Creative industries are industries focused on the creation and exploitation of intellectual propert, including art, fashion design, and related creative services, such as advertisement and sales. During a trip to Burkina Faso in \Nest Africa, Keri Fosse was taught by an African woman how to wrap newborns with fabric in a manner that creates a strong bond and frees the mother's hands for other tasks. Burkina Faso has a craft culture and is known for its woven cotton and the textile art of Bogolan. Bogolan is a technique original to Mali and involves the tradition of dyeing threads with bright …


The Culture Police: Manning The Barricades Of Allowable Art And Culture, Ramy Aly 2021 American University in Cairo

The Culture Police: Manning The Barricades Of Allowable Art And Culture, Ramy Aly

Faculty Book Chapters

In this chapter I look at the history and ontology of censorship in Egypt from the Monarchical era to the present. I focus on the post-1952 era and how a tutelary state culture has been deployed as part of a broader cultural militarism. The chapter also covers the legislative architecture that has ensured a stranglehold on the part of syndicates and the creation of a broad range of crimes associated with art and culture production and exhibition.


Stereotypes, Sexism And Superhuman Faculty, Teneille R. Brown 2021 S.J. Quinney College of Law, University of Utah

Stereotypes, Sexism And Superhuman Faculty, Teneille R. Brown

Utah Law Faculty Scholarship

This symposium article explores how law professors with caretaking responsibilities struggled so greatly during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. Because legal academia prioritizes masculine ideals of competence over warmth, faculty were expected to suppress their emotions and mental health needs in order to maintain the appearance of competence. While students were allowed to be seen as vulnerable individuals needing accommodations, we did not extend this same compassion to our faculty colleagues. To explain why the treatment was so disparate, I incorporated existing research on the stereotype content model (SCM) and psychological theories of dehumanization. These theories help to …

The Wolf We Feed: Democracy, Caste, And Legitimacy, Benjamin Justice, Tracey L. Meares

Michigan Law Review Online

Procedure is central to American public legal discourse. From the soaring rhetoric of the Declaration of Independence to the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, the American legal tradition rests on the principle that law must be both derived and applied according to fair process. Consider that in the 2020 election the Trump Administration resorted to fervent and false allegations of widespread voter fraud—that the election process was fundamentally unfair—in order to weaponize Republican voters’ ostensible commitments to fairness against what was, objectively, one of the least procedurally unfair elections in history. Yet the four-year period of the Trump …


Meek Mill's Trauma: Brutal Policing As An Adverse Childhood Experience, Todd J. Clark, Caleb G. Conrad, andre d.p. cummings, Amy D. Johnson 2021 Little Rock William H. Bowen School of Law

Meek Mill's Trauma: Brutal Policing As An Adverse Childhood Experience, Todd J. Clark, Caleb G. Conrad, Andre D.P. Cummings, Amy D. Johnson

St. Thomas Law Review

Meek Mill, in his intimate autobiographical tracks of Trauma, Oodles O’Noodles Babies, and Otherside of America, describes experiencing not just several instances of childhood trauma as identified by the CDC-Kaiser Permanente study, but as a teenager, he suffered additional cruel trauma at the hands of U.S. police and a criminal justice system that wrongly imprisoned and unfairly positioned him in a revolving door between probation and prison. The data tells us that the trauma Meek experienced as a child and teenager statistically predicts a poorer life expectancy for him than those individuals that experienced no trauma or little trauma as …


From Tiktok To Racial Violence: Anti-Blackness In The Gendered Sphere, Dr. Donald F. Tibbs 2021 St. Thomas University College of Law

From Tiktok To Racial Violence: Anti-Blackness In The Gendered Sphere, Dr. Donald F. Tibbs

St. Thomas Law Review

This article proceeds in four sections. Section I begins with a brief historiography of the danger of White gendered racism to Black life; specifically, when White women falsely accuse Black men of crimes. The seriousness of this provocative history is undisputed. It has been captured as a movie adaptation of a famous novel, well documented in academic scholarship, sang in negro spiritual songs, described in countless media stories, and documented by the federal government when the accusations involved brutal retaliation-style killings. After discussing the historical underpinnings of gendered racism, Section II uses a case study of a White woman, named …

Parole In Virginia, 2021: The Final Report Of The Washington And Lee Law Parole Representation Project, David I. Bruck, Bernadette M. Donovan, Matthew L. Engle

Scholarly Articles

The Virginia Capital Case Clearinghouse (“VC3”) was a yearlong ten-credit legal clinic at Washington and Lee University School of Law. Professor William Geimer created VC3 to assist in the defense of Virginia defendants who were facing the death penalty in the state’s trial courts. In 2017, recognizing both the waning need for capital defense support in Virginia and the almost total lack of legal representation for parole-eligible Virginia prisoners, VC3’s then-director, David Bruck, added the Parole Representation Project to VC3’s mission. Each year since then, VC3 students have represented at least sixteen prisoners in proceedings before the Virginia Parole Board …
