STANDING ALONE: STANDING UNDER THE FAIR HOUSING ACT |
60 Missouri Law Review 547 (Summer 1995) |
In 1980, one of the leading authorities on housing law noted that the Supreme Court had been especially active in the 1970's in addressing standing problems in cases with allegations of housing discrimination; indeed, he wrote that standing problems in fair housing cases seem to have grown out of all proportion to their proper place in this... |

STORIES FROM HOME: TALES FROM THE INTERSECTION OF RACE, GENDER AND SEXUAL ORIENTATION |
5 Southern California Review of Law and Women's Studies 143 (Fall 1995) |
I am very pleased to be a part of this Conference, and especially to be part of a panel that explicitly marks the fact that talking about being a lesbian -- like talking about being a woman -- must be about intersectionality. Most of you are already familiar with the recent debates within feminist thought and jurisprudence concerning gender... |

THE GREEN ALTERNATIVE TO CLASSICAL LIBERAL PROPERTY THEORY |
20 Vermont Law Review 299 (Winter, 1995) |
To every student of history, government, economics, or sociology it is a commonplace that law ... molds, while it fixes and preserves, society .... As for the property law, to say that social life creates it is a very great understatement of the intimacy of their relation. A biological mutualism, indeed an intimacy greater than that term strictly... |

The second concerns critique through the law, a critical analysis of the ways... |

At best, income and housing programs for poor people run on parallel tracks.

Seething accounts of crime-ridden, dilapidated public housing developments make good newspaper fodder; however, they also feed the uneasy public's perception that crime in some of America's public housing projects is out of control and must be controlled with drastic measures.
