LAW 752 Critical Race Theory

Critical race theory analyzes the intersections between race and the law. Specifically, it examines and critiques race as both a social and legal construct and explores the psychological and practical consequences that flow from those constructs. In this course students will consider the theoretical and intellectual contributions of critical race theory to legal discourse, as well as the liberal and conservative critiques of its tenets. Thus, the course will investigate critical race theory from multiple vantage points to assess both its strengths and its shortcomings as an advocacy tool for attorneys.
