  principal interest is examining socio-legal constructions of identity and
  how they inform and constrain civil rights protections aimed to combat in
 equality. As one of a few U.S. legal scholars actively engaged in the stud
 y of comparative slavery and race relations in the Americas and Caribbean\
 , Professor Greene’s work on race and racial inequality embodies a hemisph
 eric perspective. Her scholarship primarily explores emerging forms of wor
 kplace discrimination at the intersection of race\, color\, gender\, relig
 ion\, and national origin.  She has coined two recognized terms in the fie
 ld of labor and employment law - “misperception discrimination” and “groom
 ing codes discrimination.” Her internationally recognized work in these ar
 eas has shaped the enforcement stance of the Equal Employment Opportunity 
 Commission (EEOC)\, administrative law judges\, federal courts\, and civil
  rights organizations in civil rights cases. Notably\, the 11th Circuit an
 d Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals have endorsed Professor Greene’s publishe
 d definition of race as a legal authority on the social construction of ra
 ce and as a practicable definition for constitutional decision-making resp
 ectively.\n\nThis year's Black History Month is co-organized by The Office
  of the Provost and Vice-Principal (Academic)\, the Black Students' Networ
 k of 91������\, and the 91������ African Students Society (MASS) with generous
  support from across the university and city.\n
