Truly I tell you, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me. --Matthew 25:45 America is fortunate to have a long running and relatively stable democratic government, due in large part to the robustness of many of its democratic institutions.

96 New York University Law Review 1214 (October, 2021) |
In this piece, I examine the political branding of Asian immigrants by comparing the rhetoric used in the political platforms of the Democratic and Republican parties from 1876 to 1924 to the language deployed in U.S. Supreme Court opinions during the same time period.

U.S. law, of course, drew many lines based on race from the earliest days of slavery and colonialism.
