X-WR-CALDESC:The Rules of Evidence are used on a daily basis in the legal s
 ystem\, but little thought is given to how those rules reflect the cultura
 l norms\, sensibilities\, and racial biases operating at an institutional 
 and societal level at the time they were written. Practitioners and laypeo
 ple alike may believe that the Rules of Evidence are unbiased and equitabl
 e\, but we find racially coded language throughout\, and the application o
 f these rules cannot escape the system in which they are employed. Oftenti
 mes\, race and racism themselves are used as de facto evidence and sources
  of proof.\n\nThis program will explore the development of the Rules of Ev
 idence\, examining what was going on at the time the rules were developed\
 , the many examples of how parties do not experience equitable evidentiary
  burdens\, and the negative effect that racially-biased use of the Rules o
 f Evidence can have on the economic empowerment of people of color. From l
 ack of evidentiary scrutiny to the introduction of antiracist expert evide
 nce\, we can see how race is used as a proxy for credibility and character
 \, further enflaming racial stereotypes and negatively influencing jurispr
 udential decision-making.\n\nCost: Free\n\nCT: 2.0 CLE Credits (Ethics)
