Proceed With Caution: Hate Speech Regulation In Japan, Junko Kotani
Proceed With Caution: Hate Speech Regulation In Japan, Junko Kotani
UC Law Constitutional Quarterly
The Diet of Japan enacted the Hate Speech Elimination Act in 2016 amid heated debates over the appropriate role that the government should play in confronting the vulgar racist hate speech that had been permeating the country. The Act, however, does not criminalize or make illegal hate speech and is thus criticized by Professor Craig Martin. This Article argues that while the principles of freedom of speech under the Constitution of Japan may tolerate criminalization of narrowly defined hate speech, one should be cautious in advocating for immediate criminalization of racist hate speech in the country. This Article provides an …
Rluipa And Method-Of-Execution Claims After Glossip: The Free Exercise Exception To Glossip's Known-And-Available Alternative Requirement, Griffin Estes
UC Law Constitutional Quarterly
Since the Court's decision in Glossip v. Gross, a capital inmate has the burden of proposing an alternative method-of-execution to be administered in lieu of the statutorily proscribed method if the inmate believes that the method-of-execution to be used in their execution would violate the Eighth Amendment's prohibition on "cruel and unusual punishments." Many inmates have specific religious beliefs and it is possible that a condemned inmate might have a religious objection to capital punishment. The Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act ("RLUIPA") represents Congress's sensitivity toward the religious liberties of inmates. This Note applies the RLUIPA framework to …

Employment Status Of Uber And Lyft Drivers: Unsettlingly Settled, Jillian Kaltner
Employment Status Of Uber And Lyft Drivers: Unsettlingly Settled, Jillian Kaltner
UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice
Uber and Lyft drivers are part of a vast pool of workers in the new economy who exist in the legal grey area between independent contractors and employees. Because these workers are currently classified as independent contractors, they are without the protections and benefits that are guaranteed to employees by law. This note delineates the work risks facing Uber and Lyft drivers and various approaches scholars have used to attempt to address their employment status. It analyzes the driver’s employment status using the widely accepted Economic Realities test, and discusses the roadblocks these workers will likely face on the road …
The First Pride Was A Riot: How Queer Activism Has Partnered With Police To Hurt The Community’S Most Vulnerable, Delaney Nevius
The First Pride Was A Riot: How Queer Activism Has Partnered With Police To Hurt The Community’S Most Vulnerable, Delaney Nevius
UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice
Summarizing the history and development of queer rights activism in San Francisco, this article reflects upon the legal goals of the queer community in San Francisco from 1960 to the present, observing a movement away from law enforcement resistance and towards collaboration and placing the community’s most vulnerable, queer people of color, at risk. The author outlines and problematizes three potential legal goals for the queer community moving forward: a constitutional claim of police misconduct, hate crime legislation, and police reform tactics.

