  • Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism
    Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism By Matthew W. Horton A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Dr. Na’ilah Nasir, Chair Dr. Daniel Perlstein Dr. Keith Feldman Summer 2019 Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions Matthew W. Horton 2019 ABSTRACT Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism by Matthew W. Horton Doctor of Philosophy in Education and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory University of California, Berkeley Professor Na’ilah Nasir, Chair This dissertation is an intervention into Critical Whiteness Studies, an ‘additional movement’ to Ethnic Studies and Critical Race Theory. It systematically analyzes key contradictions in working against racism from a white subject positions under post-Civil Rights Movement liberal color-blind white hegemony and "Black Power" counter-hegemony through a critical assessment of two major competing projects in theory and practice: white anti-racism [Part 1] and New Abolitionism [Part 2]. I argue that while white anti-racism is eminently practical, its efforts to hegemonically rearticulate white are overly optimistic, tend toward renaturalizing whiteness, and are problematically dependent on collaboration with people of color. I further argue that while New Abolitionism has popularized and advanced an alternative approach to whiteness which understands whiteness as ‘nothing but oppressive and false’ and seeks to ‘abolish the white race’, its ultimately class-centered conceptualization of race and idealization of militant nonconformity has failed to realize effective practice.

  • Bio Rick Russ
    Биография Рика Эллисона Рик Эллисон (настоящее имя Эрик Влеминкс), родившийся 17 июля 1964 года в Брюсселе, является бельгийским певцом и автором песен. При своем первом отъезде в декабре 1987 года его вызвали в студию и предложили заменить гитариста Пьера Шерреса в музыкальную комедию для детей с Джином Мартином в Берси. Его второе отправление В брюссельской студии в 26 лет его вечера проводятся в пиано-баре города: Le Crescendo. Он замечает голос Лары Фабиан, которая исполняет «La fille d'Ipanema». Они пишут свои первые песни вместе и отправятся в Монреаль, чтобы продолжить создание своего одноименного первого альбома. Монреаль 1990 - 1997 Во время своего первого пребывания в Монреале оба артиста договорились провести серию вокальных выступлений под сопровождение пианино в апреле 1991 года. Не получив от звукозаписывающей компании никакой поддержки в отношении первого альбома, Рик создал свой собственный лейбл и начал раскрутку альбома, который через два года будет сертифицирован золотой пластинкой, затем платиновой. Затем Рик спродюсировал альбом Carpe Diem, который вышел в 1994 году, после чего последовало более 200 концертов: этот альбом показал Лару Фабиан широкой аудитории и несколько раз был сертифицирован как платиновый в Канаде. Включая песню « Si tu m'aimes". В 1995 году они получили канадское гражданство и работали над третьим альбомом, в который они включили авторов песен, включая Даниеля Сеффа и Даниеля Лавуа. Затем альбом «Pure» был представлен публике с песнями, написанными Ларой и Риком: « Tout » ,« Je T’aime », "Humana". После очередного шоу-тура Лары, Рик подписывает контракт с Polydor в марте 1997 года для выпуска альбомов в Европе. В феврале 1998 года Лара была награждена званием «Открытие года» на премии «Victoires de la Musique».
