#Ku_Klux_Klan - Une #histoire américaine. Naissance d’un empire invisible (1/2)

https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61ufAKBolhL._AC_SY445_.jpg

L’histoire méconnue du plus ancien groupe terroriste et raciste des États-Unis.

Le Ku Klux Klan, société secrète née en 1865, a traversé les décennies et a toujours su renaître de ses cendres. Son histoire a défrayé la chronique. 150 ans de haine, de racisme et d’horreur. 150 ans d’exclusion, de violence et de fureur.

Pour retracer en détail les quatre vies successives du Ku Klux Klan, David Korn-Brzoza a rassemblé un impressionnant fonds d’archives, alimenté en partie par celles du mouvement lui-même, et rencontré une dizaine d’interlocuteurs : un membre repenti de l’organisation, des vétérans de la lutte pour les droits civiques, le juge pugnace qui, quatorze ans après l’attentat de Birmingham, a poursuivi et condamné ses auteurs, ainsi que différents chercheurs et analystes. En montrant ainsi combien le mouvement et ses crimes incarnent une histoire et des valeurs collectives, il jette une lumière crue sur cette part d’ombre que l’Amérique blanche peine encore à reconnaître.

Divers groupes de défense et de soutien juridique des États-Unis ont déposé une plainte ce lundi 14 septembre contre le personnel embauché par le Service de lutte contre l’Immigration (Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service, ICE), non seulement pour avoir ignoré les protocoles visant à freiner la propagation du #COVID- 19 dans ses locaux, mais aussi pour avoir procédé à des #stérilisations massives et injustifiées de #femmes #migrantes #détenues.

Staggering Number of Hysterectomies Happening at ICE Facility, Whistleblower Says
▻https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/93578d/staggering-number-of-hysterectomies-happening-at-ice-facility-whistleblower-sa

A whistleblower complaint filed Monday by several legal advocacy groups accuses a detention center of performing a staggering number of hysterectomies on immigrant women, as well as failing to follow procedures meant to keep both detainees and employees safe from the coronavirus.

The complaint, filed on behalf of several detained immigrants and a nurse named Dawn Wooten, details several accounts of recent “jarring medical neglect” at the Irwin County Detention Center in Ocilla, Georgia, which is run by the private prison company LaSalle South Corrections and houses people incarcerated by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). In interviews with Project South, a Georgia nonprofit, multiple women said that hysterectomies were stunningly frequent among immigrants detained at the facility.

“When I met all these women who had had surgeries, I thought this was like an experimental concentration camp,” said one woman, who said she’d met five women who’d had hysterectomies after being detained between October and December 2019. The woman said that immigrants at Irwin are often sent to see one particular gynecologist outside of the facility. “It was like they’re experimenting with their bodies.”

Dozens of indigenous women forcibly sterilised in Canada, ...
▻http://news.trust.org/item/20181123160226-zt1ay

Dozens of indigenous women were forcibly sterilised by Canadian health authorities, including as recently as in 2017, said the lawyer leading a class-action lawsuit against the government.

Alisa Lombard was speaking on Thursday after appearing in Geneva at the U.N. Committee against Torture during hearings into Canada’s human rights record.

More than 90 indigenous women in the western province of Saskatchewan contacted lawyers to join the lawsuit over forced sterilisation, said Lombard of Maurice Law, the indigenous-run firm spearheading the case.

“This practice needs to stop,” she told the Thomson Reuters Foundation, adding that she knew of cases in 2009, 2011 and 2017.

“If it happened then and nothing was done to prevent it, I don’t see why it wouldn’t be happening now,” Lombard said.

A government spokeswoman said officials were still gathering information on the issue, and could not say with certainty that the practice had stopped.

The U.N. committee will publish its findings on December 7.

Genocide hoax tests ethics of academic publishing

#Hate_speech is on the rise. In Canada alone, it increased by a staggering 600 per cent between 2015 and 2016 as part of what some have called “the #Trump_effect.”

Academia is not immune to this trend. According to a recent study, some scholars have sought to promote “colonial nostalgia and white supremacy” by using the “scholarly veneer” of academic journals to spread “what are otherwise hateful ideologies.” What are the responsibilities of scholars in light of these developments? Are there any ethical limits to what is acceptable for debate in scholarly journals?

To take an extreme example, would an article advocating for genocide be fair game for publication, or is it beyond the ethical bounds of legitimate scholarly debate? That these sort of questions even need to be asked is a testament to the troubling times in which we live.

The false equivalence of academic freedom and free speech. Defending academic integrity in the age of white supremacy, colonial nostalgia, and anti-intellectualism

While much attention has been paid to controversies over free speech and academic freedom related to university campus debates, events, and activities, I demonstrate that higher education is also under threat by the undermining of academic publishing ethics, integrity and standards, as well as what counts as scholarly rigor. The rise of problematic rhetoric and overtures as well as the circumvention of academic publishing standards pose threats to academia writ large, whereby academia is threatened from not just from outside but also from within the academy when some academics themselves participate in the erosion of academic integrity. These new threats have arisen because there are increasing attempts to provide a ‘scholarly’ veneer to what are otherwise hateful ideologies. At a time when there are concerted efforts to decolonize academia, there is concurrent rise of colonial nostalgia and white supremacy among some academics, who are supported by and end up lending support to the escalating far-right movements globally who misuse notions of free speech and academic freedom to further their agendas and attack higher education. Critical scholars thus need to hold accountable fellow academics, academic publishers, and universities in order to protect academic integrity and scholarship in an era when free speech is misused to silence the pursuit of scholarly rigor and ethical engagement. The stakes are high at the current conjuncture and require greater introspection and intervention within academia to counter the dangerous trends of anti-intellectualism, corporatized academia, and colonial violence.

Sophia Coppola devrait-elle s’en tenir à ce qu’elle connaît ? Oui.
Mais cela passe par admettre son racisme.

Should Sofia Coppola Stay In Her White Lane? Sure. But That Means Acknowledging Her Racism.

Ce que le mot « racisé-e » exprime et ce qu’il masque | Etat d’Exception
►http://www.etatdexception.net/ce-que-le-mot-racise-e-exprime-et-ce-quil-masque

L’étude du terme « racisé-e » et de ses usages permet justement de mettre à jour à la fois la manière dont les simplifications et réductions du racisme imprègnent l’antiracisme même, mais aussi comment le vocabulaire antiraciste – et plus particulièrement ce terme – peut être porteur de complexifications et de clarifications politiques salutaires. C’est toute l’ambigüité des usages du mot « racisé-e » dont nous aimerions ici discuter.

A l’origine utilisé par les universitaires et chercheurs en sciences sociales, le terme connait ces dernières années un succès croissant dans les cercles militants antiracistes (surtout parisiens). Il désigne les personnes (noires, arabes, rroms, asiatiques, musulmanes, etc.) renvoyées à une appartenance (réelle ou supposée) à un groupe ayant subi un processus à la fois social et mental d’altérisation sur la base de la race. Les « racisé-e-s » sont celles et ceux qui appartiennent (réellement ou non) aux groupes ayant subi un processus de « racisation ».
