  • News Release George Floyd Justice in Policing
    Fortified by the Past… Focused on the Future RELEASE FOR: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2021 CONTACT: Tkeban X.T. Jahannes (404) 944-1615 | [email protected] Civil Rights Leaders Call on Congress To Pass George Floyd Justice In Policing Act Today, civil rights leaders called on the U.S. House of Representatives to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act – a critical step to holding law enforcement accountable for unconstitutional and unethical conduct. The 2020 killing of George Floyd sparked a year of national protests in all 50 states calling for an end to police brutality against Black and Brown communities and a demand for accountability in every sector of law enforcement. Addressing this nation’s history of violent, discriminatory policing requires passing legislation that advances systemic reforms rooted in transparency and accountability. It is the responsibility of the federal government to set standards on justice, policing, and safety. A vital step in this process is the passage of the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, which recognizes the importance of stripping law enforcement of qualified immunity; creating a national registry of police misconduct complaints; declaring prohibitions for law enforcement profiling; limiting the transfer of military-grade equipment to state and local law enforcement; and restricting funds from law enforcement agencies that do not prohibit the use of chokeholds. “The killing of George Floyd held a mirror up to a truth about the American legal system. It showed us in the most stark and irrefutable way, that there are deep, fundamental problems with how this country allows law enforcement to intimidate, abuse, torture, and kill unarmed Black people.

The “Great Meme War:” the Alt-Right and its Multifarious Enemies 1 The “Great Meme War:” the Alt- Right and its Multifarious Enemies Maxime Dafaure Memes and the metapolitics of the alt-right 1 The alt-right has been a major actor of the online culture wars of the past few years. Since it came to prominence during the 2014 Gamergate controversy,1 this loosely- defined, puzzling movement has achieved mainstream recognition and has been the subject of discussion by journalists and scholars alike. Although the movement is notoriously difficult to define, a few overarching themes can be delineated: unequivocal rejections of immigration and multiculturalism among most, if not all, alt- right subgroups; an intense criticism of feminism, in particular within the manosphere community, which itself is divided into several clans with different goals and subcultures (men’s rights activists, Men Going Their Own Way, pick-up artists, incels).2 Demographically speaking, an overwhelming majority of alt-righters are white heterosexual males, one of the major social categories who feel dispossessed and resentful, as pointed out as early as in the mid-20th century by Daniel Bell, and more recently by Michael Kimmel (Angry White Men 2013) and Dick Howard (Les Ombres de l’Amérique 2017).

Race Prominent Feature in Coverage of Trayvon Martin Abstract This textual analysis examines news framing of the shooting of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman. After studying coverage from The Sanford Herald (North Carolina), The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times and The Denver Post, the authors conclude national media perpetuated racial stereotypes, thus heightening the issue of race and making the case more emotional than factual. Readers outside of Sanford, N.C., had few details about the physical altercation, the heart of Zimmerman’s self-defense claim.

(E)Racing Trayvon Martin Cynthia Lee* INTRODUCTION As we celebrate the 25th anniversary of Critical Race Theory [CRT], we have much to celebrate and much work ahead. In its early years, Critical Race Theory was a much-criticized and denigrated body of scholarship. By and large, critical race scholars were law professors of color writing about issues of racial subordination and injustice. Their work was criticized as insufficiently rigorous.1 The use of narrative or storytelling, a prominent feature of much CRT scholarship, was criticized as well.2 Many junior law professors of color were warned by more senior professors of color not to write about race before acquiring tenure as doing so might negatively affect their chances of getting tenure.3 Today, CRT, while still viewed negatively by many, has become a much more respected mode of scholarship. Many law schools today offer courses on Critical Race Theory or Race, Racism, and the Law.

