Just as the 85,000-ton cruise ships Disney Magic and Disney Wonder are forced by science to obey the same laws of buoyancy as Disneyland's significantly smaller Jungle Cruise ships, so is a corporate board's extraordinary decision to award a $140 million severance package governed by the same corporate law principles as its everyday decision to... |

FREEDOM FROM SUBORDINATION: RACE, RELIGION, AND THE STRUGGLE FOR SACRAMENT |
15 Temple Political & Civil Rights Law Review 33 (Fall 2005) |
Legal scholars often distinguish tribal Indian law from American law, insisting that tribal law is inherently religious whereas American law is completely secular. However, when looking at the history of peyote law in the United States, it becomes apparent that this distinction between tribal law and American jurisprudence is a fabrication. The... |

On this fiftieth anniversary of Brown v.

IMPLICATIONS OF A UNIRACIAL WORLDVIEW: RACE AND RIGHTS IN A NEW ERA |

Race is a human puzzle. This work analyzes how the puzzle fits together, preliminarily suggests a way to rethink what we mean by race, and briefly explores some implications of re-visioning race. As we enter a new millennium, the prophetic words of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. remind us that rethinking race is not optional. It is imperative: (I)f we... |

Towards the end of my 2L year, I mentioned to a friend of mine that I was planning to turn a paper I wrote for a class into an article for publication.

As ink strikes letters to this page, young Americans--mostly men--lurk in the streets of towns with names like Mosul and Fallujah in a place called Iraq, guns nervously poised to deliver death. Five years ago, neither the young coalition soldiers scanning the apartments and school buildings in desert fatigues, nor the insurgents who would do them... |

58 Rutgers Law Review 45 (Fall 2005) |
This Article introduces a critique of the ways in which the state's exercise of authority to govern the disposition of the dead can disrupt fundamental personhood interests of the deceased and his or her kin in burying the dead and assigning identity in death.

As a child, I was accustomed to being the only South Asian in my class. I automatically identified with other non-Whites in my history books and at my school, knowing that in the past, I would have been considered one of the persecuted savages, and in the present, they were different, as was I. Later, as a teenager, I found that the one... |

34 Journal of Law and Education 493 (July, 2005) |
Last year marked the 50th Anniversary of Brown v. Board of Education, the landmark Supreme Court ruling that legally ended segregated public schooling in the United States. Unlike the fanfare surrounding the 200th anniversary of the Constitution in 1987, this anniversary slipped by almost unnoticed by the U.S. public; perhaps that is because there... |

The Supreme Court's decision in Plessy v. Ferguson (1896) is infamous for its doctrine of separate but equal, which gave constitutional legitimacy to Jim Crow segregation laws.
