  • サマリー

  • We typically think of the Civil Rights Movement as occurring during the 1950s-60s, however, I believe the movement for civil rights and racial equality extends as far back as slavery and continues to the present time. In this podcast, which is an adaption of an ad hoc seminar I created while a student at Duke University School of Law, each week I discuss the stories beyond some of the most important civil rights cases, from slavery to the present, and explain why I believe they are significant and what we can learn. This podcast is the audio adaptation of the video series I created titled "The Untold Stories of the Civil Rights Movement," which can be found on my website www.palookesworld.com Follow Me: Twitter: @palookesworld Instagram: @palookesworld YouTube: Brooke Girley

  • McCleskey v. Kemp (1987)

    McCleskey v. Kemp (1987)
    2020/12/04
    This week I look at the case of McCleskey v. Kemp (1987), a decision that's been called the Dred Scott case of our time. This case looks at racial disparities in the handing out of the death penalty. After defendant Warren McCleskey was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of white officer Frank Shlatt, his attorneys relied on a comprehensive study by Professor David Baldus, which analyzed potential racial disparities with respect to the death penalty in the state of Georgia. What the study found is that when a victim is white, a defendant is 4.3 times more likely to be sentenced to death than if the victim was of another race. McCleskey argued that such disparities ran afoul of the 8th Amendment and 14th Amendment Equal Protection Clause. The court's ruling was a major setback for civil rights. Listen to find out why.

  • Batson v. Kentuck (1986)

    Batson v. Kentuck (1986)
    2020/11/27
    This week I look at Batson v. Kentucky (1986), which deals with preventing black people from serving on the jury. In this case, James K Batson was charged with two counts of burglary and receipt of stolen property. During his trial, the prosecutor, a white man, struck all the black people from the potential jury pool. Batson was convicted by an all-white jury and sentenced to 20 years in prison. He appealed his case to the US Supreme Court arguing that the use of what's called a "peremptory challenge" to remove all the black people from the potential jury pool violated his 6th Amendment's right to a fair trial and the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause. What emerged from this case is what's now known as the Batson Rule. Listen to find out what that is exactly and to discover the remarkable way this story ended.
