101 Boston University Law Review 1003 (May, 2021) |
Cannabis prohibition has created disparate harms--especially for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC)--largely through arrest disparities for possession and their downstream effects.

CHILDREN AND RACIAL INJUSTICE IN THE UNITED STATES: A SELECTIVE ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY AND CALL TO ACTION |
41 Children's Legal Rights Journal 1 (2021) |
For many reasons, 2020 became a year of reckoning for racial injustice. While a strong and deserved focus has been paid to criminal justice and police brutality, the systemic racism that underlies those institutions and many others affects more than just adults. Children are impacted by systemic racism in myriad ways that can be tragic, maddening,... |

In 1925, Congress enacted the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) as a means of quelling judicial hostility towards arbitration agreements, providing a mechanism for the enforcement of such agreements.

The federal Department of Education's (DOE) 2020 Title IX Rule fundamentally transformed the relationship between postsecondary schools (schools) and students.

70 American University Law Review 2091 (August, 2021) |
In the wake of last summer's George Floyd protests, qualified immunity is once again at the forefront of the debate.

The dual crises of the Coronavirus pandemic and Black-led uprisings catalyzed by the murder of George Floyd and many others cast a spotlight on the failure of the systems in place to support communities of color.

In March 2020, the world came to a screeching halt: people stopped going to work and children stopped going to school; grocery and drug stores displayed empty shelves where paper goods, cleaning supplies, medicines, and pantry items were once fully stocked. Big cities, like New York, felt almost post-apocalyptic: subways were empty, traffic had... |

Specifically, the Article articulates six parallel ways in which CRT and TWAIL have exposed and challenged the racial dimensions of... |

For decades, it was virtually impossible for a criminal defendant to challenge racial discrimination by the police or prosecutors. This was because in United States v.
