ABOUT YOUR MASTHEAD: A PRELIMINARY INQUIRY INTO THE COMPATIBILITY OF CIVIL RIGHTS AND CIVIL LIBERTIES |
39 Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review 1 (Winter, 2004) |
One day, a lawyer dies and goes to Heaven, where he is met by St. Peter outside the Pearly Gates. What do we have here? St. Peter asks. A lawyer, he replies. Another one. We've sure been getting a lot of those lately. Well, what do you have to say for yourself? I followed all the rules, the lawyer replies, modestly, but with quiet pride. I... |

In the foreword to J. Clay Smith's Emancipation: The Making of the Black Lawyer, 1844-1944, Justice Thurgood Marshall observes that [l]ong before the Civil Rights Movement ever crystallized the plight of African Americans, Negro lawyers had identified the inequities in the legal order and begun to lay the foundation for social change.

After just fifteen minutes of deliberation, a South Carolina jury convicted Regina McKnight of homicide by child abuse, making her the first woman in the United States ever to be convicted for giving birth to a stillborn baby as a result, prosecutors had argued, of using crack cocaine when pregnant.

CHALLENGING RACIAL DISPARITIES: THE PROMISE AND PITFALLS OF THE NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND ACT'S RACE-CONSCIOUS ACCOUNTABILITY |

Thurgood Marshall prophetically stated on the eve of the Brown victory, I don't want any of you to fool yourselves . . . the fight has just begun. He knew that the fight to end segregation and the fight for equality of opportunity required far more than a Supreme Court ruling. Indeed, little changed at first, but because advocates pressed on with... |

Slavery can only be abolished by raising the character of the people who compose the nation; and that can be done only by showing them a higher one.

CRITICAL LEGAL THEORY AND THE CIVIL RIGHTS OF RACISTS |

Laws are never the voice of the powerless, the disadvantaged, or the downtrodden. Rather, laws are the creation of the most powerful and privileged elements of society, aimed at the promotion of their own interests. Since the Civil Rights Movement, lawmakers in every U.S. jurisdiction have enacted legal measures that, on their face, are aimed at... |

In the United States, efforts to end racial discrimination have generally been viewed as struggles for basic civil rights.
