Interview with Alexis J. Hoag on the 8th Amendment Debate

The 1619 Project continues online.

Alexis J. Hoag
Lecturer at Columbia Law School

I had the opportunity to interview Alexis Hoag, Practitioner in Residence at Columbia Law School’s Holder Initiative, about the systemic racial issues at the heart of our Judicial system. Professor Hoag is an anti-death penalty advocate who recently published, Valuing Black Lives: A Case for Ending the Death Penalty and argued before the Ohio Supreme Court advocating for Glen Bates. Our conversation lasted about thirty minutes.
