QUESTION: Video Archives

question / pregunta: 

It seems as though there are no listings on your site for librarians to find radical videos to add to their libraries. Paper Tiger Television has an AMAZING archive of videos that challenge mainstream media and education. I would love to see their catalog link to this page. Our organization, Deep Dish TV, also has a very powerful catalog. One of the dream projects on creating an anti-racism shelf could be created out of our programming alone. You would be amazed at all the materials you would find. And there are so many other groups as well... Have you thought about adding something like that? I'm sure Paper Tiger and Deep Dish would be able to help.

QUESTION: how would I find the final decision in the case Neal v. MDOC?

question / pregunta: 

In 1996, the class-action lawsuit Neal v. MDOC was filed on behalf of women prisoners in Michigan. I've found several references of the case in articles in prison journals on-line, but nothing that has stated the final outcome of the case. Where would I look to find the most recent (or final) decision of a case?

Greetings -

Looking for free or relatively low cost GIS mapping resources and data sets that could be used for mapping a range of social, economic and environmental justice indicators and other demographic trends in the United States. We're looking to produce both national and selected maps. The target list of states to highlight include Washington, Minnesota, Michigan, Illinois, Florida, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Mississippi, Georgia and North Carolina. Thanks always to Radical Reference, for this great service and the spirit in which it is provided.

QUESTION: Trying to Verify Gandhi & Sinclair Lewis Quotes

question / pregunta: 

I am trying to verify the accuracy and source of two often-cited quotations:

1. “First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Next they fight you. Then you win.” – Mahatma Gandhi

Did Gandhi actually say this? Do you know when?

2. “When fascism comes to America it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross." - Sinclair Lewis

Is this actually a Sinclair Lewis quote (sometimes it is credited to Huey Long); if if it Lewis when did he write it?

QUESTION: Scottish co-produced films

question / pregunta:
