Kenna Quinet & Crystal Garcia, 2010 Program Co-Chairs Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) The 2010 American Society of Criminology meeting is the largest ASC annual meeting ever held, including more than 2,300 papers across 676 sessions, 260 posters, and 85 roundtable sessions. ASC President Rick Rosenfeld selected Crime and Social Institutions as the program theme and the nine Presidential Panel papers and their response essays promise to provide insightful perspectives on crime and religion, education, family, polity and the economy. These papers will be part of a volume, Contemporary Issues in Criminological Theory and Research: The Role of Social Institutions, edited by Rosenfeld, Quinet and Garcia and published by Cengage Learning/Wadsworth. Look for the Presidential Panel sessions in the program and consider adopting the edited volumes for one of your courses. Watch for the Teaching Tips column in The Criminologist in early 2011 for ideas about using the Presidential volumes for your classes. The 28 Author-Meets-Critics sessions are sure to stimulate lively discussion and this year‘s poster session will include a wine tasting with some of the finest California wines. We will also have a number of panels sponsored by the United Nations, the Justice Department‘s Office of Justice Programs (including newly-confirmed ASC members, John Laub, Director of NIJ and Jim Lynch, Director of BJS), a Stockholm Symposium session featuring previous award winners and tributes to the late John Irwin, Marshall Clinard and James Inciardi. Also, for the first time, we will be sponsoring five Students-Meet-Scholars sessions. In these sessions, students will have an opportunity to meet the scholars they asked to hear from in a setting less formal than a typical thematic panel. Finally, we are screening the documentary, The Visitors, directed by Melis Birder. It tells the story of individuals that ride a charter bus from New York City each weekend bound for the numerous prisons that are located in upstate New York. The Visitors reflects, ―the struggles of a unique culture living at the intersection of confinement and the free world.‖1The movie screening will be followed by a panel discussion including scholars and people who visit loved ones in prison. Jeff Snipes, our local arrangements guru, has provided a unique approach to help you organize your ―things to do list,‖ in San Francisco. His recommendations include dining and entertainment pairs (for a full evening of fun), information on museums (e.g., Museum of Modern Art, Asian Art Museum of San Francisco), nightly performances at Beach Blanket Babylon, and don‘t forget the ferries, buses, blimps, antique cars, and Segway tours! Excursion information for Alcatraz, Angel Island, Sausalito, wine country and more are in your meeting packet. 1 For more information about The Visitors go to http://www.visitorsdocumentary.com/menu1.htm#. 4 Other DON‘T MISS events include the panel devoted to the contributions of Al Blumstein in recognition of his 80th birthday, the awards ceremony on Wednesday evening, the poster session and wine tasting early Thursday evening and the Presidential Address and Reception on Friday. Note the earlier time for the Presidential address--see you at 6:30 PM for President Rosenfeld‘s address ―The Big Picture.‖ Afterward, join us at the Minority Fellowship Dance. If you liked the bands in Philadelphia and St. Louis, you will love San Francisco‘s Big City Revue! Without the staff of the ASC office, Susan Case, Nicole Coldiron, Sue Beelman and Chris Eskridge, these meetings would not be possible. They all work tirelessly for the society and we are very grateful for all of their assistance. Also, a special thanks to the entire 2010 ASC program committee including the five Presidential Panel area chairs: Ron Akers, Shawn Bushway, David Farrington, Allison Payne and Thomas Stucky. We had a much smaller program committee this time around and that meant some area chairs had a Herculean task (If you see Steve Mastrofski, pat him on the back, he organized 275 papers!). We wish the new ASC President, Steve Messner, and his two program chairs, Eric Baumer and Ryan King, much success and a great meeting in 2011. In a unique arrangement, Cengage Learning/Wadsworth graciously agreed to publish Contemporary Issues in Criminological Theory and Research: The Role of Social Institutions and distribute it free-of-charge at the ASC 2010 conference. The book, edited by Rosenfeld, Quinet & Garcia, features nine primary articles in the areas of crime and religion, education, family, polity and the economy, along with response essays written by leading scholars in their respective fields. The Cengage Learning/Wadsworth edited volume is included in the packets being distributed to conference attendees upon registration, but attendees can also sign up to receive a copy by stopping by the Cengage Learning/Wadsworth booth in the exhibit area. 5 2010 ASC PROGRAM COMMITTEE Program Committee Co-Chairs Kenna Quinet, Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis Crystal A.

