On Tuesday, April 2, I will be speaking on federalism and its implications for various racial, ethnic, religious, and political minorities at Harvard Law School. I will be appearing with Yale Law School Professor Heather Gerken, a leading federalism scholar who has argued that her fellow progressives should take a more favorable view of federalism because – under modern conditions – it often benefits a variety of minority groups. I previously commented on Gerken’s important work on “Progressive Federalism” here and here.
The event is sponsored by the Harvard Federalist Society, the Women’s Law Association, and the Abigail Adams Society. It will run from noon to 1 PM, and will be held in Austin West, on the first floor of Austin Hall. Attendees will get free food as well as free intellectual sustenance.
