BEYOND THE BARS: UNTIL SHE’S FREE
The 9th Annual Beyond the Bars Conference of the Center for Justice at Columbia University will focus on both the incarceration and criminalization of women and girls themselves as well as of their families and communities. Our focus is inclusive of transgender, non-binary, and gender non-conforming people. The many struggles for justice, equity and safety led by women and girls directly impacted by the criminal legal system will be at the heart of the conference as we create a space to further strengthen and advance change. Beyond the Bars 2019 will continue developing the collaboration between universities and the many ongoing efforts to end mass incarceration.
It is our hope that this conference will bolster efforts to challenge the impacts of incarceration and criminalization on women and girls in the following ways:
Convene and support a national and international network of women and organizations to share and advance strategy and resources
Help articulate and amplify a feminist vision and analysis
Address difficult issues and questions within the movements to end gender-based violence and criminalization and incarceration
Strengthen and amplify the growing voices and roles of directly impacted women and girls
Enhance the knowledge and skills for a broad range of change makers
Further catalyze university involvement in the struggle to end mass incarceration

This Is Not This Heat with Yvette at (le) poisson rouge
7:00 pm doors | 8:00 pm show | 18+
$30 advance | $35 day of show
Within their two albums and an EP, This Heat perfected a strange and volatile new strain of avant-garde rock that time has proved to be massively influential, a blueprint for much that would follow: post-rock, math rock, homemade musique concrète, experimental electronica…..
Although widely considered to be Post-Punk’s finest they actually began performing their music in the early days of London’s punk era. Ahead of their time, their music sounds as startlingly original and relevant, live and on record, as the day it was created.
Exactly 40 years to the day of their first gig in 1976 the two surviving members (Bullen and Hayward) of the original three came together with a large group of collaborators to play under the project title of THIS IS NOT THIS HEAT. Selling out a two-day residency at London’s Café Oto in a matter of hours the consensus was unanimous that all present had been witness to something of cultural significance. Flooded with invitations from around the world, 2017 saw THIS IS NOT THIS HEAT take to the road.
“… It does feel like we’ve been witness to something special. A fine body of work has been brought to life with energy and vitality that seems improbable nearly 40 years after the fact.” – The Wire
“This doesn’t feel like nostalgia but a new beginning” –The Guardian
“Bowie and I hit it off insanely and talked about Mishima and This Heat and all sorts of stuff”
–Arcade Fire’s Owen Pallett on meeting David Bowie
“I get asked to play more music like This Heat, but to my knowledge, there is no other music like This Heat”
– John Peel

In her new book, We Want to Do More Than Survive, Professor Bettina L. Love draws on the history of the 19th century abolitionist movement to imagine radical new ways of teaching and organizing for social change, moving beyond what she calls the Educational Survival Complex, and towards Abolitionist Teaching.

For countless guitarists Woodstock was a life-changing experience. Now fifty years later AGS brings together some of our era’s most singular improvising guitarists to seek new vistas with this powerful, epochal music. We are not covering these artists. Rather we are using the Woodstock repertoire as vehicles for exploration. We aim to bring a sense of adventure, peace, love, funk, and freedom to the concert, all of which characterized the initial event.
The Alternative Guitar Summit, founded in 2010, is a yearly summit of daring, inventive players who emphasize new and unusual approaches to the guitar. The music we present celebrates the guitar’s enormous range, beyond style or genre.
The AGS seeks to commission new work, whether improvised, notated, or both. We also celebrate important historical figures and events in the guitar’s history.

Joel Harrison is the founder of The Summit
Everett Bradley is one of the most esteemed singers in NYC having toured with Bruce Springsteen, Paul McCartney and hundreds of others
Brandon Seabrook is a one-of-a-kind wild man who will blow your mind
Ben Monder is considered to be one of the great jazz guitarists of his generation
Anupam Shobhakar is considered to be one of the great young sarode players in N. Indian classical music
Selvaganesh was part of John McLaughlin’s seminal band Shakti and is one of the great percussionists of our time

Down a labyrinthian maze of a mountainous mansion,
Through twists and turns, past ballrooms and bedrooms
stained with secrets and masquerading eyes,
A quest for the proverbial pearl.
Weaving past powdered pompadours,
Pearlescence in the periphery,
Gleaming in the dark, beckoning you…
An opulent warehouse, a den of desires, a soundtrack for your senses.
Sometimes you have to sniff the poison to find the pearl…

At the age of 85, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has developed a lengthy legal legacy while becoming an unexpected pop culture icon. But the unique personal journey of her rise to the nation’s highest court has been largely unknown, even to some of her biggest fans – until now. RBG explores Ginsburg’s life and career. The film captures Ginsburg’s determination as she goes from being a brilliant legal scholar shunned by law firms because of her gender to a masterful appellate litigator who advanced women’s rights by arguing and winning several key cases before the nine men on the Supreme Court in the 1970s, and then finally to her role as a member of the Court.
Join MALA and the Center for Jewish History for a special screening and panel discussion of this critically acclaimed award-winning documentary. We will be joined by two of RBG’s filmmakers, Associate Producer Nadine Natour and Director/Producer Julie Cohen for an in depth conversation on their journeys in chronicling the life and career of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
About the Speakers:
Julie Cohen has directed and produced nine feature documentaries, including RBG (Magnolia, Participant, CNN Films), The Sturgeon Queens (7th Art Releasing/PBS); and American Veteran (Freestyle). She has won a duPont Columbia Award, two Gracie Awards, three New York Emmy Awards and the 2017 Panavision Showcase Award for best New York filmmaker. Before she started making documentaries, Julie was a staff producer for Dateline NBC and the creator and producer of Supreme Court Watch on Court TV. She holds a B.A. from Colgate and masters’ degrees from Columbia Journalism School and Yale Law School.
The associate producer of RBG, Nadine Natour has shot, field produced, and edited a feature-length doc, American Veteran (Freestyle Releasing; Winner of the G.I. Film Festival Founders Award and the Panavision Showcase Award), and co-edited The Sturgeon Queens (PBS: 2015 Berlinale Official Selection). She is a 2009 graduate of the University of Virginia and a 2012 graduate of the Columbia Journalism School and a 2012 – 2013 News Associate at NBC.
Paul M. Barrett (program moderator) joined the NYU Center for Business and Human Rights as deputy director in September 2017 after spending more than three decades as a journalist and author focusing on the intersection of business, law, and society. Most recently, Paul worked for 12 years for Bloomberg Businessweek magazine, and from 1986 to 2005, he wrote for The Wall Street Journal, serving as the newspaper’s Supreme Court correspondent and later as the page one special projects editor.
