International Law-Seizure Of Foreign Vessels On The High Seas, David D. Ring S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

After World War I, the Allied Powers under Article XXII of the Covenant of the League of Nations designated Great Britain mandatary of Palestine, providing inter alia that, as far as possible without prejudice to the rights of the then residents of Palestine, steps were to be taken to facilitate Jewish immigration. A High Commissioner for Palestine was appointed, who, by the authority vested in him under the mandate, promulgated a general ordinance regulating immigration. It was provided therein that any British government ship might board any vessel to detain and examine persons reasonably believed to be seeking to enter …

Constitutional Law--Anti-Lynching Legislation, William B. Harvey S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

Despite progress in recent years toward the elimination of lynching, the demand for adequate federal legislation to cope with the problem is unabated. For almost three decades Congress has considered a succession of anti-lynching bills, most of which have been favorably reported by committees. None has become law. Legislators and others opposing the enactment of a federal anti-lynching act have placed primary reliance on an asserted lack of constitutionality. It is argued that lynching is merely local crime within the scope of the power and responsibility of the states to enforce their own criminal law. The purpose of this comment …

The Concept Of "Denial Of Justice" In Latin America, J. Irizarry Y Puente

Michigan Law Review

Much of the credit for the present state of development of the concept of "denial of justice" must go to Latin America. Step by step the efforts of her statesmen, lawmakers and publicists in the spheres of diplomacy, legislation and doctrine, have given the concept a more definite juridical form, and outlined more clearly its frontiers of legitimate action. The concept, far from being now the occasion for diplomatic coercion which it formerly was, is narrowed down to a judicial connotation; and, in this sense, it means that justice has not been done where it should have been.

Its evolution …

An Appeal In Favor Of That Class Of Americans Called Africans, Lydia Maria Child, Paul Royster (Editor)

Electronic Texts in American Studies

The roots of white supremacy lie in the institution of negro slavery. From the 15th through the 19th century, white Europeans trafficked in abducted and enslaved Africans and justified the practice with excuses that seemed somehow to reconcile the injustice with their professed Christianity. The United States was neither the first nor the last nation to abolish slavery, but its proclaimed principles of freedom and equality were made ironic by the nation’s reluctance to extend recognition to all Americans.

“Americans” is what Mrs. Child calls those fellow countrymen of African ancestry; citizenship and equality are what she proposed beyond simple …
