  • From Criminal to Citizen: How the Evolution of Public Opinion Won Gay Marriage in the Courtroom
    From Criminal to Citizen: How The Evolution of Public Opinion Won Gay Marriage In The Courtroom Sabrina Singer Senior Thesis Department of History Barnard College, Columbia University Advisor: Robert McCaughey Singer 1 Prologue A warm tropical breeze brushed my face as I stood in the Miami Beach Botanical Gardens waiting for the mayor to begin. The crowd murmured with excitement, looking around at each other with anticipation as the sun set behind the palm trees. I glanced over at the couple I had met earlier in the evening. They were dressed in matching tuxedos, holding hands, waiting. The drag queen next to me shifted her weight back and forth, impatient. Then, finally, the speeches were over and the ceremonies could begin. The judge had only lifted the stay on gay marriage in the early hours of the morning, yet hundreds of gay couples lined-up to walk down the makeshift aisle to the hastily constructed altar to be married by the mayor. Dressed in suits, biking clothes, jean shorts, and bathing suits, couple after couple affirmed their love and commitment. Same-sex marriage had come to Florida. I had witnessed similar jubilation in front of the U.S. Supreme Court building two summers prior when the Court issued its momentous ruling in United States vs. Windsor, overturning the Defense of Marriage Act that had prevented the federal government from recognizing same-sex marriage. Beholding the relief and joy on the faces of the people swarming the steps of the Supreme Court building, I knew that I had chosen the right issue to believe in.

  • COMMITTEE to SAVE NY
    The 1% COMMITTEE to SAVE NY How a Small Group of Big Business Interests and Billionaires are Hijacking New York State’s Public Policy Agenda on Behalf of the One Percent June 2012 The Public Accountability Initiative is a non-profit, 501(c)3 research and educational organization focused on corporate and government accountability. Kevin Connor, the lead author of this report, can be reached at [email protected]. Table of Contents Executive Summary 1 Who Rules the Committee? 4 Speculation and Bailouts 15 Policy Payoffs 18 Appendix 29 Executive Summary The Committee to Save New York established itself as one of the state’s most powerful lobbying forces in 2011, spending $12 million on a public relations campaign pushing budget cuts and other policy proposals closely aligned with Governor Andrew Cuomo’s agenda – the fifth most costly one-year lobbying effort ever conducted by a single organization in Albany.1 The Committee once again embarked on a massive political spending spree in 2012. Despite its power, much remains unknown about the Committee, which declines to disclose its donor list. Recent press reports have identified several donors, including casino gambling interests. These reports have suggested that the organization acted as a front group for these interests as they pushed to legalize casino gambling in New York State. But much of the money behind the Committee remains in the shadows. This report takes a closer look at the powerful forces behind the Committee and their playbook for “saving” New York. The Committee’s backers are primarily big business interests, billionaires, and other leading lights of New York State’s “one percent.” They played a key role in crashing New York’s economy through their own style of gambling, won billions in government bailouts, but now insist on “fiscal responsibility” for the rest of the state.

In keeping with the so-called “Christchurch Call to Action” which flowed from a meeting of government officials and internet giants on May 15, 2019 in Paris, Facebook issued an internal document entitled “Hate Agent Policy Review,” which, according to Breitbart, which received a copy from a source inside Facebook, “outlines a series of ‘signals’ that Facebook uses to determine if someone ought to be categorized as a ‘hate agent’ and banned from the platform.”[1] The guidelines were simultaneously draconian and incoherent. You can be designated as a “hate agent” if “you praise the wrong individual, interview them, or appear at events alongside them.”[2] Hate agent status is evidently contagious because Facebook may designate you as a hate agent if you associate with a “Designated Hate Entity,” like the Englishman Tommy Robinson. You can also be designated a hate agent “merely for speaking neutrally about individuals and organizations that the social network considers hateful.” Facebook tagged someone in October of last year simply because he gave what they considered was a “neutral representation of John Kinsman,” who is a member of “Proud Boys,” a group which Facebook does not like and does not want you to like.

  • 11. Choosing to Participate
    11. Choosing to Participate Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple of hope. ROBERT F. KENNEDY OVERVIEW The history of the Weimar Republic provides valuable insights Choosing to Participate, into how and why democracies fail. Chapter 11 looks at what is published by Facing needed for democracy to succeed. Over 140 years ago, History and Ourselves, Abraham Lincoln found one answer in these words: “We hold elaborates on many of these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; the themes developed in this chapter. Some that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable teachers use the book rights; that among these rights are life, liberty, and the pursuit as the basis for a of happiness.” He believed that a society based on those truths citizenship course that should be the goal of every citizen. It was, in his view, a goal stresses community that ought to be “constantly looked to, constantly labored for, involvement and even though never perfectly attained, constantly approximated, volunteerism. and thereby constantly spreading and deepening its influence and augmenting the happiness and value of life to all people of all colors everywhere.” In reflecting on efforts to build democracies in Eastern Europe after the fall of Communism, Czech President Vaclav Havel reached a similar conclusion. He stressed the need for a “civil society” – one that promotes “a climate that would encourage people to act as citizens in the best sense of the word.” Without that climate, democracy cannot survive.

  • Enacting Cultural Citizenship Through Charged Humor
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: ‘WORKING THE CROWD’: ENACTING CULTURAL CITIZENSHIP THROUGH CHARGED HUMOR Rebecca A. Krefting, Ph.D., 2010 Directed By: Associate Professor Mary Corbin Sies, Department of American Studies Like many cultural practices, comic performance is one of a host of weapons in the arsenal of tactics, strategies, and offensive maneuverings available to individuals and communities seeking to redress inequitable distributions of wealth, power, rights, and cultural visibility. This dissertation examines contemporary jesters opting to use humor to develop community, instruct and mobilize audience members, and lobby for political and cultural inclusion. It is a kind of humor that illumines one’s position in a specific socio-political, historical matrix; it is humor that creates community and conversely demonstrates the ways in which one does not belong. An examination of the economy—the production, exchange, and consumption—of this humor reveals how and why comics produce charged humor or humor that illumines one’s status as second-class citizen and how this kind of humor is consumed in the US. I employ a mixed-methods qualitative approach using ethnography, archival research, and critical discourse analysis to investigate comic performances: stand-up comedy, sketch comedy, and one-woman shows. Throughout, I draw from dozens of contemporary comics performing in the US, but take as case studies: Robin Tyler, a Jewish lesbian comic and activist who is currently spearheading the marriage equality movement in California; Micia Mosely, a Brooklyn-based, Black, queer woman whose one-woman show, Where My Girls At?: A Comedic Look at Black Lesbians, is touring the country; and a group of young people (eighteen and under) participating in Comedy Academy programs (a non-profit arts education organization in Maryland), allowing them to author and perform sketch comedy.
