REMOVING THE EVIDENCE BLINDFOLD: WHY THE MICHIGAN RULES OF CROSS-RACIAL IDENTIFICATION, OTHER-ACTS EVIDENCE, AND FLIGHT SHOULD BE RACE-CONSCIOUS |
102 University of Detroit Mercy Law Review 209 (Winter, 2025) |
Evidence rules in the United States exhibit a racialized history akin to the history of the United States's inception. The rules of evidence were written by predominantly White males, and the average experience contemplated was that of a White male. Not only was it the norm, but Whiteness also became the standard for competence in the U.S.... |

Many of the most widely discussed and influential criminal legal reform proposals of the last several years, including defund the police, no new jails, and plea strikes, are resource attacks.

One way to reduce misconduct when police have face-to-face interactions with citizens is to limit the number of such encounters.

This Article offers a novel theory of states' rights as a constitutional euphemism for a state right to racially enslave and subjugate.

Social justice is everywhere in public law. Scholars and activists are calling for racial justice, climate justice, and health justice, among other claims.

Satisfying the Fourth Amendment's requirement of individualized suspicion goes far in foreclosing claims under the... |

In the period following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks (9/11), Americans came together in a moment of national unity.
