  • Release : 2023-10-17
  • ISBN : 0226826473
  • Pages : 293 pages

Download or read book Risk Work written by Faye Raquel Gleisser and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2023-10-17 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How artists in the US starting in the 1960s came to use guerrilla tactics in performance and conceptual art, maneuvering policing, racism, and surveillance. As US news covered anticolonialist resistance abroad and urban rebellions at home, and as politicians mobilized the perceived threat of “guerrilla warfare” to justify increased police presence nationwide, artists across the country began adopting guerrilla tactics in performance and conceptual art. Risk Work tells the story of how artists’ experimentation with physical and psychological interference from the late 1960s through the late 1980s reveals the complex and enduring relationship between contemporary art, state power, and policing. Focusing on instances of arrest or potential arrest in art by Chris Burden, Adrian Piper, Jean Toche, Tehching Hsieh, Pope.L, the Guerrilla Girls, Asco, and PESTS, Faye Raquel Gleisser analyzes the gendered, sexualized, and racial politics of risk-taking that are overlooked in prevailing, white-centered narratives of American art. Drawing on art history and sociology as well as performance, prison, and Black studies, Gleisser argues that artists’ anticipation of state-sanctioned violence invokes the concept of “punitive literacy,” a collectively formed understanding of how to protect oneself and others in a carceral society.

  • ISBN : 0473717743
  • Pages : 792 pages

Download or read book Unleashed written by Grant McLachlan and published by Klaut. This book was released on 2024-06-17 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He wrote about vigilantes during the Covid lockdowns. What could possibly go wrong? Grant McLachlan is a researcher and writer who has exposed dirty politics at local and central government level. With a background in law and town planning, he moved to the sleepy seaside suburb of Snells Beach to convalesce. Walking his dog along the esplanade provided routine and social interaction with the large dog walking community. A group of beachfront Boomers had other ideas. Under the guise of the ratepayers’ association and Neighbourhood Support, they chipped away at banning the predominant activities of beach users. The priggish, Nimby killjoys targeted everyone from developers, picnickers, motorhomers, recreational boating, to dog walkers. Whipping themselves into a lather, they lobbied for draconian measures, then formed vigilante patrols to enforce them. When Grant researched and exposed the pensioners’ schemes, the vigilantes tried to silence him. With the help of politicians, officials, and the media, the pensioners’ repeated attempts to stitch up Grant climaxed when a little old mother of a cop threw a camera at Grant, breaking his nose, and she then fled the scene. Realising the plot, Grant withheld footage of the incident. The police charged Grant with assault and robbery. With Grant ‘silenced’ on bail for over two years as he awaited trial, the pensioners and politicians behind the plot escalated their agenda. Grant used the trial, stalled until after the local and general elections, as an opportunity to finally get answers that the plotters tried to obstruct. The racket tried to portray an isolated incident witnessed by independent witnesses. But it wasn’t an isolated incident. It was the sixth of nine plots typical of dirty politics in New Zealand’s most corrupted community: Rodney. * * * Unleashed delves into decades of political scheming, covering: - New Zealand's biggest corruption case, involving Rodney District Council and Auckland Transport; - What led to the appointment of commissioners to run Rodney District Council; - How Rodney District became part of the Auckland Council ‘Super City’; - Ross Meurant's police and political careers; - Frank Gill, Rob Muldoon, Pacifika dawn raids, Don Brash, race relations, and Orewa speeches; - Colin Craig, the Exclusive Brethren, Chris Penk, and religious political positioning; - The Bevan Chuang/Len Brown scandal; - The Rachel MacGregor/Colin Craig/Jordan Williams scandal; - The Kim Dotcom/John Banks/John Key scandal; - The Cameron Slater/Matt Blomfield scandal; - The David Garrett & Rodney Hide resignations; - The implosion of Act and the rise of the New Zealand Taxpayers' Union; - The Cameron Slater/Simon Lusk/Mark Mitchell scandal; - The Cameron Slater/Simon Lusk/Greg Sayers campaign to roll Penny Webster; - The Greg Sayers/Beth Houlbrooke scandal; - Dodgy decisions from Auckland Council’s planning, roading, biodiversity, animal management, and governance; - Dodgy police conduct, ranging from the Louis Nicholas cases, Operation Austin, IPCA conduct, to Warkworth Police; - The chambers of commerce/council rackets; - The NZ Taxpayers’ Union/Act Party racket; - Media rackets; - Rackets involving the council and ratepayers’ groups; and - The money and influence in Auckland's - and New Zealand's - corridors of power. If there was a political scandal over the past 25 years, the chances are that there was a connection with the Rodney area.

