Covid-19, Lying, Mask-Less Exposures And Disability During A Pandemic, Madeleine M. Plasencia
Covid-19, Lying, Mask-Less Exposures And Disability During A Pandemic, Madeleine M. Plasencia
University of Miami Race & Social Justice Law Review
This article focuses on disability law in the context of COVID-19. In dealing with this pandemic, businesses, schools and other covered entities have to navigate and manage (at least) three different categories of people congregating. First are those who act as if there were no pandemic at all; they simply do not care if they are contagious and insist upon not complying with safety precautions, such as mask-wearing and social distancing; second are people who have medical conditions that make them especially vulnerable and at high-risk for severe symptoms associated with the infection; third are people who have already contracted …

Covid-19 And The Caregiving Crisis: The Rights Of Our Nation’S Social Safety Net And A Doorway To Reform, Leanne Fuith, Susan Trombley
University of Miami Race & Social Justice Law Review
On March 2020, the United States declared a pandemic due to the global Covid-19 virus. Across the nation and within a matter of days, workplaces, schools, childcare, and eldercare facilities shuttered. People retreated to their homes to shelter-in-place and slow the spread of the virus for what would become a much longer time than most initially anticipated.

Work is completed at all times of day and well into the night. Children …

Dignity Takings In Leviathanic Immigration Proceedings, Christopher Mendez
The Scholar: St. Mary's Law Review on Race and Social Justice
Current immigration law in the United States is rife with racially motivated biases necessitating immediate correction. Among the many problems with current law, constitutional rights are withheld from a large populace. This article reflects upon the history of immigration law in the United States, noting key decisions which have formed the status quo. This article also proposes remedies such as the cessation of infringement by government agents on the property rights that affected immigrants have on their own bodies and a modern-day amnesty reflective of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986. This article also introduces Bernadette Atuahene’s concept …
Global Intersections: Critical Race Feminist Human Rights And Inter/National Black Women, Hope Lewis
Global Intersections: Critical Race Feminist Human Rights And Inter/National Black Women, Hope Lewis
Maine Law Review
In this brief essay, I illustrate how Critical Race Feminist analysis could reconceptualize the human rights problems facing “Inter/national Black women” --in this case, Black women who migrate between the United States and Jamaica. This focus on Jamaican American migrants is very personal as well as political; I was raised by Jamaican American women. However, I have begun to focus on such women in my research not only in a search for “home” but also because there are important lessons to be learned from those who are the least visible in the legal literature. I draw the framework for a …
