As a legal academic, I hope to engage the world and change how we think about and respond to various pressing problems, on matters of race and technology. Here is a select archive of public lectures, talks, and editorials.

- 07 CNN Interview on Affirmative Action (linked 2007 05 20)
As always, soundbites aren’t helpful. Here’s what’s important to know: - Treating Asians worse than Whites is “negative action” and there’s no justification for it
- Treating Asians the same as Whites is “neutral action”, and this may be justified even if both groups suffer indirect burdens in light of affirmative action given to other groups
- To learn more about these concepts, see Negative Action against Asian Americans
- For a general introduction to affirmative action and Asian Americans, see Beyond Self-Interest
- To learn more about what recent research from the mind sciences says about this topic, see my Fair Measures article
