DERRICK BELL AND THE EMERGENCE OF LATCRIT THEORY |
36 Seattle University Law Review xxix (Spring, 2013) |

OF MICE AND MEN, FAIRY TALES, AND LEGENDS: A REACTIONARY ETHICAL PROPOSAL TO STORYTELLING AND THE BRISEÑO FACTORS |

In reviewing Texas' adherence to the Briseño factors--non-scientific standards inspired by the character Lennie in Of Mice and Men and not by actual science or clinical protocol --it is evident that the use of storytelling can have a result that even Critical Race theorists would not desire. Critical Race theorists have traditionally been against... |

The framers of the U.S. Constitution wrote the Elections Clause to address concerns that the states would fail to call congressional elections and weaken the already fragile new government.
