Race, Reform and the New Retrenchment: the perils of post-racialism after Obama
Date: Wednesday 11 May 2016...
Time: 6.30-8pm
Venue: Old Theatre, Old Building
Speaker: Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw
Chair: Professor Peter Trubowitz
Heightening tensions in the US over police killings of black people have undermined confidence that the election of Barack Obama signaled a new era on race relations in the US. The more lasting legacy may be the one championed by late Justice Scalia whose legal philosophy currently underwrites the central tensions in equality law in the United States. Through a Critical Race Theory prism, Professor Crenshaw will discuss Black Lives Matter and Say Her Name as challenges to contemporary jurisprudence on race, and assess the new openings presented by current events.
Kimberlé Crenshaw (@sandylocks) is Distinguished Professor of Law at the University of California Los Angeles and the Columbia School of Law. She is also a Centennial Professor in the LSE Gender Institute visiting the department in the Summer Term.
The hashtag for this event will be #LSEUSRACE

- There is a free public event at Brunel University taking a critical ...look at Tween Girl Culture (and celebrity 'role models'). It is an illustrated lecture by performance artist Bryony Kimmings on Thursday 10th July from 6pm-7:30pm. There's more information on this below. Come along! Although there is no charge, places are limited so you need to book here: http://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/celebyouth-bryony-kimmings-performance-tickets-8880647255 More information: A year ago performance artist Bryony, sick of the sexualised pop offer available to tweens, decided to create her own alternative pop star for kids. To do this she put her 9 year old niece Taylor at the helm, arguing that kids creating their own popular culture was better than the corporations and record labels infiltrating and commodifying childhood for them. Bryony wanted to prove to Taylor that anything was possible if you put your mind to it; that their family's could be activists and that 9 year old opinions were important! They created Catherine Bennett together; a tuna pasta eating pop star and part time paleontolgoist who sang about things other than love, fame and money and they went on a incredible journey together. Bryony became Catherine Bennett, Taylor her manager. This is an illustrated lecture performance by Bryony, expect tales of being invited to the houses of parliament, meeting Yoko Ono, visiting Woman's Hour, being on Sky News across the world AND played as real pop on Radio 1!

4starUpdate. This was more than marginalizing. It was a complete terror from Justice Mohammed Yunusa.
After our letter date...d 1 July 2014 to the Lagos State Governor and Attorney General that exposed the fraudulentDPP advice dated 12 February, 2014, to discharge the arsonist in the magistrate court. Who with her visitors planted gas fire and chemicals to burn my Japanese family. On December 2014 Mrs Olabisi Ogungbesan was promoted to a judge and Mrs Idowu Alakija became the head of DPP, that is how the Lagos State Governor positioned these two old Yoruba women to continue their non-hidden endless harm against us.
On March 18 2016, I, Anacho met Alakija in her Lagos State DPP office, and she couldn’t hide her feeling of never want to see me, and no notice was given to me about their preparation to return the arsonist and her visitors, who are Redeemed Church members to the appropriat e court. Under our President Dr Mohammadu Buhari anti-corru ption watch, why is it taking the DPP too long to prosecute a crime that was duly exposed?
OPEN LETTER TO G7, NIGERIAN NATIONAL ASSEMBLY, G20, DR MUHAMMADU BUHARI AND ALL AFRICAN PRESIDENTS.
This is the truth about how Redeemed Christian Church did so many atrocitiesto my Japanese family. It contribute d for them to gain the Vice President seat and Lagos State Governor seat.
Assistant Comptroller of Customs Alhaji Umaru, who released the empty container of motorcycle s under the Letter of Credit (L/C) out of the bonded terminal, and all other suspects confessed that they had committed the crime. However, CP Lagos State then Mr Akpoyibo, who retired as DIG and is a member of Redeemed Church, diverted our criminal case file by ordering Panti to send the file to Lagos State DPP instead of charging them to criminal court.
Mrs Ogungbesanand Mrs Idowu Alakija who handled the file are the family members of Redeemed Church. They crashed the credibilit y of Nigerian Custom and Police with their legal advice (dated 8 July 2009, signed by Mrs Ogungbesan ) which hurt our country’s relationsh ip with G20, especially G7, and corruptly hid the main culprits’ names of Nigerian Customs staff (Hausa/ Fulani/ Yoruba tribes - Assistant Controller of Custom Bapetel Umaru, Shuaibu D. Aliyu, Mrs Onota I.S.), saying that all the suspects Nigerian Police indicted for conspiracy and stealing should be set free, and that there is no evidence against those suspects of stealing. They ignored the power of sophistica ted security in L/ C that makes it impossible for the consignee and his financial bank to receive or accept an empty container. Up till date their advice stands as a disaster to the Nigerian judiciary.
