Submission Guidelines
The Thurgood Marshall Law Review invites you to submit an article

rights (Fall Journal) or energy, gas, and oil (Spring Journal).
We intend to publish a practitioner’s guide for the local community,

The specific topic can come from situations that you encounter in

need a voice.
