SUMMARY:"We Refuse: A Forceful History of Black Resistance" w/ Kellie Carter Jackson
DESCRIPTION:In her lecture\, “We Refuse\,” historian Kellie Carter Jackson looks beyond this false choice\, offering an unflinching examination of the breadth of Black responses to white oppression\, particularly those pioneered by Black women\, with emphasis on gun ownership. Carter Jackson examines other\, no less vital tactics that have shaped the Black struggle\, from the restorative power of finding joy in the face of suffering to the quiet strength of simply walking away. This lecture will provide a deeper historical insight and understanding of how power\, violence\, and state authority shape legal and social outcomes.

SUMMARY:City Club of Cleveland's Conversation with Five Bullets Author Elliot Williams
DESCRIPTION:In Five Bullets\, Elliot Williams vaults back to gritty 1980s Manhattan and reexamines the first major true-crime story of the cable news era. Drawing on archives and interviews with many main characters\, including Goetz\, Williams presents a masterful and vivid tale that also tells the origin stories of larger-than-life figures like Al Sharpton\, Rudy Giuliani\, and Rupert Murdoch. Five Bullets demonstrates why\, in order to understand today’s debates about race\, crime\, safety\, and the media\, it’s imperative to reflect on what went down in the subway four decades ago.
