Three days later, on May 17th, the building was in ashes, burned to the ground by a white mob while government officials did little to intervene. Philadelphia, the former capital of the nation known throughout the country as a beacon of freedom and hub of abolitionism, became another setting of collective racial violence fueled by white rage. In response to the events, abolitionist Frederick Douglass condemned Philadelphia scathingly writing, “Shame Upon the Guilty City!” Almost two centuries later, the nation’s Capitol and symbol of liberty was besieged by a wrath-filled, mostly white mob in a manner similar to the Philadelphia riot of 1838. The preconditions of both violent attacks, the role of the state in their unfolding, and subsequent historical amnesia in their wake underscore the cyclical nature of white rage. This article argues that analyzing the example of Pennsylvania Hall’s destruction alongside the Capitol insurrection reveals historical trends within violent rioting incited by threats to the status quo of white hegemony.","PeriodicalId":44850,"journal":{"name":"Souls","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47958617","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This position particularly applies to captured militants of the New Afrikan independence movement. In this context the U.S. has responded that PoW status does not apply to those engaged in wars of national liberation. This essay challenges that assertion with a close look at how the British treated captured members of the Provisional Irish Republican Army. It begins by introducing Shakur’s claims to PoW status and the relevant provisions of the Geneva Conventions. After briefly summarizing centuries of Irish resistance to British colonization, it provides a detailed look at “the Troubles,” a period beginning in the late 1960s, when armed opposition to the occupation of Northern Ireland intensified and was met by British campaigns of “pacification.” In this period Irish prisoners—like their counterparts in the Black liberation movement—insisted on being treated as prisoners of war. As a result, the British authorities placed IRA prisoners in a “Special Category” that, for all practical purposes, amounted to PoW status under international law. Thus, the essay concludes, British policies with respect to the IRA undermine the United States’ contemporaneous claims that there was no precedent for treating Mutulu Shakur as a prisoner of war.","PeriodicalId":44850,"journal":{"name":"Souls","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45800194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A cofounder of the Republic of New Afrika movement, Shakur was a well-known acupuncturist who developed innovative treatment for drug addiction. He was active nationally and internationally in addressing discrimination against Black people in the United States and was a prominent target of the FBI’s COINTELPRO operations. In 1988, in a trial before Judge Charles Haight, Jr., in the Southern District of New York, Shakur was convicted in connection with the 1981 robbery of a Brinks armored car that left a guard and two police officers dead. He was sentenced to 60 years in prison and was eligible for parole in 2016. Since then, despite being a model prisoner, he has been denied parole nine times. In December 2020, in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic, the 69-year-old activist was denied compassionate release by the now 90-year-old Judge Haight, despite the fact that Shakur has advanced and incurable multiple myeloma cancer, has survived a stroke, and suffers from diabetes and hypertension. In his 2020 decision, Judge Haight asserted that it was “impossible” to find that Shakur meets the conditions for compassionate release, primarily because the criminal conduct at issue was “indefensibly undertaken for political reasons.” The court referenced a motion filed in 1988, in which Shakur “contends that under applicable treaties and international law he is a prisoner of war, and thus immune from prosecution for the acts charged in the indictment.” This view, the judge noted, “is echoed today in the website ‘mutulushakur.com’ ... where Shakur refers to himself as a ‘political prisoner.’” On its face, the judge’s reasoning would seem to confirm that, at least at this point, Shakur is, in fact, a political prisoner.","PeriodicalId":44850,"journal":{"name":"Souls","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46871311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The original Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) was setup in South Africa to redress the gross violations of human rights by the apartheid regime. It was a tool to assist a peaceful transition to a democratic society by public acknowledgement of the abuses by the government and its agents. TRC allows the victims’ voices to be heard and the perpetrators to confess their crimes in an application for amnesty, as well as amnesty for political prisoners. The concept of crimes against humanity comes under International Law and the Geneva Convention adopted by the world at the U.N. in 1948. The idea of the TRC is premised on the fact that to truly have a democratic society, transitioning from one where human rights violations and crimes against humanity were grave and extensive, there has to be a process for reconciliation, acknowledgment of abuses, documentation of abuses, accountability, reparation and an effort to establish the facts. Encompassing this process is the idea of amnesty to “solidify” the democratic society. As one considers these principles and ideas of the TRC process and considers the history of race relations and the gross human rights abuses against Blacks and particularly Black political prisoners for opposing the “neo apartheid”","PeriodicalId":44850,"journal":{"name":"Souls","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47440097","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
