This week we are recording from the University of Houston Downtown at the invitation of the Center for Critical Race Studies. Scott sits down with Dr. Stacey Floyd-Thomas, author, and the Associate Professor of Ethics and Society at Vanderbilt University Divinity School. She also serves as co-founder of the Society for the Study of Race, Ethnicity and Religion and as the Executive Director of both the Society of Christian Ethics and the nationally acclaimed Black Religious Scholars Group. Her focus on the intersection of ethics, feminist and womanist studies, critical race theory, and more provides an important lens for Texans of faith, given the issues the Texas Legislature is currently considering. We expect these issues will continue to demand attention post-legislative sessions and into the next election cycle.

Rhea's neighborhood is fading away-the mom-and-pop shops of her childhood forced out to make space for an artisanal kombucha brewery here, a hot yoga studio there. And everywhere, the feeling that this place is no longer meant for her. Because while their little corner of South L.A. isn't perfect, to Rhea and her two best friends, it's something even more important-it's home. And it's worth protecting. But as more white people flock to their latest edgy, urban paradise for its cheap rent and sparkling new Whole Foods, more of Rhea's friends and family are pushed out. Until Rhea decides it's time to push back. Armed with their cellphones and a bag of firecrackers, the friends manipulate social media to create the illusion of gang violence in their neighborhood. All Rhea wanted to do was protect her community. Her friends. Herself. No one was supposed to get hurt. No one was supposed to die. But is anyone ever really safe when you're fighting power with fear? Born and raised in South LA, Jade Adia writes stories about gentrification, Black teen joy, and the sh*tshow that is capitalism. She holds a bachelor's degree in Ethnicity, Race & Migration, and a certificate in Human Rights. She recently survived law school, graduating with a specialization in Critical Race Studies.

Why They Hate Us: How Racist Rhetoric Impacts Education (Teachers College Press, 2021) examines how racist political rhetoric has created damaging and dangerous conditions for Students of Color in schools and higher education institutions throughout the United States. The authors show how the election of the 45th president has resulted in a defining moment in U.S. history where racist discourses, reinforced by ideologies of white supremacy, have affected the educational experiences of our most vulnerable students. This volume situates the rhetoric of the Trump presidency within a broader historical narrative and provides recommendations for those who seek to advocate for anti-racism and social justice. As we enter the uncharted waters of a global pandemic and national racial reckoning, this will be invaluable reading for scholars, educators, and administrators who want to be part of the solution. Dr. Lindsay Pérez Huber is a professor of education at California State University-Long Beach as well as a visiting scholar at the UCLA Center for Critical Race Studies. Her research analyzes racial inequities in education, the impact on marginalized urban students of color, and how students and their communities respond to those inequities through strategies of resistance. Dr. Susana Muñoz is an associate professor of education at Colorado State University. Her research focuses on issues of access, equity, and college persistence for undocumented Latina/o students. Autumn Wilke works in higher education as an ADA coordinator and diversity officer and is also an author and doctoral candidate with research/topics related to disability and higher education.

In partnership with Cooperation LA, Earnest researched, “How to Start a Worker Co-Op in LA” 2021. As a part of his research, he developed a land use analysis to describe the opportunities for potential restaurants within the city of Los Angeles. The team conducted a case assessment of local restaurant owners to forecast the potential conflicts an aspiring group may face. Once collected, in conjunction with the resources provided by Los Angeles City Planning and the Department of Bureau and Street and Services a toolkit was created. The goal of the deliverable was to present a conclusive examination of the zoning where restaurants could be applicable and the complimentary facets of permitting, fees, parking, and community cohesiveness. It is hoped that the tool kit will be a catalyst for more equitable representation within the food sector in Los Angeles.

My goal is to convey that gender is a construct that was all made up and it's way more fluid than any of us can fathom. Gender and genitals are NOT the same thing. These weekly stories are about gender reveal. I hope that you will soak up the stories of our guests and share them with an intention to educate others and love the differences. It's been my calling for years to love the transphobia out of our human systems. Thanks for sharing in my purpose.

In this episode, we are talking ghosts!

What haunts Harry? What haunts the Wizarding World in the aftermath of a war? What haunts the Harry Potter series in 2022? Tune in for a truly epic conversation that leans on our episodes about the Gothic, Critical Race Studies, Disability Studies, Trauma and others to establish an exciting new framework for us to explore.And a heads up!

