ND Cap KTournament: Princeton | Round: 2 | Opponent: Bridgewater Raritan AN | Judge: Jonathan Horowitz The concept and existence of the police will continue to enforce capitalism and cause your problems. This turns the aff. Whitehouse 2 (https://socialistworker.org/blog/critical-reading/2014/12/09/main-role-police-protecting-ca) Capitalism is the root cause of police brutality. I control the internal link to your impacts. Hedges 15 http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/corporate_capitalism_is_the_foundation_of_police_20150705 The alternative is to disband the police. This is a necessary first step in advancing toward an effective revolution against the bourgeoisie and the capitalist system. The perm is impossible since the aff actively harms the proletariat by using the police. It fails to achieve a revolutionist mindset, which only the alt does. WWP 16 http://aworldwithoutpolice.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/AWorldWithoutPolice_Color.pdf The role of the ballot is to vote for the better debater who methodologically deconstructs capitalism. The judge has an obligation to reject capitalism as an educator. Neoliberalism ideology forces pedagogies of maintaining the capitalist state among students. The K comes prior to any epistemic knowledge since capitalism asserts control over our systems of thought. Mclaren 2 Mclaren 08’-Peter,Critical Pedagogy Against Capitalist Schooling: Towards a Socialist Alternative. An Interview with Peter McLaren Capitalism is the root cause of all oppression, meaning it is the ultimate restrictor of voices. Thus, combatting capitalist structures logically comes prior to all other frameworks. This independently turns the aff. You pretend to solve for oppression while shifting to other forms of it. McLaren 3 McLaren, Distinguished Fellow – Critical Studies @ Chapman U and UCLA urban schooling prof, and Scatamburlo-D’Annibale, associate professor of Communication – U Windsor, ‘4 Using qualified immunity to combat ableism narrows the problem to the legal system. The AFF can’t solve unless we first deconstruct cultural norms that condone and produce police violence in the first place. | 12/5/16 |
ND Legalism KTournament: Scarsdale | Round: 6 | Opponent: Lexington KB | Judge: Parth Ahya Our identities and culture are erased in the American legal system. We have experienced systematic exclusion since we first arrived as immigrants – data is skewed so that our experiences can never be “verified.” We’ve been speaking out through anonymous poems written on walls; the Neg performance is my way of reclaiming our hidden narratives and rejecting the idealistic assumptions of the AFF that liberation strategies through courts will ever acknowledge us. Pretending courts will ever acknowledge our perspectives only reentrenches the dehumanization process marginalized groups have always experienced in the legal system. The courts themselves deny us “in” status, a result of certain bodies being viewed as “foreign” – history proves, turns the AFF. Our stories are always untold, always hidden behind the Model Minority myth, exemplified in the unseen and accepted police brutality against Asian Americans. Thus the Alt is to reject the AFF’s appeal to Western superiority as a way of liberation and instead utilize a grassroots method of combatting oppression. This means we use our narratives to form coalitions within marginalized communities to combat police brutality. Utilizing our differences as a liberation strategy means we can break down the context in which our identities have been constructed. The role of the judge is to be an educator concerned with including multiple perspectives in the debate round. The Role of the Ballot is to performatively and methodologically combat Western superiority and liberate marginalized groups And, the myth of the model minority covers up institutional criminalization of Asian Americans, means we have to first recognize the harms of this myth before taking a general approach to the problem or interracial solidarity.

It’s Not What You Think;” (April 2013); ChangeLab; (July 27th, 2016); http://www.changelabinfo.com/reports/ChangeLab_The-Importance-of-Asian-Americans.pdf - JS My performance acts against institutional hierarchies. Poetry is a way of breaking down language and promoting stories of the oppressed. Chan Segal, Corinne – Chan, Wo; “Poet Wo Chan Uses Words To Fight Oppression;” (May 11th, 2015); PBS NewsHour; Rage poet; (August 13th, 2016); http://www.pbs.org/newshour/poetry/wo-chan-poetry-activism/ - JS | 11/13/16 |

Pretending courts will ever acknowledge our perspectives only reentrenches the dehumanization process marginalized groups have always experienced in the legal system. The courts themselves deny us “in” status, a result of certain bodies being viewed as “foreign” – history proves, turns the AFF. Two more implications: A) analytic B) analytic Thus the Alt is to reject the AFF’s appeal to Western superiority as a way of liberation and instead utilize a grassroots method of combatting oppression. This means we use our narratives to form coalitions within marginalized communities to combat police brutality. Utilizing our differences as a liberation strategy means we can break down the context in which our identities have been constructed. It’s not a question of legal equality for queer communities; the only way to challenge the status quo is to place queer experiences at the forefront and form communities around them.

