This Week on Due Process 


Imagine a judge who scolds as if she were your mother; offers help with your problems and applauds your success. 

She's Victoria Pratt, presiding in Newark's Community Court, sometimes called the "social work court."
 
It's part of what's called "procedural justice, " a new, more creative, more effective way of dealing with low level repeat offenders.
 
Here, there's help with addiction, with housing, with employment - for those who are ready to receive it.
 
A possible way out of crime, without the punishment; a new way of seeing the role of the court - with a whole new kind of judge.
 
Judge for yourself as Due Process goes inside Judge Pratt's courtroom, where human dramas play out every day.
 
In the studio, Judge Pratt and I are joined by Rutgers School of Criminal Justice Prof. Todd Clear, author of "The Punishment Imperative."
 
I hope you'll join us, too!

This Week on Due Process 


Khalil Gibran Muhammad, scholar, author and great-grandson of Nation of Islam founder Elijah Muhammad.  He earned his PhD at Rutgers, but his national reputation at New York'sSchomburg Center for Research in Black Culture.
 
Now, after five years as president of the prestigious Schomburg, Muhammad - author of the prize-winning "Condemnation of Blackness: Race, Crime and the Making of Modern Urban America" - is returning to the academic life as a tenured professor at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.
 
So, on this edition of "Due Process," we reprise my wide-ranging interview with Khalil.  Our talk runs the gamut from the historic criminalization of black men to the modern bias in urban policing, from the legacy of his great-grandfather to the need for ongoing reform.
 
If you missed it the first time around, you'll want to join me for this one.
 
Thanks for watching!

This Week on Due Process  


After a school year filled with black protest on campus, Princeton issued its decision: Woodrow Wilson's name would remain in its place of honor.
 
Although the students and their faculty supporters had documented the virulent anti-black, pro-Klan positions taken by Wilson as President of Princeton and, later, of the United States, the student demands have been largely rejected.
 
So what better time to welcome MIT Professor Craig Steven Wilder, author of "Ebony and Ivy: Race, Slavery, and the Troubled History of America's Universities," to "Due Process?"
 
Years of seminal research into the centuries-long links between slavery and the American Academy, links whose effects are felt still, led to his important, award-winning book.
 
On this edition of "Due Process," Wilder reveals the extent of academic complicity in this country's shameful past - placing the Princeton demands in historical perspective.
 
It's a "Due Process" you won't want to miss.
 
Please join me!

This Week on Due Process  


Video images are powerful.  Just this week, a woman's quick use of her cell phone recorded the fatal shooting of her boyfriend - by a Minnesota cop - and launched yet another national outcry.
 
But cell phones are no longer the only cameras recording interaction between citizens and police.
 
The body worn camera, too, is increasingly on the scene; attached to an officer's chest, providing video evidence of stops, searches, arrests and more.
 
Advocates say it promotes greater accountability.  Police say it protects them from false accusations.  Civil liberties groups say the cameras are only as good as the rules that control them.
 
On this week's Due Process: getting the full picture of the body cam, from the street and in the studio.  Guests include: Essex Sheriff Armando Fontoura, State Sen. Linda Greenstein, Rutgers Law Dean Ron Chen and Ryan Haygood of the NJ Institute for Social Justice.
 
Please join me!
