In this episode, David Correia and Tyler Wall, co-authors of Police: A Field Guide, lead a webinar about policing in the US.The common narrative about the police is intentionally misleading. Without a class analysis and an understanding of history, it will remain a problem with no solution. Policing isn't a side-show to capitalist political economy. It's part of the main stage. Far from engaging in enforcing the law and fighting crime, the police are a coercive force, with origins as slave patrols, colonial militia, and strike-breakers.Addressing possibilities of reform or abolition, the point is made that attempts at reform only serve to further maintain the legitimacy of the police. Reform does not address the monopoly on violence — a violence that is non-negotiable and non-reciprocal. Reform feeds into the myth that we hold the police accountable. Abolition, on the other hand, does not mean absence; it looks at possibilities for a different kind of world. Can this be done within the capitalist system?David Correia is a professor of American studies at the University of New Mexico. He writes about violence, law, and race under capitalism.Tyler Wall is an associate professor in the Department of Sociology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His areas of interest include critical police studies; state violence and racial capitalism; law & society, race and class.Correia and Wall are co-authors of Police: A Field Guide (Verso)

“We've all got that cop in our head that wants us to see a world full of threats and emergencies.”Steve's guest, David Correia, is co-author (with Tyler Wall) of Police: A Field Guide. Listeners to the podcast probably understand the role of police is to protect capital, not ensure the safety of the citizens.“...from the railroad strikes of 1877 to the anthracite strike of 1902, it was just this unruly world of labor asserting itself, demanding higher wages, refusing to go back to work, and progressives were among the most effective political force in developing a new order. And that new order required a different cop.”Despite occasional protests and demands for reform, we always end up with more police and more police brutality. Police reformists prioritize law and order over justice, which is why they fear abolition. David asks us to define what order and disorder is. “Because usually cops produce the disorder that they then resolve.” The very language of reform legitimizes the police.David Correia is a writer and professor of American studies at the University of New Mexico. He is the author of a number of books, and co-author, along with Tyler Wall, of "Police: A Field Guide." He is the recipient of a Ford Fellowship, a Henry Belin du Pont Fellowship, and a Lannan Residency Fellowship.

Larry Casuse was shot to death by Gallup, NM police in 1973 as he carried out a desperate, radical act to try and help his people. Casuse was still a teenager, trying to call attention to unscrupulous business practices at a bar that was the epicenter of a disproportionate number of Native American deaths. His frustration boiled over when the bar's owner—the city's mayor—kept getting rewarded instead of punished by elected leaders. Today on Native America Calling, we learn about this forgotten story from a complicated era with John Redhouse (Diné and Ute), longtime Native American activist; David Correia, associate professor of American Studies at the University of New Mexico and the author of Enemy Such As This: Larry Casuse and the Fight for Native Liberation in One Family on Two Continents over Three Centuries; investigative journalist Marley Shebala (Diné and Zuni); and Lenny Foster (Diné), spiritual advisor for Leonard Peltier and retired program supervisor for the Navajo Nation Corrections Project.

America at the dawn of the twentieth century ran on anthracite coal. Burning the hard, lustrous fossil fuel heated millions of homes and powered locomotives, steamships, foundries, and factories. Nearly all of this coal came out of the hills of eastern Pennsylvania, mined by an army of workers who labored in the most dangerous industry in American for the lowest wages in the country. At about $1/day, anthracite coal miners in 1900 earned the same wage as ad their forebears eighty years previously. Hardship led some miners to organize for the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) union, but divisions along ethnic and class lines among miners limited their effectiveness. That is, until 1902. As shown in the research of Daniel Correia, professor of American Studies at the University of New Mexico, the alignment of the interests of the Eastern European immigrant mine “laborers” with those of the native and systemically favored mine “contractors” under the umbrella of the UMWA in 1902 created a uniquely advantageous moment for the labor organizers, and a uniquely perilous moment for the mine operators. The effects of this moment were long lasting. In its contours can be seen the early formation of patterns of labor relations, industrial organization, and policing prevalent today. In support of his work, Professor Correia received funding from the Center for the History of Business Technology, & Society at the Hagley Museum & Library.

In 1973, Navajo activist Larry Casuse took hostage at gunpoint the mayor of Gallup, protesting the city's liquor industry's deathly toll on Native people. We discuss the new book “An Enemy Such as This” detailing this history with author David Correia and Casuse's sister Ursula, which is out now from @haymarketbooks.

