Resolution Reinstating Jeff Sessions As United States Senator from Alabama RESOLUTION REINSTATING JEFF SESSIONS AS UNITED STATES SENATOR FROM ALABAMA Whereas, Jeff Sessions has honorably and ably served the people of the State of Alabama and the United States of America as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama (1981-1993), Attorney General of Alabama (1995-1997), and United States Senator (1997-2017); and Whereas, President Donald J. Trump has publicly expressed reservations and displeasure about his decision to nominate and appoint Jeff Sessions as Attorney General for the United States and recently publicly criticized Jeff Sessions’ performance as Attorney General for the United States; and Whereas, on July 19, 2017, the New York Times quoted President Trump as stating that, “Sessions should have never recused himself, and if he was going to recuse himself, he should have told me before he took the job and I would have picked somebody else”; and Whereas, on July 19, 2017, the New York Times quoted President Trump as stating that, “Jeff Sessions takes the job, gets into the job, recuses himself, which frankly I think is very unfair to the president. If he would have recused himself before the job, I would have said, ‘Thanks, Jeff, but I’m not going to take you”; and Whereas, on July 24, 2017, President Trump again criticized and expressed displeasure with Jeff Sessions when President Trump tweeted that Jeff Sessions was “our beleaguered A.G.”; and Whereas, on July 25, 2017, President Trump criticized and expressed displeasure with Jeff Sessions when President Trump tweeted that “Attorney General Jeff Sessions has taken a VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes (where are & DNC server) & Intel leakers!”; and Whereas, on July 25, 2017, President Trump criticized and expressed displeasure with Jeff Sessions when President Trump tweeted that, “Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump campaign – “quietly working to boost Clinton.” So where is the investigation A.G.”; and Whereas, on July 25, 2017, AL.COM reported President Trump criticized and expressed displeasure with Jeff Sessions when it quoted President Trump as stating, “When they say he [Jeff Sessions] endorsed me, I went to Alabama. I had 40,000 people. He was a senator from Alabama. I won the state by a lot, massive numbers. A lot of states I won by massive numbers. But he was a senator, he looks at 40,000 people and he probably says, ‘What do I have to lose?’ And he endorsed me. So it’s not like a great loyal thing about the endorsement. But I’m very disappointed in Jeff Sessions.”; and INITIALS: _____ _____ _____ _ MB __ _____ _____ _____ _____ _____ JPB JFB RB MB MM RSM BP TP LS Whereas, the undersigned Republican candidates support resolution of these differences between President Trump and Attorney General Jeff Sessions by offering a “win-win” proposition that empowers President Trump to appoint another Attorney General for the United States that he is more comfortably with and appears to desire while simultaneously allowing Attorney General Jeff Sessions to resume his tenure as United States Senator from the great State of Alabama; and Whereas, The restoration of Jeff Sessions to his position as United States Senator dramatically restores the power and prestige of the State of Alabama in the United States Senate by placing a person with 20 years of seniority into the U.S. Senate, thereby dramatically improving the ability of Alabama’s junior senator to acquire important committee assignments and committee chairmanships otherwise denied the current Senate placeholder, who is last in Seniority (#100 out of 100 Senators) in the United States Senate; Now Therefore: Be it resolved that the undersigned agree to the following (subject to the below terms and conditions): 1. Each of the undersigned hereby agrees to simultaneously withdraw as candidates for the United States Senate pursuant to the special election ordered by Governor Kay Ivey: primary election date August 15, 2017, primary run-off election date September 26, 2017, and general election December 12, 2017. 2. Under Alabama law, the resignation of all primary candidates of a political party empowers the political party to nominate a person to fill the nomination vacancy and represent the party in the general election. The undersigned call on the Alabama Republican Party to offer the nomination to, and if accepted, to nominate Jeff Sessions to fill the vacancy created by the resignations of the undersigned, thereby making Jeff Sessions the Republican Party nominee for the United States Senate in this special election called by Governor Kay Ivey. 3. Incumbent Senator Luther Strange agrees to resign from the United States Senate at a time and date agreed to with Jeff Sessions, thereby empowering Governor Kay Ivey to reappoint Jeff Sessions as United States Senator from the great State of Alabama. The signatures of the undersigned are binding and of full force and effect if, and only if the following terms and conditions are met: 1. All Republican Senate candidates sign this Resolution, thereby agreeing to all of its terms and conditions. 2. Now-Attorney General Jeff Sessions agrees to accept (if offered) Governor Ivey’s appointment to the United States Senate. 3. Now-Attorney General Jeff Sessions agrees to accept (if offered) the Alabama Republican Party’s nomination as its nominee to represent the Republican Party in the general election set for December 12, 2017. 4. The terms, contingencies, conditions, and required signatures are affixed hereto on or before August 8, 2017. We, the undersigned agree to the terms and conditions of this Resolution, as evidenced by our signatures and initials attached hereto, effective immediately upon all terms, contingencies, conditions, and required signatures being affixed hereto, on or before August 8, 2017. __________________________ __________________________ James Paul Beretta Roy S.

    Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism By Matthew W. Horton A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Dr. Na’ilah Nasir, Chair Dr. Daniel Perlstein Dr. Keith Feldman Summer 2019 Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions Matthew W. Horton 2019 ABSTRACT Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism by Matthew W. Horton Doctor of Philosophy in Education and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory University of California, Berkeley Professor Na’ilah Nasir, Chair This dissertation is an intervention into Critical Whiteness Studies, an ‘additional movement’ to Ethnic Studies and Critical Race Theory. It systematically analyzes key contradictions in working against racism from a white subject positions under post-Civil Rights Movement liberal color-blind white hegemony and "Black Power" counter-hegemony through a critical assessment of two major competing projects in theory and practice: white anti-racism [Part 1] and New Abolitionism [Part 2]. I argue that while white anti-racism is eminently practical, its efforts to hegemonically rearticulate white are overly optimistic, tend toward renaturalizing whiteness, and are problematically dependent on collaboration with people of color. I further argue that while New Abolitionism has popularized and advanced an alternative approach to whiteness which understands whiteness as ‘nothing but oppressive and false’ and seeks to ‘abolish the white race’, its ultimately class-centered conceptualization of race and idealization of militant nonconformity has failed to realize effective practice.