I am joined by director of the metamodern think tank, Abstract-Org's Brent Cooper, for an exercise in constructive disagreement. We come together from different perspectives to address leaky abstractions, The IDW, Critical Race Studies vs. Critical Race Theory, Intersectionality, globalization & cosmopolitanism, Modern Monetary Theory (MMT), and thinking big in the face of endemic incrementalism. Agora Politics is about upgrading our outdated theories of politics. To do so, we need to be willing to have challenging conversations that not only push us to our intellectual limits, but our interpersonal and ideological limits as well. None of us are born with a worldview out of whole cloth, it is shaped by our disposition, upbringing, and experiences. What we mustn't forget, however, is that the choices we make will influence our perspective now, in the future, and how we interpret the past. I'm Alex Murshak, political theorist.

Critical Black Futures: Speculative Theories and Explorations (Palgrave Macmillan, 2021),  edited by Dr. Philip Butler, imagines worlds, afrofutures, cities, bodies, art and eras that are simultaneously distant, parallel, present, counter, and perpetually materializing. From an exploration of W. E. B. Du Bois' own afrofuturistic short stories, to trans* super fluid blackness, this volume challenges readers—community leaders, academics, communities, and creatives—to push further into surreal imaginations. Beyond what some might question as the absurd, this book is presented as a speculative space that looks deeply into the foundations of human belief. Diving deep into this notional rabbit hole, each contributor offers a thorough excursion into the imagination to discover ‘what was', while also providing tools to push further into the ‘not yet'. Nicole Powell is a J.D. Candidate in the Critical Race Studies specialization at the UCLA School of Law. Learn more about your ad choices.

On this special delivery episode of Race & Rosé (this is another in-between-seasons special delivery ya'll), we discuss Juneteenth - the day that the last enslaved persons were formally freed in Galveston, Texas on June 19th, 1865.  We cover the history behind the holiday and a bit on how it's related to Critical Race Studies (more to come on this in our next episode). We also delve into the fact that Juneteenth just became a federal holiday - the first new federal holiday since MLK Day in 1983 - and what this means (and does not mean) for our country. Cheers!

"Black communities are disproportionately impacted by COVID-19." That is what the headlines have been saying as of late. To some of us, this is not a shocker, however, to most it is. But why? Well, this episode I spoke with Dr. Aja Reynolds, a Visiting Assistant Professor of Urban Education and Critical Race Studies in the Teacher Education Department at Wayne State University with a background and emphasis on working with educators and communities in sustaining freedom schooling for Black youth and those from other marginalized communities, and supporting pathways to increase Black and Brown teachers in PreK- 12 schools.

 Welcome to the radio magazine that brings you news, commentary and analysis from a Black Left perspective. I'm Margaret Kimberley, along with my co-host Glen Ford. Coming up: The coronavirus had caused people in authority to take measures they've never even considered before, like letting lots of folks out of prison. We'll hear from a district attorney whose allowing 40 percent of his city's prisoners to ride out the epidemic at home. A Black scholar says Black kids are kicked out of class in obscene numbers because slavery and Jim Crow are alive and well in the nation's schools. And, we'll hear how racism was behind the coup that ousted Bolivia's first Native American president. llinois Governor J.B. Pritzker has promised not to bring any more inmates into his state's prison system due to the coronavirus epidemic. But Alan Mills, executive director of the Uptown People's Law Center, says the prisons are already infected, and the state needs to free many more inmates from being trapped in a cage with the disease. Chesa Boudine, the leftish District Attorney for San Francisco, has a personal interest in dramatically reducing the US prison population. His father is a 75 year old prison inmate serving time for his role in the 1981 Brinks armored car robbery – a political heist by white radicals and members of the Black Liberation Army. District Attorney Boudine told National Public Radio's Terry Gross that he's reduced the San Francisco jail's population by 40 percent -- both to fight the Covid-19 epidemic, and because this country puts too many people in jail. Dr. Justin Coles is a professor at the Fordham University Graduate School of Education with an emphasis on Urban Education and Critical Race Studies. Dr. Coles co-authored an article on mass suspensions of Black students, a long standing phenomenon that Cole says is a relic of slavery and Jim Crow. Race was the main force behind last year's coup that overthrew Evo Morales, the elected president of Bolivia, South America's most heavily indigenous nation. That's the assessment of Dr. TaTHAgatan RaVINdran, a professor of anthropology and sociology in Colombia who has done extensive research on Bolivia's Native American majority. Dr. RaVINdran says the United States and multinational corporations also had it in for Morales, but racism is what brought Bolivia's first Native president down.

In this episode, Bennett Capers, Stanley A. August Professor of Law at Brooklyn Law School, discusses his article "Afrofuturism, Critical Race Theory, and Policing in the Year 2044," which was published in the New York University Law Review. Capers begins by explaining the concept of "Afrofuturism" and the role it has played in African-American thought. He describes the creation and development of the Critical Race Theory movement and how it relates to Afrofuturism. And he reflects on how Afrofuturism and Critical Race Studies can help us imagine the future of policing in a majority-minority United States.

