Sharing what we know and what we are doing will bring us closer to making it a reality. Regional growth and development patterns profoundly impact the life circumstances and outcomes of low- income people and communities of color. Too many people are isolated in neighborhoods without living wage jobs or public transit to reach employment in other parts of the region. Too many children struggle in poor quality, deteriorating schools. Too many people live in communities with poor air and water quality and disease-causing toxic sites. Too many neighborhoods lack basic services like supermarkets, banks, safe parks, and inviting public spaces. In the coming years, the American population will continue to grow and decisions will be made about how, where, and what to build in response. We must work to ensure that growth and development now Angela Glover L. Benjamin Starrett and in the future increases opportunity for all people.

  • "Alternative Facts" and Hate: Regulating Conspiracy Theories That Take The
    Hay Book Proof (Do Not Delete) 6/30/20 7:10 PM “ALTERNATIVE FACTS” AND HATE: REGULATING CONSPIRACY THEORIES THAT TAKE THE FORM OF HATEFUL FALSITY SAMANTHA HAY I. INTRODUCTION Prepare for the invasion! Hurry, a caravan of migrants, MS-13 gang members, and terrorists forcefully march on our southern border. Don’t be fooled by their asylee disguise and the children that accompany them; these people are dangerous and well funded by Jewish globalist George Soros. They are coming to invade our country. This is the all too familiar caravan narrative. It is a falsity, built upon the large group of migrants journeying to the United States in the hopes of declaring asylum. Both the invasion itself and the Jewish globalists’ role as puppeteers are falsehoods. The “narrative” is also an expression of hate— hate of immigrants, Central and Latin Americans, and Jews. The false narrative spread from conspiracy theorists’ inner circles, making its way to widely followed media outlets, cable news, and then President Trump’s Twitter feed.1 USA Today traced the conspiracy theory’s focus on George Soros’ involvement to an internet post from October 14, 2018, by a conspiracy theorist with six thousand followers who frequently posts about “white genocide.”2 Within hours, it appeared on six Facebook pages whose membership totaled over 165,000 users; just four days later this portion of the conspiracy theory reached over two million people.3 It continued to spread like wildfire from there, making its way to mainstream platforms. This speech is false speech. This speech is hateful speech.

  • The Digital Experience of Jewish Lawmakers
    Online Hate Index Report: The Digital Experience of Jewish Lawmakers Sections 1 Executive Summary 4 Methodology 2 Introduction 5 Recommendations 3 Findings 6 Endnotes 7 Donor Acknowledgment EXECUTIVE SUMMARY In late 2018, Pew Research Center reported that social media sites had surpassed print newspapers as a news source for Americans, when one in five U.S. adults reported that they often got news via social media.i By the following year, that 1 / 49 figure had increased to 28% and the trend is only risingii. Combine that with a deeply divided polity headed into a bitterly divisive 2020 U.S. presidential election season and it becomes crucial to understand the information that Americans are exposed to online about political candidates and the topics they are discussing. It is equally important to explore how online discourse might be used to intentionally distort information and create and exploit misgivings about particular identity groups based on religion, race or other characteristics. In this report, we are bringing together the topic of online attempts to sow divisiveness and misinformation around elections on the one hand, and antisemitism on the other, in order to take a look at the type of antisemitic tropes and misinformation used to attack incumbent Jewish members of the U.S Congress who are running for re-election. This analysis was aided by the Online Hate Index (OHI), a tool currently in development within the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) Center for Technology and Society (CTS) that is being designed to automate the process of detecting hate speech on online platforms. Applied to Twitter in this case study, OHI provided a score for each tweet which denote the confidence (in percentage terms) in classifying the subject tweet as antisemitic.