SO Caputi KTournament: Yale | Round: 1 | Opponent: Harvard-Westlake SK | Judge: Joe Bruner Uranium drains from our black hills I can't escape that warming up with this smallpox blanket I bet their hearts drop when they hear these drums NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY IN THE SQUO IS ASSOCIATED WITH MASCULINITY – THE ONLY WAY TO DECONSTRUCT THESE ASSOCIATIONS IS THROUGH METAPHOR. YOUR ADVOCACY OF BANNING SUCH SYMBOLS IS EXTREMELY EUROCENTRIC; NATIVE THINKERS ADVOCATE FOR RECLAIMING AS A LIBERATION STRATEGY – THIS INDEPENDENTLY TURNS THE AFF. YOU PRETEND TO ADVOCATE FOR INDIGENOUS PEOPLES WHILE CONTINUING TO ADVOCATE FOR WHITENESS. ONLY I SOLVE FOR THE ROOT CAUSE BY TAKING AN INTERSECTIONAL APPROACH AND SHIFTING AWAY FROM THE EUROCENTRIC MASCULINE NORM-- THE ALT IS TO UNGENDER THE NUCLEAR STATE BY RECLAIMING METAPHORS THROUGH POLITICS. UNGENDERING THE NUCLEAR STATE IS KEY TO SHIFTING OUR MASCULINE-CENTERED CULTURE. PROHIBITING THE PRODUCTION OF NULEAR POWER WON’T DO ANYTHING TO CHANGE THE CULTURE OF VIOENCE AND PATRIARCHY. WE NEED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THESE ASSOCIATIONS AND SYMBOLS IN POLITICS INSTEAD OF SWEEPING THEM UNDER THE RUG. THUS THE ROLE OF THE BALLOT IS TO PERFORMATIVELY AND METHODOLOGICALLY COMBATS INTERSECTIONAL OPPRESSION IN THE CONTEXT OF THE RESOLUTION. Every ballot matters – repetition is what confers power on the performative act. Voting AFF brings real voices and experiences into the debate sphere, making the performance the best way to actually access advocacy skills. NARRATIVES ARE THE ONLY WAY MINORITY VOICES CAN ENTER OPPRESSIVE SYSTEMS – THIS MAKES MY PERFORMANCE UNIQUELY KEY. AND EVEN IF I AM LOSING THE SUBSTANCE DEB8 U VOTE NEG SINCE NARRATIVES ARE RELEVANT IN ALL CONTEXTS; MY PERFORMANCE UNIQUELY ALLOWS US TO EXAMINE EXISTING OPPRESSIVE IDEOLOGIES AND CHANGE THEM. PERFORMANCES TURN DEBATE INTO A COLLECTIVE SPACE WHERE WE CAN SPECIFICALLY MAKE GENDER NORMS VISIBLE AND RUPTURE THEM – I O/W ON SPECIFICITY AND MAGNITUDE. YOUR LIBERATION STRATEGY WILL NEVER HELP THE NON-MASCULINE BODY; WOMXN WILL NEVER BE PART OF THE PROCESS UNTIL WE BECOME PART OF THE POLICYMAKING REALM. AND, MY INTERSECTIONAL APPROACH IS KEY TO REAL CHANGE. And in order for that system to work | 10/20/16 |
SO Nuclia Waste KTournament: Yale | Round: Triples | Opponent: Byram Hills JB | Judge: Isis Davis-Marks, Cameron Cohen, Daniel Shatzkin THE WAY THE AC SEPARATES THE “PURITY” OF NATURE AND WASTE IS ANALOGOUS TO HOW THE HETEROSEXIST STATUS QUO POLICES BODIES. VOTING AFF REENTRENCHES SUCH BONDARIES, TURNING THE AC. AND, THE AFF CREATES A RUSE OF SOLVENCY – WE SEE “CLEAN” LAND BUT FORGET THE REMAINDERS OF THE NUCLEAR ERA – INDEPENDENTLY TURNS THE AFF. THE ALT IS TO ENDORSE TRANSNATURAL ETHICS AND THE PERFORMANCE OF NUCLIA WASTE The triple-nippled drag... a shelf life THE PERFORMANCE OF NUCLIA WASTE REPOLITICIZES THE FALLOUT OF THE NUCLEAR ERA BY USING THE BODY AS A SITE OF POSSIBILITY – WE QUEER ENVIRONMENTAL POLITICS, MEANING WE REJECT WHITE HETEROSEXUAL MASCULINITY AND EMBRACE “DEFECTIVE” BODIES. WE MUST ACKNOWLEDGE ALL HISTORIES -- TRANSNATURAL ETHICS ACKNOWLEDGES SUBJUGATED, “DEFECTIVE” BODIES TO CHALLENGE CULTURAL NORMS THE ROTB IS TO PERFORMATIVELY AND METHODOLOGICALLY BREAK DOWN HETERONORMATIVITY IN THE CONTEXT OF THE RESOLUTION ONLY TRANSNATURAL ETHICS ACKNOWLEDGES THE RELATIONALITY BETWEEN BEINGS, WHICH IS A PREREQUISITE TO BREAKING DOWN GENDER NORMS. ANY ATTEMPTS TO ADDRESS ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS EFFECTIVELY MUST START FROM TRANSNATURAL ETHICS – OTHERWISE, WE REENTRENCH THE WASTE/NATURE BINARY. ENVIRONMENTAL AND SEXUAL POLITICS ARE INTERTWINED – ANALYZING THIS RELATIONSHIP IS KEY TO SOLVING ISSUES SUCH AS GLOBAL WARMING, MEANS THE ALT MUST COME FIRST. PERFORMANCES TURN DEBATE INTO A COLLECTIVE SPACE WHERE WE CAN SPECIFICALLY MAKE GENDER NORMS VISIBLE AND RUPTURE THEM | 10/30/16 |
SO Political Inclusion Lay NCTournament: Beltway | Round: 3 | Opponent: North Alleghany ER | Judge: Irene Gofman Korsgaard writes: Christine M. Korsgaard received her B.A. at the University of Illinois in 1974; her PhD at Harvard in 1981; and an LHD at the University of Illinois in 2004. She has held positions at Yale, the University of California at Santa Barbara, and the University of Chicago. This implies political inclusion- being included in political decision-making is the best way to account for one’s dignity Thus, my value criterion is promoting political inclusion, defined as allowing citizens of a state to partake in politics and influence political decisions within a state. Additionally prefer my criterion: Second, analytic. CONTENTION ONE IS POLLS CONTENTION TWO IS DEMOCRACY | 10/25/16 |
