Gray Wilson Q: What can you tell us about your upbringing? I grew up in Boone, North Carolina, the son of a physician who was the last of a dying breed—the general practitioner. I lived through the blizzard of 1960 (23 days out of school), after which nothing really seemed that bad any more. I have one sister and two brothers, and all three of us boys attended Davidson College over a period of six years, but both of my brothers became doctors. I was the black sheep who decided to go to law school because I liked to write and argue more than the sight of blood. Q: When and how did you decide to become a lawyer? I decided to become a lawyer sitting around the dinner table as a boy arguing with my family, and a trial lawyer was the only kind I was ever interested in becoming. There were a lot of storytellers in the mountains, and G.

  • Armstrong Racial Origins Aug 18 2016 Submitted
    Racial Origins of Doctrines Limiting Prisoner Protest Speech Andrea C. Armstrong* ABSTRACT This article examines the racial origins of two foundational cases governing prisoner protest speech to better understand their impact in light of the Black Lives Matter movement. Two Supreme Court cases provide the primary architecture for the regulation of prisoner or detainee speech. The first, Adderley v. Florida, is (mis)interpreted for the proposition that jails (and by analogy, prisons) are non-public spaces. Under First Amendment doctrine, non-public spaces are subject to heightened regulation and suppression of speech is authorized. The second, Jones v. North Carolina Prisoners’ Labor Union, Inc., amplifies the effect of Adderley and prohibits prisoner solicitation for union membership. Together, these two cases effectively provide broad discretion to prison administrators to punish prisoners and detainees for their protest speech. Neither Adderley nor Jones acknowledge the racial origins of the cases. Holdings in both cases relied on race-neutral rationales and analysis and yet, the underlying concerns in each case appear tied to racial concerns and fears. Thus this Article is a continuation of a broader critical race praxis that reminds us that seemingly objective and neutral doctrines themselves may incorporate particular ideas and notions about race. Today’s protesters face a demonstrably different doctrinal landscape, should they protest within the prison or jail walls. While the content of speech by a “Black Lives Matter” activist may not change, the constitutional protection afforded to that speech will be radically different depending on where she speaks. * Associate Professor of Law, Loyola University New Orleans College of Law.

  • Why Mass Incarceration Matters: Rethinking Crisis, Decline, and Transformation in Postwar American History
    Why Mass Incarceration Matters: Rethinking Crisis, Decline, and Transformation in Postwar American History Heather Ann Thompson As the twentieth century came to a close and the twenty-first began, something occurred in the United States that was without international parallel or historical precedent. Be- tween 1970 and 2010 more people were incarcerated in the United States than were imprisoned in any other country, and at no other point in its past had the nation’s eco- nomic, social, and political institutions become so bound up with the practice of punish- ment. By 2006 more than 7.3 million Americans had become entangled in the criminal justice system. The American prison population had by that year increased more rapidly than had the resident population as a whole, and one in every thirty-one U.S. residents was under some form of correctional supervision, such as in prison or jail, or on proba- tion or parole. As importantly, the incarcerated and supervised population of the United States was, overwhelmingly, a population of color. African American men experienced the highest imprisonment rate of all racial groups, male or female. It was 6.5 times the rate of white males and 2.5 times that of Hispanic males. By the middle of 2006 one in fifteen black men over the age of eighteen were behind bars as were one in nine black men aged twenty to thirty-four. The imprisonment rate of African American women looked little better. It was almost double that of Hispanic women and three times the rate of white women.1 Despite the fact that ten times more Americans were imprisoned in the last decade of the twentieth century than were killed during the Vietnam War (591,298 versus 58,228), and even though a greater number of African Americans had ended up in penal institu- tions than in institutions of higher learning by the new millennium (188,500 more), his- torians have largely ignored the mass incarceration of the late twentieth century and have not yet begun to sort out its impact on the social, economic, and political evolution of the postwar period.

  • Compared to Other Country Rock Artists in Europe, Liane Edwards Is Like a Shot of Whiskey in a World of Sweet Tea
    Compared to other country rock artists in Europe, Liane Edwards is like a shot of whiskey in a world of sweet tea. Unlike the bands that sing songs about the South but yet have never seen a Carolina sunset, she is the real thing. But she has been doing her (own) thing for nearly 20 years, and doing it well. Liane Edwards was born in North Carolina. Raised in a family of musicians, her first stage performances were in Southern Baptist churches at the age of 7. She arrived in France in the 90’s and found the best French musicians to accompany her on her personal crazy train. Together, they have been touring for nearly 20 years, and have given well over 2000 stage shows throughout France, Belgium, Switzerland, Spain, Holland, Scotland, Lithuania and the USA. Singer/songwriters, their song list will keep feet tapping. What is the reason for their success? They have put a good dose of rock into their country, a surprising cocktail that chips away at preconceived ideas about what country music really is. This chick is dynamite!! The new album, Raisin’ Dust is just another example of the band’s energy and excellent songwriting. Their signature sound, and the raw emotion has pushed her once again into the discovery of limits and of self.
