- W1147650014 abstract "INTRODUCTION By EDWARD C. MADDOX, JR. Associate Editor, BLACK LAW JOURNAL T the nexus of which is seemingly beyond our grasp when Justice hangs in the balance, has been shaken loose from its moorings of Racism and Discrimination and moved on occasion in the direction of Humaneness and Fairness. In the legal world, the fulcrum on which the shaft of Justice oscillates is the court system. At the apex of that hinge sits the court of penultimacy: the Supreme Court. HE FINE AND DELICATE BALANCE OF POWER, When the structures of Power are moved from the Right to the Left, from Exclusion to Inclusion, or from Deafness to Openness, many of us have come to realize that it is not as a result of some mysterious osmosian process whereby the sensibilities of life seep into the chambers of the Supreme Court and emerge as a victorious landmark. Neither does it seem to be because the forces of Regression and Oppression are any weaker than they were in the days when the Black man was a human nullity before the blind eyes of the Court. When the balance of power moves one iota, it is more likely because a sturdy lever has forced its motion. Such has been the effect of the work of the brilliant Black attorneys who have been and continue to be the advocates of change on behalf of the Black community in the forum of the Supreme Court. The Board of Editors of the BLACK LAW JOURNAL has selected six out- standing Black attorneys who are advocates of this unique genre as subjects for the profiles in this issue. These power brokers by no means represent the long list of Black attorneys who have argued cases or have otherwise been involved in Supreme Court litigation, but they are hopefully representa- tive of the cross-section of lawyers who are the champions of the Black community at the Supreme Court level. Our selections for this issue are the distinguished Robert L. Carter who was just recently honored by the National Conference of Black Lawyers for his contributions over the last 25 years; Julius Le Vonne Chambers who argued the recent school desegregation cases; William T. Coleman who at- tained an international reputation for his work in the field of human rights; Edward A. Dawley who along with his partner Len W. Holt battled against arbitrary courtroom procedures that have been used against Black attorneys defending unpopular cases; and Conrad K. Harper who has achieved major desegregation breakthroughs in Arkansas and other areas of the South." @default.
