Legal History Roundtable with Andrew Lanham (Climenko Fellow, Harvard Law)
Thursday, April 11, 2024 4:30pm

About this Event
Andrew Lanham will be presenting "Radical Visions for the Law of Peace: How W.E.B. Du Bois and the Black Antiwar Movement Reimagined Equal Rights in a World at War"
Lanham is a legal and cultural historian whose work examines how social movement activists developed alternative theories of equality, circulated those theories in the public sphere, and pressed for legal change in the period from Reconstruction to the Cold War. His first book project, from which this paper derives, is a legal history of African American antiwar activism in the twentieth century, with a particular focus on the behind-the-scenes collaborations between civil rights and antiwar organizations. He is currently a Climenko Fellow at Harvard Law School and will be an Assistant Professor at the University of Houston Law Center beginning August 2024.
