...Gregory Stanton, a professor of human rights at Virginia's University of Mary Washington, sees in Iraq the same troubling signs of preparation and execution of genocidal aims that he saw in the 1990s in Rwanda when he worked at the State Department. Sunni and Shiite militias are "trying to polarize the country, they're systematically trying to assassinate moderates, and they're trying to divide the population into homogenous religious sectors," Stanton says. All of those undertakings, he says, are "characteristics of genocide," and his organization, Genocide Watch, is preparing to declare the country in a "genocide emergency...
...Whatever.’” “The key was to have a conversation with the justices instead of doing a formal, stiff presentation,” he added. Joining Katyal at yesterday’s event was the Kennedy School’s Stanton Professor of the First Amendment Frederick Schauer, who spoke about the judiciary’s agenda relative to that of the public—the topic of the 60-page foreword he wrote for the current issue of the Law Review.

Stanton—who had serendipitously been working on a student docent program at the museums—was immediately excited to get involved. Together, those involved created the “Nights” Series at Harvard University...
...lack of emotions, and unnaturally waxy skin. James Gandolfini truly disappoints as politician Tiny Duffy, simply adding a weak Southern accent to his alter ego of Tony Soprano. Kate Winslet’s awkward bangs and dye-job are more memorable than her portrayal of pseudo-femme fatale Anne Stanton; as her supposedly honorable brother, Mark Ruffalo’s limp presence seems equally superfluous to the central plot. BOTTOM LINE: The filmmakers do an excellent job of editing down the epic tract into a manageable two hours, while still adding a richness of visual detail on Southern life...
