  • Rethinking Documentary Photography
    RETHINKING DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY: DOCUMENTARY AND POLITICS IN TIMES OF RIOTS AND UPRISINGS —————————————————— A Thesis Presented to The Honors Tutorial College Ohio University —————————————————— In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for Graduation from the Honors Tutorial College with the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Art History —————————————————— by Jack Opal May 2013 Introduction I would like to think about documentary photography. In particular, I would like to rethink the limits of documentary photography for the contemporary. Documentary, traditionally, concerns itself with the (re)presentation of factual information, constitutes a record.1 For decades, documentary – and especially social documentary – has been under siege; its ability to capture and convey and adequately represent “truth” thrown into question, victim to the aestheticization of the objects, fading trust in their authors, and technological development. So much so that the past three decades have prompted photographer, documentarian, and art historian Martha Rosler to question first its utility, then its role, and finally its future in society. All of this has opened up the possibility and perhaps the need to reconsider the conditions and purpose of documentary practice, and to consider the ways in which it has been impacted by recent technological and historical developments. The invention of the internet and the refinement of the (video) camera into ever more portable devices and finally into the smartphone, and the rise to ubiquity within society of these inventions, signifies a major shift in documentary. So, too, have certain events of the past two decades – namely, the beating of Rodney King (and the circulation of the video of that event) and the development and adoption of the occupation as a major tactic within the political left.

  • Human Rights Zone: Building an Antiracist City in Tucson, Arizona
    Human Rights Zone: Building an antiracist city in Tucson, Arizona Jenna M. Loyd 1 [email protected] Abstract: Tucson, Arizona is on the front lines of border militarization and the criminalization of migration. Residents there are crafting creative responses to the state and federal government’s increasingly punitive treatment of migration. This critical intervention piece focuses on the We Reject Racism campaign as an effort to build an antiracist city in conditions of steady police and military presence. It situates this campaign in a historical lineage of building open and sanctuary cities, and suggests that demilitarization and decriminalization should be recognized as central aspects of antiracist Right to the City organizing. I arrived in Tucson, Arizona on the afternoon of July 28, 2010. Immediately, I spotted signs that read “We Reject Racism: Human Rights Respected Here” dotting modest front yards and lining storefronts of businesses near downtown. Soon these same signs, and many others, would fill the city’s streets. The immediate issue was Senate Bill 1070, a state law that would require police officers engaged in a legal stop to question people about their migration status and to arrest them if they could not produce paperwork verifying the legality of their presence. The bill received national and international criticism for enshrining a ‘Papers, please’ policy, and promising a future of racial profiling and civil rights abuses. The stated goal of SB 1070 is “attrition through enforcement,” and includes provisions for policing daily mobility and work that would make everyday life for undocumented migrants so difficult, legally and economically, that they would 1 Creative Commons licence: Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works Building an antiracist city in Tucson, Arizona 134 have no choice but to leave the state (or ‘self-deport’).

  • Copwatching Jocelyn Simonson Brooklyn Law School, [email protected]
    Brooklyn Law School BrooklynWorks Faculty Scholarship 4-2016 Copwatching Jocelyn Simonson Brooklyn Law School, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://brooklynworks.brooklaw.edu/faculty Part of the Criminal Law Commons, Criminal Procedure Commons, and the Evidence Commons Recommended Citation 104 Cal. L. Rev. 391 (2016) This Article is brought to you for free and open access by BrooklynWorks. It has been accepted for inclusion in Faculty Scholarship by an authorized administrator of BrooklynWorks. Copwatching Jocelyn Simonson* This Article explores the phenomenon of organized copwatching-groups of local residents who wear uniforms, carry visible recording devices, patrol neighborhoods, and film police- citizen interactions in an effort to hold police departments accountable to the populations they police. The Article argues that the practice of copwatching illustrates both the promise of adversarialism as a form of civic engagement and the potential of traditionally powerless populations to contribute to constitutional norms governing police conduct. Organized copwatching serves a unique function in the world of police accountability by giving these populations a vehicle through which to have direct, real-time input into policing decisions that affect their neighborhoods. Many scholars recognize that a lack ofpublic participationis a barrier to true police accountability. When searchingfor solutions these same scholars often focus on studying and perfecting consensus-based methods of participation such as community policing, and neglect the study of more adversarial, confrontational forms of localparticipation in policing. By analyzing copwatching as a form of public participation,this Article challenges the scholarly focus on consensus-based strategies of police accountability. The Article urges scholars and reformers to take adversarial,bottom-up mechanisms of police accountability seriously-not just as protest, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15779/Z38SK27 Copyright © 2016 California Law Review, Inc.

