1 Equitably Ending the Fossil Fuel Era: Climate Justice, Capital, & The
Equitably Ending the Fossil Fuel Era: Climate Justice, Capital, & the Carbon Budget Georges Alexandre Lenferna A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2019 Reading Committee: Stephen Gardiner, Chair Carina Fourie Aseem Prakash Michael Blake Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Philosophy 1 ©Copyright 2019 Georges Alexandre Lenferna 2 University of Washington Abstract Equitably Ending the Fossil Fuel Era: Climate Justice, Capital, & the Carbon Budget Georges Alexandre Lenferna Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Stephen Gardiner Department of Philosophy This dissertation makes the moral case for equitably transitioning away from fossil fuels in line with keeping global warming as close as possible to the Paris Climate Agreement’s more stringent target of keeping global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. It argues that we should do so while relying as little as possible on risky and uncertain negative emissions and geoengineering technologies, as doing so might prolong the fossil fuel era and pose grave potential costs both to the present and future generations. The dissertation addresses a central objection to the moral imperative to transition away from fossil fuels, namely that it will detrimentally impact the poor and vulnerable. It argues in response that protecting the interests of the poor and vulnerable is best achieved through a rapid yet just transition away from fossil fuels. Based on the moral case to transition away from fossil fuels in line with 1.5°C the dissertation also explores what personal moral responsibility individuals have to take action to reduce fossil fuel usage and act on climate change. -
Literary, Subsidiary, and Foreign Rights Agents
Literary, Subsidiary, and Foreign Rights Agents A Mini-Guide by John Kremer Copyright © 2011 by John Kremer All rights reserved. Open Horizons P. O. Box 2887 Taos NM 87571 575-751-3398 Fax: 575-751-3100 Email: [email protected] Web: http://www.bookmarket.com Introduction Below are the names and contact information for more than 1,450+ literary agents who sell rights for books. For additional lists, see the end of this report. The agents highlighted with a bigger indent are known to work with self-publishers or publishers in helping them to sell subsidiary, film, foreign, and reprint rights for books. All 325+ foreign literary agents (highlighted in bold green) listed here are known to work with one or more independent publishers or authors in selling foreign rights. Some of the major literary agencies are highlighted in bold red. To locate the 260 agents that deal with first-time novelists, look for the agents highlighted with bigger type. You can also locate them by searching for: “first novel” by using the search function in your web browser or word processing program. Unknown author Jennifer Weiner was turned down by 23 agents before finding one who thought a novel about a plus-size heroine would sell. Her book, Good in Bed, became a bestseller. The lesson? Don't take 23 agents word for it. Find the 24th that believes in you and your book. When querying agents, be selective. Don't send to everyone. Send to those that really look like they might be interested in what you have to offer. -

Teaching About Climate Change
Radical Teacher 102 Teaching About Climate Change MAN EATING TREES COURTESY OF JOHN SOKOL ISSN: 1941-0832 In Memoriam: Pepi Leistyna by Editorial Board 1963-2015 RADICAL TEACHER 1 http://radicalteacher.library.pitt.edu No. 102 (Summer 2015) DOI 10.5195/rt.2015.213 ~ Remembering Pepi Leistyna ~ We mourn our Radical Teacher colleague, beloved educator, admired scholar and friend, Pepi Leistyna. Pepi’s work and passionate commitment to progressive politics are our cherished legacy, joined with many others. Pepi’s students’ blog comments regarding news of his death are heartfelt in their grief but also in love and admiration for him—for his compassion, wisdom, vast knowledge, and wit. The passion which fed his teaching also nourished his writing, lectures, his film Class Dismissed: How TV Frames the Working Class, which won the Studs Terkel Award for Media and Journalism (2007), and his winning the Peace Maker Award for photography in Palestine (2013). Teaching, researching, and activism were all of a piece for Pepi. He was a founding member of the International Institute for Critical Pedagogy and Transformative Leadership, and published widely, including the books Breaking Free: The Transformative Power of Critical Pedagogy, Presence of Mind: Education and the Politics of Deception, Cultural Studies: From Theory to Action. Pepi brought to Radical Teacher the same unflagging energy and commitment to social justice that inspired all he did. Among other things he compiled for Radical Teacher an excellent filmography on social class (RT 81) and he co-edited the cluster “Teaching Post-Colonial Literatures in the Age of Empire” (RT 82). -

Introduction a Nigger in the Woodpile, Or Black (In)Visibility in Film History
Introduction A Nigger in the Woodpile, or Black (In)Visibility in Film History On the screen we see two white farmers talking to each other next to a pile of wooden logs. One of them places a stick of dynamite inside one of the logs, which he then slips back into the woodpile. When the white men exit, two Black men enter and surreptitiously steal several pieces of wood (figs. 5 and 6). In the next shot, we see the interior of a cabin where a large Black woman is preparing food next to a wood-burning stove (fig. 7). The Black thieves enter, and one of them places log after log into the stove until the inevitable happens—the concealed dynamite is ignited and the stove ex- plodes, blowing the cabin apart. The two white farmers then enter the smoke- and debris-filled cabin, looking and laughing at the Black thieves who, according to the film’s catalogue description, have been “given a pun- ishment they will not soon forget.”1 This comedy, A Nigger in the Woodpile (American Mutoscope and Bio- graph, 1904), demonstrates many elements that are typical of Black repre- sentation in early cinema.The three Black characters are played by white ac- tors in blackface, wearing costumes signifying their traditional racial “types”:Mammy in apron and bandanna;an uppity “colored deacon,”strik- ing a Zip Coon figure in top hat and tails; and his partner in crime, a harm- less, shabbily dressed, white-haired Uncle Remus. The film depicts African Americans as habitual thieves, this time stealing firewood instead of the usual chickens or watermelon.
