Шаблон:Infobox journal The Harvard Civil Rights – Civil Liberties Law Review is a student-run law review published by Harvard Law School.[1] The journal is published two times per year and contains articles, essays, and book reviews concerning civil rights and liberties.[2] As of 2014, it was the leading progressive law journal in the United States.[3] In 2009, its online companion Amicus was launched, which features standard length journal articles coupled with online responses.[4] In 2018, the journal launched its podcast, Taking Liberties, which features panel discussions on current events related to civil rights and civil liberties, interviews with scholars and practitioners who fight for them, and tributes to those who have contributed to the advancement of civil rights throughout history.[5]

History

Boyer (later Professor and Associate Dean at Howard Law School), Joseph Meisser, and Frank Parker in the wake of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.[6] The funds for the establishing the journal, a figure of $600 as requested by Boyer, were granted after a short meeting with Harvard Law School Dean Ervin Griswold. In their first issue the editors of the new publication wrote that the review "is an emblem and achievement of the collaboration" between the Harvard Civil Liberties Research Service, the Law Students Civil Rights Research Council, and the Harvard Civil Rights Committee, three newly formed organizations that had recently noticed the dearth of legal material on civil rights:
