  • Women's March on Washington Speech for Carmen Perez
    Women’s March on Washington Speech For Carmen Perez Good afternoon family. My name is Carmen Perez, and I'm the executive director of the gathering for justice and the founder of Justice league NYC and California. I am truly humbled to join and serve you as one of the national co-chairs of the women's March alongside my sistren Tamika Mallory, Linda Sarsour and Bob Bland. As well as so many who have worked so hard to make today happen. Thank you! I stand here as a Chicana Mexican-American Woman. As the daughter and granddaughter of farm workers. As the family member of incarcerated and undocumented people. As a survivor of domestic violence. As a woman who knows pain. And who has transformed her pain into gifts. Gifts that have allowed me to see light in the darkest places. For twenty years, I have worked in America’s prisons. I have seen families being torn apart. Locked up in cages. Forgotten and silenced. Many stripped of their rights, their freedoms, And ultimately, their lives. And the majority are black and brown people – including women. Women who I call my sisters . This HAS TO END. This WILL end. Because of you. Because of us. Today I join you all and raise my voice loud and clear to say WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH. We know what the problems are. We know who our enemy is. We know what the injustices have done to us and those we love. But to overcome them we have to stand in solidarity. We have to listen to each other and know that we always have more to learn.

Washington University Law Review VOLUME 98 NUMBER 4 2021 POLICE PROSECUTIONS AND PUNITIVE INSTINCTS KATE LEVINE* ABSTRACT This Article makes two contributions to the fields of policing and criminal legal scholarship. First, it sounds a cautionary note about the use of individual prosecutions to remedy police brutality. It argues that the calls for ways to ease the path to more police prosecutions from legal scholars, reformers, and advocates who, at the same time, advocate for a dramatic reduction of the criminal legal system’s footprint, are deeply problematic. It shows that police prosecutions legitimize the criminal legal system while at the same time displaying the same racism and ineffectiveness that have been shown to pervade our prison-backed criminal machinery. The Article looks at three recent trials and convictions of police officers of color, Peter Liang, Mohammed Noor, and Nouman Raja, in order to underscore the argument that the criminal legal system’s race problems are * Associate Professor of Law, Benjamin N.

  • Modern Antisemitism in Progressive Circles?
    Denison University Denison Digital Commons Denison Student Scholarship 2021 Modern Antisemitism in Progressive Circles? Jacob Dennen Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.denison.edu/studentscholarship Modern Antisemitism in Progressive Circles? Jacob Dennen Dr. Paul A. Djupe, Advisor Senior Honors Research Abstract In recent years, anti-Zionism and anti-Israel rhetoric have become hallmarks of the American Left. Moreover, many on the Left have downplayed or denied the severity of antisemitism. This paper seeks to determine how widespread overt and latent antisemitism are among the Left. More specically, it seeks to determine if there is a double standard applied to antisemitism that could be indicative of latent antisemitism as well as if the anti-Zionist rhetoric is the result of latent antisemitism. To do so, respondents in a nationally-representative survey were given questions designed to determine overt antisemitism, as well as two dierent experiments designed to elicit latent antisemitism. The results showed that latent antisemitism does not appear for any of the ideological groups on the Left in the context of ghting discrimination. However, it does appear among Liberals as it relates to self-determination and Progressives when Israel is mentioned. These ndings help illuminate how the Left views antisemitism, the relationship between anti-Zionism and the Left, as well as how widespread latent and overt antisemitism are among the Left. 1 Introduction Where the Right ghts for freedom and liberty, the Left ghts for equality and egalitarianism. The Left has been actively involved in feminism, anti-racism, and the ght for LGBTQ rights and equality. Although each movement comes and goes in intensity and scope with the current focus on anti-racism, the Left readily calls out sexism, homophobia/transphobia, racism, and other forms of prejudice when they appear.

  • The Trump Resistance's
    THE TRUMP RESISTANCE’S REPERTOIRE OF CONTENTION The Trump Resistance’s Rep- ertoire of Contention and its Practice of Civil Disobedience (2016-2018) Charlotte Thomas-Hébert Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne European Center for Sociology and Political Science (CESSP) France Abstract: The Resistance, formed in opposition to Donald Trump, has seen progressive groups ally in marches and ral- lies all over the United States. Yet one of its most striking fea- tures is that there have been few acts of civil disobedience. Using the tools of social movement studies and political soci- ology as well as ethnographic data, this paper investigates why breaking the law has not been a more popular form of nonvio- lent direct action, and why activists seemed to favor permitted marches at a time when civil disobedience had become if not le- gitimate, at least increasingly accepted as a democratic practice. 1 SOCIETY OF AMERICANISTS REVIEW he election of Barack Obama as well as the Great Reces- sion of 2008 marked a subsequent revival of protest poli- Ttics in the United States, with movements ranging from campaigns for better living wages such as Fight for $15, Black Lives Matter actions against police brutality and institutional racism and strikes in the public sector (Wisconsin in 2011, the Chicago teach- ers’ strike of 2012). Additional protest politics movements include the “Nonviolent Moral Fusion Direct Actions” of the Moral Mon- days in the South in 2013 and Occupy in 2011, that held public space in opposition to “corporate greed” and the financialization of the economy. If these movements have adopted different strategies and repertoires of contention, they have stayed clear of electoral politics and have criticized the legitimacy of the American political system.
