  • Women of Color and the Struggle for Reproductive Justice IF/WHEN/HOW ISSUE BRIEF 2 WOMEN of COLOR and the STRUGGLE for REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE / IF/WHEN/HOW ISSUE BRIEF
    Women of Color and the Struggle for Reproductive Justice IF/WHEN/HOW ISSUE BRIEF 2 WOMEN OF COLOR AND THE STRUGGLE FOR REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE / IF/WHEN/HOW ISSUE BRIEF Contents INTRODUCTION 3 AFRICAN-AMERICAN 3 NATIVE AMERICAN AND ALASKA NATIVE (INDIGENOUS) 5 ASIAN-AMERICAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDER (API) 5 LATIN@ (HISPANIC) 6 3 WOMEN OF COLOR AND THE STRUGGLE FOR REPRODUCTIVE JUSTICE / IF/WHEN/HOW ISSUE BRIEF INTRODUCTION If/When/How recognizes that most law school courses are not applying an intersectional, reproductive justice lens to complex issues. To address this gap, our issue briefs and primers are designed to illustrate how law and policies disparately impact individuals and communities. If/When/How is committed to transforming legal education by providing students, instructors, and practitioners with the tools and support they need to utilize an intersectional approach. If/When/How, formerly Law Students for Reproductive Justice, trains, networks, and mobilizes law students and legal professionals to work within and beyond the legal system to champion reproductive justice. We work in partnership with local organizations and national movements to ensure all people have the ability to decide if, when, and how to create and sustain a family. AFRICAN-AMERICAN Due to continuing institutionalized racism and a history of reproductive oppression,1 many African-Americans today have limited access to adequate reproductive healthcare, higher rates of reproductive health issues, and are disproportionately impacted by restrictions on family health services.2 Low-income people are especially likely to lack control over their reproductive choices, and in 2011, 25.9% of African-Americans lived at or below the poverty level, compared to 10.6% of non-Hispanic white people.3 Pregnancy: • 67% of African-Americans’ pregnancies are unintended, compared to 40% for non-Hispanic, white people.4 • Ectopic pregnancy rates in African-Americans have declined more slowly than the national rate.

Open access: Radical Americas is a peer-reviewed open access journal. Abstract In 1951, black radical William Patterson presented the United Nations with a petition, emblazoned with the title We Charge Genocide. The document charged the US government with snuffing out tens of thousands of black lives each year, through police violence and the systemic neglect of black citizens’ well-being. While historians have tended to discuss We Charge Genocide as a remarkable but brief episode, the petition built on prior attempts to invoke international law on behalf of African Americans and resonated with later generations of black activists whose political activism transcended more limited and domestic notions of civil rights.

  • Academic Calendar Resolution
    Academic Calendar Resolution Presented by: Professor Jeffrey J. Doyle, Committee Chair Professor Kate Walsh, Committee Vice‐Chair Academic Calendar Resolution Therefore be it resolved that the University Faculty Senate adopt the proposed academic calendar: Fall schedule includes 68 days of instruction and 12 Mondays. Spring schedule includes 69 days of instruction and 13 Mondays. Thirteen study and exam days Five study days (including a Sunday break in the middle of exams in the Fall, and a Friday break in the middle of exams in the Spring) Eight days of exams (including Saturday in the Fall and Saturday and Sunday in the Spring) Calendar Revision Objectives Reexamine the existing academic calendar to propose changes that will: 1. Afford optimal educational opportunities for both students and faculty. 2. Address concerns about student stress and mental health related to prolonged periods of instruction without multiday breaks. 3. Comply with New York State Education Department requirements. Proposed Calendar: Fall Semester Highlights Labor Day holiday and Fall break remain. Insertion of full day break Wednesday before Thanksgiving. To be in compliance with state education requirements, we need to add the additional day at the start of semester. Classes begin Tuesday before Labor Day. In most years, it is one day earlier. Once every six years, it is six days later than when we begin now. Classes end on a Friday, in most years, one week after Thanksgiving break. Issues Some faculty would prefer as late a start as possible. Orientation Proposed Calendar: Spring Semester Highlights Memorial Day Weekend Commencement. Martin Luther King, Jr. day would become a university holiday.

  • Preliminary Thoughts on the Plight of America's Poor Black
    Black Genocide? Preliminary Thoughts on the Plight of America’s Poor Black Men By Robert Johnson and Paul Leighton Journal of African American Men, v 1 #2, Fall 1995 Downloaded from http://paulsjusticepage.com > Class, Race, Gender & Crime ABSTRACT: Our aim in this article is to offer an examination and preliminary defense of the claim heard frequently these days that poor African American men are subjected to conditions of life that are sufficiently destructive to amount to an instance of genocide. To make our case, we define the term genocide and apply measures of this phenomenon to the life experiences of poor black American men. Our focus is on grossly disproportionate death rates among this group, which we examine as one of a number of products of social deprivation. The emphasis is on understanding indirect genocide, which involves creating life conditions which destroy a group and facilitate black on black violence. "Not since slavery," notes former U.S. Secretary of Human Services Dr. Louis Sullivan, "has so much calamity and ongoing catastrophe been visited on Black males" (Majors & Gordon, 1994:ix). The calamities and catastrophes to which Dr. Sullivan alludes fall disproportionately on poor black males, especially the poor young black men who inhabit our nation's ghettos. This has led many observers to characterize poor black men as an endangered species (see Gibbs, 1988). Mortality data and other social indicators, discussed in this article, suggest that Dr. Sullivan's observation is fundamentally correct, particularly when it is applied to the plight of poor black men. The notion that these men comprise an endangered species is, however, a misleading and ultimately counterproductive one.' A more accurate view, though we can offer only tentative proof and argument at this juncture, is that such men may be victims of genocide.
