    9/2016 From one movement to another? Comparing environmental justice activism and food justice alternative practices. Flaminia PADDEU , PhD in geography, member of the ENeC research laboratory, ATER at Sorbonne University (Paris, France), agrégée in geography and graduate from the École Normale Supérieure (Lyon, France). Abstract Food justice activism is generally considered to be an offshoot of environmental justice. We question this lineage based on empirical elements by comparing the two movements in terms of theoretical objectives, daily practices and strategies. Our material comes from the study of two grassroots movements in low-income neighborhoods in the United States – environmental justice in Hunts Point (South Bronx) and food justice in Jefferson-Mack (Detroit) – where we conducted field surveys between 2011 and 2013, interviewing more than sixty stakeholders. We demonstrate how environmental justice activism in the Bronx is the expression of a protest model, involving rallying against polluting infrastructures, whereas food justice alternative practices in Detroit are characterized by the organization of community food security networks. Despite similarities between the two movements, we strongly challenge their “lineage”. Not only do the types of collective action and the catalysts differ markedly, but each of the two movements has evolved relatively independently in the context of an assertion of the food justice movement. Key words South Bronx; Detroit; food justice; environmental justice; alternative practices. 1 1 9/2016 The food justice movement is generally considered to be an offshoot of the environmental justice movement, and the lineages between the two movements were first emphasized in the 1990s (Gottlieb & Fisher, 1996). The term food justice was first used in scientific journals specialized in environmental justice such as Race, Poverty and the Environment (Gottlieb & Fisher, 2000).

  • Toni Morrison: the Pieces I Am
    TONI MORRISON: THE PIECES I AM A Film by Timothy Greenfield-Sanders LOGLINE This artful and intimate meditation on legendary storyteller Toni Morrison examines her life, her works and the powerful themes she has confronted throughout her literary career. Morrison leads an assembly of her peers, critics and colleagues on an exploration of race, history, America and the human condition. SYNOPSIS Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am offers an artful and intimate meditation on the life and works of the legendary storyteller and Nobel prize-winner. From her childhood in the steel town of Lorain, Ohio to ‘70s-era book tours with Muhammad Ali, from the front lines with Angela Davis to her own riverfront writing room, Toni Morrison leads an assembly of her peers, critics and colleagues on an exploration of race, America, history and the human condition as seen through the prism of her own literature. Inspired to write because no one took a “little black girl” seriously, Morrison reflects on her lifelong deconstruction of the master narrative. Woven together with a rich collection of art, history, literature and personality, the film includes discussions about her many critically acclaimed works, including novels “The Bluest Eye,” “Sula” and “Song of Solomon,” her role as an editor of iconic African-American literature and her time teaching at Princeton University. In addition to Ms. Morrison, the film features interviews with Hilton Als, Angela Davis, Fran Lebowitz, Walter Mosley, Sonia Sanchez and Oprah Winfrey, who turned Morrison’s novel “Beloved” into a feature film. Using Timothy Greenfield-Sanders’ elegant portrait- style interviews, Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am includes original music by Kathryn Bostic, a specially created opening sequence by artist Mickalene Thomas, and evocative works by other contemporary African-American artists including Kara Walker, Rashid Johnson and Kerry James Marshall.

  • The Tragic Life of John Kennedy Toole
    285 ©2013 The Institute of Mind and Behavior, Inc. The Journal of Mind and Behavior Summer and Autumn 2013, Volume 34, Numbers 3 and 4 Pages 285 –298 ISSN 0271 –0137 ButterflyintheTypewriter:TheTragicLifeofJohnKennedyTooleandthe RemarkableStoryof A Confederacy of Dunces . Cory MacLauchlin. Boston and New York: Da Capo Press, 2012, 319 pages, $26.00 hardcover. Reviewed by Leslie Marsh, University of British Columbia The book is not autobiography; neither is it altogether invention. While the plot is manipulation and juxtaposition of characters, with one or two exceptions the people and places in the book are drawn from observation and experience. I am not in the book; I’ve never pretended to be. But I am writing about things that I know, and in recounting these, it’s difficult not to feel them. No doubt this is why there’s so much of [Ignatius] and why his verbosity becomes tiring. It’s really not his verbosity but mine. And the book, begun one Sunday afternoon, became a way of life. With Ignatius as an agent, my New Orleans experiences began to fit in, one after the other, and then I was simply observing and not inventing . John Kennedy Toole [pp. 178 –179] 1 Where does the boundary between the protagonist George Arthur Rose ( Hadrian the Seventh , 1904) and his creator Frederick Rolfe (a.k.a. Baron Corvo) lie? The same question can be asked of a handful of other twentieth-century literary titans, including Franz Kafka, Robert Musil, and Yukio Mishima. Joseph K. has been taken to be Kafka’s alter ego in Der Prozess (The Trial , 1925), as has Ulrich in Musil’s Der Mann ohne Eigenschaften (The Man Without Qualities , 1930–1942), and Kochan for Mishima in Kamen no Kokuhaku (Confessions of a Mask , 1949).