Shola Oladejo who rented a part of our house at No.17C, Drive 4, Princess and Princess Estate, Abuja, has refused to pay his rent. From my investigation, I discovered he is a member of REDEEMED CHURCH. He is planning to cause havoc with my worker, which will lead to go to court where they often use to confiscate our properties .
My facebook friends and IG, help to call Shola Oladejo (081------, 080------- ) to leave our house immediatel y with the money he is owing us. Redeemed Church members are acting like a terrorist organizati on. They are worse than Asahara Shoko.
Update: The demon redeem never succeeded to drag us to court, finally, packed out of our house on 25 June 2016 without paying one cent from soooooo many money he is owing us. His phone numbers hereby removed from our page.
Redeemed Christian Church went ahead to conspire with Mrs Obianyor our devilish neighbor to set gas and chemical to burn my Japanese family inside our house. In their bid to please Hausa/Fulani who started these atrocities with some Yoruba Mulims inside Nigerian Customs when Alhaji Tinubu was Lagos state Governor and Osinbajo, a pastor of Redeemed Christian Church, was the Attorney General of Lagos State. Osinbajo is currently VP of Nigeria.
This setup of atrocitiesagainst us spread to all our investment s in Nigeria.
- Our guest house in my own village Umu Okwaraji in Nkwerre, Imo State is in trouble with Late Anele CHAIRMAN of Abia State National Union of Road Transport Workers and his company, while Orji Uzo Kalu was the Governor Of Abia State then. Late Gani Fawehinmi Chambers was our counsel when Gani (SAN) was alive.
- Our 12 plots of land in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, for mini estate which was organized by an old Anambra man, C.N. Ogamba, of No.290, Aba Road, Port Harcourt. Barr Nwokorie is handling it.
- Our house in Abuja organized and bought on our behalf by Union Homes is in trouble. Our counsel is S.I. Ameh (SAN).
- Our own living house in Lagos was set ablaze by Mrs Obianyor and Redeemed Church members. Lagos State judiciary covered mainly by Redeemed Church members are defending the arsonists.
- We went to court for civil suit (No.FHC/L/CS/388/ 2007) against Nigerian Customs Service Board and others. D.I. Osuala is our counsel (for how many years?). Our suit was handled by Federal High Court Chief Judge Abutu (rtd.). Archibong took over and adjourned for trial early 2012, but was transferre d. Justice Mohammed Yunusa from Borno State took over. I Anacho saw open wickedness of hell fire of injustice. This was more than marginaliz ing. It was a complete terror from Justice Yunusa. He has no ability to differenti ate the difference between a commercial case and others.
Only our lands in Ibeju Lekki are not in trouble yet. Maybe when we want to develop it.
Alhaji Fashola took over from Alhaji Tinubu as the Lagos State Governor. Their atrocitiesdiverted to our goods in Lagos State. Our rented warehouse was broken and thousands of marine engines and motorcycle s, worth more than million dollars according to exchange rate then, were taken away without any notice from the Lagos State Deputy Sheriff. Obviously their reason to attempt to murder our Japanese family with chemical and gas fire was for us not to be alive and expose to the world, what they have done to us in Lagos State. Their fantastica l corruptnes s especially in Lagos forced us to beg for our right / properties.
We complainedto the current Governor Mr Ambode who is a member of Redeemed Church, also to Dr Muhammadu Buhari and some high authoritie s in the world. Governor office via Lagos judiciary advised us to apply for our money with their letter dated 20 October 2015. We applied with our letter dated 27 October 2015 and the full details of our stocks, also with our reminder dated 25 November, 2015. So far Ambode is delaying to answer us and seriously looking for investors. I wonder how many companies seriously invest like us.
We made all these progress with our hardwork in Great Japan with overwhelming strength from Kamisama.N o single bank loan even in Nigeria No country in Africa can look down or regard as a poor company or family who achieved like us.
G7, Nigerian National Assembly, G20, Dr Muhammadu Buhari And All African Presidents, kindly tell Mr Ambode to pay us/ returning of our assets and something tangible, and warn Lagos State DPP to allow justice to be done in the arson/ attempted murder case. My spirit cries for their long time tricks of busy destroying and dividing our Japanese family since 2005 till date.. Kindly read the full details on our page. Anacho Nnojap See More
