Review # 2 was written on 2020-12-29 00:00:00 P J ASTA This isn't One L--Mirande does not provide a play-by-play of his law school years. Instead, he describes what he feels are the most remarkable aspects of his legal education--the silencing of students of color in the classroom, transformative Lawyering for Social Change courses, a seminar on big firms, representing his first client, and largely, the friction between a lawyer's mindset and his Chicano spirit. The books is weighed down by its flaws. It can be incredibly dry and seems thrown together at certain points. (For instance, the chapter on big firms is simply a data dump of Mirande's papers from the course.) Though most readers will be sympathetic to Mirande's concerns, he is not the most likable narrator. As an aspiring public interest lawyer, I found this book useful. It's not necessarily a page turner, but it is informative.