The dead bodies of Toussaint’s doctor and his wife lie in the backseat. When Nick crashes the car, police chief Martin Krug becomes involved in the case. Despite an easy murder confession from Nick, something doesn’t quite add up for the soon-to-be retired Krug. An itch he can’t help but scratch. Nick is extradited to his hometown of Claymore, New Hampshire—a New England beach town full of colorful characters, bed-and-breakfasts, and outlet malls—where the local scandal rocks the residents. Meanwhile his girlfriend, sixteen-year-old Emily Portis, rallies behind her boyfriend, her protector. THE LAST KID LEFT charts the evolution of their relationship and of Emily’s own coming of age, in the face of tragedy and justice.

  • Environmental Justice and Environmentalism: the Social Justice Challenge to the Environmental Movement
    Sandler_pb.qxd 12/13/06 7:43 AM Page 1 ENVIRONMENT/SOCIOLOGY/PHILOSOPHY Environmental Justice and Environmentalism The Social Justice Challenge to the Environmental Movement edited by RONALD SANDLER and PHAEDRA C. PEZZULLO Envir Although the environmental movement and the environmental justice movement would seem to be natural allies, their relationship over the years has often been characterized by conflict onmental Justice and Envir and division. The environmental justice movement has charged the mainstream environmental movement with racism and elitism and has criticized its activist agenda on the grounds that it values wilderness over people. Environmental justice advocates have called upon environ- Environmental Justice mental organizations to act on environmental injustice and address racism and classism in their own hiring and organizational practices, lobbying agenda, and political platforms. This book examines the current relationship between the two movements in both conceptual and and Environmentalism practical terms and explores the possibilities for future collaboration. In ten original essays, contributors from a variety of disciplines consider such topics as the The Social Justice Challenge to the Environmental Movement relationship between the two movements’ ethical commitments and activist goals, instances of successful cooperation in U.S. contexts, and the challenges posed to both movements by globalization and climate change. They examine the possibility and desirability of one unified movement as opposed to two complementary ones by means of analyses and case studies; these include a story of asbestos hazards that begins in a Montana mine and ends with the release of asbestos insulation into the air of Manhattan after the collapse of the World Trade edited by Center.

  • EVIDENCE of INFLUENCES on JOHN KENNEDY TOOLE's a CONFEDERACY of DUNCES, INCLUDING GEOFFREY CHAUCER Version 2.1 (2 June 2014)
    EVIDENCE OF INFLUENCES ON JOHN KENNEDY TOOLE'S A CONFEDERACY OF DUNCES, INCLUDING GEOFFREY CHAUCER Version 2.1 (2 June 2014) H. Vernon Leighton Dedicated to Richard E. Smith Abstract This study uses the evidence held in John Kennedy Toole’s papers located at Tulane University to investigate many literary works and authors who may have been possible influences on his novel A Confederacy of Dunces (Confederacy). Part one is a catalog of evidence about authors, texts, and characters to which Confederacy has been compared, including Boethius, Chaucer, John Lyly, Edmund Spenser, Cervantes, Shakespeare’s Falstaff, John Milton, various authors of picaresque novels, Jonathan Swift, the Romantic Poets, Mark Twain, Herman Melville, Joseph Conrad, T.S. Eliot, various ethnic melee dramas, Walker Percy, J. D. Salinger, and Flannery O’Connor. Part two then analyzes themes common to both Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales and Toole’s Confederacy, such as the use of the grotesque, the dynamics within intimate relationships, and the parody of romance. In Confederacy, Ignatius Reilly is an agent of Fortuna and fulfills a role occupied by the planetary god Saturn in Chaucer’s Knight’s Tale. Some critics have called Toole’s outlook deterministic. This study argues that he was not a determinist, and that his Boethian position on free will was derived indirectly through the influence of Chaucer. EVIDENCE OF INFLUENCES ON J. K. TOOLE — 2 of 46 Introduction1 Prior to the posting of version 1.0 of this study in July of 2010, efforts to study John Kennedy Toole’s intellectual development and how it may have influenced his A Confederacy of Dunces (Confederacy) had been remarkably weak, especially considering the critical attention paid to the text.
