However,the fact that it clashedwith 'born again' PresidentJimmy Carterover tax breaksfor religiousschools believed to be discriminatory,together with its illiberalstances on manyissues, meant that it was characterizedas an extremistmovement.

  • 1 Written Testimony of J. Gerald Hebert on the Nomination Of
    Written Testimony of J. Gerald Hebert On the Nomination of Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III For Attorney General of the United States January 9, 2016 Thank you Mr. Chairman, Ranking Member Feinstein, and members of the Committee. My name is J. Gerald Hebert. For the first twenty-one years of my legal career I practiced law as an attorney in the Civil Rights Division of the United States Department of Justice (DOJ), where I served as Acting Chief, Deputy Chief, and Senior Litigation Counsel in the Voting Section. I am currently the Director of the Voting Rights and Redistricting program at the Campaign Legal Center, a nonpartisan, nonprofit election law organization in Washington, D.C. I am also an Adjunct Professor of Law at the Georgetown University Law Center. This testimony presents my views as to the nomination of Senator Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III to be the Attorney General of the United States, based on my personal experience with Mr. Sessions and my professional experience as a civil rights attorney for over forty years. In 1986, I testified before this Committee when it considered, and subsequently rejected, Mr. Sessions’ nomination to the United States District Court for the Southern District of Alabama. I testified then that Mr. Sessions’ personal interactions with me demonstrated a troubling tendency towards racial insensitivity. I stand by my 1986 testimony in its entirety, which was given to the best of my knowledge and belief. His actions in the interim have convinced me that Mr. Sessions has little respect for the civil rights laws he would be charged to enforce as Attorney General.

    The Second Reconstruction in Local Politics: Alabama Grassroots Activists Fulfilling the Promise of the Voting Rights Act, 1960-1990 by Lawrence Underwood McLemore A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama December 8, 2012 Keywords: Voting Rights Act, political activists, black suffrage, Alabama, Alabama Democratic Conference Copyright 2012 by Lawrence Underwood McLemore Approved by David C. Carter, Chair, Associate Professor of History Charles A. Israel, Associate Professor of History Kelly Kennington, Assistant Professor of History Abstract In arguing that historians expand the timeline for what is considered the modern civil rights movement, this dissertation examines how grassroots Alabama activists affiliated with the Alabama Democratic Conference carried the struggle for political equality forward on the local level after the enactment of the Voting Rights Act in 1965. This dissertation also argues that Alabama voting rights activists understood that change begins at the local level, and employed the Voting Rights Act in dismantling a variety of racially discriminatory laws and customs that governed political and electoral practices in their state. Many narratives of civil rights struggles have focused on national figures and institutions, such as Dr. Martin Luther King, President Johnson, the Congress, and the U.S. Supreme Court. This dissertation focuses, instead, on the local citizen-activists in Alabama who won hard-fought victories in voting rights by collaborating and utilizing connections with powerful leaders and institutions. Between 1960 and 1990, Alabama Democratic Conference activists succeeded in enfranchising most black citizens of Alabama. In the process, these political activists transformed Alabama’s politics and the state electorate.

    IMMIGRATION POLICY IN THE UNITED STATES: POLARIZATION AND PARANOIA By ROBERT WINSTON SCHARR A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2017 © 2017 Robert Winston Scharr To my most loyal family and friends ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My study of Congress began close to a decade ago, when my advisor, Dr. Lawrence Dodd, instructed me on the inner workings of the institution. Dr. Dodd, together with Dr. Scot Schraufnagel, had begun a series of works linking legislative productivity to partisan polarization. Amidst the legislative gridlock of the time, I noticed an increasingly contentious discourse on immigration policy both within and outside the institution of Congress. Having lived abroad before, and having dealt with the realities of being a foreigner, and having befriended countless immigrants visiting my own country, I have always placed a high value on advocating a fair treatment of immigrants. Thus, I formed an interest in Congress passing reform that accommodates the millions of immigrants who contribute to American society, with, of course, the safeguards necessary to ensure the long-term viability of the U.S. immigration system. With this in mind, I began to explore why Congress was able to make progress with reform in previous eras, but unable to do so in the modern era. I found my first major clue in the historical DW-NOMINATE trends put forth by Keith Poole and Howard Rosenthal, which seek to measure ideology of individual members as well as the ideological distance between the two major parties.
