IMAGES OF THE "SOCIALLY DISINHERITED": INNER-CITY YOUTH IN RAP MUSIC |
10 Journal of Law and Family Studies 111 (2007) |
While mainstream American media consistently portray urban youth of color from a stereotypical, deficit-based, and deleterious standpoint, these images run in startling contrast to portrayals in rap music. Rap music artists, instead, consistently document the neglect and abandonment of youth of color in America's devastated inner-city landscapes.... |

IMMIGRATION LAW, RACE, AND IDENTITY |
3 Annual Review of Law and Social Science 1 (2007) |
ethnicity, naturalization, exclusion, Hurricane Katrina This review examines the scholarship at the intersection of immigration law, race, and identity.

INSTRUMENTAL RACISM: A CONVENIENT UNTRUTH |
50 Howard Law Journal 685 (Spring 2007) |
Writing about race is an uncertain enterprise. Surely, we tell ourselves, if we can simply find a better way of thinking and talking about race, we might hasten the day of redemption. Yet, after centuries of talk, and imaginative reconstructions of thought, race remains a jagged scar across our social and political landscape. Much has changed, but... |

LATINO INTER-ETHNIC EMPLOYMENT DISCRIMINATION AND THE "DIVERSITY" DEFENSE |
42 Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review 259 (Summer, 2007) |
For the great enemy of truth is very often not the lie--deliberate, contrived and dishonest--but the myth, persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. With the growing racial and ethnic diversity of the U.S. population and workforce, scholars have begun to address the ways in which coalition building across groups not only will continue to be necessary... |

LEGAL EDUCATION AND THE FORMATION OF PROFESSIONAL IDENTITY: A CRITICAL SPIRITUO-HUMANISTIC--"HUMANITY CONSCIOUSNESS"--PERSPECTIVE |
31 New York University Review of Law and Social Change 467 (2007) |
Over the past generation, sociologists, critical legal theorists, and commentators from various perspectives have increasingly focused on what might be called the identity crisis among American lawyers. This evidence of a crisis of despair among lawyers comes as no surprise to critical theorists-- also known as Crits--in legal academia. Since the... |

POST-INTENT RACISM: A NEW FRAMEWORK FOR AN OLD PROBLEM |

In this article, I present an analysis of how racism and the practice of racial inequality persist in a society whose citizenry has fully embraced an ethos of racial equality. I offer a theory of what I have termed post-intent racism relying on research in the fields of social cognition, sociology, narratology, and bounded rationality. I argue... |

What are we calling postmodernity? I'm not up to date. -Michel Foucault Postmodernism suffers from a bad rap. Commentators variously describe it as a nickname attributed to characters of shadowy reputation and as a phenomenon more kitschy than monstrous, so distressing to its critics. One even goes so far as to call postmodernism an overripe... |

Many authors in the forthcoming book Race and Wealth Disparities: A Multidisciplinary Discourse assume that law plays some role in the creation and maintenance of wealth disparities based upon race. Yet some lawyers, judges, legislators, professors, and law students would strongly dispute that view. Many legal workers, like other Americans, believe... |

Though perhaps politically salient, such slogans overlook the complex interaction between employer preferences, immigration, and legal protections. Building on sociological research, this Comment explores the reality that... |
