Equality Before the Law: An Open Educational Resource is a public-facing resource for teachers, students, scholars, and communities to help these groups piece together (and pull apart) how law and legal processes shaped the construction of race, slavery, freedom, and unfreedom across U.S. history to today. It also serves as a research tool for studying how people engage with critical histories, comprehend the meaning of historical evidence, and absorb the meaning of unfamiliar stories, storytelling, and historical perspectives on present experiences.
