Wolf EMPOWERING AND PROTECTING PATIENTS: LESSONS FOR PHYSICIAN-ASSISTED SUICIDE FROM THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN EXPERIENCE 82 Minnesota Law Review 1015 (April, 1998) While we were watching round her bed, She turned her eyes and looked away, She saw what we couldn't see; She saw Old Death. She saw Old Death. Coming like a falling star. But Death didn't frighten Sister Caroline; He looked to her like a welcome friend. And she whispered to us: I'm going home, And she smiled and closed her eyes. The increasing... 1998  
Susan M. Wolf FOREWORD: FACING DEATH 82 Minnesota Law Review 885 (April, 1998) Last term the U.S. Supreme Court finally considered the constitutional status of physician-assisted suicide. Confronted with decisions from the Ninth and Second Circuits finding a constitutional right, the Court granted certiorari in October 1996. That set off an explosion of debate. From the hospital bedside to the legislative hearing room and... 1998  
Kenneth B. Nunn LAW, CULTURE, AND THE MORALITY OF JUDICIAL CHOICE 28 Cumberland Law Review 581 (1997-1998) Professor Carter has presented us with an interesting and provocative talk this afternoon. I think we can all see that he is a very capable historian, one whose stellar academic reputation is very richly deserved. I, for my part, am not a historian, but nonetheless, it seems to me that there are two kinds of history. We can have a living... 1998  
Dorothy E. Roberts SOURCES OF COMMITMENT TO SOCIAL JUSTICE 4 Roger Williams University Law Review 175 (Fall 1998) Several years ago I pinned a cartoon on my wall to remind me of the possibilities and the failures in the quest for social justice.

The mother reads aloud from a book entitled Fairy Tales: Golly, let's do it!, the President told the... 1998  
Robert J. Cottrol SUBMISSION IS NOT THE ANSWER: LETHAL VIOLENCE, MICROCULTURES OF CRIMINAL VIOLENCE AND THE RIGHT TO SELF-DEFENSE 69 University of Colorado Law Review 1029 (Fall 1998) Professors Zimring and Hawkins have performed an important service. As we close out the twentieth century, it is clear that crime (and more particularly the fear of crime) has become a disturbing and, even worse, a defining feature of contemporary American culture. To an extent that is truly frightening, our politics, popular culture, and even more... 1998  
Martha Chamallas THE ARCHITECTURE OF BIAS: DEEP STRUCTURES IN TORT LAW 146 University of Pennsylvania Law Review 463 (January, 1998) Gender and race have disappeared from the face of tort law. The old doctrines that explicitly limited recovery exclusively to one gender have been either abolished or extended on a gender-neutral basis. Women as well as men may now recover for such claims as loss of spousal consortium and loss of a child's services. The disabilities that prevented... 1998  
Evan Tsen Lee , Ashutosh Bhagwat THE MCCLESKEY PUZZLE: REMEDYING PROSECUTORIAL DISCRIMINATION AGAINST BLACK VICTIMS IN CAPITAL SENTENCING 1998 Supreme Court Review 145 (1998) In this article we analyze possible legislative and judicial alternatives for redressing prosecutorial race discrimination against murder victims. There are both substantive and procedural obstacles to such remedies. The substantive obstacle is the doctrine that requires proof of intentional discrimination to make out a violation of the Equal... 1998  
Lynne Marie Kohm ; and Britney N. Brigner WOMEN AND ASSISTED SUICIDE: EXPOSING THE GENDER VULNERABILITY TO ACQUIESCENT DEATH 4 Cardozo Women's Law Journal 241 (1998) Most he's helped were female.

This epitaph was written by 39-year-old Rebecca Badger, an assisted suicide patient aided by Dr. Kevorkian. Before her death,... 1998  
Kevin L. Hopkins A GOSPEL OF LAW 30 John Marshall Law Review 1039 (Summer 1997) Derrick Bell is no stranger to civil rights activists, the Black community and the legal academy.

In Gospel Choirs: Psalms of... 1997  
Margaret M. Russell BEYOND "SELLOUTS" AND "RACE CARDS": BLACK ATTORNEYS AND THE STRAITJACKET OF LEGAL PRACTICE 95 Michigan Law Review 766 (February, 1997) For attorneys of color, the concept of representing race within the context of everyday legal practice is neither new nor voluntarily learned; at a basic level, it is what we do whenever we enter a courtroom or conference room in the predominantly white legal system of this country. The ineluctable visibility of racial minorities in the legal... 1997

