Claudia Tinageros is a Dancer, artist and Peruvian communicator interested in the dissemination of art and culture as a generator for development and improvement for new opportunities. Dance transformed her life. From dance, she learned to connect with Mother Earth and to capture the energy that flows between us. Her dance is the performance of her life, and of our lives made into movement. She is interested in performing, investigating, educating, and creating art that will enrich the community by inspiring others to perform and to be empowered. She believes this goal can be achieved through education, supported by the rich legacy of contemporary dance. The energy created by dance can flow out into the community and in turn flow back from the community. A community can be enhanced by the dance experience of others. Her objective is to create an appreciation for self through dance. Claudia is currently exploring improvisation in natural public spaces, in a search to understand the cyclical connection that exists between women and nature and how this relationship affects the environment in which we live. Funding credits: Over 2020, this project was supported in large part by The Mertz-Gilmore Foundation.

  • The Politics of Charter School Growth and Sustainability in Harlem
    REGIMES, REFORM, AND RACE: THE POLITICS OF CHARTER SCHOOL GROWTH AND SUSTAINABILITY IN HARLEM by Basil A. Smikle Jr. Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Basil A. Smikle Jr. All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT REGIMES, REFORM, AND RACE: THE POLITICS OF CHARTER SCHOOL GROWTH AND SUSTAINABILITY IN HARLEM By Basil A. Smikle Jr. The complex and thorny relationship betWeen school-district leaders, sub-city political and community figures and teachers’ unions on the subject of charter schools- an interaction fraught with racially charged language and tactics steeped in civil rights-era mobilization - elicits skepticism about the motives of education reformers and their vieW of minority populations. In this study I unpack the local politics around tacit and overt racial appeals in support of NeW York City charter schools with particular attention to Harlem, NeW York and periods when the sustainability of these schools, and long-term education reforms, were endangered by changes in the political and legislative landscape. This dissertation ansWers tWo key questions: How did the Bloomberg-era governing coalition and charter advocates in NeW York City use their political influence and resources to expand and sustain charter schools as a sector; and how does a community with strong historic and cultural narratives around race, education and political activism, respond to attempts to enshrine externally organized school reforms? To ansWer these questions, I employ a case study analysis and rely on Regime Theory to tell the story of the Mayoral administration of Michael Bloomberg and the cadre of charter leaders, philanthropies and wealthy donors whose collective activity created a climate for growth of the sector.

    ROCKEFELLER ARCHIVE CENTER RESEARCH REPORTS Neither Right nor Left: Grassroots Black Conservatism in Post- World War II America by Chanelle Rose Rowan University © 2020 by Chanelle Rose Neither Right nor Left: Grassroots Black Conservatism in Post-World War II America In the summer of 2018, I was awarded a Rockefeller Archive Center (RAC) research stipend to conduct research on my book project, tentatively titled Neither Right nor Left: Grassroots Black Conservatism in Post-World War II America. Over the past two decades, the growth of scholarship on the history of modern conservatism and the rise of the New Right has moved this ideology from the margins of American society to mainstream political thought. Much of this work has foregrounded the lives, organizations, and political activity of white conservatives in the U.S. But scholars have begun to pay more serious attention to African Americans and their leadership in the Republican Party during the postwar era. Notwithstanding the significance of this emerging literature, it places a strong national and state focus on the instrumental role of black Republicans who waged an uphill battle to secure the GOP’s commitment to civil rights and racial equality. My project adopts a more bottom-up approach to understanding the development of modern black conservatism and its impact on the African American struggle for racial equality, focusing on its evolution in local communities from 1950 to 1985. I contend that even though the important role of black Republicans and conservatives at the national level during this period has begun to receive more attention, the lesser well-known individuals and groups, especially black women, who helped to shape conservative ideas about crime, education, and economic advancement, require further study.

  • Reconstructing Justice: Race, Generational Divides, and the Fight Over “Defund the Police”
    Policy Essay Reconstructing Justice: Race, Generational Divides, and the Fight Over “Defund the Police” Michael Javen Fortner Assistant Professor, Political Science CUNY Graduate Center October 2020 Key Takeaways ► The fate of defund measures in Minneapolis, Atlanta, and New York City document the ways in which the fight over “defund the police” is as much a conflict between young and old and left and center as it is between Black and white. ► The expansion of the carceral state was a bipartisan affair. Interpretations that put all the weight on white political interests unduly minimize the impact of violence on Black communities. The younger generation, however, bore the brunt of aggressive, discriminatory policing. ► National polls demonstrate that there is a great deal of confusion around the word “defund,” and most African Americans see it as something other than completely ridding cities of cops. ► Most Americans, especially Blacks, see room for community groups and non-law enforcement professionals, such as social workers and doctors, in a broader public safety strategy. The evidence recommends the same. The Niskanen Center is a 501(c)3 issue advocacy organization that works to change public policy through direct engagement in the policymaking process.

