Carving Out A Humanity Summary

Carving Out A Humanity: Race, Rights, and Redemption by Vincent Southerland

The preeminent civil rights attorneys and scholars of the past quarter-century weigh in on some of the most controversial aspects of race and the law, published to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the prestigious Derrick Bell Lecture Series. Originally delivered as Derrick Bell Lectures in a series at NYU School of Law, begun in 1995 and coming up through 2019, the pieces in Carving Out a Humanity offer an unprecedented array of today's most creative and brilliant thinking on race and the law.

Carving Out A Humanity Reviews

Praise for Carving Out a Humanity:
Penetrating essays on race and social stratification within policing and the law, in honor of pioneering scholar Derrick Bell. . . . Many powerfully acknowledge the persistence of structural racism and offer in-depth discussion regarding particular aspects of the law's effect on marginalized communities, resonant in an era of White supremacy's bid for mainstream acceptance.
-Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

This potent work draws conclusions about systemic injustice and race. . . . Scholars and lay readers alike will be enlightened and spurred to thought and discussion.
-Library Journal