  • Facebook As a Reflection of Race- and Gender-Based Narratives Following the Death of George Floyd
    social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article Exceptional Injustice: Facebook as a Reflection of Race- and Gender-Based Narratives Following the Death of George Floyd Patricia J Dixon and Lauren Dundes * Department of Sociology, McDaniel College, 2 College Hill, Westminster, MD 21157, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 16 November 2020; Accepted: 8 December 2020; Published: 15 December 2020 Abstract: Following the death of George Floyd, Facebook posts about the Black Lives Matter movement (BLM) surged, creating the opportunity to examine reactions by race and sex. This study employed a two-part mixed methods approach beginning with an analysis of posts from a single college student’s Facebook newsfeed over a 12-week period, commencing on the date of George Floyd’s death (25 May 2020). A triangulation protocol enhanced exploratory observational–archival Facebook posts with qualitative data from 24 Black and White college students queried about their views of BLM and policing. The Facebook data revealed that White males, who were the least active in posting about BLM, were most likely to criticize BLM protests. They also believed incidents of police brutality were exceptions that tainted an otherwise commendable profession. In contrast, Black individuals commonly saw the case of George Floyd as consistent with a longstanding pattern of injustice that takes an emotional toll, and as an egregious exemplification of racism that calls for indictment of the status quo. The exploratory data in this article also illustrate how even for a cause célèbre, attention on Facebook ebbs over time. This phenomenon obscures the urgency of effecting change, especially for persons whose understanding of racism is influenced by its coverage on social media.

  • 1 As Leaders of the Civil Rights Organizations Listed Below, We Write
    October 30, 2018 Attorney General Sessions U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530-0001 Dear Attorney General Sessions: As leaders of the civil rights organizations listed below, we write in response to the recent horrific hate crimes that occurred last week. Just this past Saturday, the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh was the victim of a shooting during Sabbath services which left 11 worshippers dead. This anti-Semitic attack followed a week in which frequent, prominent leaders who were critics of President Trump were victims of multiple attempted bombing attacks by an alleged supporter of the President. Just a few days ago, an armed gunman tried to enter an African- American church in Kentucky, just before killing two separate Black grandparents in a Kroger parking lot. Earlier this month, members of the “Proud Boys” led a violent assault on protesters in New York City while shouting bigoted slurs. These incidents are the latest in the wave of hate crimes that have increased exponentially over the last two years across the United States. Indeed, in its annual Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents, the Anti-Defamation League reports a 60 percent surge in hate crimes since 2017.1 The Southern Poverty Law Center found that the number of hate groups in the United States in 2017 rose to 953 from 912 in 2016.2 We raised the issue of hate crimes with you directly during an in- person meeting in March 2017 at your offices. These incidents are all too familiar to the African-American community which has been the target of hate-related crimes throughout United States history.

  • Weed, Race, and the Demonization Of
    Marijuana’s “Dark Side”: Drugs, Race, and the Criminalization of Trayvon Martin ______________________________________________________ ALEXANDER TEPPERMAN University of Florida “They’ve killed my son and now they’re trying to kill his reputation.” - Sybrina Fulton, mother of Trayvon Martin, March 25, 2012.1 It may seem at first blush that, when she called out those vocal media members who questioned her son’s character, Sybrina Fulton was merely engaging in the sort of hyperbolic catharsis one might expect from a grieving parent. Her contention, however, was hardly an exaggeration. In the weeks following Martin’s shooting death at the hands of George Zimmerman in Sanford, Florida, a multitude of traditional and online media outlets levied a counter-offensive against the public hostility facing Zimmerman,2 renewed discussions of racial profiling in American life, and, most importantly, the gun culture and racial profiling that many commentators claimed facilitated Martin’s shooting. Some of Martin’s defenders would later claim that the aspersions cast upon the seventeen year-old’s character were simply a transparent and self-conscious form of racism, though this claim is a half-truth at best. Such explanations ignore the possibility that the criticisms emanating from Martin’s critics were also cynical tools of necessity, employed toward wholly utilitarian ends. The most vigorous defenders of Florida’s now- infamous Stand Your Ground laws, one could reasonably argue, were simply countering critiques of the policy the most effective way possible, beginning by discrediting Martin’s reputation and, in turn, his status as a victim. This allowed Stand Your Ground’s defenders to deflect public discussion away from the embattled policy, keeping it safe from state and federal interference.
