Saharczewski; tel. 413.597.2242 Email: [email protected] Introduction If one had to select one historical personality within the period 1940 to 1975 who best represented and reflected black urban life, politics, and culture in the United States, it would be extremely difficult to find someone more central than the charismatic figure of Malcolm X/El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz. Born in Omaha, Nebraska, in 1925, and growing up in the Midwest, young Malcolm Little was the child of political activists who supported the militant black nationalist movement of Marcus Garvey. After his father’s violent death and his mother’s subsequent institutionalization due to mental illness, Little was placed in foster care and for a time in a youth detention facility. At age sixteen he left school, relocating to Boston upon the invitation of his older half-sister, Ella Little. During World War II, the zoot-suited “Detroit Red” became a small-time hustler, burglar, and narcotics dealer in Harlem and Roxbury. In January 1946, Little was arrested for burglary and weapons possession charges, and received a ten-year sentence in the Massachusetts prison system.

Armstrong Racial Origins Aug 18 2016 Submitted
Racial Origins of Doctrines Limiting Prisoner Protest Speech Andrea C. Armstrong* ABSTRACT This article examines the racial origins of two foundational cases governing prisoner protest speech to better understand their impact in light of the Black Lives Matter movement. Two Supreme Court cases provide the primary architecture for the regulation of prisoner or detainee speech. The first, Adderley v. Florida, is (mis)interpreted for the proposition that jails (and by analogy, prisons) are non-public spaces. Under First Amendment doctrine, non-public spaces are subject to heightened regulation and suppression of speech is authorized. The second, Jones v. North Carolina Prisoners’ Labor Union, Inc., amplifies the effect of Adderley and prohibits prisoner solicitation for union membership. Together, these two cases effectively provide broad discretion to prison administrators to punish prisoners and detainees for their protest speech. Neither Adderley nor Jones acknowledge the racial origins of the cases. Holdings in both cases relied on race-neutral rationales and analysis and yet, the underlying concerns in each case appear tied to racial concerns and fears. Thus this Article is a continuation of a broader critical race praxis that reminds us that seemingly objective and neutral doctrines themselves may incorporate particular ideas and notions about race. Today’s protesters face a demonstrably different doctrinal landscape, should they protest within the prison or jail walls. While the content of speech by a “Black Lives Matter” activist may not change, the constitutional protection afforded to that speech will be radically different depending on where she speaks. * Associate Professor of Law, Loyola University New Orleans College of Law.

“Malcolm X – Old and New” – Sunday, February 3, 2013
“Malcolm X – Old and New” Sunday, February 3, 2013 Rev. Bruce Southworth, Senior Minister The Community Church of New York Unitarian Universalist Readings (1) Manning Marable was a Professor of History, Public Affairs and African American Studies at Columbia University and a friend of our church attending a variety of community issue-oriented events over the years. He had severe lung disease, received a double-lung transplant in 2010, with what he called a “full recovery.” Sadly, he died in the spring of 2011 from pneumonia, a few days before the publication of his Pulitzer Prize winning biography: Malcolm X: A Life of Reinvention. Manning Marable had been struck over the years by various inconsistencies and omissions in the vastly popular Autobiography of Malcolm X published in 1965. He saw the need for a scholar’s history of his life and ideological development, of the details of his involvement with the Nation of Islam and the reasons for his leaving, and of his travels to Africa and the Middle East in the last year of his life… a need for all this, plus an understanding Malcolm X’s spiritual journey. Manning Marable concludes this magnificent detailed biography: Malcolm’s strength was his ability to reinvent himself, in order to function and even thrive in a wide variety of environments…. (p. 479) Malcolm’s person journey of self-discovery, the quest for God, led him toward peace and away from violence. But there is one more legacy that may shape the memory of Malcolm: the politics of radical humanism…ff. (and in James Baldwin’s estimation) “that’s the truth about Malcolm: he was one of the gentlest people I have ever met.” A deep respect for, and a belief in black humanity was at the heart of this revolutionary visionary‘s faith.

