Lowering Of The Lowered: The ‘Spectacular’ Construction Of ‘Humiliation’ In The Indian Prevention Of Atrocities Act 1989, Ashna Singh
National Law School of India Review
The Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 is the only law in India that explicitly recognises caste-based insults or hate speech as an offence. In doing so, it captures the distinctive harm of such speech as humiliation. This article focuses on Section 3(1)(r) of the Act and argues that this recognition is significantly qualified by the “public view” requirement. Drawing on socio-political scholarship on humiliation, I show that judicial interpretation of this requirement has produced an extra-legislative condition of spectacularity. Courts tend to read caste-based humiliation through the paradigm of visible, overt, and collective atrocity, …
Child Welfare Upholds Black Family Separation While Denying Essential Constitutional Protections,

Child Welfare Upholds Black Family Separation While Denying Essential Constitutional Protections, Samantha Nichol
UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice
This note examines the refusal to expand constitutional protections to include proceedings concerning child welfare. A system that largely mirrors and works in tandem with the criminal system, which enjoys robust constitutional safeguards. Important to the analysis of the rejection of these protections is an acknowledgement that child welfare, or welfare more broadly, is a system that upholds racial power structures and a tradition of family separation. Just as the overincarceration of Black people has been acknowledged by legal scholars to be a particular badge and incident of slavery, the child welfare system should also be critiqued as a system …

The Private Prison Problem: Finding Pathways To Justice In HawaiʻI, Nathan Lee
UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice
This article considers the many obstacles in place to challenging private prison operation. Given decades of meaningful scholarship and legal activism on the “private prison problem”, it is puzzling that successful challenges to privatized incarceration remain elusive. This article seeks to introduce the lengthy and tragic history of Hawaiʻi’s use of out of state private prisons, stretching from 1995 to the present. For 30 years, people have been sent thousands of miles from home, effectively banished. Worse, Hawaiʻi has failed to take appropriate action to implement oversight or to bring individuals back home. Moreover, despite Hawaiʻi’s prominent involvement in private, …

Infinite Justice: A Critique Of Capitalism & Capital Punishment,

Albany Law School
Infinite Justice: A Critique Of Capitalism & Capital Punishment, Anthony P. Farley
UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice
Capitalism began in murder. Bodies were marked by slavery, colonialism, and genocide, white to have, and black to have not. Capitalism, “covered in dirt and dripping with blood,” was born of these three “primitive accumulations.” Slavery is death, and just like colonialism and genocide, it is a capital sentence. The law of capital punishment continues this legacy of murder and racism, as if on “rails to infinity.” This article uses insights from the critique of political economy to examine the death penalty, and the role of law generally, in maintaining racial and other inequalities. Law’s Justice enacts an endless repetition-&-forgetting …

The New Cja Form 24: Protecting Indigent Criminal Appellants’ Rights, Gabriel J. Chin, Hannah Bogen
UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice
This essay describes how the Judicial Conference of the United States elected to reform the provision of transcripts to indigent persons appealing criminal convictions in federal court. A conviction cannot be appealed without a transcript, but, by definition, indigent persons cannot afford to purchase them. A series of Supreme Court decisions held that indigent persons had to be provided transcripts without charge. However, the practical implementation of that right was blocked. In the federal system, appointed counsel had to request production of transcripts using Criminal Justice Act Form 24. That form required special permission for the court reporter to produce …

Combating The Colorblind Courtroom: Using Race-Switching To Make Racial Bias Salient, Cynthia Lee
Brooklyn Law Review
In criminal courtrooms across the country, well-meaning judges insist on running colorblind courtrooms — courtrooms in which the attorneys are not allowed to call attention to race. Many judges, including many US Supreme Court justices, believe it is best to ignore racial difference, and that noticing race will encourage racial discrimination. The problem is that colorblind courtrooms are likely to exacerbate, not ameliorate, implicit racial bias. Decades of social science research have demonstrated that making race salient helps decision makers treat similarly situated individuals of different races the same and that not calling attention to race results in decisionmakers treating …

Negligent Hiring: Recidivism And Employment With A Criminal Record, Benjamin Pyle
Northwestern University Law Review
This Article tackles a difficult legal and policy challenge— reducing the impact of criminal records on job applicants’ chances in a manner that does not spur more discrimination—by looking at how another area of law, tort liability, impacts employers’ decision-making. It uses theoretical and empirical methods to study the most common reason employers report being reluctant to hire workers with a criminal record: legal liability generated by the tort of negligent hiring. While the purpose of the tort is ostensibly to protect and make whole those harmed when an employee misbehaves in a foreseeable manner, I show that, in practice, …
