Journal of Law & Inequality Launches Video Series on Legal Areas Impacted by COVID-19

Law & Inequality: A Journal of Theory and Practice recently launched a series of online video interviews with faculty, practitioners, and other legal experts about a variety of issues affecting law and inequality during COVID-19.

The interviews, conducted by students on the journal’s editorial staff, includes discussion of the pandemic’s impact on domestic violence, reproductive rights, the rights of incarcerated people, the state of public defense in Minnesota, and issues facing immigrants, as well as evictions and other housing-related matters.

“We plan to release these videos on Inequality Inquiry (the journal’s online companion) on a weekly basis in the coming weeks and months. We are also planning to upload it to the journal’s YouTube page and the dedicated playlist for public consumption, says Navin Ramalingam, 2L, the journal’s incoming editor-in-chief.

The first two videos in the COVID-19 series—an interview with Professor June Carbone on domestic violence and gender-related issues and an interview with Mid-Minnesota Legal Aid staff attorney Joey Dobson ’16  on eviction/housing issues—have already been posted on Inequality Inquiry.