Racial Justice Through Class Solidarity Within Communities of Color
The Community-Building Project: Racial Justice Through Class Solidarity Within Communities of Color Joseph Erasto Jaramillot INTRODUCTION As people of color continue to face racial and socioeconomic subordination in this country, one wonders when, if ever, the "elusive quest for racial justice"' will end. Intellectuals dedicated to the pursuit of racial justice have focused their work on unmasking the operation of racism and white privilege and recognizing the perspectives of the oppressed. One central insight of this approach is the need to take race into account when analyzing the application of supposedly "race neutral" but so often racially discriminatory criteria. This strategy provides a theoretical basis for transforming society's view of racism and race relations. However, until the dominant culture becomes genuinely receptive to these ideas, communities of color will continue to suffer.2 Indeed, current political discourse adds fuel Copyright 0 1996 by Joseph Jaramillo. t Joseph Erasto Jaramillo received his J.D. from the University of California, Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall), and his B.A. from the University of California at Davis. He is currently a staff attorney at the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF) in San Francisco. He completed this Comment before he joined MALDEF. He would like to thank Professor Jerome McCristal Culp, Jr., of Duke University School of Law for his insight, former La Raza Law Journal Co- Editor-in-Chief Robert Salinas for his assistance and support, and Susana Martinez and Robby Mockler for their helpful editing and feedback. This Comment is dedicated to the committed gente of La Raza Law Students Association at Boalt Hall and all other schools, who give true meaning to the word "community." 1.

Why Mass Incarceration Matters: Rethinking Crisis, Decline, and Transformation in Postwar American History
Why Mass Incarceration Matters: Rethinking Crisis, Decline, and Transformation in Postwar American History Heather Ann Thompson As the twentieth century came to a close and the twenty-first began, something occurred in the United States that was without international parallel or historical precedent. Be- tween 1970 and 2010 more people were incarcerated in the United States than were imprisoned in any other country, and at no other point in its past had the nation’s eco- nomic, social, and political institutions become so bound up with the practice of punish- ment. By 2006 more than 7.3 million Americans had become entangled in the criminal justice system. The American prison population had by that year increased more rapidly than had the resident population as a whole, and one in every thirty-one U.S. residents was under some form of correctional supervision, such as in prison or jail, or on proba- tion or parole. As importantly, the incarcerated and supervised population of the United States was, overwhelmingly, a population of color. African American men experienced the highest imprisonment rate of all racial groups, male or female. It was 6.5 times the rate of white males and 2.5 times that of Hispanic males. By the middle of 2006 one in fifteen black men over the age of eighteen were behind bars as were one in nine black men aged twenty to thirty-four. The imprisonment rate of African American women looked little better. It was almost double that of Hispanic women and three times the rate of white women.1 Despite the fact that ten times more Americans were imprisoned in the last decade of the twentieth century than were killed during the Vietnam War (591,298 versus 58,228), and even though a greater number of African Americans had ended up in penal institu- tions than in institutions of higher learning by the new millennium (188,500 more), his- torians have largely ignored the mass incarceration of the late twentieth century and have not yet begun to sort out its impact on the social, economic, and political evolution of the postwar period.

Black Politics Reading List
Department of Political Science Black Politics Comprehensive Examination Reading List (September 2014) This is a listing of important books in various areas of Black politics. A capable graduate student will be conversant with at least some of these books. The list should be considered to be exhaustive, though not definitive and will be updated biennially. A few words on textbooks and scholarly books. A textbook is a compilation of generally acknowledged facts compiled in essays used to explain various political science topics. While they may occasionally be used in selected graduate courses, they are generally geared to introductory undergraduate courses. Consequently, they are inappropriate for use in graduate level comprehensive examinations. Such examinations are designed to ascertain your knowledge of original research, which is found in scholarly books. General Perspectives Robert C.
