- A funding opportunity
What first got Latinos Unidos thinking about working with lawyers
and law students was a "Call for Letters of Intent"
that was issued by the Funder's Collaborative for Racial Justice
Innovation. We post it here because the approach it describes
to lawyer-community collaboration was quite interesting, and
we thought others might want to see it as well.
- Interim Report on pilot study, April 2004
Latinos Unidos wanted an interim report they could show to supporters and funders in the middle of the semester, and this is what we produced.
- Spanish-English Glossary of Legal Terms
As we worked on this project, we began to realize that accurate
translation of legal terms and legal concepts is not an easy
task. Spring Miller, Professor Ansley's research assistant,
volunteered to coordinate putting together this glossary, drawing
on her very helpful experiences in Central America and in urban
immigrant communities in the Northeast and Midwest. We are aware
that usages vary and that translation can be a difficult enterprise.
Feedback is weclome.
- Demographic Change in Tennessee: A Survey of Demographic and Social Science Research
We found that many of the people we spoke with repeatedly asked us for information about the nature and magnitude of the demographic changes now taking place in Tennessee, the Southeast, and the nation as a whole. Spring Miller, Professor Ansley's research assistant, put together this survey of available information on this topic.