Awakened Soul Story with David Chandler Part 2 I was super excited to interview my dear friend David Chandler! This is the second half of the interview that I did with him on 12/17/21 – This week we will listen to some of his newer songs and David and I will discuss what they are all about. David and I met about 10 years ago at an event in Woonsocket, RI. The back story is that I was having visions of sunflowers, and they would appear randomly for about 3 weeks – However, I could not figure out why I was seeing them. On a Saturday afternoon, I was going to an event to see another Psychic and friend, Roland Comtois. I walked into the space that the event was being held and was looking for a place to sit. It looked like an old church inside with rows of pews. I stopped at the end of a row, and I recognized David from his FB photo – He came walking over and said, “it is so nice to finally meet you, I was waiting for you”, and then he said “I have something for you.” He handed me a CD, and on the cover of that CD, was a picture of a sunflower, as well as the title of the CD – “SUNFLOWERS”. Coincidence? I think not!! When I turned to see the speaker, who was up in the front, I noticed on either side of the pedestal that he was standing at, there were 2 very large vases of Sunflowers!! Needless to say, David and I struck up an immediate friendship. I love his music and his ethereal voice, and David as a person is an amazingly talented and gifted human being. I feel that David is an Awakened Human and has a true understanding of what is happening in the world and where the future to the human race is going. He is part of the journey – to help AWAKEN THE PEOPLE OF EARTH with his music. I hope you all enjoy this interview! A little about David Chandler: David is a Musician, Singer/Songwriter, Sound Designer, Soundtrack Artist and Sonic Therapies Practitioner. David's Sonic Journey has evolved over the past three decades in many areas of creative expression. As a singer/ songwriter, he has released 6 CDs, co- producing with David Correia, seven- time Grammy Award nominee, and two- time Grammy Award winner. His instrumental work has charted in the Top Ten in New Age radio. There are currently 6 instrumental CDs available on David's website. David has enjoyed a full spectrum musical life in performance and recording and has a long history of exploring the Healing Arts through sound and music in many forms since the1980s. He studied Behavioral Sciences and Therapeutic Music at Lesley University in Cambridge, MA, USA. His academic research was in the area of Energetic Anatomy and Sound. As a therapeutic sonic explorer, David has used Vibroacoustic Therapy and many of his own clinically proven soundtracks to assist in the tuning of the human instrument over the past 30 years. He believes in “bigger and better” things for our consciousness and recognizes the potential for our conscious evolution, both personal and collective. David's mission is to awaken as many people as possible to the deeper dimensions of our existence through sound and music. David believes that sound is the carrier wave of consciousness and is an amazing tool to access and orchestrate our individual and collective transformations. There has never been a more poignant moment in history for this Mission. David's latest work is a 10 song CD “Tears of Light” (from his “Song of The Sun” series) is dedicated to the Humanity's Global Awakening, and will be released in early 2022.

Join Nick Estes and Rebecca Nagle for an urgent discussion of the ongoing attack on Indigenous children and Indigenous land. Nick Estes puts into historical context recent headlines surrounding the discovery of mass graves of Native children at Canadian residential schools. The removal of Indigenous children from their communities and families has a long genocidal legacy that persists today, well beyond the boarding school era in Canada and the United States. The attack on Indigenous children is an attack on Indigenous sovereignty and land, and there is urgency to uphold protections that are under assault by the right wing, such as the Indian Child Welfare Act. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nick Estes is a citizen of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe. He is the author of Our History Is the Future: Standing Rock Versus the Dakota Access Pipeline, and the Long Tradition of Indigenous Resistance (Verso, 2019), coeditor with Jaskiran Dhillon of Standing with Standing Rock: Voices from the #NoDAPL Movement (University of Minnesota Press, 2019), and coauthor with Melanie K. Yazzie, Jennifer Nez Denetdale, and David Correia of Red Nation Rising: From Bordertown Violence to Native Liberation (PM Press, 2021). In 2014 he cofounded The Red Nation, an Indigenous resistance organization, and he is cohost of The Red Nation podcast. His writing has appeared in the Guardian, Intercept, Jacobin, Indian Country Today, High Country News, and other publications. Estes was an American Democracy Fellow at the Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History at Harvard University (2017–2018) and until 2021 was an assistant professor in the American Studies Department at the University of New Mexico. He joins the faculty of the University of Minnesota Department of American Indian Studies in 2022. Rebecca Nagle is an award-winning journalist and citizen of the Cherokee Nation. Nagle hosted Crooked Media's podcast This Land, telling the story of a Supreme Court case about tribal land in Oklahoma, the small town murder that started the case, and the surprising connection to her own family history. You can find her writing on issues of Native representation and tribal sovereignty in the Atlantic, the Washington Post, the Guardian, USA Today, Teen Vogue, Indian Country Today, and other publications. Nagle was awarded the 2020 American Mosaic Journalism Prize for her reporting.

