Prof. Liliana Zaragoza Interviewed & Quoted by Multiple Media Outlets on Case Filed by the Racial Justice Law Clinic on Behalf the NAACP Against the City of Minneapolis
Minnesota Law's Racial Justice Law Clinic led by Professor Liliana Zaragoza and the Law Office of Tim Phillips filed a lawsuit on behalf of the Minneapolis branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (Minneapolis NAACP) challenging the Minneapolis Police Department’s use of covert social media accounts to surveil the Minneapolis NAACP and its members.
From the Star Tribune: "The lawsuit, filed in federal court Wednesday, says the Minneapolis Police Department discriminated against the NAACP and violated its members' constitutional rights when it singled out the organization for surveillance 'on the basis of race.'
'These are accounts that are supposed to be used for official investigations. There were none,' said Liliana Zaragoza, director of the University of Minnesota's Racial Justice Law Clinic and attorney for the NAACP."
