Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Social justice has become a common catch phrase for talking heads, academic programs, and habitual Facebook sharers over the past several years. Social justice can seem like a form of entitlement; "we want the equality we have coming due!" In a neoliberal era, social justice can also seem l…ike a catchy form of branding. An unexamined, feel-good political nebula. Over the past two years, the contributors to Lehigh Valley Vanguard have shaken the rug to explore commonly accepted views of how to achieve a just society for all. We've explored what it means to be poor, disenfranchised, and enslaved; institutional racism and classism are frequent topics. The essays in this volume reflect a dialectic inquisitiveness you will find frequently in Lehigh Valley Vanguard. A pleading that our systems do not go unexamined or neglected. From the first essay by Mark Blasini, "The Hell with Rights," we are asked to analyze the minutiae we take for granted in our (sometimes blind) quest for jurisprudence by questionable authority figures. In "How Often Have You Felt Free?" Karen Henninger explores our fractured thinking around structures of oppression along with our tendency towards self-imprisonment. Rob Los Ricos explains the development of the Western world and its precipitation (and perpetuation) of slave culture in "Overcoming a Culture of Slavery." Philadelphia representative Jordan Harris implores us to recognize our implicit racism and its degenerative effects on our culture in "The Dying American Dream of Equality." Jake Johnson takes a look at pressures towards "normalcy" through the lens of Aldous Huxley and Erich Fromm, commenting on our unquestioned obedience to warmongering and self-doubt in an insane world. In "The Language of the Law: a Question of Ownership" I deal with institutional racism, neoliberal erosions of justice, and economic inequality. Along with discussing police brutality and the ever memorable "Stars and Bars" flag controversy, Wes Bishop forces us to search our understanding of equity. Randall Allen glimpses into the life of a literary scholar to uncover historical voices explicating years of cultural violence. Finally, Maximo Vasquez leaves us with some resonant points about poverty and Social Darwinism. Hopefully, this collection will be a companion to your own quest to define a socially just world in spite of convoluted brands and campaigns that claim "social justice" as their empty moniker.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. From the beginning, Lehigh Valley Vanguard has been a political publication with deep ties to the arts community. If not overtly political, the act of creating art certainly subverts the working class paradigm. In a neoliberal society, the job you do to earn money is supposed to (and truly…can) encompass all of life. To be working class and decide to create art is radical because you are expected to be a peon who only thinks about your "professional" life. The artists in our communities have chosen to embrace their ability to create. This collection is dedicated to exploring that choice. Creating over consuming is a step in the direction of resistance. We live a short life and we have to start believing what we do matters. A line from William Black comes to mind, "We were placed here on Earth with little space to bear the beams of love." Art is that labor. We should reflect artisan craftsmanship in everything we do. The collection begins with its namesake "Art and Existence" by Richard Morris, a speculative essay on the life of the creative person. Mark Blasini delves into the concept of art as life in "What it Means to be an Artist: a Dreamer's Manifesto." Doug Roysdon brings out the need to recognize value in arts communities, especially local ones, in "The Regional Arts." To close out the collection, as a form of art appreciation, you'll read reviews by myself, Ryan Scacci, and Ann E. Michael. The arts will always prove essential to political movements. It's up to all of us to support them, nurture them.even just notice them. And to see the artisan within all of us. This item is printed on demand.
