Title Vii and the Complex Female Subject |
92 Michigan Law Review 2479 (August, 1994) |
There are so many roots to the tree of anger that sometimes the branches shatter before they bear. Sitting in Nedicks the women rally before they march discussing the problematic girls they hire to make them free. An almost white counterman passes a waiting brother to serve them first and the ladies neither notice nor reject the slighter pleasures...; Search Snippet: ...The Future of Title Vii Title Vii and the Complex Female Subject Kathryn Abrams [Fna] Copyright (C) 1994 Michigan Law Review... |

By 1990, thirty-three task forces had looked at gender bias in the courts, but none had extended its study to the practicing profession or to the law schools in the jurisdiction. Several of the reports, however, indicated that some of the unfair treatment of women found in the courts might be traced to the law school experience.

Legal Education, Feminist Epistemology, and the Socratic Method |
45 Stanford Law Review 1571 (July, 1993) |
I have been asked to comment on the papers presented by Judith Resnik and Deborah Rhode. Deborah and Judith have both demonstrated how certain elements of feminist theory would move us toward transformations of legal education, and of law practice as well. I would like to talk about the contribution made by another aspect of feminist theory: the...; Search Snippet: ...Legal Education, Feminist Values, and Gender Bias Remarks Legal Education, Feminist Epistemology, and the Socratic Method Susan H.

Mimicking the Words, but Missing the Message: the Misuse of Cultural Feminist Themes in Religion and Family Law Jurisprudence |
35 Boston College Law Review Rev. 1 (December, 1993) |
In the nineteenth century, images of religion and the family, like images of women, were carefully constructed to represent ideals that were the exact opposite of the commonly accepted characteristics of capitalism. Both the church and the family provided a retreat from the competitive atmosphere of the marketplace- a haven in a heartless world...; Search Snippet: ...The Words, but Missing the Message: the Misuse of Cultural Feminist Themes in Religion and Family Law Jurisprudence [Fnd] Linda J... |

Myth, Stereotype, and the Rape of Black Women |
4 UCLA Women's Law Journal 87 (Fall, 1993) |
bein alive & bein a woman & bein colored is a metaphysical dilemma When I first heard that heavyweight champion Mike Tyson had been charged with rape, it was easy to decide that more likely than not he was guilty. It wasn't difficult to believe that a man with a history of violent and sexually offensive behavior could be guilty of such a crime.

Prostitution and Civil Rights |
1 Michigan Journal of Gender & Law 13 (1993) |
The gap between the promise of civil rights and the real lives of prostitutes is an abyss which swallows up prostituted women. To speak of prostitution and civil rights in one breath moves the two into one world, at once exposing and narrowing the distance between them. Women in prostitution are denied every imaginable civil right in every...; Search Snippet: ...Is Basic.

Prostitution Is Cruelty and Abuse to Women and Children |
1 Michigan Journal of Gender & Law 91 (1993) |
Each day I rise to take up the truly good fight to stop the harm to women in prostitution. I long for complete liberation of all oppressed peoples. I passionately believe that the work I do to end prostitution is revolutionary. No one deserves to be used and abused, and that is the universal experience of prostituted women and children. It is also...; Search Snippet: ...From Academia to Activism Prostitution Is Cruelty and Abuse to Women and Children [Fnd1] [Fnr1] Susan Kay Hunter [Fna1] Copyright ©... |

Prostitution: Where Racism & Sexism Intersect |
1 Michigan Journal of Gender & Law 81 (1993) |
Black women find themselves in a unique and extremely difficult position in our society. They are forced to deal with the oppression that arises from being Black in a white-supremacist culture and the oppression that arises from being female in a male-supremacist culture. In order to examine the experience of being Black and female, this paper...; Search Snippet: ...Contention Between White, Child-protection Workersand Often White, Battered- Women's Advocateswho View Spanking as Child Abuse, and African- American Mothers Who Believe it Is an Appropriate and Necessary Form... |
