Add Natalie and Jena to the L-fantasies
2008-02-28 12:56:00 "In an interesting topic for an interview, actress Natalie Portman said that she wouldn?t be averse to embarking on a lesbian relationship, for the simple reason that she doesn?t want to disconnect herself from half of the world population. The ?V For Vendetta? star said that she doesn?t understand why anyone would want to rule out half of the people out there, simply based on sex. "Why would you close yourself off from 50 per cent of people,? Contactmusic quoted Portman, as saying.Portman continued, ?I?ve never dated a woman or anything like it, but I think it?s much more about the person you fall in love with.?

Jena reporting - sound and fury signifying?what?
2008-02-07 21:40:00 Raquel Christie’s article in the latest American Journalism Review is a thorough analysis and critique of media coverage of the Jena 6 controversy which S&R has done its own thorough job of ranting about. Her conclusions, based on interviews with reporters and bloggers involved are relatively straightforward: 1) Local media slanted its coverage to make the Jena story as much about unfair reporting by the national media - thereby misleading casual observers of the Jena events that the story was about “more of the same” injustice in a stereotypically racist Southern small town. 2) National media pursued its usual “celebrity driven” line and only really went into the Jena story once national figures like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton associated themselves with it. 3) National media relied too much on using information provided to them by sources with agendas (including blogs such as this one). 4) Local media spent far too much time reporting about what...

Spring Hill, Florida: Just might be the new Jena?????
2008-01-25 00:00:00 Hello Everyone!!!! I'm back(for a minute). In the local newspaper around Spring Hill, Florida, we have had yet another situation wherein the local Gestapo abused its authority. A young man was arrested after going out of his house to see why the local sheriff deputies were holding his sister, cousin, and a couple of other teens in the squad car. The deputies manhandled the young man and charged him with a host of frivolous charges. This young man is only 14 years old!!!! We should all be concerned when officers of the law behave in this manner. I will bring more details as they become available.
Ignorant Fucks Keep Hate Alive in Jena, La.
2008-01-22 03:32:00 newsWeek: About 50 white separatists protested the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday Monday in this tiny town, which was thrust into the spotlight months ago by 20,000 demonstrators who claimed prosecutors discriminated against blacks. Police separated participants in the “pro-majority” rally organized by the Learned, Miss.-based Nationalist Movement from a racially mixed group of about 100 counter-demonstrators outside the LaSalle Parish Courthouse. There was no violence and one arrest, a counter-demonstrator. Chants of “No KKK” from the mostly college-age counter-demonstrators were met with a chant from the separatists that contained a racial epithet. Almost all the demonstrators and counter-demonstrators appeared to be from outside of Jena. At one point, dozens of state police forced back about 10 people, dressed in New Black Panther uniforms… | read more | similar articles:‘Jena 6′ Teen Agrees to Plea Deal‘Jena Six’ Case Spar...

The Silence of the Jena Tree

The Jena Six refers to a group of six black teenagers who were charged with the beating of Justin Barker, a white teenager at Jena (pronunciation: IPA: /? d? i? n? /) High School in Jena, Louisiana, United States, on December 4,2006. The beating followed a number of racially-charged incidents in the town, of which the earliest that has been reported was when three white students hung nooses from a tree at Jena High School after a black student asked permission from a school administrator to sit under the tree. The Jena Six case sparked protests by those who view the arrests and subsequent charges as excessive and racially discriminatory, especially as compared with the treatment of white Jena youths involved in other incidents. On September 20,2007, between ten and twenty thousand protesters marched on Jena in what was described as the 'largest civil rights...

White Supremacists to March at Jena
2007-11-04 13:37:00 Counter March to Al Sharpton Planned The Nationalist Movement will march at Jena to protest both the Jena Six and Martin Luther King. The planned march has already sparked reaction and is sure to spark even more as news of it spreads. Al Sharpton plans to lead another march the same day to draw attention to hate crimes. No word yet to the Sharpton reaction to the counter-march. It will be another case of “free speech” and the right to march vs. the message the Nationalist Movement promotes. Both sides are lining up for the battle. More on the march and black reaction from BET: The Nationalist Movement says it will bring its âtools for empowerment to Louisiana to defeat the demands of Al Sharpton.” This public event, called âNo to Jena 6, No to King,â will feature a two-mile parade, speeches, ceremonies and petitions “as a centerpiece to abolish King Day,” said the release. [BET] users were up in arms over the groupâs plans to march in the same t...
Jena Six mostly lies, according to Jena Times editor
2007-10-30 06:53:00 I had a "wait and see" attitude towards the "Jena six" incident, but this article in the Christian Science Monitor, if true, debunks the whole media narrative not to mention that of the black race hustlers. This isn't a left-right issue, as I see it. It has to do with media hysteria and the willingness of people to take political advantage of it (in this case, it was Democrats Clinton and Edwards). If Craig Franklin is correct, the whole thing was pathetic. Jena, La. - By now, almost everyone in America has heard of Jena, La., because they've all heard the story of the "Jena 6." White students hanging nooses barely punished, a schoolyard fight, excessive punishment for the six black attackers, racist local officials, public outrage and protests – the outside media made sure everyone knew the basics. There's just one problem: The media got most of the basics wrong. In fact, I have never before witnessed such a disgrace in professional journalism. Myths replaced facts, and...

Jena Six Update for October 11
2007-10-11 11:57:00 Our understanding of the Jena 6 story continues to evolve. The best sources for my particular analysis of the case have been students and one adult inside Jena. In particular, a law student in Jena seems to have his finger on the best analysis yet. The following analysis will rely heavily on his thinking.Sometimes I use an impressionistic analysis to try to get into the minds of some of the main protagonists in the case. In those cases, all of the usual cautions apply. What follows is a general timeline of some of the Jena 6 eventsIt is difficult to say what role race played in the Jena 6 series of incidents. The La Salle Parish Sheriff's Department do use the term "racial tensions"to describe the events of December 1-3, 2006 - the fights at Gotta Go and the Fair Barn and the Barker attack. This is the first time in the Jena 6 events law enforcement officials used that term.Some Jena residents feel that there are little or no racial motives anywhere in this case, on the part of ei...

Jena LA, Now New York, NY - Hangman's Noose Is Criminal and Racist Symbol
2007-10-10 21:07:00 When is anyone going to realize that a hangman's noose is no joke. It's a criminal act implying someone's desire to murder someone else because they're different and historically because they're Black. This was just done in New York at Columbia University , but totally unlike the town of Jena, LA and its terrible district attorney , the people at Columbia called a town hall meeting on the issue. I hope they catch the person who did it and jail them for a good long time. The main problem is we don't teach young people that this is wrong or that diversity is good and racism is bad. So with each passing generation, we're doomed to see the same mistakes we made in the past as a culture. I hope I'm wrong on this.
