Weekend Roundup

• It's more than a year away, but you should still put this down in the calendar: "Legal History and Empires, Perspectives from the colonized" will be hosted by the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill Campus, Barbados on July 11-13, 2018. This conference follows on the "Legal Histories of the British Empire" conference in Singapore in 2012. In between, a 2015 conference was planned for Accra, Ghana. Unfortunately, "Traditions, Borrowings, Innovations & Impositions: Law in the Post-Colony and in Empire" was cancelled due to Ebola in other parts of west Africa. Watch for the Caribbean conference's Call for Papers, coming later this year. 

• A recording of Federal Government Historians, the recent AHA panel, is here, courtesy of C-SPAN.  “Historians who work within the federal government talked about how their institutions document and influence policy making, while striving to remain objective in a political environment.  They spoke about their research projects, preservation initiatives, and how they help other historians access classified documents.” 

• Also available online is Helen Z.M. Rodgers: First Woman Graduate of Buffalo Law School, a lecture by Bernadette Gargano, Lecturer in Law, Legal Analysis, Writing and Research, SUNY Buffalo Law School.

• The TOC for the Journal of Supreme Court History 41:1 (March 2017) is here. 

• Today, at Princeton University: Beyond Stonewall: New Histories of Religion and Sexuality in America.

• Christopher Beauchamp, Brooklyn Law School, performs a valuable service for anyone who has yet to say goodbye to law reviews.  In the Green Bag, of course.

• On Thursday, March 30 at 3:30 PM, at the Miller Center for Public Affairs at the University of Virginia, Joanne Freeman, Yale University, delivers the lecture “A Shilly-Shally Thing:” The Constitution, the Presidency, and Alexander Hamilton.
