Klarman adds to topic of the week [March 23]

Since Barack Obama’s speech last week, even C-VILLE’s editor is talking about race. So it should come as no surprise that the New York Times is quoting UVA law Professor Michael Klarman today on the subject. “Nixon talks about ‘law and order,’ which is a code term for the urban race riots and rising crime rates,” said Klarman in a piece that breaks down politicians’ speeches for their intended message on race.
