JAMAL GREENE: Sportswriter Turned Constitutional Law Professor
How many people have written for Sports Illustrated and the Harvard Law Review?Jamal Greene is one of the rare few.
His own story is compelling, growing up in a Brooklyn home that produced a constitutional law professor, Jamal, and a world-renowned rapper, his brother Talib Kweli. Jamal’s experiences at Harvard, Sports Illustrated and Yale Law School eventually led him to teaching constitutional law at a time in our history when its teaching is perhaps more important than ever. And he is teaching it at Columbia Law School, where constitutional questions don’t just exist in a textbook but right outside the classroom on campus.
