A Special Interview with Professor Michelle Alexander
April 28, 2010, 1:36 p.m.
Itâs disturbing, itâs eye-opening and itâs unforgettable.
In this compelling interview, legal rights scholar Michelle Alexander talks about her eye-opening book, The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness. In her interview with television talk show host Henrietta J. Burroughs, Alexander explains why she thinks America has developed a new caste system based on race, how the criminal justice system uses Americaâs prisons as a form of racial control and why itâs a moral outrage to keep viable young men in the cages that exist in Americaâs prisons.
This thought provoking interview presents information that will be as disturbing and as dismaying as the evidence and conclusions presented in her book. Listeners might disagree with some of her conclusions, but they will not forget what she says or the conviction with which she says it.
This interview was taped on Monday, April 26, 2010. To see a picture of Michelle Alexander and to get additional information, go to www.epatoday.org, the website for the East Palo Alto Today newspaper.
The UCBerkeley student senate vote to divest
April 28, 2010, 12:06 p.m.
A historic vote took place last March 18 at University of California Berkeley. Its student senate voted 14-4 to demand that UC divest from industries involved in war crimes. This vote succeeded in the face of vicious harassment from ADL, AIPAC, etc, and was then vetoed by the senate president, who had not even attended the 7-hour debate. His grounds: insufficient debate! After news highlights, Salma interviews UC grad student Ibraham Shikaki, one of the yes-votes.

This episode: what were 30 SWAT cops chasing 30 hired actors in front of 30 private security guards at an underground mall on a Sunday morning?

How do we get our brains (and balls) working well enough to deal with it? Should we ignore it? Who's keeping it real with real crazy stuff going on? Who's been keeping it real long enough to trust now?

Mumia suporter march on Dept of justice
April 26, 2010, 4:11 p.m.
On April 26, an estimated 100 people marched from a church on NY Ave to the Dept of Justice. On Penn Ave they took three lanes of traffic-with not a cop in sight! At DOJ, they demanded that Eric Holder personally come down to receive tens of thousands of petitions to free Mumia, but apparently he only sent an underling to placate the crowd.
This is not just about Mumia, it's about all the innocent people unjustly on Death Row-and about all the political prisoners buried alive in AmeriKKKa's prisons.
