Alanna C. Kane is a Bernard A. and Lenore S. Greenberg Legal Scholar Fellow at UCLA School of Law. Her research examines the intersections of race, power, and federal courts. Her current project uncovers the juridical deployment of what she names doctrinal white supremacy, analyzing every instance the term is used in federal courts jurisprudence.

Before returning to UCLA Law, she clerked for the Honorable Andrew L. Carter, Jr. on the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of New York. She will be clerking for the Honorable Eunice C. Lee on the U.S. Court of Appeals in the Second Circuit. She previously worked as a litigation associate at White & Case LLP. 

Kane received her B.A. cum laude from Dartmouth College in 2017, majoring in Government and double minoring in International Studies and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. She received her J.D. in Critical Race Studies from UCLA School of Law in 2022. She served as Editor-in-Chief of Volume 69 of the UCLA Law Review and received the 2022 Lani Guinier Student Service Award.

Kane's Comment, Doctrinal White Supremacy, was a finalist in the 2022 American Constitution Society Constance Baker Motley Writing Competition, and her work has appeared in the UCLA Law Review.
