  • Rousing the Sleeping Giant: Administrative Enforcement of Title VI and New Routes to Equity in Transit Planning
    05-Yan (Do Not Delete) 8/14/2013 1:23 AM Rousing the Sleeping Giant: Administrative Enforcement of Title VI and New Routes to Equity in Transit Planning Jerett Yan* From Homer Plessy to Rosa Parks, access to public transit has been at the center of the civil rights movement. While de jure segregation is largely a relic of this nation’s past, advocates have struggled to adapt civil rights jurisprudence to the more subtle and pervasive transit inequities that exist today. Administrative enforcement of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 has the potential to open a new front in the struggle for transit justice. Using the Federal Transit Administration’s Title VI guidance as a starting point, this Comment examines the current guidance’s innovations and weaknesses, and proposes new measures the Federal Transit Administration and other administrative agencies can use to ensure transit planning decisions are made in a manner that is most equitable to the communities involved.

  • The Police Execution of Oscar Grant (PDF)
    Historical Moments of Policing, Violence, and Resistance Series – Volume 5 The Police Execution of Oscar Grant By Olivia Perlow and Lakeesha J. Harris Designed by Antonia Clifford Cover Image by Chris Stain Series Conceived and Published by Project NIA (www.project-nia.org) and Chicago Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) Teaching Collective (http://chicagopiccollective.com) ABOUT THIS SERIES In the last few months of 2011 into early 2012, the issue of police violence once again burst into the mainstream with the treat- ment of Occupy protesters. While we were appalled at the violence directed at peaceful pro- testers by law enforcement, we were also dismayed that this phe- nomenon was treated as a novel one. The incidents were dis- cussed in a way that was divorced from historical context. After all, the black and white images of police dogs being unleashed on peaceful protesters during the black freedom movement of the 1950s and 60s would not have been alien to the young people who were abused by law enforcement in New York and Oakland at the Occupy protests. Police violence is unfortunately not new. In an attempt to inject some historical memory into the current considerations of police violence, Project NIA and the Chicago Prison Industrial Complex (PIC) Teaching Collective decided to develop a series of pamphlets to inform and educate the broader public about the longstanding tradition of oppressive policing toward marginalized populations (including some activists and orga- nizers). This series titled “Historical Moments of Policing, Violence & Resistance” features pamphlets on various topics including: Oscar Grant, the Missis- sippi Black Papers, Slave Patrols, the Young Lords, the 1968 Democratic Convention, the Danzinger Bridge Shootings, Black Student Protests on College Campuses, Timothy Thomas, Resistance to Police Violence in Harlem, and the 1937 Memorial Day Massacre, among others.
