Entering the Trump Ice Age: Contextualizing the New Immigration Enforcement Regime |
5 Texas A&M Law Review 253 (Winter, 2018) |
During the early stages of the Trump ICE age, America seemed to be witnessing and experiencing an unparalleled era of immigration enforcement. But is it unparalleled? Did we not label Barack Obama the deporter-in-chief? Was it not George W. Bush who used the authority of the Patriot Act to round up nonimmigrants from Muslim and Arab countries,... |

45 New York University Review of Law and Social Change 82 (2021) |
For decades, immigrants have been unable to access justice in the United States. The country has consistently failed to meet its international and domestic due process obligations.

ENVISIONING REPARATIVE LEGAL PEDAGOGIES |
30 Clinical Law Review 65 (Fall, 2023) |
As numerous reports, student movements, and forms of scholarship-activism have noted, the traditional U.S. law school classroom remains a space of hierarchy, privilege, and unnamed systems of power. Particularly for students holding historically marginalized and minoritized identities, legal education remains both a remnant of and conduit for... |

Equal Protection and the Undocumented Immigrant: California's Proposition 187 |
16 Boston College Third World Law Journal 275 (Spring, 1996) |
Who among us is aboriginal? Indeed those who are aboriginal, the ones we call Native Americans, are the only ones we treat as badly as we treat new immigrants. Proposition 187, the recently passed California ballot initiative which seeks to deny all social services except emergency medical care to undocumented immigrants, has caused significant... |

Equal Protection Exceptionalism |
69 Rutgers University Law Review 563 (Winter, 2017) |
Equal protection doctrine addressed to immigrants' rights is thoroughly exceptional. It is an amalgam of super-deference, suspect class treatment, and even intermediate scrutiny, depending upon whether immigrants are present in the United States lawfully or not, and whether a state or federal classification is at issue. No other area of equal... |

Public schools have generated some of the most far-reaching cases to come before the Supreme Court. They have involved nearly every major civil right and liberty found in the Bill of Rights. The cases are often reflections of larger societal ills and anxieties, from segregation and immigration to religion and civil discourse over war. In that... |

During the 2016 Presidential election cycle, immigration policy emerged as a key campaign issue, with then-candidate Donald Trump promising a slate of restrictionist measures, including more aggressive immigration enforcement, curtailment of refugee admissions, and the construction of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. President Trump also... |

This Article examines the long shadow cast on local policing by Terry v. Ohio, tracing the impact of Terry's progeny on state legislative campaigns focused on immigration enforcement.

ERASING RACE: THE ROLE OF REPUBLICANISM AND RACISM IN FRENCH CONSTITUTIONAL JURISPRUDENCE |

In the summer of 2018, France's parliament voted to remove the word race from the country's constitution in an effort to pursue its colorblind approach to combatting racism. Traditional French secularism stresses the non-existence of race, but by refusing to acknowledge race, France also refuses to acknowledge the reality of racism within its... |

Immigrants and immigrant rights advocates knew we were in trouble when a Ku Klux Klan knight called for shooting unaccompanied children (UACs) arriving at the border and the Obama administration expedited removal proceedings of UACs and children arriving at the border with other family members.

Ethnic economies are complex.

Democracy is a technology of governance. The spread of democracy--the so called democratization--took place progressively and in waves. According to Huntington, the first wave started in 1820, the second with the end of World War II, and the third wave in 1974. Remarkably, before the end of World War II, democracy was close to extinction as only... |

Since the 1980's, immigration from outside Europe has been part of the debate surrounding European construction.

E-verify: an Exceptionalist System Embedded in the Immigration Reform Battle Between Federal and State Governments |

Abstract: The immigration debate has proven to be fertile ground for promoting exceptionalist practices, where certain groups of people are isolated from the rest of the population and regarded as a subclass. The federal electronic employment verification system, E-Verify, is a prime example of such a practice. Passed under the Procurement Act, the... |

The subject of immigration reform was notably absent from the 2008 presidential campaign.

The Baltimore Sun has aptly described Maryland as having a split personality on immigration. Maryland's responses to a broken federal immigration system have diverged both in state-wide politics and in jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction approaches. We see the divergence in Frederick County's embrace of using local law enforcement agencies to enforce... |