  • A Global Alliance for Open Society
    INTRODUCTION A Global Alliance for Open Society The goal of the Soros foundations network throughout the world is to transform closed societies into open ones and to protect and expand the values of existing open societies. In pursuit of this mission, the Open Society Institute (OSI) and the foundations established and supported by George Soros seek to strengthen open society principles and practices against authoritarian regimes and the negative consequences of globalization. The Soros network supports efforts in civil society, education, media, public health, and human and women’s rights, as well as social, legal, and economic reform. 6 SOROS FOUNDATIONS NETWORK | 2001 REPORT Our foundations and programs operate in more than ࡯ national government aid agencies, including the 50 countries in Central and Eastern Europe, the former United States Agency for International Soviet Union, Africa, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and Development (USAID), Britain’s Department for the United States.

  • How White Supremacy Returned to Mainstream Politics
    GETTY CORUM IMAGES/SAMUEL How White Supremacy Returned to Mainstream Politics By Simon Clark July 2020 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG How White Supremacy Returned to Mainstream Politics By Simon Clark July 2020 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 4 Tracing the origins of white supremacist ideas 13 How did this start, and how can it end? 16 Conclusion 17 About the author and acknowledgments 18 Endnotes Introduction and summary The United States is living through a moment of profound and positive change in attitudes toward race, with a large majority of citizens1 coming to grips with the deeply embedded historical legacy of racist structures and ideas. The recent protests and public reaction to George Floyd’s murder are a testament to many individu- als’ deep commitment to renewing the founding ideals of the republic. But there is another, more dangerous, side to this debate—one that seeks to rehabilitate toxic political notions of racial superiority, stokes fear of immigrants and minorities to inflame grievances for political ends, and attempts to build a notion of an embat- tled white majority which has to defend its power by any means necessary. These notions, once the preserve of fringe white nationalist groups, have increasingly infiltrated the mainstream of American political and cultural discussion, with poi- sonous results. For a starting point, one must look no further than President Donald Trump’s senior adviser for policy and chief speechwriter, Stephen Miller. In December 2019, the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Hatewatch published a cache of more than 900 emails2 Miller wrote to his contacts at Breitbart News before the 2016 presidential election.

    McCormick is part of the racist movement that promotes conspiracies against Black Americans. McCormick says the Black Lives Matter movement is being used to "incite violence," that the Democratic Party is manipulating Black voters, and that Black people see themselves as “victims.” McCormick Appeared On “Malcolm Out Loud” And Peddled A Conspiracy Theory That George Soros Put $20 Million Into GA-07. MCCORMICK (23:19) “And so the 7th (District) is their next battleground. They’re going to be investing millions and millions – tens of millions of dollars into this race.

  • The Rebirth of America's Urban Neighborhoods
    House by House, Block by Block: The Rebirth of America’s Urban Neighborhoods ALEXANDER VON HOFFMAN OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS BOSTON AND THE POWER OF COLLABORATION In 1971, Bob Haas, a twenty-seven-year-old engineer and classical piano player, moved to a commune in a large broken-down Victorian house in a section of the Boston Dorchester district known as Upham's Corner. Haas loved the his­ tory and vitality of Dorchester—a streetcar-era place where first the Irish and then other ethnic groups had made their home in “Baahston”—and a few years later bought the old house from his roommates. Upham's Corner, however, was a neighborhood in crisis. M any poor Afri­ can Americans and Puerto Ricans lived there. Houses caught on fire and were abandoned. Stores, including the neighborhood supermarket, closed. During his first ten years in Upham's Corner, Haas's house was burglarized twenty- three times. Children on his street grew up, joined gangs, took crack cocaine, and murdered or were murdered. At first Haas naively thought that if he repaired his house, others would do the same, and the neighborhood would come back. When that did not work, he organized a neighborhood association. That did not stem the tide either, and in 1979 he and members of three neighborhood associations founded the Dorchester Bay Economic Development Corporation (Dorchester Bay EDC). Excited by its potential, Haas in 1985 gave up his other careers to become a full-time staff member and spent sixteen years as director of planning. It took a few years, but this last effort began to show tangible results.

  • 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.

  • 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.
