs of notions of democratic freedom. His study requires this analytical reformulation in order to examine how Black religious history unfolds within changing social and political contexts over the longue duree. In our conversation we discussed Afro-European commercialism, European views on Indigenous African religious practices, Black Christianization, violent state regulation, nineteenth century political theologies, Black settler colonialism and the creation of Liberia, Garveyism, African American Muslims, anticolonial movements, the racialization of religion, FBI surveillance and repression of Black religious movements, the connection between the history of African American Religions and Muslims Americans after 9/11, and interdisciplinarity. Kristian Petersen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Nebraska Omaha. His research and teaching interests include Theory and Methodology in the Study of Religion, Islamic Studies, Chinese Religions, Human Rights, and Media Studies.
