This week on "Law & Disorder":
"I Dare Say: A Gerald Horne Reader" with Gerald Horne and Attorney Michael Deutsch on Repression of the Pro-Palestinian Movement.

Gerald Horne has written about the profound events of Malcolm X and MLK Jr's assassinations. His reader "I Dare Say" has just been published by OR books. Cornell West called Gerald Horne one of the great historians of our time. Horne approaches his study of history as a politically engaged scholar with an insightful and necessary partisan stance. He graduated from both the University of California law school and Columbia University where he got his PhD in history. Horne has been active as a leader of the National Conference of Black Lawyers and is the author of 40 books as far reaching as the origins of capitalism, racism, settler colonialism, boxing and jazz. He is currently a chaired professor of African-American history at the University of Houston.

Michael Deutsch is a lawyer with the famed human and civil rights Peoples Law Office in Chicago, Illinois. Michael has also served as the Legal Director for the Center for Constitutional Rights in New York City. In the course of his career, he has been a criminal defense lawyer for the rebelling prisoners at Attica, and later was a coordinator in the Attica civil lawsuit where, after two decades of litigation there was a settlement of 12 million dollars in damages. Mr. Deutsch has also represented Black Panther Party members, Puerto Rican Nationalist prisoners in the 1950s, who won an unconditional sentence commutation from President Carter in 1979; and more recently Michael represented Rasmea Odeh, the Deputy Director of the Arab-American Action Network, a former Palestinian prisoner and torture survivor.
