Politics, Pedagogy, And Shaping Public Policy, Jill Dolan

Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)

We never exactly know when history is going to catch up with us, when we'll be in the midst of a crucial moment to which posterity will refer as key, as significant, as a lynchpin on which other moments, other decisions, other understandings were founded. The impeachment hearings recently conducted in the House of Representatives dragged us all, unwilling and amazed, into a dark hour of American politics, one in which partisan fury and ideological hatred are translated into strategies of power that disregard and reverse electoral politics.

New Migration And Racism In Cyprus: The Racialisation Of Migrant Workers, Nicos Trimikliniotis Dec 1998

New Migration And Racism In Cyprus: The Racialisation Of Migrant Workers, Nicos Trimikliniotis
