Both legal scholars and activists have bemoaned the widening gap between theory and practice, called for a rethinking of the traditional civil rights paradigm, and wondered how to seize the \"moral high ground\" with respect to contemporary political debates about racial inequality. To contribute to this broader dialogue, I want to offer some brief observations about the conceptual language of race, racism, and anti-racism, and discern its meaning for the task at hand. In January of 2000, Oakland Mayor Jerry Brown was asked by San Francisco Chronicle political columnists Phillip Matier and Andrew Ross about his downtown revitalization plans. The following dialogue ensued: Matier & Ross: Some people say you're just trying to bring 10,000 white people into the downtown with all these high-priced live-work lofts. Brown: How do you know what color they are going to be? Matier & Ross: Come on, who do you think lives in these lofts? Brown: Well, that's kind of a stigmatization of nonwhite people. There are African Americans, Chinese, Filipinos and there are white people and by the way, race is just kind of silly anyway because 99 percent of our DNA is the same. Matier & Ross: Maybe, but race is still a part of politics especially local politics. Brown: It's a fact that is often manipulated and used.

President Obama and the Polymorphous "Other" in Political Discourse 奥巴马总统与政治话语中的多态“他者

{"title":"President Obama and the Polymorphous \"Other\" in Political Discourse","authors":"C. Kim","doi":"10.15779/Z38SZ99","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15779/Z38SZ99","url":null,"abstract":"At the Asian American Law Journal Symposium at Berkeley Law last spring,' I displayed two pictures from two presidential contests twenty years apart. Only a few in the audience, composed mostly of twentysomething-year-old law students, recognized the first picture as a mug shot of Willie Horton, the black convicted felon featured in the Republican television ad that helped sink Democrat Michael Dukakis' presidential bid in 1988.2 They did, however, recognize the second picture: the July 2008 cover of the New Yorker featuring Barack Obama and Michelle Obama dressed as a Muslim and a militant (Black Panther?) respectively. Barack is giving Michelle what FOX news anchor E.D. Hill called a \"terrorist fist jab\";' Osama bin Laden's portrait hangs over the mantel; and the American flag bums in the fireplace. Both pictures capture historic moments in which race emerged as a potent force in American electoral politics. Both give voice to conservative fears about the kind of threats to which liberals are leaving the nation vulnerable-in the first case, recidivist crime by the incorrigible black felon; in the second case, an inside takeover at the highest level of power by Islamic terrorists posing as the American President and the First Lady. I suggest that juxtaposing these two pictures, these snapshots from presidential contests twenty years apart, tells us something important about shifting notions of race, religion, and the Nation in the new millennium. These changing notions, burnished in the course of partisan political struggle, intimate the seemingly contradictory point that \"the Other\" in U.S. political discourse is a continuously shifting form even as it stays eerily the same.","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115668919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

New Directions in Asian American Jurisprudence 亚裔美国法理学的新方向

{"title":"New Directions in Asian American Jurisprudence","authors":"N. Gotanda","doi":"10.15779/Z382G53","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15779/Z382G53","url":null,"abstract":"This article traces the evolution of and highlights developing trends in Asian American jurisprudence. This article presents Asian American jurisprudence not as a singular doctrine or theory, but instead as consisting of multiple strands and facets. Asian American jurisprudence can be seen as a locale for identity, interrogation and praxis. Identity addresses combating racial stereotypes and attempting to form a collective identity. Interrogation refers to three core narratives for Asian Americans: (i) the immigration narrative, (ii) the citizenship narrative and (iii) the racial narrative. Praxis has three dimensions: (i) as a way to combat the absence and invisibility of Asian Americans in legal analysis, (ii) as a way to intervene and modify legal doctrines as applied to Asian Americans and (iii) as a way to engage in explicit political and social activism. Asian American jurisprudence can also provide a framework for analyzing race and racialization. The standard Black-White racial narrative is ill-suited for discussing the experience of Asian Americans. Instead, a three part analytic framework that includes (i) the body primitive, (ii) racial categories and (iii) racial stereotypes is a more nuanced way to analyze Asian American racialization. This article concludes by discussing five works on Asian American jurisprudence that reveal a shift away from narratives of immigration, citizenship and racialization and address new frontiers.","PeriodicalId":334951,"journal":{"name":"Asian American Law Journal","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117147054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
