82 Montana Law Review 105 (Winter, 2021) |
Black Lives Matter signs pepper our rural, middle class neighborhood. Like many of the neighborhoods in my town, there are few Black Americans living nearby. The signs are a symbol of the desire to do something, finally, about systemic racism. There are other subtle shifts occurring as well. More books on racism top bestsellers lists and more ads... |

BECOMING AN ANTIRACIST LEGAL ORGANIZATION |
40 Legal Management 6 (June, 2021) |
The more aware I become of just how deeply rooted racism is in our personal and professional lives, the more I begin to wonder how much of an effect any one person, group or organization can have in dismantling this ugly situation.

134 Harvard Law Review 1521 (February, 2021) |
Because of implicit biases, information about the victims of violence--such as their criminal records, physical appearances, and lifestyles--can be exploited in an attempt to justify the harm that was inflicted upon them.

BLACKNESS AND EXISTENTIAL CRIMES IN THE MODERN RACIAL STATE |
53 Connecticut Law Review 619 (September, 2021) |
This Essay presents the concept of existential crime. It argues that our notion of crime has conflated acts that challenge the racial premise on which a state is founded with acts that breach what Karim Murji (2009) calls norms of propriety.

BRINGING RACIAL JUSTICE TO IMMIGRATION LAW |
116 Northwestern University Law Review Online 1 (May 13, 2021) |

Although modern immigration laws no longer expressly mention race, their enforcement unmistakably impacts people of color from the developing world. Specifically, the laws, as enacted and... |

In Rucho v. Common Cause, the Supreme Court held that challenges to partisan gerrymanders presented a nonjusticiable political question.

Children are impacted by systemic racism in myriad ways that can be tragic, maddening,... |

Armstrong, 517 U.S. 456 (1996), the Supreme Court set an insurmountable standard for obtaining discovery in support of a selective prosecution claim. Equating the roles of... |
