“
I’m writing a book on the idea of equality among African American intellectuals in the early twentieth century. I’m also in the final stages of a coedited volume on Francis Daniel Pastorius, a seventeenth century German lawyer who emigrated to Pennsylvania, and a coedited volume (with my dean, Mark Brandon), the Cambridge Companion to the Declaration of Independence, and I’m in the early stages of a co-edited volume on literary addresses to southern colleges before the Civil War. My articles in progress include an expansive study of appellate decisions regarding slaves held in trust, a study of Klan violence in North Carolina in the 1860s and 1870s and their appeals to the rule of “law,” a study of the micro trials in a suspected slave rebellion in North Carolina in 1802, and several shorter pieces, on tortious interference with an expectancy, controlling executors’ discretion, and a piece on trusts and estates pedagogy involving surveys of student attitudes towards intestacy.