A transcript of this episode is available here. On this episode of Perspectives, Goodwin's Chairman David Hashmall interviews Jerry Kang, UCLA's first Vice Chancellor for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. Professor Kang explains the concept of implicit bias and shares his thoughts on ways to improve diversity and inclusion in the legal industry. In addition to his role as the Vice Chancellor for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion, Professor Kang is Distinguished Professor of Law at UCLA School of Law, Distinguished Professor of Asian American Studies (by courtesy), and the inaugural Korea Times — Hankook Ilbo Chair in Korean American Studies and Law. Professor Jerry Kang’s teaching and research interests include civil procedure, race, and communications. On race, he has focused on the nexus between implicit bias and the law, with the goal of advancing a “behavioral realism” that imports new scientific findings from the mind sciences into legal discourse and policymaking. He is also an expert on Asian American communities, and has written about hate crimes, affirmative action, the Japanese American internment, and its lessons for the “War on Terror.” He is a co-author of Race, Rights, and Reparation: The Law and the Japanese American Internment (2d ed. Wolters Kluwer 2013). On communications, Professor Kang has published on the topics of privacy, pervasive computing, mass media policy, and cyber-race (the techno-social construction of race in cyberspace). He is also the author of Communications Law & Policy: Cases and Materials (4th edition Foundation 2012), a leading casebook in the field. During law school, Professor Kang was a supervising editor of the Harvard Law Review and Special Assistant to Harvard University’s Advisory Committee on Free Speech. After graduation, he clerked for Judge William A. Norris of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, then worked at the National Telecommunications and Information Administration on cyberspace policy. He joined UCLA in Fall 1995 and has been recognized for his teaching by being elected Professor of the Year in 1998; receiving the law school’s Rutter Award for Excellence in Teaching in 2007; and being chosen for the highest university-wide distinction, the University Distinguished Teaching Award (The Eby Award for the Art of Teaching) in 2010. At UCLA, he was founding co-Director of the Concentration for Critical Race Studies, the first program of its kind in American legal education. He is also founding co-Director of PULSE: Program on Understanding Law, Science, and Evidence. During 2003-05, Prof. Kang was Visiting Professor at both Harvard Law School and Georgetown Law Center. During the 2013-14 academic year, he was in residence at the Straus Institute for the Advanced Study of Law & Justice at NYU School of Law as a Straus Fellow as well as the David M. Friedman Fellow. Prof. Kang is a member of the American Law Institute, has chaired the American Association of Law School’s Section on Defamation and Privacy, has served on the Board of Directors of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, and has received numerous awards including the World Technology Award for Law and the Vice President’s “Hammer Award” for Reinventing Government.

Welcome! And thank you for joining me for my very first podcast series, "Not Your: China Doll." The purpose of this series is to promote the voices, stories, experiences, and perspectives of Asian-American women within white-America. For too long, mainstream America has depicted us as the model minority (silent, submissive, and conservative) and the perpetual foreigner (asking us, “But where are you really from?” or “What’s your real name?”, assuming we are all Chinese and related, and mocking our languages and cultures). However, unlike previous generations, more Asian-American millennials are U.S. born--making these stereotypes that much more offensive and outdated. We are not invisible, but the mainstream American media has not taken the time to really see us for who we are. Our narratives not only show our histories, cultures, and immigrant experiences but also humanizes and legitimizes each Asian American story. We are not a marginalized group who deserved to be seen of as “Other.” Drawing upon counter-storytelling as a theoretical and methodological framework of Critical Race Studies, the diverse selection of stories featured in this project serve to dismantle and complicate what it means to be an Asian woman living in America.

Talk Tuesday, January 19, 7pm Artists Space Books & Talks 55 Walker Street "Despite efforts to obscure slavery and indigenous dispossession in the genealogy and narrative of American nationhood, these realities remain deeply embedded in the relationship between race and markets where in fact race and economic domination are fused. Racial hierarchy is continually replenished through the market, while the market encodes property in accord with racial regimes. For example, "black" spaces are forever unstable, subprime, and "waste," making them always available for (re) appropriation through various technologies such as debt, (de)regulation, and development." – Cheryl I. Harris In conjunction with Cameron Rowland's exhibition 91020000, Artists Space presents a talk by Cheryl I. Harris, Professor of Law and Director of the Center for Critical Race Studies at UCLA School of Law. Harris is the author of key texts in the field of critical race theory including "Whiteness as Property" (1993) and "Equal Treatment and the Reproduction of Inequality" (2001).
