question:
IS IT correct to find parallels between violent white supremacism and neo-Nazism on one hand  and the nihilist fury of ultra-militant Islam on the other? A Franco-American scholar   Scott Atran   is convinced that these deadly phenomena are two sides of the same coin. Unless people grasp that point   he  thinks  our ability to cope with either scourge may be limited.
Of course there are superficial resemblances which anyone can see. In August  when a fanatic drove his car into a group of liberal  anti-racist protesters in Charlottesville  Virginia   he  was copying a tactic that had already been used by self-styled warriors for Islam in at least four European countries.
But Mr Atran  who holds academic posts in Britain  France and America  sees deeper resemblances.  He  makes the point in an essay for Aeon   a forum for elaborate intellectual arguments  drawing on a series of  his  own academic investigations.
In  his  view  both kinds of fanaticism reflect both the failure of the liberal democratic order to inspire anyone to defend it  and the insidious attractiveness of ideologies which challenge that order. What makes these ideologies appealing is not their content but the strong collective identity they offer. They create peer groups that promise their own members such admiration that it can seem like sufficient reason to lay down oneâs life. By contrast  surveys suggest that very few people  these days  feel inclined to give up their lives for democracy.

Scott Atran


question:
''' James said at poine point . 
James had waded back into the fray over the weekend . 
INDEPENDENCE , Ohio -- LeBron James helped move the conversation forward Monday after the latest collision of sports and politics over the weekend . 
Where Gilbert was right , and where James could meet him in using his voice instead of his knee and encouraging the same from his peers , is in taking steps toward those highly sought constructive conversations and positive resolutions . 
"He does n't understand the power that he has , for being the leader of this beautiful country ," James said . 
Minutes later , though , James felt obliged to explain that kneeling during the national anthem is "not about disrespect of the flag and our military and everybody who has made this world free . 
James , the Cleveland Cavaliers ' star as well as the NBA 's top performer and perhaps its most polarizing figure , was in a good mood , engaged and willing to entertain questions about anything , from anyone , in the most notable exchange at the Cavs ' media day . 
James was savvy enough at the start of what became a 40-minute Q&A session to request that reporters clump their questions together by topic -- and there were a good half dozen meaty ones hanging over him and his team after a tumultuous offseason -- rather than skip randomly back and forth . 
James said he would lend his voice , his passion , his money and his resources to causes , particularly involving young people . 
His foundation launched a school in his hometown of Akron for at-risk students , helping 1,300 students at a cost of nearly $ 45 million , James said Monday . 
The Trump topic in particular ate up nearly half of his time on the platform , during which James shined a light and sharpened focus on an unwieldy issue that largely has been defined by and debated according to kneeling vs. standing , asserting one 's right to protest vs. respecting America and its flag , and most recently pushing back against or knuckling under to President Trump . 
Where James veered into dicey territory was when he said : "No matter whether you voted for him or not , you may have made a mistake and that 's OK , if you voted for him . 
James was asked if he expected the NFL 's controversy over players ' sideline protests to draw attention to what they feel is racial discrimination in law enforcement , up to and including brutality involving lethal force , to trickle down to the NBA when the league 's 2017-18 regular season begins Oct. 17 . 
It was n't as simple as second-guessing the 1984 Trail Blazers for drafting Sam Bowie over Michael Jordan , which James mentioned . 
"I did n't name-call ," James said . 
The state in which James was born , lives and works -- and the state in which the Cavaliers do business -- was carried by Trump in the 2016 election . 
The current president took Ohio with 51 percent of the vote , compared to 43 who voted for Hillary Clinton , who had the benefit of James ' public endorsement . 
Right there , James nudged the whole issue a bit . 
James at one point eloquently made a case for keeping politics out of sports . 
Asked how he would reconcile the idea of his neighbors , presumably many Cavaliers fans , voting that way , James doubled down .
answer:
LeBron James


question:
I first wrote about disability and policing for The Nation in 2013. Iâm not sure anything has improved since then. The people who have been working on this the longest  people like the lawyer Talila Lewis and the organization HEARD and artist and activist Leroy Moore  remain unfunded  even as organizations pour money into trainings for cops. But police donât need training to choose not to shoot folks like Sanchez. They just have to stop treating noncompliance as a justification for escalation.
Back to  Sanchez   we see similar patterns of police conduct  this time with horrible  lethal  consequences. Sara NoviÄ  who identifies as Deaf and is an assistant professor of creative writing at Stockton University  told me via e-mail that the killing emerged from a âperfect storm of communication anxiety for many d/Deaf and hard-of-hearing people.â Itâs hard to talk to strangers  especially when the stakes are high. It was also dark. She notes  âEven the most skilled deaf communicators/lipreaders struggle in the dark. It is only natural that  Sanchez  would try to get closer so  he  could see what was going on  especially because  he âd had no involvement in the traffic incident they were investigating.  He  was sitting on  his  porch minding  his  own business;  he âd done nothing wrong.â But  he  didnâtâcouldnâtâcomply with orders  so a police officer killed  him .
 Instead of training police to grant people they recognize as disabled specific rights  victims like Leibel and Sanchez  demonstrate the need for police to operate with a baseline of presumption of compliance. When significant threats emerge  as does tragically happen  officers will need to respond. But when  Sanchez  walked forward  surely the officers could have stepped back. When the autistic boy was shaking his string  the officer could have just decided not to cuff a child  even if he didnât recognize the word âstimming.â There are so many ways to improve the situation without asking for specialized training.
At least four disabled people died at the hands of police this week. One previous case of unjustified police violence came to light. Except for the brief media attention of the Sanchez and Leibel cases  thatâs a pretty normal week. Itâs unlikely anyone will be held accountable  except possibly in the situation where Leibel  a white teenager in an affluent neighborhood  was brutalized. There  the combination of powerful video  a compelling victim  widespread coverage  and a good lawyer might help. In the other cases  the multiply marginalized status of the victims plus the lethality of the encounter will make accountability difficult  if not impossible. And then next week  alas  the same types of stories will play out again  and more people will die.
answer:

Sanchez
