    William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe A film by Emily Kunstler and Sarah Kunstler POV www.pbs.org/pov DISCUSSION GUIDE William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe POV Letter frOm the fiLmmakers NEw YorK , 2010 Dear Colleague, William kunstler: Disturbing the Universe grew out of conver - sations that Emily and I began having about our father and his impact on our lives. It was 2005, 10 years after his death, and Hurricane Katrina had just shredded the veneer that covered racism in America. when we were growing up, our parents imbued us with a strong sense of personal responsibility. we wanted to fight injustice; we just didn’t know what path to take. I think both Emily and I were afraid of trying to live up to our father’s accomplishments. It was in a small, dusty Texas town that we found our path. In 1999, an unlawful drug sting imprisoned more than 20 percent of Tulia’s African American population. The injustice of the incar - cerations shocked us, and the fury and eloquence of family members left behind moved us beyond sympathy to action. while our father lived in front of news cameras, we found our place behind the lens. our film, Tulia, Texas: Scenes from the Filmmakers Emily Kunstler and Sarah Kunstler. Photo courtesy of Maddy Miller Drug War helped exonerate 46 people. one day when we were driving around Tulia, hunting leads and interviews, Emily turned to me. “I think I could be happy doing this for the rest of my life,” she said, giving voice to something we had both been thinking.

    Malka Crossroads: The Future of the U.S.-Israel Strategic Partnership Haim Malka Foreword by Samuel W. Lewis The U.S.-Israel partnership is under unprecedented strain. The relationship is deep and coopera- tion remains robust, but the challenges to it now are more profound than ever. Growing differ- ences could undermine the national security of both the United States and Israel, making strong cooperation uncertain in an increasingly volatile and unpredictable Middle East. This volume explores the partnership between the United States and Israel and analyzes how political and strategic dynamics are reshaping the relationship. Drawing on original research and dozens of interviews with U.S. and Israeli officials and former officials, the study traces the development CROSSROADS of the U.S.-Israel relationship, analyzes the sources of current tension, and suggests ways for- ward for policymakers in both countries. The author weaves together historical accounts with current analysis and debates to provide insight into this important yet changing relationship. It is a sobering and keen analysis for anyone concerned with the future of the U.S.-Israel partner- ship and the broader Middle East.

  • Hamas: Background and Issues for Congress
    Hamas: Background and Issues for Congress Jim Zanotti Analyst in Middle Eastern Affairs December 2, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41514 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Hamas: Background and Issues for Congress Summary This report and its appendixes provide background information on Hamas, or the Islamic Resistance Movement, and U.S. policy towards it. It also includes information and analysis on (1) the threats Hamas currently poses to U.S. interests, (2) how Hamas compares with other Middle East terrorist groups, (3) Hamas’s ideology and policies (both generally and on discrete issues), (4) its leadership and organization, and (5) its sources of assistance. Finally, the report raises and discusses various legislative and oversight options related to foreign aid strategies, financial sanctions, and regional and international political approaches. In evaluating these options, Congress can assess how Hamas has emerged and adapted over time, and also scrutinize the track record of U.S., Israeli, and international policy to counter Hamas. Hamas is a Palestinian Islamist military and sociopolitical movement that grew out of the Muslim Brotherhood. The United States, Israel, the European Union, and Canada consider Hamas a terrorist organization because of (1) its violent resistance to what it deems Israeli occupation of historic Palestine (constituting present-day Israel, West Bank, and Gaza Strip), and (2) its rejection of the off-and-on peace process involving Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) since the early 1990s. Since Hamas’s inception in 1987, it has maintained its primary base of political support and its military command in the Gaza Strip—a territory it has controlled since June 2007—while also having a significant presence in the West Bank.

  • Review: Michael Meltsner, the Making of a Civil Rights Lawyer
    REVIEW: MICHAEL MELTSNER, THE MAKING OF A CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER James R. Ralph, Jr.* In the middle of The Making of a Civil Rights Lawyer, Michael Meltsner recalls the first time he met William Kunstler. It was in late 1961, shortly after Meltsner had joined the NAACP Legal and Education Defense Fund (LDF). Kunstler had not yet, Meltsner remembers, “been overtaken by fame.”1 A meeting on representing civil rights workers was about to begin when a call came in about arrests in Poplarville, Mississippi, a hard- nosed Delta town where only two years earlier a black man had been lynched for allegedly raping a white woman. Kunstler immediately demanded action. “We have to get there now,” he boomed. “This is Poplarville. I mean Poplarville!”2 Kunstler was already showing the impulsive traits that would make him one of the most well-known civil rights lawyers in the country. “Unfortunately,” Meltsner adds, “as time went by, he developed a habit of crisscrossing the South and filing a wild array of cases—an itinerant, a sort of legal Johnny Appleseed—that other lawyers would have to take over after he moved on.”3 Meltsner does not say whether he actually had to pick up after Kunstler, but he certainly fits the description of those who did—hard working, committed, and unlikely to be featured in newspapers or on television. As a result, Meltsner has not figured prominently in the leading histories of civil rights litigation in the 1960s, but that does not mean that his new book is a secondary account by a minor player.4 He offers an insider’s view of the work of LDF (arguably the most important public interest legal organization in the country’s history); a far-ranging yet clear- headed meditation on law, social change, and the struggle for racial equality; and candid commentary on the virtues of being a public interest lawyer by a veteran practitioner.

  • John F. Kennedy & the Ascendancy of U.S. Counterinsurgency Doctrine by Ryan Van Koughnett a Thesis Presented to the Universi
    John F. Kennedy & the Ascendancy of U.S. Counterinsurgency Doctrine by Ryan Van Koughnett A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in History Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2018 © Ryan Van Koughnett 2018 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii The formation of a coherent counterinsurgency policy in the United States is often attributed to the administration of President John F. Kennedy. Indeed, through his own personal fascination and promotion of the subject, Kennedy infused funding and expertise into a steadily expanding counterinsurgency apparatus. However, American counterinsurgency doctrine was implanted deeply within military and intelligence institutions and government bureaucracy long before the Camelot era. American conquest by counterinsurgency has a long legacy. The Founding Fathers for Kennedy (to whom this tradition belongs) were Andrew Jackson, William Sherman, William McKinley, Teddy Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson. As this study argues, periods of American expansion have always been based on the principles of anti-civilian warfare. The history of the United States is one of expansion and primitive accumulation – a process facilitated by methods promoted by presidents spanning the last two centuries. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Hunt, Dr. Sbardellati, and Dr. Walker for taking the time to read over this manuscript.

As a high school student, it was reading Darrow's biography by Irving Stone,' and reading the closing arguments in his famous trials, 2 that inspired me to pursue a career as a lawyer. I dis- covered I was not alone. Thousands of other lawyers had found the same inspiration and also looked to Darrow as their hero. For fifteen years I kept a portrait of Darrow hanging over my desk, and I fre- quently found myself gazing up and asking, "Would Clarence Dar- row turn down this case? What would Clarence Darrow have to say about that?" That's what heroes are for: to inspire us and to serve as role models.
