ABOLITION AND REPARATIONS: HISTORIES OF RESISTANCE, TRANSFORMATIVE JUSTICE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY |
132 Harvard Law Review 1684 (April, 2019) |
The historical context of abolition is minimally understood, either in today's social movements or in U.S. society more broadly. For our political strategies and struggles against racism, patriarchy, and capitalism to be effective, we must deeply ground ourselves in an abolitionist vision and praxis. The combination of theory and practice takes... |

ABOLITION AS PRAXIS OF HUMAN BEING: A FOREWORD |
132 Harvard Law Review 1575 (April, 2019) |
What are the historical conditions and political imperatives of abolition as a contemporary praxis? How does abolition generate a radical critique of carceral power--of incarceration as a logic of state and social formation? What are the limitations of liberal-to-progressive demands to reform (allegedly) dysfunctional and/or scandalous systems... |

In 2044, the United States is projected to become a majority-minority country, with people of color making up more than half of the population.

Reflections on the modern labor movement tend to take a bad-news/good-news approach to the future: yes, unions are down, but a new trend suggests they are far from out. The framing is optimistic, but also right. What's new has often involved innovations in unionizing, and over the past three decades organized labor has gotten creative, taken... |

ASSESSING THE EMPIRICAL UPSIDE OF PERSONALIZED CRIMINAL PROCEDURE |
86 University of Chicago Law Review 489 (March, 2019) |
Though personalization of law is often viewed as a new idea, pockets of criminal procedure already tolerate it. Many courts have held that Miranda warnings must be tailored when read to juveniles or people with limited English proficiency; a suspect's age is necessarily part of the judicial calculus when determining whether the police's questioning... |
