Entering its twenty-ninth year, the Berkeley La Raza Law Journal is only one of four journals in the United States that focus on Latina/o conditions, communities, and identities in the U.S. and abroad—and the sociolegal conditions of other communities of color. At the cutting edge of jurisprudence in the United States, the Journal is a vital member of the social justice community at the University of California, Berkeley School of Law (Boalt Hall).

The Journal is calling for original article or commentary submissions that offer innovative, timely, practical or controversial viewpoints addressing law or policy relating specifically to Latinas/os or to other communities of color. We welcome manuscripts from academics, practitioners and students across disciplines.

In 2007, we launched our new undergraduate fellow program, which introduces U.C. Berkeley undergraduates to the production of critical legal knowledge and provides valuable opportunities to meet and interact with lawyers, legal scholars and others who have dedicated their lives to the Latina/o community.
