Common law waste doctrine is often overlooked as antiquated and irrelevant. At best, waste doctrine is occasionally examined as a lens through which to evaluate evolutions in modern property theory. We argue here that waste doctrine is more than just a historical artifact. Rather, the principle embedded in waste doctrine underpins a great deal of... |

Casting a ballot should be easy, but voter suppression continues to be an obstacle for many Black voters.

YOGA AS PROPERTY: A CENTURY OF UNITED STATES YOGA COPYRIGHTS, 1937-2021 |
99 Denver Law Review 725 (Summer, 2022) |
Public debate on yoga as property fixates on whether yoga should be owned, asking if yoga can be Indian property. Framed as such, the public discourse obscures a century-long, ravenous arc of yoga ownership in the United States, accumulated by whiteness, beginning in the early twentieth century.
