Room: Minetta
Sponsor: Program Committee
Organizer: David Fasenfest, Wayne State University
Presider: Mike Sabbagh, Occupy Detroit
Description: The initial occupation of New York City built off existing notions that something wasn’t right. The malaise was and is rooted in here New York but its effect are felt far and wide. Wall Street was the culprit, but how do you vent grievances towards an abstract entity? And how are corollary movements with geographic links, like Occupy Detroit, aligned with the goals and strategy of this abstract movement, Occupy Wall Street? Wall Street’s tentacles reach into Detroit and vice-versa, but there is nevertheless a gulf between these entities. This panel will act a dialog between these groups, with participation from activists and organizers from both.

Mike Sabbagh, Occupy Detroit

Session 49: Critique of the Leftist Utopian Imagination
Room: Palace
Sponsor: Program Committee
Organizer &
Presider: Eduardo Bonilla-Silva, Duke University
Description: In this session panelists will explore the limits of the leftist imagination about the future society. For radicals of almost all political leanings, the future ”communist” or ”anarchist” society is seen as the solution for all current ills. But this future, imagined by mostly white, male radicals, is only feasible if one believes that class is the primary contradiction of modern societies. If one believes that the contemporary matrix of domination is much more complex, then the program for social emancipation needs to have in its agenda other sources of social division. This session is in part inspired by last year’s panels at the ASA on ”real utopias” and the disappointment of race scholars and feminists of color with how narrow their views of the present and of the future were. However, the limits of the leftist imagination on the future society has a long history and we hope panelist address that history in this session.

Room: Palace

Presider: David Fasenfest, Wayne State University
Discussant: Rick Wolff, New School
Description: While the neo liberal capitalism of the current world system has fostered enormous wealth, most of this wealth has been appropriated by a variety of elites, and indeed often coalitions of elites. The other side of the coin, has been growing inequality, the expansion of a vast number of people now facing unemployment, underemployment and perhaps permanent membership in a growing precariat class. In response to these conditions, we have witnessed a variety of social mobilizations from Tunisia and Egypt to Greece and Spain, and finally the Occupy Wall Street movements in the USA that would express their grievances and would foster social changes. But this has not always been the case. Within a short time, we now see crises in Tunisia and Egypt, devastation in Syria, continued protests in Spain and Greece and the OWS encampments were violently dispersed. How do we understand what has happened, what does this mean in terms of social movements? What might the outcomes be? To examine these timely questions, a number of scholars long identified with progressive mobilizations will come together to reflect on these movements.

Alan Spector, Purdue University Calumet
Presider: Roderick D. Bush, St. John's University
Description: Over half a century ago, Malcolm X theorized that ”You can’t have capitalism without racism!” Today, his insights ring truer than ever. As the struggle continues, a new generation has grown up under a post-9/11 choreography of ”racial unity” that has evolved during the Obama era with the promise of a ”post-racial” society. But that promise has steadily evaporated as the intersection of racial and class oppression in the US has become ever clearer for those on the receiving end. This dialogue is about a critical sociology of resistance and seeks to explore alternative strategies for advancing the struggle for full racial equality and socialism.

Room: Palace
Sponsor: Program Committee
Organizer: Eduardo Bonilla-Silva, Duke University
Presider: George Lipsitz, University of California, Santa Barbara
Description: This session is a follow-up to session I, ”CRITIQUE OF THE LEFTIST UTOPIAN IMAGINATION.” The goal of this session is not to produce the final program of ”what is to be done,” but to begin fleshing out issues that the future society should address, bringing traditions of resistance to the fore as central for imagining the new society, and pondering aloud how to disentangle intersectional nodes of power. For example, should gender and race remain as benign cultural categories in the future society or should they ”wither away” as their oppressive foundation is dislodged? What is the import of the black resistance tradition and the struggles of women of color to shade (pun intended) the utopia of the future? And, is it at all productive to imagine the future or should just focus on demolishing the oppressive system we live in?

Session 150: Identity: Rethinking Ethnicity and Race in the 21st Century
Room: Imperial
Sponsor: Racial and Ethnic Minorities
Organizer &
Presider: Crystal L. Jackson, Loyola University Chicago
Description: The session will begin by considering how whites and blacks make sense of their racial identities amid changing historical circumstances. Presenters will focus upon how whites’ lived experiences in racially changing neighborhoods inform their racial understanding. Within the context of ongoing dialogues on racial progress, the session will also take a new look at the discrepancy between the achievements of middle class blacks and their lived experiences, which tend to offer diminishing returns on social and economic gains. In the second part of the session, we expand the discussion to include groups that lie outside the black/white paradigm that has defined American society historically. Presenters will examine how racial projects impacting both Muslim and Mexican Americans inform social life. We end the session by taking into account how globalization shapes identity and conceptions of home within two segments of the Korean diaspora.

Room: Booth
Sponsor: Program Committee
Organizer: Graham Cassano, Oakland University
Presiders: Pamela Yates, Film Director, Skylight Pictures
Paco de Onís, Skylight Pictures
Description: Granito: How to Nail a Dictator is a story of destinies joined by Guatemala’s past, and how a documentary film intertwined with a nation’s turbulent history emerges as an active player in the present. In Granito our characters sift for clues buried in archives of mind and place and historical memory, seeking to uncover a narrative that could unlock the past and settle matters of life and death in the present. Each of the five main characters whose destinies collide in Granito are connected by Guatemala’s past. In 1982, Guatemala was engulfed in an armed conflict during which a genocidal ”scorched earth” campaign by the military killed nearly 200,000 Maya people and disappeared another 20,000. Now, as if a watchful Maya god were weaving back together threads of a story unraveled by the passage of time, forgotten by most, our characters become integral to the overarching narrative of wrongs done and justice sought that they have pieced together, each adding their granito, their tiny grain of sand, to the epic tale.

Session 166: Broken on All Sides: Race, Mass Incarceration & New Visions for Criminal Justice in the U.S.
Room: Booth
Sponsor: Program Committee
Organizer: Graham Cassano, Oakland University
Presider: A. Kathryn Stout, Manhattan College
Description: The documentary centers around the theory put forward by many, and most recently by Michelle Alexander (who appears in the movie), that mass incarceration has become "The New Jim Crow." That is, since the rise of the drug war and the explosion of the prison population, and because discretion within the system allows for arrest and prosecution of people of color at alarmingly higher rates than whites, prisons and criminal penalties have become a new version of Jim Crow. Much of the discrimination that was legal in the Jim Crow era is today illegal when applied to black people but perfectly legal when applied to "criminals." The problem is that through subjective choices, people of color have been targeted at significantly higher rates for stops, searches, arrests, prosecution, and harsher sentences. So, where does this leave criminal justice? (length: 68 minutes)

Session 181: Puzzles: When Hate Came to Town
Room: Booth
Sponsor: Program Committee
Organizer: Graham Cassano, Oakland University
Presider: Jo Reger, Oakland University
Description: In the post-industrial city of New Bedford, Massachusetts, an 18 year-old entered a gay bar named Puzzles, and attacked its patrons with a hatchet and gun. As a result, two very different communities are threatened. The loose circle of disaffected white youth who call themselves Juggalos, — followers of the Detroit-based white-rap/ band Insane Clown Posse (ICP) and the vibrant but fragile oasis for drag performers and working class gay men and lesbians. PUZZLES charts these divergent journeys as they unfold, and along the way, PUZZLES reveals the deep alienation that many American youth struggle with and its counter part: the abiding need for family. (length: 53 minutes)
