U.S. Senators: Vote YES on the Disability Treaty! © Nicolas Früh/Handicap International November 2013 Dear Senator
U.S. Senators: Vote YES on the Disability Treaty! © Nicolas Früh/Handicap International November 2013 Dear Senator, The United States of America has always been a leader of the rights of people with disabilities. Our country created the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), ensuring the rights of 57.8 million Americans with disabilities, including 5.5 million veterans. The ADA inspired the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) treaty. The CRPD ensures that the basic rights we enjoy, such as the right to work and be healthy, are extended to all people with disabilities. Last December, America’s leadership diminished when the Senate failed to ratify the CRPD by 5 votes. In the pages that follow, you will find the names of 67,050 Americans who want you to vote Yes on the CRPD. Their support is matched by more than 800 U.S. organizations, including disability, civil rights, veterans’ and faith-based organizations. These Americans know the truth: • Ratification furthers U.S. leadership in upholding, championing and protecting the rights of children and adults with disabilities • Ratification benefits all citizens working, studying, or traveling overseas • Ratification creates the opportunity for American businesses and innovations to reach international markets • Ratification does not require changes to any U.S. laws • Ratification does not jeopardize U.S. sovereignty The Senate has an opportunity that doesn’t come along often in Washington—a second chance to do the right thing and to ratify the CRPD. We urge you and your fellow Senators to support the disability treaty with a Yes vote when it comes to the floor.We must show the world that U.S. -

People of Faith Reject Senator Kelly Loeffler's Attacks Against Rev
People of faith reject Senator Kelly Loeffler’s attacks against Rev. Raphael Warnock and the Black Church As people and organizations of faith, we applaud the Rev. Raphael Warnock for preaching our shared values of nonviolence, righteousness and justice in the prophetic tradition of the Black church, following in the legacy of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., his predecessor at Ebenezer Baptist Church. We also appreciate Rev. Warnock’s work keeping alive the ministry and legacy of the late Rev. Dr. James Cone, one of the most pre-eminent Christian theologians of the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Senator Kelly Loeffler’s desperate attacks against Rev. Warnock and Dr. Cone are an immoral and dangerous attempt to hijack religion for dishonest, hateful political purposes. Dr. Cone condemned racism, shared the Christian teaching that God broke into human history as a working-class person of color to lift up the marginalized, and welcomed allies of all races to the fight against white supremacy. As Americans of many faiths, we call on Senator Loeffler and her allies to cease these baseless attacks at once. Rev. Warnock is right to stress the nonviolence that characterizes so many of our faith traditions. He is equally right to stand with Dr. Cone against the injustice of white supremacy, which has historically cloaked itself in the words of our faith traditions and must be constantly rooted out. Taking Rev. Warnock and Dr. Cone’s words out of context to score cheap political points and divide Americans by race and religion draws on a long history of bigoted attacks against the Black church. -

Warren Metcalf, Chair ______________________________ Dr. Joe Watkins ______________________________ Dr. Albert Hurtado ______________________________ Dr. Benjamin Alpers ______________________________ Dr. Fay Yarbrough © Copyright by PAUL MCKENZIE-JONES 2012 All Rights Reserved. Dedicated to my wife Yvonne Tiger, our two children, Jordan and Lula, my three parents, Glyn, Carol (deceased) and Sue Jones, and my in-laws, Marcy and Sandy Tiger Acknowledgements It has been a long and convoluted journey, crossing two continents, to this dissertation. As such thanks are due to people in three countries. England, Scotland, and the United States. Four, if you wish to count Indian Country as a distinct region. Beginning in England, I owe a huge debt to Dr. Colin Harrison for authorizing my independent studies in American Indian history when my undergraduate degree offered no courses covering this material. Without this initial intellectual freedom, I doubt I would have continued the journey that led me to the University of Oklahoma. I also owe an equal debt to the American Studies Director, Joanna Price, for allowing me to eschew the numerous forms of critical theory thrown at me in favor of ‘close reading.’ Without close reading I think my academic career would have stopped with my BA. -
