I am a PhD Candidate in the Department of Political Science at Emory University. My research considers how technology and innovation shape access to justice for marginalized groups in American legal institutions. My current research examines the origins and impact of video teleconferencing technology in United States immigration courts. I co-founded and organize the Junior Law and Politics Research Community. I am also a founding member of the Immigration Law Lab at Emory and a researcher with the Deportation Data Project. https://www.devonthurman.com/community daily 0.75 2025-09-17 https://www.devonthurman.com/research daily 0.75 2025-09-28 https://www.devonthurman.com/new-page daily 0.75 2023-08-07 https://www.devonthurman.com/teaching-2 daily 0.75 2025-09-18 https://www.devonthurman.com/welcome-1 daily 0.75 2025-09-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62adfcfdf951920a263c7a88/8a18e351-0e59-4968-b115-d24b02f84d54/IMG_9682.png SERVICE - Here are a few groups fighting for social and political equality I work with or support: El Refugio (Family and Community Support for Detained Immigrants) Innovation Law Lab (Immigrant and Refugee Justice) Deportation Data Project (Transparency in Immigration Enforcement Data) Bike & Build (Affordable Housing) https://www.devonthurman.com/teaching daily 0.75 2025-09-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62adfcfdf951920a263c7a88/e7cd62c2-9aa0-405b-aeaa-8f7e46f4eed1/IMG_2217+2.png TEACHING - This spring at Emory, I will be teaching Civil Liberties and Planning Community Initiatives.
