Law at the End of the Day: Now Available Spring 2024 Issue of Academe the Magazine of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP)

I pass along the contents of the Spring 2024 issue of Academe, in which the journal reconsiders the role of race in its history. This from the announcement:

Our spring issue takes an overdue step toward reconsidering the role of race in the AAUP’s history. Articles look to the past and draw lessons for the present, examining such topics as W. E. B. Du Bois’s membership in and resignation from the AAUP; the Association's discriminatory membership practices during the segregation era; academic freedom investigations and the Black freedom struggle; the AAUP’s work with HBCUs; the Angela Davis case at the University of California, Los Angeles; and the AAUP’s role in fights over affirmative action.

The issue contents with links follows below.