Mitchell Keiter JUST SAY NO EXCUSE: THE RISE AND FALL OF THE INTOXICATION DEFENSE 87 Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology 482 (Winter 1997) On perhaps no other legal issue have courts so widely differed, or so often changed their views, as that of the legal responsibility of intoxicated offenders. The question contrasts the individual's right to avoid punishment for the unintended consequences of his acts with what then-New Hampshire Supreme Court Justice David Souter described as the... 1997  
Becky Hoover Herrnstein SHANNON FAULKNER AND THE CITADEL: THE EFFECTS OF USING LITIGATION AS AN INSTRUMENT OF SOCIAL REFORM 5 Circles: Buffalo Women's Journal of Law and Social Policy 4 (1997) In the battle against institutionalized gender discrimination, one of the most effective weapons used during the last twenty years has been the test case, whereby the cause of women as a class is advanced through legal actions instituted by individual plaintiffs. This strategy of using lengthy, expensive, high-profile cases to fight discrimination... 1997  
Douglas E. Litowitz SOME CRITICAL THOUGHTS ON CRITICAL RACE THEORY 72 Notre Dame Law Review 503 (1997) Critical Race Theory (CRT) is perhaps the fastest growing and most controversial movement in recent legal scholarship, stirring up debate in much the same manner Critical Legal Studies (CLS) did fifteen or twenty years ago. Although CRT was inspired in part by the failure of CLS to focus sufficiently on racial issues, it remains indebted in style... 1997  
David B. Wilkins STRAIGHTJACKETING PROFESSIONALISM: A COMMENT ON RUSSELL 95 Michigan Law Review 795 (February, 1997) Professor Russell's essay sounds a much needed cautionary note about the public's characterization of Christopher Darden and Johnnie Cochran both during and after the spectacle of O.J. Simpson's criminal trial. Russell cogently argues that Darden and Cochran's choices, as well as those of other black lawyers confronting similar problems, must be... 1997  
R. Richard Banks "NONDISCRIMINATORY" PERPETUATION OF RACIAL SUBORDINATION 76 Boston University Law Review 669 (October, 1996) Colorblindness is currently the fundamental principle of equal protection jurisprudence as it pertains to race. As a constitutional principle, colorblindness mandates that the state not allocate burdens or benefits on the basis of race. I contend that both the legal and political arguments for a colorblind state turn in part on its perceived... 1996  
Glenn C. Loury INDIVIDUALISM BEFORE MULTICULTURALISM 19 Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy 723 (Spring, 1996) Since the Founding, America has struggled to incorporate the descendants of African slaves into an estate of equal citizenship. This process, though well advanced, remains incomplete. How shall we make further progress? To answer this question, we must first decide who we are. Who we are sometimes depends on who is talking and to whom. In our... 1996

Robert L. Hayman, Jr. , Nancy Levit THE TALES OF WHITE FOLK: DOCTRINE, NARRATIVE, AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF RACIAL REALITY 84 California Law Review 377 (March, 1996) Ask your own soul what it would say if the next census were to report that half of black America was dead and the other half dying. Black America, some people said, was dying. And they wondered what they would hear in the souls of white folk when white America heard the news.

Derrick Bell BLACK HISTORY AND AMERICA'S FUTURE 29 Valparaiso University Law Review 1179 (Summer, 1995) A few years ago, I published a story, The Space Traders, that attempted to use an allegorical drama to illustrate what I view as the constant at risk status of black people in a society that now, as throughout the nation's history, has been willing to sacrifice black rights, black interests, and even black lives to enhance the status, further the... 1995  
Paul Schoeman EASING THE FEAR OF TOO MUCH JUSTICE: A COMPROMISE PROPOSAL TO REVISE THE RACIAL JUSTICE ACT 30 Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review 543 (Summer, 1995) More than a century has passed since the adoption of the civil rights amendments to the Constitution and three decades since the passage of the significant civil rights legislation of the 1960s. Using either legal landmark as a reference point, it is undeniable that Americans are less overtly racist than they used to be. Perhaps they are now... 1995

Rodney Thaxton, Esq. , Lida Rodriguez-Taseff PROFESSIONALISM AND LIFE IN THE TRENCHES: THE CASE OF THE PUBLIC DEFENDER 8 St. Thomas Law Review 185 (Fall, 1995) I would like to start with a little story. This actually happened during my employment at the Dade County Public Defender's office, when I was in juvenile court. There was this very bright young man who, having been arrested for stealing bicycles, was in detention. He had figured out an ingenious way to steal bicycles. He would go into the bicycle... 1995  
Chaka M. Patterson RACE AND THE DEATH PENALTY: THE TENSION BETWEEN INDIVIDUALIZED JUSTICE AND RACIALLY NEUTRAL STANDARDS 2 Texas Wesleyan Law Review 45 (Summer, 1995) This article discusses the tension between individualized justice and equality in death penalty cases, and how the defendant's race influences these decisions. Racially neutral standards ensure some notion of equality and fair treatment, but at the expense of losing individualization. This pressure is similar to the tension manifested in the... 1995

I can see why they need it. There are some places where colored folks would never, not in a thousand years, get a job. But you know what? I really am philosophically against it. I say: Let the best person get the job, period. Everybody's better off in the long run. Bessie Delany The new... 1994  
Peggy Cooper Davis CONTESTED IMAGES OF FAMILY VALUES: THE ROLE OF THE STATE 107 Harvard Law Review 1348 (April, 1994) Throughout the 1992 presidential election, the major United States political parties battled over a set of ideological issues loosely captured by the phrase family values. The parties were divided between what I will call the moral standards view and the moral independence view. In debates about family values, those who hold a moral standards... 1994

John D. Casais IGNORING THE HARM: THE SUPREME COURT, STIGMATIC INJURY, AND THE END OF SCHOOL DESEGREGATION 14 Boston College Third World Law Journal 259 (Summer, 1994) At some point, these school authorities and others like them should have achieved full compliance with this Court's decision in Brown I. But when does the transition end, and how will we know that point when we see it? As the 1990s began, some eight hundred school systems in the United States were under court supervision because school authorities... 1994

Nilsen THE CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAWYER'S RELIANCE ON BIAS AND PREJUDICE 8 Georgetown Journal of Legal Ethics 1 (Fall, 1994) Criminal defense lawyers are frequently required to utilize legal strategies that are morally repugnant because they perpetuate racial, gender, or cultural stereotypes.
