The Racial Justice Law Clinic is one of two new law clinics launched at Minnesota Law in fall 2022. Associate Clinical Professor Liliana Zaragoza, who recently joined the Law School from the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, serves as faculty director for the clinic. By participating in the clinic, second- and third-year students learn how to engage in direct representation, strategic litigation, and other forms of advocacy as part of a greater movement to advance the rights of Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian-American Pacific Islander, and/or other People of Color.