  • PROMISES Lesson Plan Understanding History, Religion, and Politics in Jerusalem and Beyond
    PROMISES Lesson Plan Understanding History, Religion, and Politics in Jerusalem and Beyond Grade Level: 7-12 Subjects: History, Language Arts, Behavioral/Social Studies, Sociology Estimated Time of Completion: 3-5 class periods, plus homework preparation Overview: The city of Jerusalem has been the center of controversy for centuries. Current differences involve the struggle between Israel and Palestine for control of the city and the areas known as the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. Rather than explore the conflict politically, PROMISES introduces viewers to seven Israeli and Palestinian children ranging in age between 9 and 13 who live with this conflict daily, and who have formed definite opinions about the roles of its participants. Living within 20 minutes of each other, “each growing up in very separate worlds,” these children had never met until filmmaker B.Z. Goldberg brought some of them together for a day. Through the course of the film, we learn that these disparate neighbors share common ideas, opinions, and biases shaped by cultural, religious, and historical influences. Typically, one side blames the other, but unlike adults, these children suggest that a resolution could be possible. After hearing about each other from B.Z., and motivated by curiosity, some of the children prevail upon him to arrange a meeting between the two sides. Voicing their ideas with a candid innocence underscored by the harsh realities of their young lives, these children offer hope that one day this conflict can be peacefully resolved. Through research, class discussion, and writing, students will be able to learn how the controversy came about.

Goldberg and Carlos Bolado STUDY GUIDE Academy Award Emmy Award Emmy Award Jewish Image Award Nominee BEST OUTSTANDING NFJC CROSS CULTURAL BEST DOCUMENTARY DOCUMENTARY BACKGROUND ANALYSIS PRODUCTION ✦ AN ALA VIDEO ROUNDTABLE NOTABLE VIDEO FOR ADULTS ✦ INTRODUCTORY LETTER FROM THE FILMMAKERS Dear Educator: We thank you for being teachers and for sharing PROMISES with your students and community. We started making PROMISES in 1995 and completed the film in 2001. It is a great honor to report that to date, PROMISES has been seen by more than 7 million people in the U.S. and more than 25 million people worldwide. In the U.S., PROMISES was broadcast nationwide on the PBS series POV in December 2001. Hailed as “extraordinary” (The New York Times) and a “masterpiece” (Jerusalem Post) and celebrated by critics and audiences alike, PROMISES won two Emmy Awards — Best Documentary and Outstanding Background Analysis — and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Feature Documentary. Recognizing the film’s commitment to presenting the many sides of the Middle East conflict, educators across the country and around the world have embraced PROMISES as a valuable educational tool. In the last two years, the PROMISES Film Project has received hundreds of requests from educators for classroom materials to accompany the film. While screening the film alone has significant educational value, we believe the viewing experience will be greatly enhanced when using the materials in this educational package.

I heard the first from Dr. James Orbinski, the current President of Medecins San Frontieres, or Doctors without Borders.1 It happened while he served as head of the humanitarian group’s mission in Rwanda as the genocide unfolded. When Dr. Orbinski learned that a hospital sheltered several hundred children, but was under control of the Hutus, he went to the Hutu leader in charge and asked to take the children, transfer them to a safer place. The leader said no. Dr. Orbinski asked, “Do you have children?” “Why yes,” the leader replied, proudly pulling out photos. The physician returned to the situation at hand, and said, “but these are children, too.” The Hutu leader replied, “No, they are cockroaches.” The next day, half of the children had been murdered. A recent documentary film, entitled “Promises,” tells the second story.2 The film, co-produced and co-directed by Justine Shapiro and B.Z.
