?Power and Protest in New Jersey -- 50  Years After  Rebellion in Camden: Recovering Histories, Exploring Memory? 

Friday April 21, 2023
Rutgers Law School, Camden

 9am - 5pm

Campus Center Multi-Purpose Room, Camden Campus

 

?Power and Politics in New Jersey  ? 50 Years After  Rebellion in Camden,? commemorates and critically inquires into the linked histories and memories of the 1971 rebellions in Camden, New Jersey ? one against state violence in policing and one against the Vietnam War. Spring 2023 is the fifty-year anniversary of the two trials that adjudicated the outcome of the uprisings, and this event uses the anniversary to explore how Camden, New Jersey, became a site for these rebellions, what the uprisings meant at the time, and the ways in which they produced long-term effects on New Jersey and the nation.
