When Ignorance Is Not Bliss: in Search of Racial and Gender Equity in Intercollegiate Athletics |
61 Missouri Law Review 329 (Spring 1996) |

The informal definition, in turn, is an athlete. Using the term jock to describe an athlete certainly has sexist, and perhaps even racial, implications. Given this...; Search Snippet: ...When Ignorance Is Not Bliss: in Search of Racial and Gender Equity in Intercollegiate Athletics Rodney K. Smith [Fna] Copyright ©... |

In writing of her liminality as a black woman who looks white, Judy Scales-Trent in Notes of a White Black Woman: Race, Color, Community refers to her recurrent phantom pain--presumedly arising from her missing color or from her destabilized racial identity.

Domestic Violence and Feminist Jurisprudence: Towards a New Agenda |

Domestic Violence and Tribal Protection of Indigenous Women in the United States |
69 Saint John's Law Review 69 (Winter-Spring 1995) |

38 Howard Law Journal 611 (Summer 1995) |
Demonizing single motherhood and welfare encourages one to think of these mothers as them and not us, and to contemplate policies for them that we would never consider for ourselves and our children. At worst, such women are viewed as a menace to society, or as a public enemy. At best, they are viewed as sociological cripples whose...; Search Snippet: ...Howard Law Journal Summer 1995 Don't Believe the Hype: Black Women, Patriarchy and the New Welfarism Lisa A.

The Nicole Simpson murder has focused public attention on domestic violence as never before. Yet despite an unprecedented level of media coverage and a proliferation of proposed legislation, domestic violence remains the leading health risk for American women.
