  • Obstruction of Justice
    Obstruction of Justice “You’re Hannah, right?” Hannah Morgan, a 20-year old from Appalachia, Virginia, was one of 11 protesters in handcuffs early Monday morning September 15 at the construction site for a coal-fired power plant being built in Wise County Virginia by Dominion Power. The handcuffs were applied by the police, but the questioner, it turns out, was from Dominion Power. “Mumble, mumble, mumble”, the discussion between police and the Dominion man were too far away to be heard by the young people. But it almost seemed that the police were working for Dominion. Maybe that’s the way it works in a company town. Or should we say company state? Virginia has got one of the most green-washed coal-blackened governors in the nation (http://www.columbia.edu/~jeh1/mailings/20080529_DearGovernorGreenwash.pdf). It seems Hannah had been pegged by Dominion as a “ringleader”. She had participated for two years in public meetings and demonstrations against the plan for mountaintop removal, strip mining and coal burning, and she had rejected their attempts to either intimidate or bargain. “Bargain?” What bargain is possible when Dominion is guaranteed 14% return on their costs, whether the coal plant’s power is needed or not. Utility customers have to cough this up, and they aren’t given any choice. The meetings and demonstrations were peaceful. Forty-five thousand signatures against the plant were collected. But money seems to talk louder. Dominion’s “mumble, mumble” must have been convincing. Hannah and Kate Rooth were charged with 10 more crimes than the other 10 defendants.

  • THE MCCONNELL CENTER Where Teaching History & Making History Come Together
    THE MCCONNELL CENTER Where Teaching History & Making History Come Together 1 FROM THE DESK OF PRESIDENT RAMSEY It is the goal of every institution of higher learning to prepare its students to take their place on the local, state and national stages. For generations, students have found their political voices and a lifelong calling on college campuses and learned how public policy and advocacy shape our country. The University of Louisville has been proud to be the home of the McConnell Center for more than 20 years, exposing students to a variety of viewpoints from some of the most important and influential leaders of their time. In addition to learning from the best and the brightest, the center has provided more than 200 students with $3 million dollars in scholarship money over the last two decades. In the same way UofL strives to change and better the world around us, the McConnell Center has improved the university, while affecting the larger community in significant and lasting ways. The center’s high profile reputation and prestigious guest speakers continually shines a bright light on our city, while providing our future leaders access to insight and advice from national and international leaders. The center also has established a permanent lecture series, free and open to the public, on a variety of important public policy topics. As the center continues to expand its role on campus and in our community, I ask that you join me in lending our support to Dr. Gary Gregg and his team, now and in the years ahead.
