Images Of Slavery In The Early Church: Hatred Disguised As Love?, Kimberly Flint-Hamilton

Journal of Hate Studies

The Ardoyne neighborhood is not a place a tourist would want to visit. Its streets today are the front lines of what some would classify as a religious holy war, and are the regular backdrop for violent scenes of masked demonstrators, burning cars, and heavily armed soldiers and riot police. Guard towers, walls topped with barbed wire, armored cars, and helicopters are part of daily life in this area, but this neighborhood is not in the Middle East. Rather, it lies far to the north in Belfast, Northern Ireland, part of industrialized Western Europe. Here, row upon row of run-down …

The Role The Dutch Reformed Church Played In The Rise And Fall Of Apartheid, Jennifer Nelson

Journal of Hate Studies

The history of the Dutch settlers (later to become the Afrikaners), bound to their strong Calvinistic beliefs, became the cornerstone of white South African history in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The Great Trek (the emigration from the Eastern Cape Colony into the interior of Southern Africa by some 12,000 to 14,000 Dutch-speaking farmers between 1834 and the early 1840s) is regarded by Afrikaners as a central event of their history and the origin of their nationhood. It was during The Great Trek that the Afrikaans language and their unique culture developed. It was during this period that the Afrikaners’ …

Engendering Hate Crime Policy: Gender, The "Dilemma Of Difference," And The Creation Of Legal Subjects, Valerie Jenness

Journal of Hate Studies

Nearly six years after two women were bound and gagged and had their throats slit while camping and hiking in Shenandoah National Park, U.S. Attorney General John D. Ashcroft held a historic nationally televised press conferenceon April 11, 2002 to announce that the U.S. Justice Department invoked the federal hate crimes statute for the first time to charge the alleged murderer with hate crime. In announcing the indictment, Ashcroft spoke at length about his meeting with the parents of the victims and about the lives and characters of the young women: two Midwesterners who migrated to New England, met and …

The Conquering Lion, Julian Aguon

Journal of Hate Studies

People have often asked me what I thought justice meant. I used to quote the rhetoric voiced by many leftists today across college campuses. Now I see that justice is a word that drips with sweat and blood. Studying the rich history of black women in America, I am compelled to look inward to see myself, and my own truths, and listen to my own stories, and to ground my journey as a cocreator of justice with integrity.

Becoming Evil: How Ordinary People Commit Genocide And Mass Killing, Steven K. Baum

Journal of Hate Studies

It used to be that if you wanted to examine the psychology of genocidal thinking, there were only a handful of writers from which to choose. Over the last decade solid psychological examinations have been offered by Erving Staub and Neil Kressel. Now there is a third, and this newest contender can be proud as his is the most comprehensive work offering the best understanding of why we as a species hate so effectively.

The Pope Against The Jews: The Vatican's Role In The Rise Of Modern Anti-Semitism, Steven K. Baum

Journal of Hate Studies

Rome has had a lot of apologizing and explaining to do lately. Added to the growing list of assaults, sex scandals, and indignities is the Catholic Church’s long-standing love-hate relationship with the Jews. In a nation that bore the first Jewish ghettoes, made Jews wear identity badges, forbade them to develop relations with Christians in marriage, commerce, land ownership and living quarters, Vatican politics and policy and legendary denial should not come as any surprise.

A Century Of Genocide: Utopias Of Race And Nation, Beth Greenbaum

Journal of Hate Studies

Driven by thirst after just arriving at Auschwitz, told he can’t even break off an icicle to suck, Primo Levi asks, “Why?” A guard answers, “There is no ‘why’ here.” Why did this happen? Why did the Holocaust happen? Why do other genocides continue to happen? Eric D. Weitz, in his book A Century of Genocide: Utopias of Race and Nation, suggests a nation’s attempt to create a utopian society leads to genocide. His answer to this unanswerable, almost unaskable question—why—is courageous and fruitful.

A Civics Action: Interpreting Adequacy In State Constitutions Education Clauses, Joshua Gupta-Kagan

Faculty Scholarship

The antipathy of federal and state courts toward equal protection arguments in lawsuits challenging the public funding of education have forced education activists to search for alternative doctrinal hooks as they continue to seek reform in states' funding and management of schools. These activists have turned to state constitutions' education clauses, which impose duties on state governments to provide an "adequate" education for all children in the state. However, the art of defining and measuring an "adequate" education has advanced little beyond its state in 1973, when Justice Thurgood Marshall found the term unhelpful. In this Note, Josh Kagan surveys …

Robust Public Debate: Realizing Free Speech In Workplace Representation Elections, Kate Andrias

Faculty Scholarship

The First Amendment stands as a guarantor of political freedom and as the “guardian of our democracy.” It seeks to expand the vitality of public discourse in order to enable Americans to become aware of the issues before them and to pursue their ends fully and freely. As the Supreme Court wrote in the canonical case of New York Times Co. v . Sullivan, the First Amendment’s function is to create the “uninhibited, robust and wide-open” public debate necessary for the exercise of self-governance.

The Amendment plays a prominent role in the regulation of workplace representation elections, the process …

Spontaneous Magnetization Generated By Spin, Pulsating, And Planar Combustion Synthesis, Karen S. Martirosyan, J. R. Claycomb, G. Gogoshin, R. A. Yarbrough, J. H. Miller Jr., D. Luss

Physics & Astronomy Faculty Publications

The motion of the high temperature front during combustion synthesis of ferrite materials generates residual magnetization in cylindrical product samples. The combustion wave created a current density of up to 10 A/cm2, which influenced the magnetization distribution. The measured peak magnetic field intensity was up to 8 mT. Qualitatively different magnetic field maps were generated in ferrite samples synthesized by different combustion modes. The average magnetization vector generated by either planar or pulsating combustion was oriented at a smaller angle with respect to the pellet axis ~f<45°! than those generated by spin combustion ~60°