Join us for a book launch discussion of the nature of the police project and its rootedness in racial capitalism and settler colonialism. Join David Correia, Melanie K Yazzi, Tyler Wall and Julie Sze in a discussion that will explore that idea that police and police violence are modes of environment-making. The police project, in order to fabricate and defend capitalist order, must patrol an imaginary line between society and nature, it must transform nature into inert matter made available for accumulation. Police don't just patrol the ghetto or the Indian reservation, the thin blue line doesn 't just refer to a social order, rather police announce a general claim to domination—of labor and of nature.

Red Nation Rising is the first book ever to investigate and explain the violent dynamics of bordertowns. Bordertowns are white-dominated towns and cities that operate according to the same political and spatial logics as all other American towns and cities. The difference is that these settlements get their name from their location at the borders of current-day reservation boundaries, which separate the territory of sovereign Native nations from lands claimed by the United States. Despite this rich and important history of political and material struggle, little has been written about bordertowns. Red Nation Rising marks the first effort to tell these entangled histories and inspire a new generation of Native freedom fighters to return to bordertowns as key front lines in the long struggle for Native liberation from US colonial control. This book is a manual for navigating the extreme violence that Native people experience in reservation bordertowns and a manifesto for indigenous liberation that builds on long traditions of Native resistance to bordertown violence. Guests: Jennifer Nez Denetdale (Dine' Nation), professor of American Studies at the University of New Mexico and serves on the Navajo Nation Human Rights Commission, and David Correia, associate professor of American Studies at the University of New Mexico, and organizes with AbolishAPD, a research collective focused on confronting the violence of the Albuquerque Police Department and committed to the abolition of police as we know it.

For this podcast, I will be talking to a man who alleges he was falsely accused of being in a gang. Sadly, this is not uncommon, as the ACLU has found. Several cities in America have already banned gang injunctions in the courts due to unconstitutionality and civil rights violations. Not so in Fresno, where half the city feels unfairly profiled and targeted for gang injunctions (South of Shaw) and the other half feels that the cries of racial profiling, false allegations, and excessive force coming from the South of Shaw do NOT outweigh their perceived benefits of gang injunctions, and want to continue to use gang injunctions.

From New York, the greatest city in the world, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! Today's road stop takes us to John V. Lindsay East River Park down by the Lower East Side near the Williamsburg Bridge. Some stories talked about on today's show were:  1. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is pushing back against President Donald Trump's claim of “total” authority to reopen the nation's virus-stalled economy. Cuomo said on NBC's “Today” on Tuesday that “We don't have a king. We have a president.” He said on CNN that if Trump ordered him to reopen New York's economy prematurely, he wouldn't do it. 2. Prosecutors say they properly seized electronic items that a Florida man tried to send to his lawyers after he was charged with conspiring with associates of Rudy Giuliani to make illegal campaign contributions. The prosecutors filed arguments Monday in Manhattan federal court as they defended their actions in the case against David Correia. 3. The mother of Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns has died due to complications from COVID-19. Jacqueline Cruz-Towns was 58. She had been fighting the virus for more than a month. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/brandon-julien/support

From New York, the greatest city in the world, it's The Update with Brandon Julien! Our road trip takes us today to Macy's in Herald Square, where all Macy's stores and their associates were closing until the end of the month at the end of business today. Some stories talked about on today's show were:  1. The governors of New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey said Monday they have agreed to close bars, restaurants, movie theaters and casinos starting at 8 p.m. Monday.  The governors said essential businesses like supermarkets and gas stations will be able to stay open after 8 p.m. All nonessential businesses must close in New Jersey and Connecticut.  2. A Florida man charged with conspiring with associates of Rudy Giuliani to make illegal campaign contributions claims prosecutors shouldn't get to keep electronic evidence he mailed to lawyers. Prosecutors disagree. Prosecutors filed papers Monday in Manhattan federal court saying they legally obtained a hard-copy notebook and electronic devices belonging to David Correia.  3. Tom Brady is poised to leave the New England Patriots. Brady posted on social media “my football journey will take place elsewhere.” The comments by the 42-year-old quarterback were the first to indicate he would leave the franchise he's led to six Super Bowl titles, and the only professional football home he has had.  --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/brandon-julien/support

This short monologue podcast is a trailer for an upcoming full length podcast on the topic of Fresno Gang Injunctions. This trailer is a brief background of gang injunctions and police predictive software. For the upcoming podcast, I will be talking to a man who alleges he was falsely accused of being in a gang. Sadly, this is not uncommon, as the ACLU has found. Several cities in America have already banned gang injunctions in the courts due to unconstitutionality and civil rights violations.

