A Jewish refugee family aboard the SS St. Louis, Miami Harbor, 1939

  

This Week on Due Process 

Why, in 1939, was a shipload of German Jews not granted refuge? Why were they turned away by this country?  Why was the SS St. Louis forced back to Europe, where nearly a third of its passengers would be killed in the Holocaust?

It's an episode that cuts to critical questions of American law and justice.

On this edition of "Due Process," a look back at that "Voyage of the Damned," with a St. Louis survivor, Eva Wiener, and the leaders of the St. Louis Legacy Project.

In their documentary, "Complicit: The Untold Story of Why the Roosevelt Administration Denied Safe Haven to Jewish Refugees," Psychologist Ruth Ann Kalish and Lawyer Robert Krakow charge FDR with placing politics above compassion.

It may be the definitive political history of New Jersey's largest city. So its author - early activist, academic, Princeton PhD and onetime member of the New York Times Editorial Board - is our only guest for this candid conversation on Newark: how it got here ... and where it might be going.

Celebration - and smoke - when Colorado became the first state to legalize marijuana in 2012

  

This Week on Due Process  

Colorado was the first to legalize; Washington followed suit - and the buzz is spreading across the country. Two more states and the District of Columbia are putting it to their voters next month and a half dozen others are moving toward referendum.

New Jersey and New York both have legislation pending and public opinion polls show that most Americans now favor legal weed - and not just for medical use...

Is it a legal and social reform whose time has come? Or a misguided, reckless move?

On the next edition of "Due Process" we look at America's new take on marijuana with Udi Ofer of the ACLU of NJ, Jon-Henry Barr of the Municipal Prosecutors Association and former White House Adviser Kevin Sabet.

It's a "Due Process" worth watching. Please join us!

New on NJTV - Justice Sotomayor: Up Close and Personal

"Justice Sotomayor: Up Close and Personal"

on

airs: Sunday July 20 at 9:30 am and 7 pm

and Tuesday July 22 at 11:30pm

Justice Sonia Sotomayor at Seton Hall Law School

    

This Week on Due Process  

For five terms now, she's been a member of America's most elite club; just the third woman to be named to the U.S. Supreme Court, one of four to have ever served.

The New York Times says that in the term that ended last month, Justice Sonia Sotomayor finally "found her voice" - and that voice was front and center at Seton Hall Law School in her recent visit to Newark.  

"Due Process" was there as she judged a moot court competition, met with future lawyers, signed copies of her book, and spoke about her life and the law.

On this edition of "Due Process": Justice Sotomayor, candidly tracing the hard road that took her from the poverty of a Bronx housing project to a seat on the nation's highest court.  Following our field report from Seton Hall Law, Sandra King sits down with Rutgers Law Prof. Elise Boddie and former NJ State Bar President Karol Corbin Walker.

It's a unique chance to see a "wise Latina" justice, up close and personal.  Please join us!

New on NJTV - Maxing Out: The Consequences

"Maxing Out: The Consequences"

on

airs: Sunday July 13 at 9:30 am and 7 pm

and Tuesday July 15 at 11:30pm

    

This Week on Due Process 

Parole's denied.  The inmate's forced to serve out his sentence.  It's called maxing out - and it's happening more and more, especially in New Jersey, where inmates max out at twice the national average.

It's designed to be "tough on crime" - but a new national study shows it may have just the opposite effect, with maxed out prisoners more likely to commit new crimes than those released from prison early on supervised parole.

On the next edition of "Due Process," we look at the societal consequences of maxing out with studio guests: Sen. Ray Lesniak, Assemblyman Michael Patrick Carroll and Rutgers Law Prof. Doug Eakeley.

Please join us this Sunday on NJTV!

"Foreclosures: A New Way Out?

on

airs: Sunday May 25 at 9:30 am and 7 pm

and Tuesday May 27 at 11:30pm

    

This Week on Due Process  

The mortgage bubble burst ... And, suddenly, so did your biggest investment!

Should your town be bailing you out in the name of Eminent Domain?

That was Irvington Mayor Wayne Smith's plan - to make Irvington the second municipality in the country to buy up underwater mortgages and keep residents in their homes.

Defeated in the May 13 mayoral race, Smith will leave office July 1, but his proposal will continue to raise debate about one possible way to stem home foreclosures.

The idea - which would have to survive court challenge - is the focus of this week's Due Process.

In the studio: Mayor Smith, Rutgers Law Dean and former Public Advocate Ron Chen and Bankruptcy Lawyer Tim Duggan.

"Day Out? Day's Pay!"

airs: Sunday May 18 at 9:30 am and 7 pm

and Tuesday May 20 at 11:30pm

Workers at this Newark Airport Dunkin' Donuts will be eligible for paid sick leave for the first time, beginning this month

    

  

          

              

This Week on Due Process  

You make minimum wage, live from paycheck to paycheck. A day off means a day without pay. So what do you do when you're sick? It's a question none of us would want to face, and it may be less than fair. But is it up to the government to make it right?

That question - at the heart of a growing movement to force private employers to give sick leave with pay to ALL workers - is the focus of this week's edition of "Due Process."

New York City's on board, and so are Newark and Jersey City, whose new mandates may make a real difference for the working poor. We take to the streets and shops and even Newark airport to talk to workers and employers, while, in the studio, a heated debate features New Jersey Citizen Action Executive Director Phyllis Salowe-Kaye, Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop, and Jack Mozloom of the National Federation of Independent Business.

  

You'll want to join us!

   "Junius Williams: Unfinished Agenda"

on

airs: Sunday April 20 at 9:30 am and 7 pm

and Tuesday April 22 at 11:30pm

Junius Williams with his old friend and one-time mentor, Tom Hayden (Early 60's)

This Week on Due Process

His life mirrors the movements of the last half century.  From southern segregation and civil rights work in the South to organizing against inequality in the North; from the call to black power to the disappointment of electoral answers.

Junius Williams' new book "Unfinished Agenda: Urban Politics in the Era of Black Power," traces the American scene of the last half century through his own life story: in the Movement, in the law, in urban politics and in Newark - the city he came to organize ... and never left.

As you'll see in this edition of Due Process, it's a story so emblematic that the Smithsonian Institution invited Junius - and his onetime mentor, Tom Hayden - to share a personal and political history of the last 50 years.

It's a Due Process you won't want to miss.
