Growing Inequality Of Opportunity In Texas: Causes And Solutions, 51 J. Marshall L. Rev. 309 (2018), Raj Salhotra
UIC Law Review
In this paper, I will discuss Texas-specific data regarding inequality, identify causes of rising inequality, and offer policy solutions to remedy the situation. Specifically, in Section II, I will offer data on inequality within Texas. In Section III, I will build a framework to conceptualize the various causes of this growing inequality. In Section IV, I will offer specific solutions to help reduce inequality. For each solution, I will offer a “dream” solution and a “politically-feasible” solution. Finally, in Section V, I will conclude the paper and relate this research back to the American Dream story.
A (Not So) Simple Question: Does Title Ix Encompass “Gender”?, 51 J. Marshall L. Rev. 225 (2018), J. Brad Reich
A (Not So) Simple Question: Does Title Ix Encompass “Gender”?, 51 J. Marshall L. Rev. 225 (2018), J. Brad Reich
UIC Law Review
This article has five sections. Section I looks at critical, operational, definitions of “sex” and “gender.” As we shall see, the terms are not synonyms. That distinction is important as section II takes us back to Title IX’s original text. That language prohibited discrimination based on sex, but it remains silent on the issue of gender. Section III then examines how Title IX evolved in terms of depth, breadth, and scope. The most recent expansion brought campus sexual violence procedures under Title IX. That development may be particularly thought provoking as sexual violence, like gender, is not part of Title …

Exposure To Police Brutality Allows For Transparency And Accountability Of Law Enforcement, 33 J. Marshall J. Info. Tech. & Privacy L. 75 (2017), Kendal Harden
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Thanks to the advancements in technology and valor of citizens, the public is finally able to understand the true severity of police brutality within the United States. The following considerations aim to address the lack of accountability and transparency of police brutality in the United States today. Part III will show how advancements in technology brings police brutality to the forefront of our nation’s issues by creating an informed society. Part IV will describe how individual states control the use of private cameras and cell phones of citizens to capture occurrences of police brutality. States do this by employing anti-wiretapping …

Rule Of Law, Activism And Equality: Growing Antisubordination Norms Within The University, 50 J. Marshall L. Rev. 249 (2017), Peter Halewood, Donna Young
UIC Law Review
This article examines this recent surge of student activism to determine how it fits within larger social movements and to evaluate how receptive courts and legislatures may be to some of the claims raised by the protests. Significant changes in civil rights laws have often been driven by significant shifts in societal perceptions of and engagement with social justice issues. And importantly, social movements have often fostered the political pressure necessary for social, legal, and political reform. There is the potential for these protests to influence courts and legislatures and shape their interpretations of legal rules in ways that recognize …
Opposing Sexual Harassment May Not Be Enough For A Retaliation Claim Under Title Vii: Why Refusing Sexual Advances Is Not Enough, 50 J. Marshall L. Rev. 1007 (2017), Simi Lorenz

The overarching theme of this paper is that the racialization of mass incarceration in America, which has been taking place since the latter part of the last century, and continues to this very day, is characterized by what I term, the “Jim Crow effect".
Following In The European Union’S Footsteps: Why The United States Should Adopt Its Own “Right To Be Forgotten” Law For Crime Victims, 32 J. Marshall J. Info. Tech. & Privacy L. 185 (2016), Erin Cooper
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
This comment aims to look at this intersection between Google search results, their lack of removal options in the United States, and the potential harm this can cause crime victims. The comment will begin by assessing Google’s method for delivering search results, and its general removal process for most non-European nations. Then, this comment will continue by looking at the European Union and its “right to be forgotten” ruling that allows people in certain circumstances to remove their personal information from the Internet, and what the United States can learn from its implementation. Moreover, we will then contrast the European …

Free, But Still Behind Bars: Reading The Illinois Post-Conviction Hearing Act To Allow Any Person Convicted Of A Crime To Raise A Claim Of Actual Innocence, 35 B.C. J. L. & Soc. Just. 1 (2015), Hugh Mundy
UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship
As the number of wrongfully convicted prisoners who are subsequently exonerated continues to rise, the importance of access to post-conviction relief also increases. Under the Illinois Post-Conviction Hearing Act, this access is restricted to petitioners who are currently imprisoned or otherwise facing a restraint on their liberty. Persons convicted of a crime who have completed their sentence are barred from pursuing post-conviction relief under the Act, regardless of the existence of exculpatory evidence that supports their innocence. Removing this procedural roadblock and interpreting the Act broadly to allow any person convicted of a crime to raise a claim of actual …

UIC Law Open Access Faculty Scholarship
As in other ethnic and racial groups, colorism plays a significant role in the social interactions in and among Asian Americans. Investigating colorism in the Asian American community provides insights into how group members construct their own racial identities in relation to the broader race-stratified society. A colorism inquiry is a necessary intervention into the existing discourse of Asian American identity construction because it complicates common understandings of the Black/White binary in ways that shed new light on inter- and intra-racial relationships. This article addresses colorism in the Asian American community, and demonstrates both how Asian Americans have been racialized …
