    Symposium Fifty Years of Loving V. Virginia and the Continued Pursuit of Racial Equality Foreword

    SYMPOSIUM FIFTY YEARS OF LOVING V. VIRGINIA AND THE CONTINUED PURSUIT OF RACIAL EQUALITY FOREWORD R.A. Lenhardt,* Tanya K. Hernández** & Kimani Paul-Emile*** INTRODUCTION It has been ten years since this journal last published a volume exploring Loving v. Virginia,1 the U.S. Supreme Court’s 1967 decision invalidating antimiscegenation laws on equal protection and due process grounds.2 In that time, the American public has been treated to a virtual smorgasbord of new opportunities to love Loving. First, in a way few could have imagined fifty years ago when seventeen states criminalized interracial marriages,3 that decision has provided the impetus for a “global network” of celebrations designed to praise interracial relationships and families and to combat discrimination.4 Families and couples now gather annually in communities * Professor of Law and Faculty Director, Center on Race, Law and Justice, Fordham University School of Law. ** Archibald R. Murray Professor of Law, Fordham University School of Law. *** Associate Professor Law, Fordham University School of Law. This conference would not have been possible without the assistance of a network of people. We are very grateful to Amanda Gottlieb, Julia MacAllister, Adam Minchew, Catherine Tremble, and others at the Fordham Law Review for their hard work in connection with this Symposium. We also extend special thanks to Tomas Barron for excellent research assistance and to Carrie Johnson, Shanelle Holley, and Rob Yasharian for their hard work in publicizing and handling the many details involved in making an event of this sort successful. Finally, we express our gratitude to Dean Matthew Diller for his support and, of course, extend thanks to the talented scholars who, by participating in the conversations facilitated by this conference, deepened our collective understanding of Loving v.

    Defending Love Claire Barber and Kate Doherty Senior Division Performance Process Paper Word Count: 494

    Defending Love Claire Barber and Kate Doherty Senior Division Performance Process Paper Word Count: 494 1 Our National History Day topic is centered around the Loving vs. Virginia court case which abolished anti-miscegenation laws throughout the United States. We chose this topic because of its proximity to where we live with Claire living on the border between Bowling Green and Caroline County and Kate living in downtown Fredericksburg both close to the Lovings’ residence in Caroline County. We feel honored to locally have such a monumental case. We began our research at the University of Mary Washington’s Simpson Library. We were able to find law books that discussed the changes in the law during this time. Additionally, we saw how many people wrote first-hand accounts of the discrimination that those in interracial marriages faced before and after the ruling. It was really fun finding different means of collecting information as well, including an interview with the Assistant Commonwealth’s Attorney for the city of Fredericksburg. At first, we were disappointed that the UMW library did not have the physical Free Lance-Star newspapers for the year of 1967, but we were informed that they had been converted to microfilm, which was challenging for us. As two teenagers who had never even heard of microfilm and it took trial and error to learn how to load the machine and in the end, use it. To gain more insight into the personal aspects of the case, we tried to get in contact with Bernard Cohen, one of the original lawyers on the Lovings’ case, who still lives in Fredericksburg.

    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

    Congressional Investigations: Subpoenas and Contempt Power

    Order Code RL31836 Report for Congress Received through the CRS Web Congressional Investigations: Subpoenas and Contempt Power April 2, 2003 Louis Fisher Senior Specialist in Separation of Powers Government and Finance Division Congressional Research Service ˜ The Library of Congress Congressional Investigations: Subpoenas and Contempt Power Summary When conducting investigations of the executive branch, congressional committees and Members of Congress generally receive the information required for legislative needs. If agencies fail to cooperate or the President invokes executive privilege, Congress can turn to a number of legislative powers that are likely to compel compliance. The two techniques described in this report are the issuance of subpoenas and the holding of executive officials in contempt. These techniques usually lead to an accommodation that meets the needs of both branches. Litigation is used at times, but federal judges generally encourage congressional and executive parties to settle their differences out of court. The specific examples in this report explain how information disputes arise and how they are resolved. For legal analysis see CRS Report 95-464A, Investigative Oversight: An Introduction to the Law, Practice, and Procedure of Congressional Inquiry, by Morton Rosenberg, and CRS Report RS30319, Presidential Claims of Executive Privilege: History, Law, Practice and Recent Developments, by Morton Rosenberg.

    Reagan's Cabinet Appointments Get Positive Ratings from the Public

    The Harris Survey For Release: Thursday AM, January 22nd, 1981 1981 #7 ISSN 0273-1037 REAGAN'S CABINET APPOINTMENTS GET POSITIVE RATINGS FROM THE PUBLIC By Louis Harris A 52-34 percent majority of Americans gives President Ronald Reagan positive marks for his Cabinet appointments. The prevailing belief is that an incoming president should have a chance to name his own people to his team, and they should be permitted to try their hand at solving governmental problems over an initial period of time. Some partisan strains still carryover from the election, however, and the Reagan Cabinet will soon be subject to criticism if its performance does not meet the high expectations people have set for it. For example, those who voted for Carter in the last election give the new Cabinet negative marks by 49-38 percent, as do liberals by 50-37 percent. But the majority of Reagan voters, along with Republicans and independents, give the new President high scores on his overall Cabinet selections. There are some wide variations in the public response to the Cabinet, however, as shown by the results of this latest Harris Survey of 1,499 adults nationwide. Four appointments receive broad acceptance: --U.N. Ambassador Jeane Kirkpatrick's nomination leads the list, with a 57-27 percent majority that thinks her appointment was sound and right. This is a reflection of people's desire to have more women in prominent government positions. --A 55-27 percent majority gives President Reagan high marks for naming Samuel Pierce, a black New York lawyer, as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development.