  • The Moral Vigilante and Her Cousins in the Shadows
    ROBINSON.DOCX (DO NOT DELETE) 3/24/2015 2:04 PM THE MORAL VIGILANTE AND HER COUSINS IN THE SHADOWS Paul H. Robinson* By definition, vigilantes cannot be legally justified—if they satis- fied a justification defense, for example, they would not be law- breakers—but they may well be morally justified, if their aim is to provide the order and justice that the criminal justice system has failed to provide in a breach of the social contract. Yet, even moral vigilan- tism is detrimental to society and ought to be avoided, ideally not by prosecuting moral vigilantism but by avoiding the creation of situa- tions that would call for it. Unfortunately, the U.S. criminal justice system has adopted a wide range of criminal law rules and procedures that regularly and intentionally produce gross failures of justice. These doctrines of disillusionment may provoke vigilante acts, but not in numbers that make it a serious practical problem. More damaging is their tendency to provoke what might be called “shadow vigilantism,” in which civilians and officials feel morally justified in manipulating or subverting the criminal justice system to compel the system to deliver the justice that it appears reluctant to impose. Unfor- tunately, shadow vigilantism can be widespread and impossible to ef- fectively prosecute, leaving the system’s justness seriously distorted. This, in turn, can provoke a damaging antisystem response, as in the “Stop Snitching” movement, that further degrades the system’s repu- tation for doing justice, producing a downward spiral of lost credibil- ity and deference. We would all be better off—citizens and offenders alike—if this dirty war had never started.

  • “The Only Battle in the Nation's History in Which the Black Community Has
    “The Only Battle in the Nation’s History in which the Black Community has not been Enlisted”: Black Agency, Resistance, and Alternatives to Incarceration Vesla M. Weaver, Yale University [email protected] Charles Decker, Yale University [email protected] March 26, 2014 Paper for presentation at the annual meeting of the Western Political Science Association, Seattle, WA, April 17-19, 2014. This draft is for presentation purposes; please do not cite or circulate without the author’s explicit permission. We thank the staff at the Library of Congress as well as Stephen Wulff for vital research assistance. “The war on crime has been one of the few battles in our history in which the black community has not been enlisted,” the young man thundered. The day was February 19, 1976, soon after the nation began its decades-long investment in punishment, ultimately swelling incarceration rates for the next thirty-five consecutive years. The normally soft-spoken man continued: “then and now, on urban fronts throughout the country thousands of poor and black people continue to be disproportionately victimized by crime…. The lack of black participation in the crime fight has created the false impression that the black community condones crime and protects criminals. Crime prevention, however, is a very high priority in the black community, as those of us who are of and in it know.”1 The young man was Ron Brown, the director of the National Urban League’s Washington Bureau, delivering the words of his junior colleague, Robert Woodson, and testifying before a congressional subcommittee that handled the main agency that would come to vastly bolster the nation’s prisons, police forces, and technologies of surveillance over the ensuing decades.

  • 'Policing Is a Profession of the Heart': Evangelicalism and Modern
    religions Article ‘Policing Is a Profession of the Heart’: Evangelicalism and Modern American Policing Aaron Griffith Sattler College, Boston, MA 02114, USA; agriffi[email protected] Abstract: Though several powerful explorations of modern evangelical influence in American politics and culture have appeared in recent years (many of which illumine the seeming complications of evangelical influence in the Trump era), there is more work that needs to be done on the matter of evangelical understandings of and influence in American law enforcement. This article explores evangelical interest and influence in modern American policing. Drawing upon complementary interpretations of the “antistatist statist” nature of modern evangelicalism and the carceral state, this article offers a short history of modern evangelical understandings of law enforcement and an exploration of contemporary evangelical ministry to police officers. It argues that, in their entries into debates about law enforcement’s purpose in American life, evangelicals frame policing as both a divinely sanctioned activity and a site of sentimental engagement. Both frames expand the power and reach of policing, limiting evangelicals’ abilities to see and correct problems within the profession. Keywords: evangelicalism; policing; carceral studies 1.
