STRICT SCRUTINY & THE BLACK BODY |
69 UCLA Law Review 2 (March, 2022) |
When people in law think about strict scrutiny, often they are also thinking about equal protection law's treatment of race. For more than four decades, scholars have vigorously challenged that legal regime. Yet none of that contestation has interrogated the social manifestation of strict scrutiny. This Article does that work. Its central claim is... |
