In this course, we will explore the law’s role in creating, exacerbating, alleviating, and remedying exclusionary and discriminatory tactics through the regulation of land. We will examine ways in which public and private land use laws have helped create structural inequalities based on race and class. As aspiring lawyers, it is important for us to consider what “is” and what could or should be. For that reason, we will explore how the law can serve as a mechanism for positive change. We will see how far we can push the law to help promote a more diverse, inclusive, open, and equitable community through the regulation of land.
