Edited on Sun Aug-08-10 10:02 PM by EFerrari
about the case and his book, "Presumption of Guilt" on BookTV.

(Video & transcript at link)

This was a great presentation, imo. Lots of inside baseball, good stories about other incidents and some good laugh lines, "Do you really want to know how this got there? There were no women present."


Description: The Harvard Law Professor attempts to put the arrest of his colleague last year into the historical context of race relations and criminal justice in the U.S. The event is at the Harvard Co-op.

fyi
