Abstract
Reviews one hundred years of civil-rights scholarship in the California Law Review in search of common patterns, lines of development, strains, and change. Identifies two emerging paradigms of civil rights thought, a black-white binary paradigm, and a liberty-equality divide, and shows their relationship to each other. The article also speculates on what their near-simultaneous emergence means for the future of civil rights thought.
Keywords: civil rights, critical race theory, black-white paradigm, equality, liberty, race
