For weeks in the spring of 2006, television and newspapers featured spectacular images of masses of humanity lined up for miles in marches across the United States.

TIPTOEING THROUGH THE JUNKYARD: THREE APPROACHES TO THE MORAL DILEMMA OF RACIST HATE SPEECH |
21 Notre Dame Journal of Law, Ethics & Public Policy 215 (2007) |
Professor Rick Garnett uses the analogy of a yard to describe the Supreme Court's free speech jurisprudence. It goes like this: the more manicured the lawn, the more gently the government must tread if it wants to regulate. If we extend the analogy, we could say that racist hate speech is not a lawn, but a junkyard--full of sharp objects, health... |

In this article, I use state-level anti-miscegenation legislation to examine how Asian ethnic groups became categorized within the American racial system in the period between the Civil War and the civil rights movement of the 1960s. I show how the labels used to describe Asian ethnic groups at the state level reflected and were constrained by... |
