Bullock v. Tamiami Trail Tours, Inc. ("The Foreseeable Racism Case")
Note! This case involves racially motivated violence and it uses outdated language to refer to the plaintiffs. I edited the latter to avoid distracting from the reasoning in the opinion (but feel free to read behind my edits). I have included the opinion itself because it is a good illustration of the relevant legal principles and because its inclusion helps to highlight the relationship between race and torts--a relationship that might otherwise be erased.
