Settler ColTournament: TFA state | Round: 3 | Opponent: Clements NM | Judge: Andrew Trinh AND one. Decolonization is not an “and”. It is an elsewhere. AND in turn had inherited the democratic practices of self-governing settler communities. There is no redemption for the dispossessed Indigenous body—the affirmative’s investment in liberal democracy as the avenue for progressive change perpetuates an economy of affirmation and forgetting, which is dependent on a liberal humanism which cannot recognize the Native as “human”—only the alternative’s dismantling of settler politics and fore-fronting of Indigeneity resolves the foundational antagonisms undergirding modern extermination—any permutation would replicate the logic of multi-cultural liberalism which effaces Indigenous claims to sovereignty AND America resolved, if not redressed, two cents for 100 billion dollars. The alternative is to reject the 1AC and affirm a decolonial pedagogy which situates land return as our first political priority. This debate is a question of pedagogy and imagining a world without the United States through advocating indigenous land return is a first priority. This solves the case—Colonization is the root cause of oppression and exploitation. Only a return to an indigenous politics can remedy the ills of colonialism. AND -Columbian North America and the historical development of the two in context. AND this crucial moment in history when everything appears to be headed towards collapse. | 3/9/17 |
stockTournament: Churchill | Round: 2 | Opponent: FloMou VJ | Judge: First is the observation: The word "any" in the resolution is defined as According to Merriam-Webster's This means that if I am able to prove that one or some instances of constitutionally protected speech ought to be restricted , I win the debate. The word "ought" is This means that the neg only has to advocate on the moral preferability of an action, not the implementation. The standard for today's round will be minimizing suffering. Suffering is something that is ignored in traditional settings under the guise of whiteness. The debate space is key as a starting point of discussion for meaningful change. Contention 1 is Hate Speech First is Racism HATE SPEECH IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES RACIST SPEECH CAUSES HARM TO THE TARGET RACIALLY INTIMIDATING SPEECH IS VIOLENT TOLERANCE OF HATE SPEECH PERPETUATES SOCIAL HARMS AND CREATES A WIDESPREAD COMMUNITY OF RACISM AND VIOLENCE Next is Fan Speech FAN SPEECH AT UNIVERSITY SPORTING EVENTS CAN BE VERY OFFENSIVE, INCLUDES HOMOPHOBIA AND HARRASSMENT Whiteness manifests itself in hate speech not as a passenger but as an assault. Words have the power to psychologically damage bodies, twisting their mentality into one of self-hatred. The creation of phobic objects through speech is without a doubt violent. Contention 2 is Solvency A recent report released by the National Center for Education Statistics found an overall decrease in crimes at educational institutions across the country since 2001. The overall number of crimes reported by postsecondary institutions has dropped by 34 percent, from 41,600 per year in 2001 to 27,600 per year in 2013. The report, titled Indicators of School Crime and Safety: 2015, covers higher education campuses as well as K–12 schools and includes such topics as victimization, teacher injury, bullying and cyberbullying, use of drugs and alcohol, and criminal incidents at postsecondary institutions. The report found significant decreases in instances of bullying, harassment due to sexual orientation, and violent crime at all levels of education. The number of on-campus crimes reported at postsecondary institutions in 2013 was lower than in 2001 for every category except forcible sex offenses and murder. | 1/7/17 |
