MALIGN MANIPULATIONS: CAN GOOGLE'S SHAREHOLDERS SAVE DEMOCRACY? |
54 Wake Forest Law Review 707 (Fall, 2019) |

Most of us who watched the women's movement in the 1960s hoped that there would no longer be a gender gap in the legal profession in the year 2019. We also hoped that diverse attorneys would be represented in firms in numbers equal to the population, at a minimum. While change has happened, it has not happened enough or fast enough. For example,... |

MIRROR, MIRROR: ANTI-BLACKNESS AND LAWYERING AS AN IDENTITY |
35 Harvard Blackletter Law Journal 19 (Spring, 2019) |
Anti-Blackness manifests itself in a myriad of ways, not all of which are intentional. That is what makes this work so challenging, so draining, so exhausting. Particularly if you, like me, see yourself as an impacted person first, and a lawyer second because to survive and thrive, the most important, most visceral parts of your identity - Black,... |

ORIGINALISM: PRIVILEGES v. FUNDAMENTAL VALUES |
47 Hofstra Law Review 1279 (Summer, 2019) |
Originalism has arguably fossilized our constitutional interpretation and set our recognition of existing human rights back by stingily offering us privileges we must pay for individually if we can afford them or else go without. In that way, originalism subordinates many aspects of the common good to privilege. In different ways, a gap between... |

Pagans and Christians in the City is very readable and highly entertaining. To secularists, and to those who see the current culture wars as reflecting an ideological battle between secularism and religion for influence in, and perhaps even control of, the public square, the book mounts an interesting and original challenge.

POLICE REFORM AS PREVENTATIVE MEDICINE: REFRAMING POLICE-COMMUNITY VIOLENCE AS A PUBLIC HEALTH LAW ISSUE |
22 Quinnipiac Health Law Journal 289 (2019) |
The author considers police-community violence a public health issue and evaluates the issue through the lens of public health law. Police-community violence is larger than the criminal justice system, and affects the health of the community as a whole. This concept is well documented in public health circles, but is surprisingly absent from... |

Hate speech and extremist association do real and substantial harm to individuals, groups, and our society as a whole.

Body cameras are sweeping the nation and becoming, along with the badge and gun, standard issue for police officers. These cameras are intended to ensure accountability for abusive police officers. But, if history is any guide, the videos they produce will more commonly be used to prosecute civilians than to document abuse. Further, knowing that... |
