The Resurgence Of The Rap Act: Why Industry Professionals Enthusiastically Support This Bill, Ansley Henderson

Cardozo Arts & Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) Blog

Artists release music and write songs to create art, not to offer any sort of criminal confession. Yet, dating back to a 1996 criminal trial involving Snoop Dogg, artists’ lyrics have been admissible as evidence in criminal and civil trials. Most recently, rapper Young Thug, was accused of being the head of a violent gang based solely on lyrics from his songs as evidence. His case sparked nationwide controversy regarding the constitutionality of his lyrics being admitted as key evidence at trial. The rapper’s popular music collective known as “Young Stoner Life,” was posited by prosecutors to actually be a …

Outdated U.S. Safety Net Leaving Poor Communities Exposed To “Climate Strains”, Maurer School Of Law - Indiana University

Keep Up With the Latest News from the Law School (blog)

America’s safety net is failing to protect its most vulnerable citizens from the growing pressures of climate change, according to new research from an Indiana University Maurer School of Law Professor Andrew Hammond.

In a new article forthcoming in the Iowa Law Review, Hammond argues that while policymakers, the press, and the public tend to focus on climate “shocks” like hurricanes and wildfires, millions of Americans face overlooked climate “strains”—the everyday stresses of extreme heat, deteriorating air quality, and failing infrastructure that disproportionately affect low-income Americans.

Hammond’s paper, “Climate Strains and the Safety Net,” found that …

Free, Prior, Informed Consent And Power Imbalances: Upholding Indigenous Rights On The Anniversary Of Undrip, Cardozo Law Institute In Holocaust And Human Rights (Clihhr), Fernanda Frizzo Bragato

Guest Speaker: Fernanda Frizzo Bragato - Professor of Law at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS) and a CNPq-funded researcher.

On the anniversary of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), this discussion addresses its crucial role in reshaping Indigenous rights across the Americas.

Yet, 17 years later, gaps persist. While UNDRIP inspired regional frameworks like the 2016 OAS Declaration, its promises often clash …

This past summer, when I attended my third AALL Conference, I signed up to review a program for the ALL-SIS newsletter. I agreed to report on “AI in Law Libraries: Discussing Ethical Considerations and a Way Forward.” I had attended numerous presentations over three years, but this was the first time I analyzed a program in depth. I needed to make detailed notes about what the participants said, as well as what questions were asked and how the speakers responded to them. Then, I had to synthesize my notes and turn them into an effective program review, about 500-700 words …
