ItemEnvironmental Justice for Indigenous Hawaiians: Reclaiming Land and Resources(21 Nat. Resources & Env't 37, 2007)Through the examples of land reclamation in Wao Kele o Puna rainforest, Waimea Valley, and Kahoʻolawe, this essay explores the current "environmental justice" model and posits a new type of Native Hawaiian "restorative environmental justice" that takes into account the unique experiences of indigenous Hawaiians. The traditional environmental justice model typically focuses on the siting of hazardous facilities near communities of color and the poor. This traditional model often furthers environmental justice by providing communities of color and indigenous communities the tools they need to advocate effectively for the siting and health outcomes they seek.

ItemAmerican Racial Justice on Trial - Again: African American Reparations, Human Rights, and the War on Terror(101 Mich. L. Rev. 1269, 2003)The essay examines the ongoing and impending African American reparations suits and frames in larger terms what may well be at stake in this forthcoming epochal trial of American Racial Justice. In particular, the essay draws linkages among African American redress claims, the United States' approach to international human rights and America's moral authority to fight its preemptive "war on Terror." Drawing upon and extending Professor Derrick Bell's interest-convergence thesis and Professor Mary Dudziak's ensuing research into the international underpinnings of Brown v. Board of Education," the essay offers insights into what the future might be, here and in the eyes of worldwide communities, depending on what choices we in America make about African American justice claims and human rights.
