Taking Intellectual Property Into Their Own Hands
Taking Intellectual Property into Their Own Hands Amy Adler* & Jeanne C. Fromer** When we think about people seeking relief for infringement of their intellectual property rights under copyright and trademark laws, we typically assume they will operate within an overtly legal scheme. By contrast, creators of works that lie outside the subject matter, or at least outside the heartland, of intellectual property law often remedy copying of their works by asserting extralegal norms within their own tight-knit communities. In recent years, however, there has been a growing third category of relief-seekers: those taking intellectual property into their own hands, seeking relief outside the legal system for copying of works that fall well within the heartland of copyright or trademark laws, such as visual art, music, and fashion. They exercise intellectual property self-help in a constellation of ways. Most frequently, they use shaming, principally through social media or a similar platform, to call out perceived misappropriations. Other times, they reappropriate perceived misappropriations, therein generating new creative works. This Article identifies, illustrates, and analyzes this phenomenon using a diverse array of recent examples. Aggrieved creators can use self-help of the sorts we describe to accomplish much of what they hope to derive from successful infringement litigation: collect monetary damages, stop the appropriation, insist on attribution of their work, and correct potential misattributions of a misappropriation. We evaluate the benefits and demerits of intellectual property self-help as compared with more traditional intellectual property enforcement.

Jew Taboo: Jewish Difference and the Affirmative Action Debate
The Jew Taboo: Jewish Difference and the Affirmative Action Debate DEBORAH C. MALAMUD* One of the most important questions for a serious debate on affirmative action is why certain minority groups need affirmative action while others have succeeded without it. The question is rarely asked, however, because the comparisonthat most frequently comes to mind-i.e., blacks and Jews-is seen by many as taboo. Daniel A. Farberand Suzanna Sherry have breached that taboo in recent writings. ProfessorMalamud's Article draws on work in the Jewish Studies field to respond to Farberand Sherry. It begins by critiquing their claim that Jewish values account for Jewish success. It then explores and embraces alternative explanations-some of which Farberand Sheny reject as anti-Semitic-as essentialparts of the story ofJewish success in America. 1 Jews arepeople who are not what anti-Semitessay they are. Jean-Paul Sartre ha[s] written that for Jews authenticity means not to deny what in fact they are. Yes, but it also means not to claim more than one has a right to.2 Defenders of affirmative action today are publicly faced with questions once thought improper in polite company. For Jewish liberals, the most disturbing question on the list is that posed by the comparison between the twentieth-century Jewish and African-American experiences in the United States. It goes something like this: The Jews succeeded in America without affirmative action. In fact, the Jews have done better on any reasonable measure of economic and educational achievement than members of the dominant majority, and began to succeed even while they were still being discriminated against by this country's elite institutions. -

What Gordon Parks Witnessed
What Gordon Parks Witnessed The injustices of Jim Crow and the evolution of a great American photographer Tenement residents in Chicago in 1950. (Courtesy of and © the Gordon Parks Foundation) Story by David Rowell DECEMBER 3, 2018 Photos by Gordon Parks When 29-year-old Gordon Parks arrived in Washington, in 1942, to begin his prestigious job as a photographer at the Farm Security Administration, his first assignment was to shoot: nothing. The government agency, which was born of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, had originally intended to highlight rural suffering and the plight of farmers, but that mission quickly expanded to producing a vast visual record of American life. Overseen by Roy Stryker, chief of the photography unit within the agency’s historical section, the collection was a stunning, often sobering artistic vehicle for depicting the ways the government was both serving and failing its citizens. Parks had come to the FSA on a fellowship after being a staff photographer for the St. Paul Recorder newspaper and doing commercial freelance work, but he also hadn’t bought his first camera until 1937, and Stryker knew the photographer still had much to learn. First, as Parks recounted in his 1966 memoir “A Choice of Weapons,” Stryker had Parks show him his cameras — a Speed Graphic and a Rolleiflex — and promptly locked them in a cabinet. “You won’t be needing those for a few days,” the boss said. Instead, he asked his new photographer — who was raised in Kansas but also lived in Minnesota and later in Chicago — to eat in some restaurants, shop in stores, take in a movie. -
The Television Project: Some of My Best Friends
The Television Project: Some of My Best Friends Highlights from the National Jewish Archive of Broadcasting Examine Anti-Semitism Through Classic TV Beginning March 18, 2016 New York, NY – With the second installment of its new, ongoing exhibition series, the Jewish Museum will continue introducing visitors to a dynamic part of its collection: the National Jewish Archive of Broadcasting (NJAB). The Television Project: Some of My Best Friends will be on view from March 18 through August 14, 2016 exploring the full range of the medium’s approach to anti-Semitism, from the satire and humor of the situation comedy to serious dramas that dissect the origins, motivations, and consequences of prejudice. Clips from such programs as All in the Family, Downton Abbey, Mad Men, Gunsmoke, and The Mary Tyler Moore Show will be featured. Some of My Best Friends features Mary Richards standing up to an anti- Semitic friend in The Mary Tyler Moore Show, “Some of My Best Friends Are Rhoda;” Jews fighting to prevent neo-Nazis from holding a rally in a predominantly Jewish town in Skokie; and Jewish emigrants confronting hatred in the Old West in the Gunsmoke episode, “This Golden Land” (featuring a young Richard Dreyfuss) and Little House on the Prairie, “The Craftsman.” Also included are clips from the first episode of the acclaimed Mad Men, where Roger Sterling suggests to Don Draper that their ad agency hire a Jew prior to meeting with a new Jewish-owned client; an LA Law segment, “Rohner vs. Gradinger,” depicting a confrontation between a Jewish lawyer and his Jew-hating WASP mother-in-law and her close friend; the bigoted Archie Bunker looking for a “Jew lawyer” because Jews are “smarter and shrewder” in Norman Lear’s groundbreaking All in the Family, “Oh, My Aching Back;” and a scene from Downton Abbey showing the family matriarch (Maggie Smith) expressing displeasure at news of a cousin romantically involved with a Jew. -

