Breathing Room For The Right Of Assembly, Tabatha Abu El-Haj
Breathing Room For The Right Of Assembly, Tabatha Abu El-Haj
William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice
This Article explores the legal and political fault lines that the wave of protests highlighting police violence and systemic racism in the summer of 2020 reveal.

William & Mary Journal of Race, Gender, and Social Justice
While neuroscience continues to make it clearer that mental processes, effects, disorders, and states can be described through physical observation, the metaphysical notion of mind-body dualism still pervades the U.S. legal system. In this Article, I discuss many areas where mind-body dualism holds fast, and others where mind-body dualism has already been explicitly or impliedly rejected.
