Materials Relating to the Commission to Examine Racial Inequity in Virginia Law

Students, faculty, and graduates of the Law School played a significant role in the work of the Commission, and this collection begins to preserve their contributions. Specifically, Block and his clinic students and research assistants served as the research staff for the Commission beginning in 2020. Students wrote legal and policy research memos, presented their findings and policy recommendations at Commission meetings, and were the primary drafters of the second and third Commission reports to the Governor.
