Our Work

The Center advances its work through interconnected approaches that shape our research, advocacy, and partnerships. Grounded in collaboration with communities, scholars, advocates, and policymakers, we translate insight into action.

Research & Thought Leadership
We challenge dominant narratives and produce original research and analysis that reveal how race shapes the law, contributing scholarship and public commentary that shift the field.

Litigation & Advocacy
We pursue strategies that disrupt harmful systems and promote justice, through litigation, amicus advocacy, policy reform, and coalition work.

Education & Leadership Development
Through legal education, training, and mentorship, we support the next generation of leaders working to transform and challenge the institutions they encounter.

Convenings & Community Engagement
We bring people together through public programs, dialogues, and partnerships that deepen relationships, strengthen movements, and support collective action.
