The Black Expirience at Law School

Post by singleblackguy » Fri Jun 20, 2014 4:49 pm

Before I get bombarded with Affirmative Action/ URM boost responses, etc. etc. let me start with a disclaimer: blacks, no doubt, have an advantage in the law school admissions process.

There are, however, disparaging blockades in LS for many African Americans. I want this thread to be a way for blacks who have gone through law school/ are in law school to share their stories with overcoming a largely white privilege/majority. I don't need to go into the ways in which these subtle discriminations are manifested in law school, but I think most of us can acknowledge that they do exist.

Please share experiences and hope in this thread.

Can other minorities join in too? Us Asians are presumed to be smart. Not cool
