On November 14, 2016, Professor Moore accepted an invitation to present her paper, Decarceral Constitutionalism, at Tulane University Law School in New Orleans.
Professor Moore accepted an invitation to serve as an expert advisor on a $500,000 research project funded by the United States Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Assistance. The project connects community-based participatory researchers from the University of Cincinnati with leaders of the participatory defense movement, the National Association for Public Defense, and the Urban Institute. The project will obtain input from low-income defendants, public defenders, and researchers to design a national survey that will elicit new and important information about the status of public defense in the United States. The resulting data should provide a new and far more accurate baseline for research and policy reform.
Professor Moore, with Alphonse Gerhardstein, Iris Roley, Tracy Teslow, and Earl Wright II, participated in a panel co-hosted by Cincinnati Law’s Center for Race, Gender, and Social Justice, along with the Cincinnati Project, and the Division of Student Affairs. The panel reviewed DOJ findings on policing patterns and civil rights violations and how they might be applied in Cincinnati.
