Susman, Susman Godfrey 2 | 2013–14 ACS BIENNIAL REPORT message from CHAIR OF THE BOARD AND PRESIDENT Dear Friends and Supporters, For the last 13 years, the American Constitution Society has worked to challenge the decades’ long conservative activist legal movement by uniting dedicated and energetic members of the progressive legal community to protect America's fundamental constitutional principles, including that most basic tenet: that the law should be a force to improve the lives of all. The lynchpin of our success during this time is our wide reaching network of lawyer and student chapters. These more than 200 ACS chapters across the country have both helped promote a much needed discussion of the Constitution's true meaning and served as a pipeline for developing the next generation of progressive legal leaders. Over the last several years, ACS chapter leaders have used the growing ACS network ACS Board of Directors Chair David M. Brodsky to be elected or appointed to state and federal courts, be elected to office, take on significant pro bono legal positions, or join the ranks of academe and private practice. ACS has become a critical voice in a battle of ideas between those on the right who see the Constitution through a cramped and self-serving lens and those like ACS who understand the Constitution is not a static document frozen in the 18th century, but one containing fundamental values of individual rights and liberties, genuine equality, access to justice and democracy to be enjoyed by all Americans, not a select few. Through thousands of live events that ACS and our chapters host annually across the country; ACS publications, which serve as an important source for advocates, government officials, practicing lawyers, students, scholars, and the media; op-eds that educate those outside of the legal community on our important issues; and our webinars and ACS President trainings that educate the next generation of progressive attorneys, we are seeding Caroline Fredrickson the ground to reclaim and reinvigorate our shared understanding of a progressive Constitution. Over the next two years and beyond, ACS will remain tireless in our efforts to protect our constitutional values. We look forward to your continued support. Sincerely, DAVID M.

  • Building a More Inclusive Federal Judiciary
    GETTY WATSON IMAGES/JIM Building a More Inclusive Federal Judiciary By Danielle Root, Jake Faleschini, and Grace Oyenubi October 2019 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Building a More Inclusive Federal Judiciary By Danielle Root, Jake Faleschini, and Grace Oyenubi October 2019 Contents 1 Introduction and summary 4 Part I: The federal judiciary’s diversity problem 13 Part II: Diversity on the federal bench matters 22 Part III: Recommendations 40 Conclusion 41 About the authors and acknowledgements 42 Methodology 43 Endnotes Introduction and summary Federal judges wield immense power. Each day, they make decisions that affect people’s livelihoods, well-being, and fundamental rights. They serve as a check on the executive and legislative branches. This balanced system is designed to ensure that lawmakers and the president adhere to the United States’ constitution and established laws. Federal judges serve for life and therefore can determine the nation’s laws for generations. This is particularly true today as federal judges are serving longer terms.1 In order to function properly, however, the federal judiciary needs the public to trust that the institution and the decisions it renders are legitimate. Otherwise, judicial rulings would be virtually impossible to enforce. Instead of being the final arbitrator of the law, the judiciary would take on a mere advisory role. Many people—including legal scholars, judicial commentators, and legal practitio- ners—have raised concerns about the federal judiciary’s current legitimacy crisis. Members of the public increasingly perceive federal courts as unfair, particularly to underrepresented groups, and as entities that favor corporate interests over the public good. In particular, federal judges—especially Supreme Court justices—are increas- ingly viewed as political actors, while the courts are viewed as partisan institutions.

  • Annual Review 2004 - 2005
    Annual Review 2004 - 2005 www.rapoportcenter.org From the Director In the summer of 2004, the Bernard and Audre Rapoport Foundation awarded a five-year grant to the University of Texas School of Law to create a human rights center. As the first year of the Bernard and Audre Rapoport Center for Human Rights and Justice comes to a close, this Annual Review provides us an opportunity to reflect on and share with our many friends and supporters the Center’s work over the past year. We have made great strides toward our mission: to build a multidisciplinary community engaged in the study and practice of human rights that promotes the economic and political enfranchisement of marginalized individuals and groups both locally and globally. We officially launched the Center with our conference entitled “Working Borders: Linking Debates about Insourcing and Outsourcing of Capital and Labor” in February, but the Center was by then fully operational. Three second-year law students had been named “Human Rights Scholars” and were working hard to help administer and promote the Center. The Transnational Worker Rights Clinic was up and running, and the Immigration Law Clinic was in the midst of another busy Mission Statement year. Combined, the clinics provided opportunities for nearly thirty students to provide legal representation to about 150 of of the Bernard and the most marginalized individuals in Central Texas. COURTESYPHOTO WYATT MCSPADDEN Audre Rapoport In addition to the Working Borders conference, we hosted a workshop on indigenous and Black Center for land rights claims in Latin America and brought in six speakers through our Human Rights Happy Hour lecture series.
