The Collaboratory for Black Legal Poethics, convened by Sarah Riley Case, brings together a collective of student researchers and engages community members to reflect on, theorize, and share stories about prefiguring Black liberation - and thus liberation for everyone - by conceptualizing law anew

The two current themes of the project are Black internationalism as a praxis of self-defence, and the meanings and possibilities of reparatory justice for the afterlives of slavery in Canada and the Caribbean

The project is housed at the McGill Faculty of Law
