I'd told myself that I wouldn't blog about Henry Lewis Gates' arrest, because I have nothing to add that hasn't been said better by someone else already. But I now have a title for one of the articles that certainly will be written about this....
I've already written about the virtues of Rashomon for teaching law students about different perspectives. (Though I've also noted that perhaps Tommy Land reaches the current generation of students better.) So ... amidst all of the talk of race this week, it seems to me that the title of one of the articles that will emerge from this should be "Rashomon on Ware Street."
Ah, lovely Ware Street. Is it named after Henry Ware, a person I sometimes study?
