Hate Crimes in Cyberspace by Danielle Keats Citron
Call Number: HV6773.15.C92 C57 2014
ISBN: 9780674368293
Publication Date: 2014-09-22
The author examines the controversies surrounding cyber-harassment, arguing that it should be considered a matter for civil rights law and that social norms of decency and civility must be leveraged to stop it. In an in-depth investigation of a problem that is too often trivialized by lawmakers and the media, Citron exposes the startling extent of personal cyber-attacks and proposes practical, lawful ways to prevent and punish online harassment. She reveals the serious emotional, professional, and financial harms incurred by victims. Persistent online attacks disproportionately target women and frequently include detailed fantasies of rape as well as reputation-ruining lies and sexually explicit photographs.
Should Race Matter? by David Boonin
Call Number: HT1521 .B634 2011
ISBN: 9780521760867
Publication Date: 2011-11-14
In this book, philosopher David Boonin attempts to answer the moral questions raised by five important and widely contested racial practices: slave reparations, affirmative action, hate speech restrictions, hate crime laws, and racial profiling. Arguing from premises that virtually everyone on both sides of the debates over these issues already accepts, Boonin arrives at an unusual and unorthodox set of conclusions, one that is neither liberal nor conservative, color conscious nor color blind.

Silent Victims by Barbara Perry
Call Number: E98.C87 P46 2008
ISBN: 9780816525966
Publication Date: 2008-09-04
Hate crimes against Native Americans are a common occurrence, Barbara Perry reveals, although most go unreported. In this eye-opening book, Perry shines a spotlight on these acts, which are often hidden in the shadows of crime reports. She argues that scholarly and public attention to the historical and contemporary victimization of Native Americans as tribes or nations has blinded both scholars and citizens alike to the victimization of individual Native Americans.

Hate Crime
Call Number: eVideo
Publication Date: c1999, 2013
Part one of this program shows how the New South has found some answers to an old problem: racial violence—in this case church burnings in the rural flatlands of South Carolina. In part two, Hedrick Smith spotlights a pioneering high school class on tolerance that has changed the social climate at San Clemente High School, where tensions among whites, Latinos, blacks, and Asian-Americans led to brutal violence and killing in the 1990s. Deeply disturbed by this violence among teenagers, teacher Joe Moros devised a curriculum that confronts the causes and effects of intolerance—and 200 students later, his success is visible in the school’s notably reduced racial tensions.

This edition of Investigative Reports provides a chilling look at the skinheads, a volatile movement that became increasingly subtle and sophisticated in spreading its divisive and dangerous message. Unlike the original skinheads - too extreme to become a significant threat to society - the new skinheads worked hard to blend in with society as they coordinated their ongoing campaigns of extreme violence with other organized hate groups such as the KKK and Aryan Nation.
