  • Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg
    VOLUME 134 JANUARY 2021 NUMBER 3 © 2021 by The Harvard Law Review Association MEMORIAM: JUSTICE RUTH BADER GINSBURG The editors of the Harvard Law Review respectfully offer this collec- tion of tributes to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Brenda Feigen∗ Ruth Bader Ginsburg changed all our lives by profoundly influenc- ing the law that had encouraged sex discrimination in the United States for centuries. I am writing now in tribute to her. In the nineteenth century, the Supreme Court ruled that women had neither the right to practice law1 nor the right to vote.2 In the mid- twentieth century, the Court approved “beneficial” practices by states making women’s service on juries optional3 and approved Michigan’s law preventing women from working in bars unless a male relative was present when they were working.4 In 1970, while some of us were joining the call of the women’s liber- ation movement to march in protest of outrageous sex discrimination, Ruth and her husband Marty, a tax lawyer, decided to represent Charles Moritz, who lived alone with his elderly mother and had tried to obtain a tax deduction for wages paid to her caregiver.5 The Tax Court had said that type of deduction was available only “to a woman, a widower ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––– ∗ J.D. 1969, Harvard Law School. Ms. Feigen directed the ACLU’s Women’s Rights Project with then-Professor Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She was National Vice President for Legislation of NOW and a cofounder of the National Women’s Political Caucus and of Ms. Magazine. She au- thored Not One of the Boys: Living Life as a Feminist (2000), republished in electronic format twenty years later with a new edition forthcoming.

  • A Note from Board President Veres
    A Note from Board President Veres This has been a challenging summer across our state, with the recent rise in COVID tied to the Delta variant and wildfire season starting early, but it has also been a rewarding one for the future of community colleges in Los Angeles and throughout our state. I am particularly proud of our students, who succeeded against all odds and demonstrated their tremendous resilience. Furthermore, some went above and beyond to advocate for their fellow students, which produced some significant legislative victories that will ensure equity and access to top-of-the-line education for years to come. One notable item was a historic $6 billion broadband trailer bill signed by Governor Newsom last month, which will be a milestone in increasing access to connectivity to all Californians. Access to fast, affordable internet has been a fault line of inequality during this pandemic, and this bill is a significant step toward making this a reality for everyone. Technology is the driver of California’s innovation economy, and this trailer bill takes a long-term approach to ensuring this remains the case, building state-owned middle-distance fiber infrastructure and last-mile broadband connections to ensure every home and business has an equal opportunity to thrive and create on internet. As this past year has shown, reliable home infrastructure is also critical in ensuring our educational system is resilient during times of crisis, while increasing access to coursework for students who have physical or geographical challenges in attending school regularly. At LACCD, many of our students do not have reliable internet access, which is another way inequality can have an increasing effect in an economy where more jobs require technological proficiency.

    FLYLEAF All Odds Against Them AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Bruce C. Labs for the degree of Doctor of Education in Learning, Leadership & Community presented May, 2019 Title: All Odds Against Them: The Superintendent’s Leadership in Rapid and Sustained System Improvement in Small, Rural, Impoverished, School Districts Abstract approved: Ann B. Berry Dissertation Committee Chair This research is an examination of the instructional leadership practices of effective rural superintendents who oversee school districts in small, rural school districts in the most northern New England states of Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont. The study looked at the successful leadership practices of school district superintendents who have maintained a path of growth and improvement in districts that were small, rural and impoverished, however, they have overcome these limiting factors to show improvement in student achievement and instruction. The purpose of this study was to identify these successful leadership practices and to compare them to those identified in the meta- analysis done by Marzano and Waters in 2009. It is important to discover why these All Odds Against Them districts improved and identify factors that might account for their success as compared to other districts with similar demographics. There is value in studying the leadership in schools that have needed improvement and become successful and sustained their turnaround over time. Such information will provide a model school leaders can learn from and replicate in their own efforts in future school reform. A multiple case study approach utilized several steps to gather information from four cases selected using the model proposed in a case study done by Masumoto and Brown- Welty in 2009.

  • Dr. Iliff's 2021 Newsletter/Rant
    Dr. Iliff’s 2021 Newsletter/Rant 2020, R.I.P: There. It’s over. Nevertheless, it should not surprise you that this year’s newsletter can’t escape examining the impact of The Disease Which Shall Not Be Named (TDWSNBN). So here goes. The Year of the Dog: “A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than it loves itself” said the Seinfeld of the 1800s, Josh Billings. He’s the same guy who said “a good reliable set of bowels is worth more than any amount of brains,” which many of you have heard quoted from me when your bowels were not performing up to expectations. But in this miserable year, dog adoptions are up 30%, and that is very good news. “It’s an ill wind that blows no good,” my grandmother often said, and “every cloud has a silver lining.” The silver lining of 2020 is that more people have Man’s Best Friend sharing their home. Along with that comes an average of 2500 extra steps per day, according to one study, and a persistent rise in oxytocin— the pleasure hormone— even in the absence of sex. I regret that Jim Ramberg, who for many years ran a Dog of the Year contest in the Topeka Capital-Journal (which, against all odds, his dog won every year) is not still around, because the contest would now be dominated by Gabby and Loki, my dogs, who are simply the best ever, with the exception of Double, my canine of adolescence, who would follow me onto the campus of KU and wait faithfully outside an old limestone building until I emerged, having ignored thousands of passing students until the time when I would enjoy her enthusiastic greeting.

  • GENERATIONS of WORK North Carolina’S Working People Stand Ready to Fix the Problems That the Pandemic Has So Starkly Revealed
    Curing What Ails Us How COVID-19 reveals what’s wrong with our economy and what working people are doing to fix it GENERATIONS OF WORK North Carolina’s working people stand ready to fix the problems that the pandemic has so starkly revealed By Patrick McHugh, Budget & Tax Center Research Manager, with Alexandra Forter Sirota, Budget & Tax Center Director, and Ana Pardo, NC Justice Center Workers’ Rights Policy Advocate orth Carolina’s history is rich with examples of working people organizing to demand dignity in the workplace and economic security for their families. From union Norganizing to strikes and protests, North Carolinians have long understood the value of working together to confront unsafe and inhumane conditions on the job. Particularly in the face of a global pandemic, it’s of vital importance to celebrate how working North Carolinians — past and present — have changed their lives for the better. GOING ON STRIKE Strikes are an extremely powerful way for working people to show their collective strength by withholding their work, disrupting the operations of an employer, or both. While often associated with unionized workforces, many groups of non-unionized working people in North Carolina have deployed strikes to push back against problems in their workplaces. General Textile Strike of 1934 North Carolinians played an underappreciated role in securing many of the basic protections that working people across the country enjoy today. The General Textile Strike of 1934 was the largest work stoppage in the United States at that point and played a pivotal role in the creation of the National Labor Relations Act.
