REFLECTIONS ON WHITENESS AS PROPERTY |
134 Harvard Law Review Forum 1 (August, 2020) |
Chattel (Black) is the fusion of race and property--embodied as always essential and forever disposable. Hard time. 8 minutes and 46 seconds is an eternity. Centuries without a breath. Home is not a haven. You can be shot eight times in your home, in your bed. Before anything. Before you can breathe. A walk in the pandemic. Dappling sunlight... |

SALLY ENGLE MERRY: A DEEPLY APPRECIATIVE REMEMBRANCE |
54 Law and Society Review 858 (December, 2020) |
Sally Merry was a brilliant intellectual, a prolific researcher, and a generous, gentle person. Her passing is a great professional and personal loss, and I am deeply saddened. As I look back, what strikes me is how much my own trajectory of research interests and analytical development paralleled and drew on Sally's work. I do not know how much I... |

UNEQUAL LIBERTY AND A RIGHT TO EDUCATION |
43 North Carolina Central Law Review 1 (2020) |
This article lays the groundwork for a liberty-based federal constitutional right to quality public schooling. We start from the premise that Black, Brown, and poor children now and historically have never enjoyed equal liberty in the United States, and that, for these children, the public school, like the prison, functions as a site of social... |

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.

DIVERSITY AS A TRADE SECRET |

When we think of trade secrets, we often think of famous examples such as the Coca-Cola formula, Google's algorithm, or McDonald's special sauce used on the Big Mac. However, companies have increasingly made the novel argument that diversity data and strategies are protected trade secrets. This may sound like an unusual, even suspicious, legal... |

MASS INCARCERATION PARADIGM SHIFT?: CONVERGENCE IN AN AGE OF DIVERGENCE |

The peculiar harshness of modern American justice has led to a vigorous scholarly debate about the roots of mass incarceration and its divergence from humanitarian sentencing norms prevalent in other Western democracies. Even though the United States reached virtually world-record imprisonment levels between 1983 and 2010, the Supreme Court never... |