Recent years have seen an explosion of protest against police brutality and repression among activists, journalists, and politicians. To discuss new strategies for putting an end to police violence, the University of Washington's Department of Global Health assembles a panel of community activists and experts—whose gathering commemorates the one-year anniversary of Charleena Lyles' death at the hands of Seattle police. Join this critical conversation about the threat posed to public health and safety by police violence, and what we can do to stop it. Panel members include: Nakeya Isabell, spoken word artist and cousin of Charleena Lyles; Katrina Johnson, member of Charleena Lyles' family; ACLU Deputy Director Michele Storms; Black Lives Matter activist Jorge Torres; Seattle public school teacher Jesse Hagopian; former Seattle Police Chief Norm Stamper; and authors Alex Vitale and David Correia. Their conversation is moderated by UW professor Clarence Spigner. https://archive.org/details/scm-595141-policeviolencepanel Subscribe to more videos:https://www.youtube.com/c/PoliceBrutalityWorldwide Check out my Fiverr link: https://www.fiverr.com/kingemjay?up_rollout=true My blog: https://policebrutalityworldwide.blogspot.com/ My Website: http://www.policebrutalityworldwide.com Check this Surf roam link: https://surfroam.com?tap_a=22019-573852&tap_s=492427-1313ee My paypal link: www.paypal.me/kingemjayconsulting Other links:http://raphead.com/profile/DJEMJAY Mining site: https://cryptouniverse.io/en/r/EQGGJZEO https://blackjunction.com/?ref=KINGEMJAY https://blackjunction.tv/@KINGEMJAY Get CryptoBrowser:https://get.cryptobrowser.site/7009526 My podcast: https://anchor.fm/king-emjay PI Network: https://minepi.com/KingEmjay3355 https://www.karatbars.com/?s=kingemjay https://www.karatbars.com/shop/?s=kingemjay https://www.karatbars.com/landing/?s=kingemjay https://lp1.kb-universe.com/?referer=kingemjay https://www.dualmine.com/?ref=88302 https://baioafrikstan5.ning.com/?xgi=OPNVkQvdmcVWBW CashApp:£DaOfficerofdadamnlaw http://chng.it/kT9ygt7kPn https://client.iqmining.com/rf/190f2a5fe1f09 . . . . . . . . #PBWWChannel #DaOfficerOfDaDamnLaw Feel supa dupa free to contact me at my email: kingemjay3355@gmail.com Stay melanin

Join author/activists David Correia and Tyler Wall for an in-depth discussion on the language that we use to talk about policing and police reform in the hopes that understanding the historical context of these terms will help us move beyond the limits of police reform and toward a society free from police violence and free from police entirely. Police: A Field Guide is an illustrated handbook to the methods, mythologies, and history that animate today’s police. It is a survival manual for encounters with cops and police logic, whether it arrives in the shape of officer friendly, Tasers, curfews, non-compliance, or reformist discourses about so-called bad apples. In a series of short chapters, each focusing on a single term, such as the beat, order, badge, throw-down weapon, and much more, authors David Correia and Tyler Wall present a guide that reinvents and demystifies the language of policing in order to better prepare activists—and anyone with an open mind—on one of the key issues of our time: police brutality. In doing so, they begin to chart a future free of this violence—and of police.

Fifty years ago, a mainstream group of high-profile Americans declared the following: "Our nation is moving toward two societies, one black, one white — separate and unequal. Reaction to last summer’s disorders has quickened the movement and deepened the division. Discrimination and segregation have long permeated much of American life; they now threaten the future of every American. This deepening racial division is not inevitable. The movement apart can be reversed. Choice is still possible. Our principal task is to define that choice and to press for a national resolution." The Kerner Commission, established by President Johnson, embodied left liberalism at its most bold and idealistic. But that vision of radical reform was eviscerated by the American war on Vietnam, the rise of neoliberalism and the modern conservative movement, and liberal triangulation that reached its apotheosis under Bill Clinton. Dan talks to Vanessa A. Bee, a consumer protection lawyer in D.C. and a social media editor for Current Affairs magazine, about her New York magazine essay on the subject: nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2018/03/how-we-can-get-a-more-equal-union.html.