  • ISBN : 0807006793
  • Pages : 242 pages

Download or read book Unbroken Chains written by Melissa Ditmore and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2023-05-09 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An urgent exposition of the pervasive human trafficking that lies just beneath the surface of the US economy—from the stories of its survivors The years of the COVID-19 pandemic have brought to light the exploitation of workers. In this moment of heightened visibility, Unbroken Chains demands that readers examine the hidden sector of American trafficked labor and understand its prevalence across our economy. Drawing from nearly two decades of research on US and international human trafficking, Melissa Hope Ditmore sets forth the harrowing stories of human trafficking survivors and grounds their accounts in the long history of US indentured servitude, looking to its iterations in chattel slavery, Chinese contract labor, and prison labor. In this groundbreaking investigation of American trafficking, Ditmore unveils the unnerving reality that forced labor permeates many industries beyond sex work: in almost every aspect of consumption, people who create our everyday necessities are working amid inescapable exploitation, often without pay. Unbroken Chains tells these workers’ stories: They are nannies for New York City’s diplomatic elites and door-to-door magazine salespeople in the American South. A trafficked person may have harvested your produce, sewn your clothes, or cleaned your apartment lobby. Ditmore offers readers an illuminating window on the world of forced labor, which exists within our own, and a road map for participating in its destruction. Unbroken Chains will include more than a dozen images, including detailed maps, archival pictures, and trafficking documents. Among these images are a modern map of the Sonoran Desert in the American Southwest, a bill of sale for an enslaved woman forced into sex work, letters from men in compulsory plantation labor after the Civil War, and 19th-century “white slave” panic propaganda.

Book Punished for Dreaming

Download or read book Punished for Dreaming written by Bettina L. Love and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2023-09-12 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NOW A NEW YORK TIMES AND A USA TODAY BESTSELLER “I am an eighties baby who grew to hate school. I never fully understood why. Until now. Until Bettina Love unapologetically and painstakingly chronicled the last forty years of education ‘reform’ in this landmark book. I hated school because it warred on me. I hated school because I loved to dream.” —Ibram X. Kendi, New York Times bestselling author of How to be an Antiracist In the tradition of Michelle Alexander, an unflinching reckoning with the impact of 40 years of racist public school policy on generations of Black lives In Punished for Dreaming Dr. Bettina Love argues forcefully that Reagan’s presidency ushered in a War on Black Children, pathologizing and penalizing them in concert with the War on Drugs. New policies punished schools with policing, closure, and loss of funding in the name of reform, as white savior, egalitarian efforts increasingly allowed private interests to infiltrate the system. These changes implicated children of color, and Black children in particular, as low performing, making it all too easy to turn a blind eye to their disproportionate conviction and incarceration. Today, there is little national conversation about a structural overhaul of American schools; cosmetic changes, rooted in anti-Blackness, are now passed off as justice. It is time to put a price tag on the miseducation of Black children. In this prequel to The New Jim Crow, Dr. Love serves up a blistering account of four decades of educational reform through the lens of the people who lived it. Punished for Dreaming lays bare the devastating effect on 25 Black Americans caught in the intersection of economic gain and racist ideology. Then, with input from leading U.S. economists, Dr. Love offers a road map for repair, arguing for reparations with transformation for all children at its core.