  • Keeping Citizenship Rights White: Arizona's Racial Profiling Practices in Immigration Law Enforcement
    K E EPIN G C I T I Z E NSH IP RI G H TS W H I T E : A RI Z O N A’S R A C I A L PR O F I L IN G PR A C T I C ES IN I M M I G R A T I O N L A W E N F O R C E M E N T Mary Romero1 IN T R O DU C T I O N This article analyzes policing practices that result in the mistreatment of citizens and immigrants of color in Arizona and argues that discriminatory and discretionary policing, by both formal and informal means, connects citizenship rights to race. The article begins with an overview of racial profiling and by reviewing the conceptual frameworks primarily applied to the Black experience in the U.S. and demonstrate the usefulness of those frameworks in analyzing the experience of Latinos in the U.S. Next, the article identifies law enforcement racial profiling practices and examines the relationship between those practices and other discretionary powers used by law enforcement to deny Latinos the same treatment as white citizens or white immigrants. Then, drawing on newspaper accounts, law enforcement reports, human and civil rights reports, and lawsuits filed against Maricopa County, the article discusses the risk that citizens and immigrants of color face as a result of racial profiling in immigration law enforcement. This section focuses on narratives from Melendres v. Arpaio and a similar care involving Velia Meraz and her brother Manuel Nieto.

  • Resisting Law Enforcement Violence
    RESISTING LAW ENFORCEMENT VIOLENCE OK, so what can we do about law enforcement violence against women of color and trans people of color? TALK ABOUT IT! Get together with other anti-violence or anti-police brutality activists and talk about it! Do a workshop based on the fact sheets in this toolkit — a sample workshop is included. Organize a community forum. You'll be surprised how many experiences are voiced which have previously been silenced! If you would like someone from INCITE! to work with you on having a workshop or forum in your community or organization, contact us at [email protected]. Ask yourselves and your allies how you can work to better document and address law enforcement violence against women of color and trans people of color and build for safer communities as part of your organizing! DOCUMENT IT! Art by Cristy C. Road, croadcore.org There is very little information available on law enforcement violence against women and transgender people of color. Once you’ve had a few conversations with others about it, you may decide to more intentionally document the experiences of women of color and transgender people of color with law enforcement in your area. Documentation can be a critical step to raising awareness of the issue — within and beyond our communities — and a tool to reach, organize and support the leadership of people most affected. Some documentation ideas: When the city of Washington, D.C. created “prostitution-free zones”, escalating policing of sex work, Different Avenues decided to do a participatory research project to look at where this policy came from and its impacts on people who are, or are perceived to be, sex workers.

Rosler wondered – decades ago, now – if documentary photography could ever supersede its benign liberal origins and become, in her own words, radical. Sekula feared our inattentiveness to the tool’s equal use by the state to repressive ends. By addressing the past preoccupations of the arch- documentarians, this thesis attempts to find the state of documentary and image-making in the contemporary. This paper consists of three parts: the first, which deals with the battle surrounding image-making in public as embodied by copwatching; the second, which more directly addresses the impact of cell phones on documentary, the decline of professional news photography, and the rise of a new subject-author; and the last, which considers the operation of the drone and the images it produces.
