HOSTILE VOTING ENVIRONMENTS: CONCEPTUALIZING RACE-CLASS DISPARITIES IN POLLING PLACES AS DISENFRANCHISEMENT |
27 University of Pennsylvania Journal of Constitutional Law 218 (March, 2025) |
Research in the social sciences has long indicated that racial minorities and class-disadvantaged voters wait longer to vote, receive more confusing answers from poll workers, and vote at locations with worse lighting, signage, parking, and facilities for the disabled. With voting environments as they are, people can vote, but voting will be more... |

HUMANITY, RACE, AND INDIGENEITY IN CRIMINAL SENTENCING: SOCIAL CHANGE IN AMERICA, CANADA, EUROPE, AUSTRALIA, AND NEW ZEALAND |
48 New York University Review of Law and Social Change 188 (2025) |
The role of systemic racism in criminal justice is a growing matter of debate in modern Western democracies. The United States has garnered the most attention given the salience of its racial issues and the disproportionate attention that American society garners around the world. This has obscured major developments in Canadian society with great... |

Don't get me wrong--I think people should take care of themselves. They should eat well, exercise regularly, and get a good night's sleep. They should spend time with friends and family. They should have hobbies and interests. With any luck, they should find true love. But in the past decade or two, and especially since the COVID pandemic, there... |

INHERITED HEALTH: A TARGETED MEDICAID REFORM TO REDRESS GENERATIONAL HEALTH DISPARITIES |

Health, like wealth, can be inherited. We pass down health knowledge, health behaviors, and health itself between generations, just as we do wealth. What happens when a lack of health is passed between generations, and how can an intergenerational legacy of ill health be interrupted?

INITIATING REMEDIES FOR OUR UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND UNLAWFUL RESIDENTIAL SEGREGATION |
57 Connecticut Law Review 1027 (May, 2025) |
In 1866, Congress passed a Civil Rights Act outlawing burdens on freed slaves not also imposed on free whites, reasoning that racial discrimination--both public and private--undermined effective emancipation. However, subsequent Supreme Court jurisprudence did not honor or uphold this law and its progeny. Had it done so, the hard-fought promise of... |

The U.S. penal apparatus is a bundle of wildly divergent practices. Police in some cities use more force than others.

Belonging is a fundamental need, like food or water. Hundreds of social psychology studies find that people who are ostracized (excluded, rejected, or ignored) experience severe pain and suffering. Ostracism threatens basic needs, triggers the same neurocognitive processing system as physical pain, and impairs functioning. Furthermore, ostracized... |
