Talk:Judicial aspects of race in the United States

message: A good start! I really welcome this article for laying out the interconnections between immigration law, the laws surrounding Native Americans, slavery and the lives of free blacks, and the later Jim Crow laws. 
Some suggestions for further research: check out the work of Peggy Pascoe ("Miscegenation Law, Court Cases, and Ideologies of 'Race' in Twentieth Century America"), David Hollinger ("Amalgamation and Hypodescent: The Question of Ethnoracial Mixture in the History of the United States") and Patrick Wolfe ("Land, Labour, and Difference: Elementerary Structures of Race").

message: Good start, but the article needs to use more academic sources on history and political science, who have written about the historic, legal and constitutional issues. Loewen is not the only commentator. Language should be encyclopedic, without OPED phrases.Parkwells (talk) 15:35, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

message: Hi, everyone!
I intend to edit the following sections-
* "Legislation during the nadir of American race relations": This section is long and unorganized. I will divide it into subsections, including electoral disenfranchisement, anti-miscegenation laws, "sundown towns" and other residential racial segregation, and immigration laws.
* "The 'Yellow Peril' and the national origins formula": First, I will separate the section on the Yellow Peril from the content on the national origins formula. In the "Yellow Peril" section, I will expand the references to specific court cases, expand on naturalization requirements, and add citations. In the second section, I'll go into depth on the origins, enactment, and effects of the national origin formula.
I also intend to add the following sections-
* "The census": I will create a section explaining how the census has been used and misused to affect immigration quotas, especially in the early 20th century. This section will also cover the effect of the census on the construction of racial categories.
* "Degrees of whiteness": Here I will discuss the distinctions between different white peoples after they immigrated, specifically how Italians and other Southern Europeans were not afforded the same privileges as other white groups. This will cover the conceptualization of whiteness, discriminatory legislation, the eventual acceptance of these groups as white, and common counterarguments to this narrative.
Does anyone have any additional suggestions?
