ENDORSING AFTER DEATH |
63 William and Mary Law Review 1531 (April, 2022) |
An endorsement is an act of giving one's public support to a person, product, service, or cause; accordingly, it might seem impossible for someone to make an endorsement after they have died. Nevertheless, posthumous endorsements have become commonplace in social media marketing and have been increasingly embraced by trademark and unfair... |

EXAMINING THE BAR EXAM: AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS OF RACIAL BIAS IN THE UNIFORM BAR EXAMINATION |
55 University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform 597 (Spring, 2022) |
The legal profession is among the least diverse in the United States. Given continuing issues of systemic racism, the central position that the justice system occupies in society, and the vital role that lawyers play in that system, it is incumbent upon legal professionals to identify and remedy the causes of this lack of diversity.

FIREARMS AND INITIAL AGGRESSORS |
101 North Carolina Law Review 1 (December, 2022) |
Under the initial aggressor doctrine, a person who initiates a physical confrontation loses the right to claim self-defense. Until recently, judges, legal scholars, and others have paid relatively little attention to this doctrinal limitation on the defense of self-defense. Two high-profile criminal trials in 2021 put the initial aggressor doctrine... |

FIRST AMENDMENT CONTRADICTIONS AND PATHOLOGIES IN DISCOURSE |
64 Arizona Law Review 307 (Summer, 2022) |
A robust, principled application of the First Amendment produces contradictions that undermine the very justifications for free speech protections. Strong free speech protections are justified by the idea that rational, informed deliberation leads to peaceful decision-making, yet our marketplace of ideas is crowded with lies, reductive narratives,... |

FREE SPEECH ON CAMPUS: COUNTERING THE CLIMATE OF FEAR |
20 Georgetown Journal of Law & Public Policy 975 (Special Issue 2022) |
Similar to the entertainment industry in the time of the blacklist, a climate of fear has descended on the nation's universities and colleges. It is the fear of being punished, not for what one does, but for what one says. Today, students and faculty frequently refrain from expressing unpopular or offensive positions--often conservative,... |

FROM SCHOOLHOUSE GATE TO LOCKER ROOM DOOR: THE STUDENT ATHLETE'S CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO PROTEST AT A PUBLIC UNIVERSITY DOES NOT STOP AT THE HARDWOOD |
73 Hastings Law Journal 1593 (July, 2022) |
The Supreme Court has not faced a case involving the public university student athlete's right to protest during game day events, such as during the pre-game warm up, the national anthem, and game play itself. Protests stemming from the arena of sports is nothing new, and athletes are supported by a long and rich history of influential professional... |

This Article lays the groundwork for a novel theory giving citizens pride of place in constitutional interpretation--as voters and jurors, deliberators and disobedients, and more. My account adopts different answers to two basic questions that divide it from other prevailing theories: first, that citizens, rather than judges, shoulder primary... |

GEORGE FLOYD, GENERAL WARRANTS, AND CELL-SITE SIMULATORS |
59 American Criminal Law Review 149 (Winter, 2022) |
The Fourth Amendment was enacted to prevent the government from utilizing general warrants. Instead, the government must obtain a warrant that is based on the specificity or particularity of the person, place, or thing to be searched. This approach evolved from a property-centric approach to safeguarding Fourth Amendment rights to one that is based... |

Throughout its history, the United States has struggled with movements that aim to silence others through state or private action. These periods have been pendulous, with acute suppression followed by relative tolerance for free speech. This boom-or-bust pattern for free speech may well continue. However, the United States is arguably living... |

Systemic racism in policing allows police officers, in particular white men, to continue to perpetuate the violent killings of Black people. This violence is not accidental.

John Lewis's civil rights activism in the 1960s often obscures the fact that he won elective office as a racially moderate politician. Scholars have long noted the efficacy of using deracialized, or racially transcendent, campaign strategies to get elected, despite normative concerns. These strategies were critical to electing Black governors,... |
