“FSU law school produces many of the lawmakers, lawyers, and judges whose professional role and calling is to serve the ends of justice. During the fall 2020 semester, Armour served as a panelist for a Zoom session hosted by FSU Law’s Black Law Students Association on the origins of police and the movement for reform. Armour also often appears on national television and radio programs as a legal analyst. He recently published a second book, N*gga Theory: Race, Language, Unequal Justice, and the Law (Los Angeles Review of Books). He has been published in many top law journals and authored a book, Negrophobia and Reasonable Racism: The Hidden Costs of Being Black in America (New York University Press), that addresses racial profiling, police brutality, and mass incarceration. His scholarship focuses on tort reform movements and the intersection of race and legal decision making. Armour is an expert on personal injury claims and claims about the relationship between racial justice, criminal justice, and the rule of law. It uses art and performance as a lens to analyze these and other issues.
The new course discusses and critically evaluates topics including critical race theory, the Black Lives Matter movement, unconscious bias, and the social construction of Black criminals.
Crocker Professor of Law at the University of Southern California, is teaching Race Ipsa Loquiter at FSU Law this semester.
