This class seeks to understand how the law operates as a key dimension of the inequality Latinas/os face in the United States, while simultaneously being a venue where Latinas/os struggle for greater equality and justice. In particular, this class examines specific court cases that have had a significant impact on Latina/o communities. This course provides students with an in-depth understanding of U.S. judicial processes, practices, and principles. Students will come to understand how courts are a major source of public policy making, and have significantly shaped Latina/o experiences in the United States. The largest single area of case law we explore is education (desegregation, school finance, undocumented immigration, affirmative action), while also exploring cases that touch on jury selection, racial profiling, search and seizure, equal protection, and due process. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
