It focuses on the portrayal of the shifting faces of communitarian identity/politics by analyzing two digital versions of this historical event – one is Mehreen Jabbar's drama-film Ramchand Pakistani and the other is the adapted version of Razia Butt's novel Bano, broadcast by a private T.V Channel with the title of Dastaan. Based on the postmodernist shift from performance to performance, our argument foregrounds the digital representation of 1947 which offers new angles to view the subaltern story(ies) vis-à-vis the official history of nationalism by showing different characters who experience a fleeing sense of identity in their attempt to cope with the trauma of displacement and violence during 1947. In this article, the textual and digital versions of 1947 are read as cultural texts which embody the human and subjective experience and perceptions of ordinary human subjects from both sides of the divide, either during the historical event of Partition as sufferers or survivors or in current scenario in the wake of the politics of mistrust between Pakistan and India.

  • WANDERING SOULS Journeys with the Dead and the Living in Viet Nam
    WANDERING SOULS Journeys with the Dead and the Living in Viet Nam Please join award-winning author Wayne Karlin for a discussion of his novel, which brings to light the grace and courage of a soldier who brought back the soul of the man he killed to that man’s family, taking onto himself their own rending grief. It is also the story of the mercy of a family – and an entire village – who took that soldier to their hearts and allowed their gratitude at the ending he brought to their story to outweigh their need to hate him for the death that began it. A powerful portrait of the terrible price of war on soldiers and families, WANDERING SOULS reveals a way to heal by finding one’s own humanity mirrored in the lives of people who had once tried to kill each other. THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8TH LIBRARY 321 4:10 PM Wayne Karlin served in the Marine Corps in Viet Nam. He is the author of numerous books of fiction and nonfiction, including Lost Armies, The Wished-For Country, Rumors and Stones, Prisoners, and Marble Mountain. He is co-editor, with Le Minh Khue and Trong Vu, of The Other Side of Heaven: Post-War Fiction by Vietnamese and American Writers. His articles, essays, and book reviews have appeared in, among other publications, the Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Baltimore Sun, and The Nation. In 1998, he was awarded the Paterson Prize in Fiction, and in 2005, he received an Excellence in the Arts Award from the Vietnam Veterans of America.

  • The Importance of the U-Visa As a Crime-Fighting Tool for Law Enforcement Officials - Views from Around the Country1 December 3, 2012
    Report The Importance of the U-visa as a Crime-Fighting Tool for Law Enforcement Officials - Views from Around the Country1 December 3, 2012 Developed by National Immigrant Women’s Advocacy Project2 at American University Washington College of Law As part of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) of 2000, Congress created the U-visa. The U-visa has become an important crime fighting tool that helps law enforcement officials, including police, sheriffs, and prosecutors across the country to build trust with immigrant crime victims and their communities. The U-visa offers undocumented immigrant crime victims the protection and support they need to muster the courage to approach the police, make police reports, and cooperate in the detection, investigation and/or prosecution of perpetrators of domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, murder, manslaughter, felonious assault, and other violent crimes. The U-visa helps both law enforcement officials and immigrant crime victims because the U-visa and DHS policies contain the following key components: Protection of immigrants from deportation Access to legal work authorization Help for immigrant victims who come forward and report crimes whether past, present or future crimes 1 This project was supported by Grant No. 2009‐DG‐BX‐K018 awarded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance. The Bureau of Justice Assistance is a component of the Office of Justice Programs, which also includes the Bureau of Justice Statistics, the National Institute of Justice, the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, the SMART Office, and the Office for Victims of Crime.

  • The Reluctant Fundamentalist
    Mongrel Media Presents The Reluctant Fundamentalist A film by Mira Nair (128 min., USA, 2012) Language: English and Urdu Distribution Publicity Bonne Smith Star PR 1028 Queen Street West Tel: 416-488-4436 Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M6J 1H6 Fax: 416-488-8438 Tel: 416-516-9775 Fax: 416-516-0651 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] www.mongrelmedia.com High res stills may be downloaded from http://www.mongrelmedia.com/press.html SYNOPSIS 2011, Lahore. At a café a Pakistani man named Changez (Riz Ahmed) tells Bobby (Liev Schreiber), an American journalist, about his experiences in the United States. Roll back ten years, and we find a younger Changez fresh from Princeton, seeking his fortune on Wall Street. The American Dream seems well within his grasp, complete with a smart and gorgeous artist girlfriend, Erica (Kate Hudson). But when the Twin Towers are attacked, a cultural divide slowly begins to crack open between Changez and Erica. Changez’s dream soon begins to slip into nightmare: he is transformed from a well-educated, upwardly mobile businessman to a scapegoat and perceived enemy. Taking us through the culturally rich and beguiling worlds of New York, Lahore and Istanbul, The Reluctant Fundamentalist is a story about conflicting ideologies where perception and suspicion have the power to determine life or death. A MULTI-LAYERED VISION “Looks can be deceiving.” Changez Khan “An Indian director making a film about a Pakistani man. That’s not an easy thing to do,” says novelist and co-screenwriter Mohsin Hamid of The Reluctant Fundamentalist, the new film from award-winning filmmaker Mira Nair, based on Hamid’s acclaimed novel of the same name.

  • Implementing a Civil Right to Counsel in Maryland
    Implementing a Civil Right to Counsel in Maryland MARYLAND ACCESS TO JUSTICE COMMISSION 2011 Maryland Access to Justice Commission 2011D Commerce Park Drive Annapolis, Maryland 21401 410-260-1258 www.mdcourts.gov/mdatjc Letter from the Chair ______________________________________________________________________________ In its 2009 Interim Report, the Maryland Access to Justice Commission recommended Maryland support the principle that low-income Marylanders should have the right to counsel at public expense in basic human needs cases. Over the past year the Commission has explored the one question that has hampered consideration of this important initiative – how might a civil right to counsel be implemented in our State? The Commission explored a range of implementation variables – issues that would need to be resolved if a program or entity were created to provide counsel for the many individuals who would be entitled to assistance should a civil right to counsel ever be established by legislation or case law. The Commission also asked the unthinkable question – what might it cost to provide meaningful access to counsel should the right be established? The enclosed document contains two parts. The first provides a substantive description of how a right might be implemented. The second provides a fiscal narrative, an effort to approximate a fiscal note for a civil right to counsel in Maryland. The Commission is publishing this document in an effort to advance the statewide conversation about a civil right to counsel, as one vehicle through which we might achieve the Commission’s goal of equal access to justice for all. Sincerely, Irma S. Raker Maryland Court of Appeals (ret.) Chair, Maryland Access to Justice Commission Table of Contents Recommended Implementation Strategies for a Civil Right to Counsel in Maryland .................................................................
