WARRANT NULLIFICATION |
124 West Virginia Law Review 479 (Winter, 2022) |
Police officers execute thousands of search warrants in the United States every year, often looking for drugs in people's homes. Many search warrants are executed by militarized dynamic entry teams who violently conduct raids late at night with little or no warning, guns drawn. These raids have killed and injured hundreds of people... |

WE CAN'T BREATHE: REIMAGINING EQUAL PROTECTION AS A COLLECTIVE RIGHT |
72 Case Western Reserve Law Review 785 (Spring, 2022) |
George Floyd couldn't breathe. We can't either. We live in fear. Fear of walking outside. Wearing a hoodie. Going for a jog. Sleeping in our own home. Existing. Every day, a new hashtag. Every hour, a new injustice. Every second, more pain. We don't deserve to live like this--and we continue to fight until white supremacy no longer permeates every... |

WEAPONIZING FEAR |
132 Yale Law Journal Forum 163 (10/17/2022) |
abstract. In a letter dated February 22, 2022, Texas Governor Greg Abbott directed the commissioner of the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services to conduct a prompt and thorough investigation of any reported instances of what he called abusive sex change procedures. Many condemned the weaponizing of the child welfare system against... |

WHAT IS PUBLIC SAFETY? |
102 Boston University Law Review 725 (April, 2022) |
For hundreds of years, political leaders and thinkers have deemed public safety the first duty of government. But they have defined public safety rather narrowly, primarily in terms of the protection function--protecting individuals from violent harm to person or property from third parties (and also from natural elements). As the first duty, the... |

WHAT WE ASK OF LAW |
132 Yale Law Journal 487 (November, 2022) |
A minimal, reasonably uncontroversial demand of any legal system is that it should stabilize a polity against both the chance hazards of ordinary violence and sudden blows of extraordinary, destabilizing misfortune. Law in the contemporary United States, though, has not so far abated the lethal toll of violent crime, the serial mass shootings of... |

WHITE SUPREMACY, POLICE BRUTALITY, AND FAMILY SEPARATION: PREVENTING CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY WITHIN THE UNITED STATES |
2022 University of Illinois Law Review 1475 (2022) |
The United States tends to treat crimes against humanity as a danger that exists only in authoritarian or war-torn states, but in fact, there is a real risk of crimes against humanity occurring within the United States. This risk is illustrated by well-known events such as systemic police brutality against Black Americans, the federal family... |

WHITE SUPREMACY'S POLICE SIEGE ON THE UNITED STATES CAPITOL |
87 Brooklyn Law Review 557 (Winter, 2022) |
The attack that took place at the nation's Capitol on January 6, 2021, has proven that white supremacy and far-right extremism in policing are some of our country's most dangerous problems. I have previously written about the crisis of white supremacists in law enforcement, and I am not alone. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has issued... |

WHITE VIGILANTISM AND THE RACISM OF RACE-NEUTRALITY |
99 Denver Law Review 763 (Summer, 2022) |
Race-neutrality has long been touted in American law as central to promoting racial equality while guarding against race-based discrimination. And yet the legal doctrine of race-neutrality has perversely operated to shield claims of racial discrimination from judicial review while protecting discriminators from liability and punishment. This... |

WHITENESS AS CONTRACT |
78 Washington and Lee Law Review 1803 (2022) |
2020 forced scholars, policymakers, and activists alike to grapple with the impact of twin pandemics--the COVID-19 pandemic, which has devastated Black and Indigenous communities, and the scourge of structural and physical state violence against those same communities--on American society. As atrocious acts of anti-Black violence and harassment... |

WHO CAN PROTECT BLACK PROTEST? |
170 University of Pennsylvania Law Review Online 39 (2022) |
Police violence both as the cause of and response to the racial justice protests following George Floyd's murder called fresh attention to the need for legal remedies to hold police officers accountable. In addition to the well-publicized issue of qualified immunity, the differential regimes for asserting civil rights claims against state and... |

WITNESSING VIOLENCE, WITNESSING AS VIOLENCE: POLICE TORTURE AND POWER IN TWENTIETH-CENTURY INDIA |
47 Law and Social Inquiry 946 (August, 2022) |
Police custodial violence was a normal occurrence in the southern Indian province of Madras through the twentieth century, across the colonial and postcolonial periods alike. While governmental authorities attributed torture to individual deviants and the press attributed the practice to a lack of government will in punishing offenders, this... |

XENOPHOBIC CONSPIRACY THEORIES AND THE LONG ROOTS OF JANUARY SIXTH |
85 Law and Contemporary Problems 19 (2022) |
On January 6, 2021, insurrectionists stormed the U.S. Capitol. The insurrectionists supported President Donald Trump's false claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen through election fraud. One of the central claims underlying what white nationalists called the Stop the Steal campaign was that foreign voting companies manipulated the... |

YOUTH ALWAYS MATTERS: REPLACING EIGHTH AMENDMENT PSEUDOSCIENCE WITH AN AGE-BASED BAN ON JUVENILE LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE |
131 Yale Law Journal 1936 (April, 2022) |
The Supreme Court has placed restrictions on courts' ability to impose life-with-out-parole sentences on juveniles. Most recently, Jones v. Mississippi underscored how existing Eighth Amendment protections fail to extend categorical protection to all juveniles. Tracing the history of intrachildhood classifications, this Note argues that Jones's... |
