The aim of the B(C) LJ/RD(C)N is to bring into focus legal issues pertaining to the communities of Black people within Canada, and the communities of Black people, globally, that are subject to the laws and judicial power of the Canadian State. As such, how the intersection of law and race relates to issues of migration, Indigeneity, sexuality, gender, imperialism, incarceration, labor, citizenship, etc., along with “traditional” areas of legal study, is necessarily the focus of the B(C) LR/RD(C)N.