“The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets and to steal bread.” The rule of law: the #resistance has construed it to be a cornerstone of opposition to Trump. It is certainly alarming to live under a president who flirts with operating in a permanent and near-total state of exception. But it's the rule of law as we've known it that has blessed the wide-open floodgates of corporate money into American politics, looked the other way in the face of unchecked national-security-state abuses, christened separate and unequal schools and, of course, rubber-stamped the rise of mass incarceration. The law has no transcendent moral basis. Rather, it is shaped by political economy. Dan's guest is Amy Kapczynski, professor of law at Yale Law School, and a co-convenor of LPEblog.org.

This is part two of Dan's interview on Hannah Arendt's notion of "the right to have rights." This episode covers a lot, including why we must fight not only to expand the democratic political community but also to deepen its power—all at a time when the nativist right is exploiting the many crises unleashed by neoliberalism and empire to erect walls and punish scapegoats. One upshot is that zombie liberalism can't be the answer, because it is precisely the liberal order that is a key source of the problem.   Dan's guests today, Stephanie DeGooyer and Astra Taylor, just wrote a book about this for Verso, called the The Right to Have Rights. This is part 2. It's strongly suggested that you listen to part 1 first.

In the latest installment in our series on the Left and electoral politics, we're talking about the Democratic Socialists of America's new electoral strategy. DSA has almost overnight become a serious force on an American socialist left that has for decades lacked much in the way of serious forces. One of the major reasons the organization's membership rolls blew up, of course, was because of Bernie Sanders's historic 2016 run for president, which not only electrified huge swaths of the country but reminded the radical left that the point is to win power and to govern — and that, after years on the margins, we could do so. This was in part because many Americans were no longer afraid of the s-word: socialism. Yet there is still, for many good reasons, a lot of skepticism about electoral politics in general and the Democratic Party very much in particular, inside DSA and across the socialist left. That's the needle that the new DSA electoral-strategy document tries to thread. Dan's guests are Renée Paradis, a civil rights and criminal-defense lawyer. She has frequently worked for electoral campaigns, including most recently as the National Voter Protection Director for Bernie 2016. Michael Kinnucan is a writer, researcher, and activist in New York City. Both are members of DSA's National Electoral Committee and the organizing committee for NYC-DSA's Brooklyn Electoral Working Group. Thanks to Verso Books.

Historian and political theorist Timothy Mitchell joins Dan for the second of a two-part interview on his book Carbon Democracy: Political Power in the Age of Oil, published in 2011 by Verso. In part 1, we talked about a lot of things, including how the rise of coal made both industrial capitalism and newly powerful worker resistance possible, and how the shift to oil then facilitated the persistence of imperialism in a decolonizing world while thwarting worker organizing. In this installment, we discuss imperialist assaults on worker struggles in Iraq and Iran, the co-optation of those struggles by nationalist elites, and how those imperialist attacks facilitated the rise of the Baathist security state. We'll also look at how the true history of the '70s oil shock undermines the conventional account, how the protection of minorities was used to legitimate imperialism, how petro-dollars fueled the global arms trade, in what sense the Iraq War has been a war for oil, and the US strategy to seek advantage through the continuation of conflict and instability across the Middle East. Finally, we'll address petro-imperialism's bedrock alliance with right-wing Islamists against democratic movements of the Left in Saudi Arabia and beyond, and why we must fight to ensure that the coming energy transition is a just one. That review of Yascha Mounk's book that Dan wrote with Thea Riofrancos is here: https://nplusonemag.com/online-only/online-only/zombie-liberalism/ Thanks to Verso Books.

Tommie Shelby and Brandon M. Terry talk about their new book, To Shape a New World: Essays on the Political Philosophy of Martin Luther King, Jr. King is often remembered for his soaring oratory. But the commonplace emphasis on his rhetoric in place of his ideas too often allows enemies of King's agenda to domesticate him or, worse, to weaponize his out-of-context words to bolster the very forces of racism and oppression that King struggled to defeat. Shelby and Terry talk about King's theory of nonviolence (more complicated than you might think), his debate with the Black Power movement, and his thinking on gender, hope, political economy, Beloved Community, and more.
