@hyphenatedprof kicked off the morning sharing with us the history “Before Shelley,” stressing the importance of “pernicious property stories” and centering the stories of the Black families (including her own) that inhabited the space contested in Shelley v Kraemer.
Taja-Nia Henderson is starting out our day of presentations with her keynote address "Before Shelley: Black Community Making in the Face of Local Hostility."

Zoning regulations often have the same pernicious effects that racially restrictive covenants once had. The solution per Prof Clowney: Nationalize Zoning!
Now we're hearing from Stephen Clowney for his presentation, "Nationalize Zoning Law."

Although racially restrictive covenants are no longer legal, they still result in downstream costs to third parties.
Our final speaker before lunch is Randall Johnson from @UMKCLaw. His presentation is titled, "How to Limit the Downstream Costs of Racially Restrictive Covenants."
