On episode 238, welcome Emile DeWeaver to discuss reforming the US criminal justice system, the lack of a systematic understanding of crime in most rehabilitation programs, white supremacy as a version of the human tendency to dominate, the “near enemy” of incremental change, the roots of US policing and the need for a collective mind to replace it, the struggle with assimilation for formerly incarcerated people, the importance of clarity and courage for social justice, and why Emile's book is just the beginning of deeper work which should include strengthening our imaginations. Emile Suotonye DeWeaver is a formerly incarcerated activist, widely published essayist, owner of Re:Frame LLC, and a 2022 Soros Justice Fellow. California's Governor Brown commuted his life sentence after twenty-one years for his community work.

In this week's Black World News, Kehinde Andrews makes plain the mirage of the Paris '24 Olympics (26 July 2024 – 11 August 2024) following his family road trip to Lille in France to watch live the (Black) Women of Team USA dominate the Japanese in basketball. He makes plain the assimilationist policy and color-blind approach of France to race; he debunks the myth of "Black" and "White" "genetic superiority" to explain their respective dominance in certain sporting and athletic activities eg Black people in track and White people in swimming. Finally, he makes plain the insidious nature of the patriotism and Diaspora wars in international sporting competitions. - In this week's official guest interview, Kehinde Andrews talks with Dr Robyn C. Spencer-Antoine about her book The Revolution Has Come: Black Power, Gender, and the Black Panther Party in Oakland and the history of women (who made up over 50% of the party), gender, and power in the party. They also discuss her second book project, To Build the World Anew: Black Liberation Politics and the Movement Against the Vietnam War in the context of Palestine, settler colonialism, and the ongoing investment and buy-in of these land grab and dispossession projects. Finally, they touch on Patricia Murphey Robinson, a Black organizer, and psychotherapist who worked with people in many movements, and Dr. Robyn's work curating the @PATarchives on Instagram to spotlight how Patricia Murphy Robinson's unprocessed home archives reframe the Black radical tradition. - Dr Robyn C. Spencer-Antoine is a History and African American Studies professor at Wayne State University (WSU), Detroit, Michigan, where they're developing the Detroit Center for Black Studies. She's a historian of the Black freedom movements, an activist, a Black feminist, a daughter of the Diaspora, and a mother.  She is co-founder of the Intersectional Black Panther Party History Project and has written widely on gender and Black power. Her writings have appeared in the Journal of Women's History and Souls as well as The Washington Post, Vibe Magazine, Colorlines, and Truthout. She has received awards for her work from the Mellon Foundation, the American Council of Learned Societies, and the Association of Black Women Historians. She is completing her second book, Vietnam Blues, on the intersections between the movement for Black liberation and the movement against the US war in Vietnam as a fellow at Harvard's Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History (CWC) in 2023-2024. In addition, she is working on two biographies: Left Traces: Patricia Robinson and the Archive of Black Women's Radicalism and Angela Davis: Radical Icon. - BLACK WORLD NEWS LINKS A'ja Wilson dominates as US women beat Japan 102-76 to open campaign for 8th straight Olympic gold https://olympics.com/en/news/paris-2024-basketball-aja-wilson-scores-double-double-usa-beats-japan WILSON A'ja (A'ja Riyadh Wilson)Athlete Profiles https://olympics.com/en/paris-2024/athlete/a-ja-wilson_1954757 The Patriotism of the Paris Olympics, Paging Doctor Doom, and the Shadow Dockethttps://www.theringer.com/2024/7/30/24209355/patriotism-2024-paris-olympics-paging-doctor-doom-supreme-court-shadow-docket - GUEST LINKS Robyn C.

