Just Jobs, Anita Bernstein

University of Baltimore Law Review

Activists who pursue gender justice in the United States have always focused on work, both the paid and unpaid kind. In her magisterial Sex Equality, Catharine MacKinnon chose "Work" as her first section, or illustrative locus, in the chapter titled "Sex and Sexism."' At the workplace, MacKinnon wrote, begins "the mosttraveled terrain" of sex equality law.2 Unpaid work fills the waking hours of most women. Women's labor makes the domestic economies of nation-states possible, even though it continues almost entirely uncounted in measurements of national output.' Injustices in both categories of work, the paid and unpaid, buttress each other.4

University of Baltimore Law Review

Chai Feldblum:

I'm thrilled to be here. I can't say how cool it is to be at a law school that has a Center on Applied Feminism. How many law schools have that?

Millenial Feminisms: How The Newest Generation Of Lawyers May Change The Conversation About Gender Equality In The Workplace, Meghan M. Boone

University of Baltimore Law Review

Much has been written about the "Millennial generation" and how they are re-shaping the modem workplace, including the legal profession.
