  • Reconstituting the Future: the Equality Amendment Catharine A
    THE YALE LAW JOURNAL FORUM DECEMBER 26 , 2019 Reconstituting the Future: The Equality Amendment Catharine A. MacKinnon & Kimberlé W. Crenshaw abstract. A new constitutional amendment embodying a substantive intersectional equality analysis aims to rectify the founding U.S. treatment of race and sex and additional hierarchical social inequalities. Historical and doctrinal context and critique show why this step is urgently needed. A dra� of the amendment is offered. “unto the Seventh Generation . ” Iroquois Law of Peace1 A new constitutional amendment offers a new beginning. The equality par- adigm proposed here recognizes the failures of what is, turns away from 1. This phrase is considered common to multiple traditions. Though it does not appear exactly in the Iroquois Great Law of Peace, the notion of fealty to future generations is written there in symbols on wampum.

The most widely cited iteration of the Seventh Generation concept was expressed by the former head of the Six Nations of the Iroquois Con- federacy, Leon Shenandoah (d. 1996): “Look behind you.

NORTH CAROLINA LAW REVIEW [Vol. 33 state corporation receives the same benefits and protection as intra- state vendors.20 If such an analysis is correct, the decision should have little prac- tical effect upon the present administration and collection of use taxes,21 because the way will have been left open to impose tax collecting obli- gations on foreign corporations which make deliveries into a taxing state after encroaching upon its markets by inducing (e.g., by direct advertising, mail and telephone solicitation, etc.) its customers to cross the state line for tax-saving purposes. On the other hand, if this decision means that such corporations may now escape liability, its effect will no doubt be to increase the number of merchants seeking to capitalize on the sales tax of neighboring states at the expense of the local market, thereby further increasing the difficulties of adminis- tration and collection of the use tax.

  • Why the Equal Rights Amendment Would Endanger Women's Equality
    FORDE-MAZRUI_03_17_21 (DO NOT DELETE) 3/17/2021 6:35 PM WHY THE EQUAL RIGHTS AMENDMENT WOULD ENDANGER WOMEN’S EQUALITY: LESSONS FROM COLORBLIND CONSTITUTIONALISM KIM FORDE-MAZRUI* ABSTRACT The purpose of the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) to those who drafted it and those who worked for nearly a century to see it ratified, is women’s equality. The ERA may be on the cusp of ratification depending on congressional action and potential litigation. Its supporters continue to believe the ERA would advance women’s equality. Their belief, however, may be gravely mistaken. The ERA would likely endanger women’s equality. The reason is that the ERA would likely prohibit government from acting “on account of sex” and, therefore, from acting on account of or in response to sex inequality. Put simply, government would have to ignore sex, including sex inequality. Consider race. The purpose of the Equal Protection Clause (EPC) Copyright © 2021 Kim Forde-Mazrui. * Professor of Law and Mortimer M. Caplin Professor of Law, University of Virginia.

STATE REGULATION AND THE DORMANT COMMERCE CLAUSE Daniel A. Farber* The commerce clause empowers Congress to "regulate Com­ merce with foreign Nations, and among the several States, and with the Indian Tribes."I Although it speaks only of congressional power, the clause has been interpreted to empower the federal courts to enjoin state laws that interfere unduly with interstate commerce.z Since the Marshall Court, the Supreme Court has continually modified its definition of the judicial role in overseeing state regula­ tion.3 The Court's current view of the so-called "dormant" com­ merce clause, in a nutshell, is as follows.4 State regulations having a discriminatory effect on interstate commerce are subject to stringent judicial scrutiny even if the discrimination was inadvertent.S On the other hand, regulations that burden interstate commerce without discriminating against it are subject to a less rigorous balancing test:6 a state law that burdens local and interstate commerce equally will be upheld if the law's local benefits outweigh the burden * Professor of Law, University of Minnesota.

Berger* INTRODUCTION The word “feminism” means different things to its many supporters (and undoubtedly, to its detractors). For some, it refers to the historic struggle: first to realize the right of women to vote and then to eliminate explicit discrimination against women from the nation’s laws.1 For others, it is a political movement, the purpose of which is to raise awareness about and to overcome past and present oppression faced by women.2 For still others, it is a philosophy—a system of thought—and a community of belief3 centering on attaining political, social, and economic equality for women, men, and people of any gender.4 * Bridget Crawford is a Professor of Law at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University.

Moran* I cannot imagine a feminist evolution leading to radicalchange in the private/politicalrealm of gender that is not rooted in the conviction that all women's lives are important, that the lives of men cannot be understoodby burying the lives of women; and that to make visible the full meaning of women's experience, to reinterpretknowledge in terms of that experience, is now the most important task of thinking.1 America has always been a very married country. From early colonial times until quite recently, rates of marriage in our nation have been high-higher in fact than in Britain and western Europe.2 Only in 1960 did this pattern begin to change as American men and women married later or perhaps not at all.3 Because of the dominance of marriage in this country, permanently single people-whether male or female-have been not just statistical oddities but social conundrums.