On the season finale of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Everette Thompson-Francois, Race Forward's Vice President of Movement and Capacity Building is joined by Sulma Arias, Executive Director of People's Action for an illuminating and invigorating conversation inspired by the Organizing Revival project launched one year ago. As Executive Director of a national organization that houses more than 40 organizations in 30 states, Sulma grounds her leadership in her two decades of rich community organizing experience with grassroots movements, as well as her own journey as a Salvadoran immigrant to Wichita, Kansas. Sulma's narrative is one that reflects the collective resilience and determination of the thousands of constituents she helps lead in building “the power of the poor and working people in rural, suburban, and urban areas to win change through issue campaigns and elections.”Sulma and Everette's conversation centers around the foundational values and forward looking vision of People's Action, discussing strategic campaigns that empower local communities to create a national movement, the approach deeply rooted in direct action and relational power building. The “Organizing Revival” as it was envisioned, is a testament to the historically enduring spirit of activism for social change. Sulma talks about how this is more than just a strategic reset –– it represents a reaffirmation of community organizing as the bedrock for the large-scale impacts intended to be won, built through the historic wins being created by a new generation of dissenters and organizers. Her insights into the challenges and triumphs of mobilizing communities against the backdrop of at times hostile political and social landscapes offers an important look into the mobilization needed to inspire and sustain movement power.Sulma and Everette also discuss People's Action white paper “The Antidote To Authoritarianism”: a report that addresses the question of building a multiracial and pluralistic democracy with an inclusive economy to defeat the rise in authoritarianism. She talks about how the report, written with insights from experienced organizers dedicated to building power contextualize how the various political, social, economic, and environmental crisis compounding each other are a strategy that is eroding democracy –– and how regrounding the movement for social justice is the most effective practices of community organizing to address this escalating crisis at scale is the strategy that is urgently needed. With the 2024 U.S Presidential Elections approaching, Sulma's words are a reminder of the power vested in collective action. She invites our listeners and wider audiences to not shy away from, but to engage with the challenges of our times –– from the expansion of the climate crisis to the erosion of democratic norms –– through the venerable tradition of organizing. As we wrap up this season of Momentum, we want to – thank our listeners for joining us for four incredible seasons of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast. It is our privilege to bring you important conversations from our movement, to be able to create incredible work together. The next season of Momentum will kick off next month –– and we're looking forward to having you continuing to join us as a valued listener.

Today's book is: Brown and Gay in LA: The Lives of Immigrant Sons, by Anthony Christian Ocampo. Growing up in the shadow of Hollywood, the gay sons of immigrants featured in Brown and Gay in LA maneuver through family and friendship circles where masculinity dominates, gay sexuality is unspoken, and heterosexuality is strictly enforced. Dr. Ocampo details his story of reconciling his queer Filipino American identity and those of men like him. He shows what it was like to grow up gay in an immigrant family, to be the one gay person in their school and ethnic community, and to be a person of color in predominantly White gay spaces. Brown and Gay in LA is an homage to second-generation gay men and their radical redefinition of what it means to be gay, to be a man, to be a person of color, and, ultimately, what it means to be an American. Our guest is: Dr. Anthony Christian Ocampo, who is Professor of Sociology at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. He is the author of Brown and Gay in LA, and The Latinos of Asia: How Filipino Americans Break the Rules of Race.

