#RaceResistSawyer

Penn State has received a grant from the Mellon Foundation to host a multi-semester Sawyer Seminar titled “Racial Disposability and Cultures of Resistance.”

[#RaceResistSawyer @Race_Resist]

What an amazing experience to end Day 1 hearing the stories of the #NJ4 from the women themselves. Huge thanks to Patreese Johnson, Renata Hill, and our wonderful moderator Dr. Timeka Tounsel! #OutInTheNight #RaceResistSawyer

"People of Color" is inclusive and presumes a shared experience, but it does not encourage black/non-black discourse.

[#RaceResistSawyer @Race_Resist]

Dr Vargas proposes that we move from black-white dyad to a black-non-black dyad, so that we can see the framework is really that people are not moving towards white, but rather running from black.

There is a growing acknowledgment of black suffering, but there's a resistance of recognizing the structural forces behind it. João Costa Vargas

4% of the NYS population are prisoners from the South Bronx.
#RaceResistSawyer

[#RaceResistSawyer @Race_Resist]

It costs money to house these prisoners, but groups like Upstate Niagara Group, who feeds the prisoners, report over 700 million dollars a year in revenue. As long as there are people and businesses making money, the progress of prison reform looks grim.

The place where most of the upstate NY prison population comes from.

[#RaceResistSawyer @Race_Resist]

While the gesture is honorable, Meek Mill, Bob Kraft, and Jay-Z's offer of 50 million towards prison reform only represents 1/8 of 1% of the total industrial prison complex's income. What is that 50 million going to do?
