EVIDENCE WITHOUT RULES |
94 Notre Dame Law Review 867 (December, 2018) |
Much of what we tell ourselves about the Rules of Evidence--that they serve as an all-seeing gatekeeper, checking evidence for relevance and trustworthiness, screening it for unfair prejudice--is simply wrong. In courtrooms every day, fact finders rely on evidence--for example, a style of dress, the presence of family members in the gallery, and... |

EXCAVATING RACE-BASED DISADVANTAGE AMONG CLASS-PRIVILEGED PEOPLE OF COLOR |
53 Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review 65 (Winter, 2018) |
The aim of this article is to begin to theorize the fraught space within which class-privileged racial minorities exist--the disadvantage within their privilege. The article posits that the invisibility of the racial subordination of wealthier people of color (that is, their marginalization on account of their race) is fertile soil for the... |

Martin Luther King Jr. and Derrick Bell both urged all Americans, white as well as nonwhite, to speak respectfully and, if possible, lovingly to and about each other.

Addressing race in the legal classroom has long been a potentially disruptive, even professionally hazardous, act. Despite multiple innovations in the legal curriculum, the decades-long discussion regarding racial inclusion in law schools has led us to the same, largely race-avoidant, place. Now, as we navigate a tumultuous period in which issues... |

RACIAL CHARACTER EVIDENCE IN POLICE KILLING CASES |
2018 Wisconsin Law Review 369 (2018) |
The United States is facing a twofold crisis: police killings of people of color and unaccountability for these killings in the criminal justice system. In many instances, the officers' use of deadly force is captured on video and often appears clearly unjustified, but grand and petit juries still fail to indict and convict, leaving many baffled.... |
