The Modern China and Media Culture departments at the College of Staten Island will present “Migrant Children and Global Film: Case Studies in Local Mobility,” a lecture by Dr. Stephanie Hemelryk Donald, on Thursday, November 5 in Building 1A, Room 308 at 1:30pm.
Event co-coordinator Ying Zhu, Associate Professor of Media Culture and co-coordinator of the Modern China Program
at CSI, says that the lecture will address “the foregrounding of the idea of home as both a cosmopolitan location
and as a migratory experience, [and] as a process of home-making and the taking up of cosmopolitan rights.”

She has been Visiting Professor at the Film Department at Kings College London and at the Centre for the Study of Democracy, University of Westminster.
