Developed in collaboration with the Antiracist Development Institute at Penn State Dickinson Law, Antiracist Gateways to the Legal Profession is a hands-on guide to designing and scaling up pathway programs that bring diverse students to law schools and the legal profession.This edited volume critiques entrenched biases in law-school teaching, faculty hiring, admissions, and mentoring while proposing transformative, replicable pathways to expand access. It walks readers through how to develop, design, and asses an antiracist program aligned with a law school’s vision and mission; how to select and train participating faculty; how to recruit partners, sponsors, funders, and students; and how to convert participants into matriculating law students. This book also addresses gateway programs for faculty, staff, and administrators that bring diverse candidates into selection pools and prepare candidates for the job market.Grounded in antiracist principles and practices, Antiracist Gateways to the Legal Profession is a go-to resource for administrators, mentors, and admissions and hiring committees who are seeking concrete guidance in building equitable systems to transform the legal profession.
