    “No Job For a Woman:” The Women Who Fought To Report World War II TABLE OF CONTENTS A. SUMMARY This is a request for $625,000 for the Production phase of’ ‘No Job For a Woman’: The Women Who Fought to Report World War II, a one-hour documentary for public television focusing on the story of the women war reporters of World War II, the obstacles they encountered, and their role in contributing to a new way of war reporting. The project received an NEH Consultation Grant in 2002, an NEH Planning Grant in 2004, and an NEH Scripting Grant in 2006. The project has also been selected to be part of the Endowment’s “We the People” initiative because it explores “significant events and themes in our nation’s history and culture” and advances “knowledge of the principles that define America.” During the Production phase, we will expand our fundraising campaign to finance the production, projected to cost approximately $735,000. The non-profit sponsor for this film is Women Make Movies. B. SUBJECT AND HUMANITIES THEMES “Bullets don’t discriminate. The dangers are basically the same whether you are male or female,” says NPR’s Iraq war correspondent, Anne Garrels. Today, a woman -- CNN’s Christiane Amanpour -- is possibly the most famous war reporter worldwide. While women reporting war may seem commonplace now, their arrival in the profession is the result of nearly 150 years of struggle and hard work. Many of these battles were fought in the newsrooms and trenches of World War II. During the course of World War II nearly 140 women reporters were accredited to cover events overseas out of a total of approximately 1700 accredited reporters overall.

    Thick Enough to Stop a Bullet: Civil Protection Orders, Social Media, and Free Speech

    THICK ENOUGH TO STOP A BULLET: CIVIL PROTECTION ORDERS, SOCIAL MEDIA, AND FREE SPEECH Benjamin Paul Bennett* ABSTRACT Domestic violence occurs in private and public spaces, including the virtual spaces social media platforms create. This Note examines the role domestic violence Civil Protection Orders can play in regulating social media behavior. Contrary to scholars who have argued that injunctions and criminal statutes should rarely, if ever, prohibit “speech about” an individual, this Note argues that Civil Protection Orders prohibiting an abuser from mentioning his victim over social media are appropriate in some circumstances. In examining what circumstances justify such orders, and how those orders should be issued and enforced, this Note considers constraints set by First Amendment free speech principles and a desire to combat mass incarceration. * As a Managing Editor of this publication, I am unusually aware of the number of people who deserve credit for the quality of this work. Thank you all, particularly Tess Dernbach and Rachel Ramirez-Guest. Thank you to my faculty adviser, Jeremy Kessler, for your collaboration and guidance, and for the greatest gift a note mentor can give a student: the ongoing, sincere impression that what I had to say mattered. Thank you also to Professors Harold Edgar, Katherine Franke, and Dan Richman for brief but fruitful conversations at various stages of this paper's development. This article is inspired by, and dedicated to, the domestic violence advocates I worked with at Bread for the City, namely, Tracy Davis, Julia Saladino, and Emily Petrino. Hope this helps. 2019] Thick Enough to Stop a Bullet 229 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction .......................................................................

  • Meeting Moment

    Meeting Moment

    MEETING THE MOMENT OCTOBER 12 OCTOBER 21 GLOBALCONFERENCE.ORG MILKEN INSTITUTE MEETING THE MOMENT The Milken Institute Global Conference convenes the best minds in the world to tackle some of its most stubborn challenges. Our commitment to the power of ideas has set this event apart for more than two decades. It is a unique experience in which individuals with the capital, power, and influence to change the world connect with those whose expertise and creativity are reinventing health, technology, philanthropy, industry, and media. The 23rd annual Global Conference will center on the theme of “Meeting the Moment.” In addition to the wide-ranging content for which the event is known, the agenda will address the dual crises of a global pandemic and social injustice, calling us all to reflect on what matters most. These events are reshaping our reality, making clear the urgent need for intersectional thinking, cross-sector partnership, and international leadership. While this year’s flagship event may look different, the Milken Institute’s community and impact potential remain the same. Join us as we work to build a healthier and more just world for all. MILKEN INSTITUTE Welcome to the 23rd Annual Milken Institute Global Conference 2020 has been an unprecedented year by any measure: a once-in-a-century pandemic has tragically taken the lives of more than one million people; a volatile economy has resulted in the closure of more than 3 million U.S. small businesses and put millions out of work; and finally, we have come face-to-face with a long-smoldering reckoning on social justice and society’s ability to create truly equal opportunities for all.
