Abstract:

This report of the Rockefeller Foundation analyzes the state of civil rights litigation in light of federal civil rights laws and protections. "The report suggests that despite such protections, structural barriers to opportunities, resources and policymaking—particularly for minorities—remain embedded in political and economic systems. The 166-page report highlights innovative partnerships between civil rights lawyers and communities to address problems of inequality and exclusion."
