Rebecca Farinas of the Texas State Philosophy department and Other Side Drive Executive Producer, Kimberly Clay, invite you to a new podcast series: Philosophy Mixed, a study of the nature of things. With guest Tafari Robertson, founder of the Pan African Action Committee at Texas State, we dive into the topic of black identity and the role media plays in covering stories of race and free speech.

For more studies on this topic, we recommend researching black philosophers W.E.B. DuBois and Alain Locke, and activists like Kimberlé Crenshaw.

For interesting events and lectures covering this topic even further, don’t forget to check out the Texas State Philosophy Dialogue series schedule.

Race And Black Identity In The 21st Century

In the second installment of Philosophy Mixed, Kimberly Clay and Dr. Craig Hanks talk with Caroline Gnagy, author of Texas Jailhouse Music: A Prion Band History, and Dr. Flore Chevaillier, professor in the Texas State English department and author of The Body of Writing: an Erotics of Contemporary American Fiction (The Ohio State University Press, 2013) and Divergent Trajectories: Interviews with Innovative Fiction Writers (The Ohio State University Press, 2017).

In this episode, we discuss freedom versus control over human bodies and the effect that has on our autonomy.

For more research on this topic, we recommend Vas: An Opera in Flatland by Steve Tomasula, The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison, the writings of Hélène Cixous, and Caroline Gnagy’s book Texas Jailhouse Music: A Prion Band History.

Women in Prison

By Kimberly Clay

Graphic by Kimberly Clay

The United States has the highest incarceration rate in the world, with 2.3 million people in American prisons, and in the past few decades there has been an unsettling increase of women in prison. In this podcast, we cover the topic of injustices faced by women in the prison, the role of motherhood when families are separated by the justice system, and the power of feminism in a place that strips power and dignity from incarcerated individauls.

You can now check out the documentary The Grey Area: Fmeinism Behind Bars from the Alkek library thanks to Rebecca Farinas, Craig Hanks, and other faculty members of the Texas State University Philosophy department.

For further reading, we recommend the article by Jane Addams, "If Men were Seeking the Franchise," from which we pulled the quote for our topic introduction, and Temi Ikudayisi’s article in the University Star, “Tampons in prison are a basic necessity.”

Women In Prison

In a people’s court, prosecutors and defense attorneys are absent and individuals represent themselves. These courts are often referred to as “inferior courts” or lower courts, because of the simplicity of what they handle and the simplicity in the way they function, but they can play an important role, allowing us to rethink legal theory and the way the judicial system operates.
 
Dr. Vincent Luizzi and Dr. Audwin Anderson of the Texas State Philosophy department dive into the topic of people’s courts with Dr. Farinas and Dr. Baltzly, discussing the way people’s courts operate and how they can influence change in the way we view justice and law.
 
Dr. Luizzi’s book Appeal to the People's Court: Rethinking Law, Judging, and Punishment is expected to be released in May
 
For further reading, we also recommend Logical Method and Law by John Dewey
