Boston Review is an award-winning magazine of ideas, politics, and culture, independent and nonprofit since 1975. Animated by hope and committed to equality, we believe in the power of collective reasoning and imagination to create a more just world.
We publish leading writers, scholars, and activists on the most pressing political, intellectual, and cultural debates of our time. We take a special interest in speaking truth to power on matters of grave injustice-from war, human rights, and mass incarceration to poverty, inequality, and threats to democracy. Our pages include work by Noam Chomsky, Susan Sontag, Arundhati Roy, Nancy Fraser, Robin D. G. Kelley, bell hooks, Vivian Gornick, Elizabeth Warren, and Bernie Sanders.
By taking ideas seriously, we aim to promote the exercise of public reason, create a more egalitarian public sphere, and strengthen movements for justice. And since democracy depends on public discussion, we make everything we publish free to read online.

Demystifying Metaracism: Tricia Rose with Robin D. G. Kelley
Переглядів 47Місяць тому
In recent years, condemnations of racism in America have echoed from the streets to corporate boardrooms. At the same time, politicians and commentators fiercely debate racism’s very existence. And so, our conversations about racial inequalities remain muddled. In Metaracism, pioneering scholar Tricia Rose cuts through the noise with a bracing and invaluable new account of what systemic racism ...
The New Blue Divide: Jacob S. Hacker and Paul Pierson with Lily Geismer
Переглядів 107Місяць тому
For decades, center-left parties in the West have been moving right on economic issues. They have also become less oriented to the working class, growing their support among the affluent and highly educated-what economist Thomas Piketty has dubbed the “Brahmin Left.” Until recently, the U.S. Democratic Party has been no exception-leading to accusations, from both left and right, that it engages...

A New Politics of Freedom: Aziz Rana with Jefferson Cowie
Переглядів 2783 місяці тому
Freedom has a dual legacy. On the one hand, it evokes struggles associated with the left, from abolition and anticolonialism to women's and queer liberation. On the other hand, it has long been a watchword of the right, from neoliberals to white nationalists. In our new issue Reclaiming Freedom, Aziz Rana leads a forum on the path to a different politics of freedom. In the United States, he arg...
Reclaiming Freedom: Virtual Launch

Freedom has a dual legacy. On the one hand, it stands for the great struggles long associated with the left, from abolition and an...
What Happened to Liberalism?: Samuel Moyn with Becca Rothfeld
Переглядів 4115 місяців тому
Liberalism is in crisis-but why, exactly, and how did we get here? In his new book, Liberalism Against Itself: Cold War Intellectuals and the Making of Our Times, historian Samuel Moyn argues that by the mid-twentieth century, many liberals, recoiling from totalitarianism and devastating wars, redefined liberalism around a new ideal: preserving individual liberty at all costs. In this virtual e...

What’s Wrong with Equality of Opportunity: Christine Sypnowich with Ben Burgis
Переглядів 516 місяців тому
The last decade has delivered increasingly bleak portraits of vast inequalities in income, wealth, health, and other measures of well-being in many rich countries. What should we do about them? One common response is to argue that inequality is only a problem to the extent that it reflects unequal opportunities. In much of the West, political discourse tends to converge on the assumption that o...
The Political Theory of Algorithms: Josh Simons in conversation with Lily Hu

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are reshaping our world. Powerful prediction tools are changing how decisions are made in key legal, medical, and consumer spheres, narrowing opportunities for the exercise of judgment, empathy, and creativity. How, then, are we to put democracy at the heart of AI governance? In this conversation with Lily Hu, political theorist Josh Simons argues th...
The Theory and Practice of Solidarity: Mie Inouye with Daniel Martinez HoSang

In Boston Review’s summer 2023 issue, organizer and political theorist Mie Inouye leads a forum on obstacles to collective action today. Rejecting the language of “allyship” and the politics of deference, she makes the case for maintaining solidarity thr...

pathetic CIA clown car. LOL
*Great lecture by Professor Robin D.G. Kelley* .
Can’t hear the speakers
Robin's brilliance never ceases to amaze me. This is exactly what I needed to hear!
Thanks for watching!
The Triad for the left should be equality, solidarity, and democracy. Forget freedom. Its completely worthless except for protecting property rights. Even Aziz's examples of liberation demonstrate the failure of freedom. Freedom gets us nowhere because it doesnt fundamentally change the system. We need to be talking about control, not freedom. Cant believe Aziz dosent know that any social contract that puts more obligations and duties on people will require sacrificing some freedoms.
Supermax Prison Cell Extraction Time-Out during 4th period - June 12 2008
Fascinating discussion
Thanks for listening!
So sad this is how abuse happens dealing with a psychotic break and stripping him they can take advantage of him which is so sad and sick
why they need to undress the inmate in restrained him to chairs
put the restrains really tight cuts the blood circulation
Putting*
Inmate acts like a kid and just making things worse for himself and the officers
He acts like a "Sesame Street" kid who loves to watch that show at his current age.
Mommy never gave him his hugs so he gets attention anyway he can. 🤡
No way that's legal that's so sick
Why shouldn't it be legal? I think it's perfectly reasonable to strap a dangerous convict in a chair (maybe not naked) if he misbehaves rather than reward him with fairy cakes and cookies whilst letting him roam free in your unrealistic fantasy world.
Not only he doesn't need just mace in his face here but needs pepper spray or a taser here for him to chill here!
Did this Inmate die at a New Jersey Prison?
well, he looked like he was daring them, then he was upset they took him out.
That's not aloud to happen he's using spray in his face the justice system In America needs to change that's cruelty
Since King the afro community and US I am afraid to say is self destruction mode and King and his like has help this along
There is no easy way to deal with this. They did what had to be done. One bad thing though was the position they used to remove his clothing. Big chance of asphyxia or excited delirium.
instead of fighting with these inmates they should hold them down and have someone inject them with a tranquilizer - would make getting them into the chair so much easier
all a act quiet as a mouse,,
And that young man grew up to be Larry Lawton
Weak spray
Exactly what u gonna do staff
Poor bad ass piece of shit. Tough fella, eh? Serves you right.
I bet he was sore after he came down from whatever drugs he took.
So did this guy pass out or die ?
21 Years Later
Muuuudaw Fukawwwwwwww!!!!!

Thank you!
And yet another episode of Human rights in the US. They only apply to rich white men.
He’s naked a least let him dress
Damn 20 years later and still the same things we do 😂
Don’t change things that aren’t broken

You mean still breakin bones, rippin flesh and killing people and getting away with it under the cover of this being a ‘job’? Nice one...
That not a super max prison its solitairy confeinment
they should have used fox labs pepper spray🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶🌶
Sloppy restraint chair work
This squad sucks!
Laying face down on the ground cuffed up.... "Come on mother fuckers let's go"... Yeah maybe just leave it now pal.
The correctional major should have used fox labs pepper spray brand. That brand of mace makes the other oc pepper sprays feel like cool water. That fox labs oc pepper spray feels like someone branded your face with a super hot fire branding iron.
Nah man that Sabre red 10% feels horrible
Fox labs did not exist back then.
Bruh like how bad did people screw up to end up like that
If your too much of an ass to be in a regular prison setting you end up in supermax. Theres usually always severe mental health issues.
@@tomb70 yeah the people who got there really messed up
Why was the guy naked, and why did he act out?
Was soll das der wird doch fixiert was machen die den nackt der kann doch dann eh nichts machen
I would be impressed if I didn't already know that most of the people we lock up don't need to be there
