		<title>Janice Haaken interviewed about &#8220;Hard Knocks&#8221;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Why is keeping secret the addresses of battered women&#8217;s shelters bad for battered women? How come it does them no good to incorrectly claim that well-off wives get beaten as often as welfare girlfriends do? I&#8217;ve written here before about the wonderful work of my friend Jan Haaken &#8212; feminist/leftist theorist, filmmaker, and book author [...]]]></description>

		<title>You and me and DSK</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As faithful readers of this blog know, I&#8217;m a long time journalist who’s written extensively since the 1980s about false accusations of rape and child sexual abuse, and what to do about them. So when I woke up this morning and read the latest revelations in the Dominique Strauss-Kahn case, I was riveted.  I had [...]]]></description>

		<title>Naming the Border Patrol agent who killed the teen under the bridge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[How do you find the name of a killer from the Border Patrol when the government doesn't want you to know who he is? Easy.  Just go onto an obscure but easily accessible, and totally reliable, site on the Internet.]]></description>

		<title>Borderlanders: What Jews Know about Immigration</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“We Latinos are the Jews of the 21st century,” the sign said. It was carried by a marcher at the mammoth immigration reform rally in Los Angeles on May 1, one of several such events nationwide that are now being called harbingers of a new civil rights movement. I can relate to that slogan. As [...]]]></description>

		<title>Still life with border</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I passed through southern Arizona last week and called up Shaine Parker. He lives in the little border town Douglas, and a couple of years ago he spent several months, full time on a grant, gathering into big, plastic garbage bags what undocumented immigrants throw out on their secret treks north. Shaine said he would [...]]]></description>

		<title>Queens of Heart</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friend Jan Haaken is a woman for all seasons. Not only does she teach psychology at Portland State U. in Oregon, but she&#8217;s got a radio political talk show in that city, a psychotherapy practice informed by serious Freud and serious feminism, and a flowering career as a film producer and director. Jan was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mort Miracle</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Morten and I were at Bed, Bath &#38; Beyond last night looking for Christmas cookie tins so he can send out his homemade Norwegian baked goodies to friends and family &#8212; including Scandos, boricuas, DR&#8217;s, and Jews. While he was poking through the shelves I spied a Martha-Stewart-fancy dreydl and took it over to show [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Sex-Panic Death of Operation Santa Claus</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Santa Claus is dead! At least, the charity Santa who was born during the first Gilded Age, and whose fantasies about the poor fueled Operation Santa Claus, an enormous, Victorian-mentality welfare program run for decades from the giant Post Office at 33rd Street and 8th Avenue in New York City. Yesterday, three months after the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Under the Volcano</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just made another work trip to Mexico, starting with the bracing metropolitan capital then heading to aching little villages in the South. The US State Department has a travel advisory out for Mexico, mainly because of drug-trafficking related violence on the border. But Americans are avoiding the interior as well. One still sees German, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tchotchkobama</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This summer I was at the Carnavalet, a museum in Paris that reprises that city&#8217;s history, with emphasis on the events of 1789-1799. The coolest thing there is the collection of French Revolution tchotchkes &#8212; everything from sans culottes paper dolls to lumpily glazed plates and mugs celebrating &#8220;Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité,&#8221; as well as this [...]]]></description>