In this episode, Dr. Anthony Christian Ocampo takes us both inside and beyond his new book, Brown and Gay in LA: The Lives of Immigrant Sons (NYU Press, 2022), to talk about the craft of writing nonfiction, the importance of writing communities and fellowships, and about putting your writing out into the world. Today's book is: Brown and Gay in LA: The Lives of Immigrant Sons, by Anthony Christian Ocampo. Growing up in the shadow of Hollywood, the gay sons of immigrants featured in Brown and Gay in LA maneuver through family and friendship circles where masculinity dominates, gay sexuality is unspoken, and heterosexuality is strictly enforced. Dr. Ocampo details his story of reconciling his queer Filipino American identity and those of men like him. He shows what it was like to grow up gay in an immigrant family, to be the one gay person in their school and ethnic community, and to be a person of color in predominantly White gay spaces. Brown and Gay in LA is an homage to second-generation gay men and their radical redefinition of what it means to be gay, to be a man, to be a person of color, and, ultimately, what it means to be an American. Our guest is: Dr. Anthony Christian Ocampo, who is Professor of Sociology at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. He is the author of Brown and Gay in LA, and The Latinos of Asia: How Filipino Americans Break the Rules of Race. He is an Academic Director of the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity, and co-host of the podcast Professor-ing. His writing has appeared in GQ, Catapult, BuzzFeed, Los Angeles Review of Books, Colorlines, Gravy, Life & Thyme, and the Chronicle of Higher Education. He received fellowships from the Ford Foundation, Jack Jones Literary Arts, Tin House, and the VONA/Voices of Our Nations Arts Foundation. He was recently featured in the Netflix documentary “White Hot: The Rise and Fall of Abercrombie & Fitch,” as he was one of the employees involved in suing the company for racial discriminatory hiring practices. He holds a BA in comparative studies in race and ethnicity and MA in modern thought and literature from Stanford University, and an MA and PhD in sociology from UCLA.

Episode 188 Notes and Links to Kavita Das's Work       On Episode 188 of The Chills at Will Podcast, Pete welcomes Kavita Das, and the two discuss, among other things, her early trajectory towards becoming a writer, formative and transformative writers and writing, how writing her first book and working in social change led her to write Craft and Conscience, and ideas of history, forgotten histories, personal narrative, writing about emotional issues, the power of anthology and writing being in conversation with other writing, writing as political, and ideas of power.      Kavita Das worked in social change for close to fifteen years, addressing issues ranging from community and housing inequities, to public health disparities, to racial injustice. Although Kavita remains committed to social justice issues, she left the social change sector to become a full-time writer and to tell the life story of Grammy-nominated Hindustani singer Lakshmi Shankar through her first book Poignant Song: The Life and Music of Lakshmi Shankar  (Harper Collins India, June 2019).    At the root of both her writing and social change work is Kavita's desire to provoke thought and engender change by recognizing and revealing the true ways in which culture, race, and gender intersect especially when it comes to societal inequities. Kavita has been a regular contributor to NBC News Asian America, Los Angeles Review of Books, and The Rumpus. In addition, her work has been published in WIRED, Poets & Writers, Catapult, LitHub, Tin House, Longreads, Kenyon Review, The Washington Post, The Atlantic, CNN, Guernica, McSweeney's, Fast Company, Quartz, Colorlines, Romper, and elsewhere. She was nominated for a 2016 Pushcart Prize.     Kavita created the popular “Writing About Social Issues” nonfiction seminar, which inspired her second book, Craft and Conscience: How To Write About Social Issues,  and has taught at the New School and Catapult, along with being a frequent guest lecturer. Her essays on social issues have been included in two creative writing textbooks. Kavita received a B.A. in Urban Studies from Bryn Mawr College and a M.B.A. in Marketing from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Would you rather have an ally or a friend? I've been taken by this paradigm shift of a question from the moment I heard Rinku talking about it. She says that an “ally” is too low of a bar, like taking something off the shelf and putting it back if you don't like it. So what happens when we talk about friendship instead? What happens when we are in authentic relationships with the people we are building movements with? In my mind, EVERYTHING changes. We are playing an entirely different game. And it includes being more human, together. I am blessed to call Rinku a friend. I know you will appreciate this episode. I feel it is very much aligned with the work Tuesday and I have been doing to re-imagine the racial justice conversation. She is an Indian-American author, activist and political strategist. She was born in Kolkata and moved to New York when she was 5 years old. I met her 20 years ago when we both served on the Board of the Schott Foundation for Public Education. Today she serves as the executive director of Narrative Initiative. She is also the co-president of the Women's March Board of Directors, former president, and executive director of Race Forward as well as publisher of ColorLines.com and Mother Jones magazine. Enjoy, and… Make FRIENDS! Gibrán
