Series on Racism in Administrative Law, Part 3: Immigration

Today’s episode of  A Hard Look  is the third in a series of four episodes that will examine the role that racism has historically played in Administrative Law, the ways that racism still actively pervades the Administrative Law Space, and the ways that practitioners, leaders, scholars, and our listeners can effectuate change. Each episode will be hosted by a different student on the Administrative Law Review and feature guests from across the country. On this episode, host Brendon and guests, Dean Kevin Johnson and Professor Carrie Rosenbaum, discuss how immigration law, administrative law, and racism have historically intersected in several major Supreme Court cases on immigration. The guests also talk about the use of critical race theory in immigration academia, some of the barriers to immigration reform, and the recent Supreme Court decision in Department of Homeland Security vs. Board of Regents of the University of California.  Professor Carrie Rosenbaum authored "UnEqual Protection in Immigration Law" for the Yale Journal of Regulation.  The series was inspired by the Yale Journal of Regulation’s Symposium on Racism in Administrative Law. A special “Thank You” to all of the hosts and guests that participated and to Professor Kathryn Kovacs for spearheading the Symposium and for getting this conversation started.
