COULD WE ACE LAW SCHOOL ADMISSIONS? |
48 Journal of the Legal Profession 233 (2024) |
If law school teaches one thing, it is it depends. This lesson applies just as strongly to law school admissions, where the criteria for admission may depend on any combination of complex factors (such as standardized test scores, GPA, writing samples, extracurriculars, work history, legacy status, or personal narratives, just to name a few).... |

CRITICAL IMMIGRATION LEGAL THEORY |
104 Boston University Law Review 1515 (October, 2024) |
U.S. immigration law has always been a place for Americans to enact their many prejudices. Often, it edifies norms that exclude and subordinate noncitizens due to their race, gender, or socioeconomic status. As a result, immigration law and policy create great human suffering through actions such as separating families, excluding refugees, and... |

CRITICAL TAX THEORY IN THE U.S., AUSTRALIA, AND BRAZIL: CURRENT CHALLENGES AND PERSPECTIVES FOR THE FUTURE |
31 University of Miami International and Comparative Law Review 255 (Spring, 2024) |
Tax law has never been a neutral field.

By examining the ongoing debate on critical tax theory in the United States, Australia, and Brazil, this Article... |

DECONSTRUCTING RACIAL CODE WORDS |
58 Law and Society Review 294 (June, 2024) |
Racism has become more covert in post-civil rights America. Yet, measures to combat it are hindered by inadequate general knowledge on what colorblind race talk says and does and what makes it effective. We deepen understanding of covert racism by investigating one type of discourse--racial code words, which are (1) indirect signifiers of racial... |