View of His New Work
Artist Robert Longo Gives a Preview of His New Work www.culturedmag.com /robert-longo/ Self-portrait by Robert Longo. The acclaimed artist Robert Longo was already a feisty, passionate, pugnacious sort. And his work reflected it. Then, four years ago, he had a stroke. Longo remembers that he was playing basketball—with a group of close friends that included the actor John Turturro—and then suddenly he was flat on his back, listening to his wife and Turturro talk to doctors about what the chances were that his life could be saved. As the saying goes, what didn’t kill him made him stronger, or at least more committed. “I saw the dark rider, bro,” says Longo, 64, who is the type of person who says “bro.” He adds, “But if anything, since the stroke I’ve been on fire.” Indeed, Longo has shows galore lined up, and his Downtown Manhattan studio is full of detailed maquettes showing dollhouse-sized versions of each exhibition. Most prominently, he has a show, “The Destroyer Cycle,” opening May 3 at his longtime gallery, New York’s Metro Pictures, and the exhibition that was at Moscow’s Garage last year, “Proof: Francisco Goya, Sergei Eisenstein, Robert Longo,” opens at the Brooklyn Museum in September. 1/4 His post-stroke bounce back shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise. Longo—who is known for his striking, incredibly detailed charcoal drawings that meld image-appropriating photorealism and old-school draftsmanship— has come back from oblivion before. “I’ve experienced someone throwing a switch and my career seemed to be over,” he says. -
Dia Art Foundation Readings in Contemporary Poetry Major Jackson and Peter Schjeldahl
Dia Art Foundation Readings in Contemporary Poetry Major Jackson and Peter Schjeldahl Tuesday, March 5, 2019 Dia:Chelsea 535 West 22nd Street, 5th Floor New York City Introduction by Vincent Katz Major Jackson’s books of poems include Leaving Saturn (University of Georgia Press, 2002), Hoops (W. W. Norton & Company, 2006), Holding Company (W. W. Norton & Company, 2010), and Roll Deep (W. W. Norton & Company, 2015). Jackson is the Richard Dennis Green and Gold University Distinguished Professor in the department of English at University of Vermont, Burlington, and a graduate faculty member of the Creative Writing Program at New York University. He serves as the poetry editor of the Harvard Review. Many of the references in Major Jackson’s poetry - e.g. “I better git it in my soul” - are known to me, and many others are not. They all intrigue me to know more. The title of his most recent volume, Roll Deep, seemed to me as though it might come from football; I intuit a physicality there, a sense of simultaneous mobility and pleasurable stasis. Deep too as in profound. A more in-depth study revealed the phrase refers to the comfort zone of one’s posse. In this case, Jackson extends that to his wife, Didi, to whom the volume is dedicated, and their children, and beyond, via quotes from Lord Byron, Langston Hughes, and others. Jackson has always been extending, in his poetry, from his first book, Leaving Saturn, which established in vivid detail his North Philadelphia roots, to recent poems from the ongoing sequence “Urban Renewal,” set in the Cyclades, Spain, Brazil, Kenya, and Italy.
