NAME AND SHAME: HOW INTERNATIONAL PRESSURE ALLOWS CIVIL RIGHTS ACTIVISTS TO INCORPORATE HUMAN RIGHTS NORMS INTO AMERICAN JURISPRUDENCE |
17 Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy Sidebar 303 (4/8/2022) |
The United States has ratified international human rights treaties sparingly. Where it has ratified, it has provided such a large number of reservations that the treaties' domestic effects are effectively nullified. Even though international human rights law has not been directly incorporated into American jurisprudence, however, international... |

NO "BOX TO BE CHECKED": ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE IN MODERN LEGAL PRACTICE |
30 New York University Environmental Law Journal 157 (2022) |
For nearly thirty years, environmental justice has been part of our civic conversation and included in the mission of federal agencies.

NO TURNING BACK: A PROGRESSIVE APPLICATION OF STAND YOUR GROUND LAWS TO REMOVE THE DUTY TO RETREAT FOR WOMEN WHO KILL ABUSERS OUT OF SELF-DEFENSE |
37 Wisconsin Journal of Law, Gender & Society 215 (Fall, 2022) |
Stand Your Ground laws gained mainstream attention after George Zimmerman shot and killed Trayvon Martin, a Black teenager, in Florida. However, Stand Your Ground laws are neither new nor unique to Florida or other conservative states. Thirty-nine states remove the duty to retreat from self-defense law in some way through statute, case law, or jury... |

OBSTRUCTION OF JOURNALISM |
99 Denver Law Review 407 (Spring, 2022) |
Identifying oneself as press--with a badge on a lanyard, label on a helmet, or sign on a car--used to be a near-grant of immunity. It meant safer passage through dangerous terrain. But today, being recognizable as a journalist may be more likely to make one a target. Physical assaults against journalists in the United States increased nearly 1,400%... |

ON TERRORISTS AND FREEDOM FIGHTERS |
136 Harvard Law Review Forum 1 (10/20/2022) |
The Russian invasion of Ukraine in late March of 2022 ushered in a new chapter of war on the European continent. For a Russian regime intent on actualizing its imperial vison and an accosted Ukranian community fighting in the name of self-determination, this war is far more than a theater of war. Ukraine evolved into real-time drama for racial... |

PAYING FOR A CLEAN RECORD |
112 Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology 439 (Summer, 2022) |
Prosecutors and courts often charge a premium for the ability to avoid or erase a criminal conviction. Defendants with means, who tend to be predominantly White, can often pay for a clean record. But the indigent who are unable to pay, and are disproportionately Black and Brown, are saddled with the stigma of a criminal record. Diversion and... |

PEERING INTO PASSIVE ELECTIONEERING: PRESERVING THE SANCTITY OF OUR POLLING PLACES |
58 Idaho Law Review 270 (2022) |
A century ago, our legislators took action to condemn voter intimidation, fraud, and violence occurring on Election Day. The concept of a neutral zone in polling places was implemented to protect the democratic values enshrined in our free and fair elections. In modern times, this policy interest is preserved in state statutes prohibiting... |

History, however, gives little support to the view that time automatically erodes racial aversions, fears, and animosities, or even tames the overt behavior based on such feelings. There has been no one-way movement toward improved group relations, but instead many detours, oscillations, and even severe backward movements. -Thomas Sowell Plessy... |

PRESIDENTIAL ACCOUNTABILITY AND THE RULE OF LAW: CAN THE PRESIDENT CLAIM IMMUNITY IF HE SHOOTS SOMEONE ON FIFTH AVENUE? |
24 University of Pennsylvania Journal of Constitutional Law 93 (February, 2022) |
Can a sitting President be indicted while in office? This critical constitutional question has never been directly answered by any court or legislative body. The prevailing wisdom, however, is that, though he may be investigated, a sitting President is immune from actual prosecution. The concept of presidential immunity has hastened the erosion of... |