Courts Rule Too Narrowly Regarding The Right To Wear Religious Clothing In Public, Kendyl L. Green
Courts Rule Too Narrowly Regarding The Right To Wear Religious Clothing In Public, Kendyl L. Green
UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice
For numerous years, state and institutional rules have barred individuals from wearing religious clothing. Specifically, this issue has arisen in the military, the workplace, police departments, prisons, and public schools. Wearing religious clothing, particularly head coverings, is a vital aspect of Judaism, Islam, and Sikhism. The United States Constitution upholds the right to religious liberty in the First and Fourteenth Amendments. Additionally, the Religious Freedom and Restoration Act of 1993 (RFRA), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA) statutes also protect religious freedom. Below, cases are examined that …
Romance Or Sexual Assault? Ambiguity Of Sexual Consent In The Media And How Yes Means Yes Legislation Can Help, Courtney Anne Groszhans
Romance Or Sexual Assault? Ambiguity Of Sexual Consent In The Media And How Yes Means Yes Legislation Can Help, Courtney Anne Groszhans
UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice
Before the reckoning of Me Too and the Time's Up Movement, legislation was being passed trying to prevent the numbers of sexual assault on college campuses with the Yes Means Yes legislation. Yes Means Yes Legislation often received the critique that people would have to sign a contract before engaging in sexual activity. However, upon reflection, a part of why Yes Means Yes sounds so severe is the American public is bombarded with an idea of romance in Hollywood movies that are arguably non-consensual and could be viewed as illegal depending on the targeted audience. Below these messages are further …
Speech On Campus: How America's Crisis In Confidence Is Eroding Free Speech Values, Joseph Russomanno
Speech On Campus: How America's Crisis In Confidence Is Eroding Free Speech Values, Joseph Russomanno
UC Law Constitutional Quarterly
Speech on America's university and college campuses has been a long-time issue, from classrooms to open spaces, from efforts to protect students to approaches toward invited speakers. These issues especially surfaced in the early twenty-first century, and predominantly in response to invited speakers. Several incidents in early 2017-some involving violent protests-moved these issues into an analytical spotlight. This Article examines efforts to silence controversial oncampus speakers. It does so first through the lens of free speech doctrine and how it addresses this development. Second, this Article seeks to explain this increasing intolerance for the expression of ideas: an escalating crisis …
Reviving The Voting Rights Act Post-Shelby County: A New Standard For Vote Denial And Voter Id Law Analysis Under Section Two, Elizabeth Cermak
Reviving The Voting Rights Act Post-Shelby County: A New Standard For Vote Denial And Voter Id Law Analysis Under Section Two, Elizabeth Cermak
UC Law Constitutional Quarterly
Since the United States Supreme Court struck down section 4(b) of the Voting Rights Act ("VRA") and effectively disabled its section 5 enforcement provision in Shelby County v. Holder, States across the country have passed and updated election laws with far less accountability than during the pre-Shelby era. Among the most controversial are "voter ID" laws, which require voters to present identification before casting a ballot. Prior to 2013, section 5 of the VRA had been used to challenge these laws in federal proceedings in Texas, Florida, South Carolina, and New Hampshire. The combined decisions of Shelby and Crawford v. …

The History Of Japanese Racism, Japanese American Redress, And The Dangers Associated With Government Regulation Of Hate Speech, Hiroshi Fukurai, Alice Yang
UC Law Constitutional Quarterly
This Article analyzes the historical roots of the Japanese government's rhetoric of racial supremacy that merged with nationalist agendas to rationalize and promote Japanese colonial aggression, military ventures, and brutal rule in Asia in the first half of the twentieth century. Next, this Article examines the movement in the U.S. to obtain redress for Japanese Americans who suffered mass removal and incarceration during World War II. This Article explores why grassroots activism and political lobbying succeeded in obtaining the passage of American redress legislation in 1988 and the possible lessons of this campaign for other victims of government policies. Finally, …
How The Lone Star State's Refusal To Expand Medicaid Is Leaving Pregnant Women More Alone Than Ever, Naomi Strauss
How The Lone Star State's Refusal To Expand Medicaid Is Leaving Pregnant Women More Alone Than Ever, Naomi Strauss
UC Law Constitutional Quarterly
Texas's maternal mortality rates are alarmingly high, reflecting a larger trend across the United States. By analyzing structural and social factors, this Note suggests that increasingly restrictive access to family planning and women's health clinics across Texas has contributed to this public health crisis. Further complicating matters, the limited availability of quality maternal health data makes it hard to disentangle causes and effects. In order to correct this disturbing trend which stands in stark contrast to the rest of the developed world-states should expand Medicaid coverage and access to services for all. California, for example, has implemented programs, which have …

The Behavioral Economics Of Multilevel Marketing, Heidi Liu
The Behavioral Economics Of Multilevel Marketing, Heidi Liu
UC Law Business Journal
Multilevel marketing companies (MLMs) - sales organizations that compensate independent consultants based on the sales and recruitment of other consultants - form a significant part of the American economy. Yet, MLMs provide little information to regulators and potential participants regarding potentially material information. Although MLMs are often compared to pyramid schemes, consultants argue that participation in a MLM allows them to make money outside of the traditional full-time labor force. This paper examines the law, economics, and psychology of MLMs, suggesting that MLMs may draw on prospective consultants' cognitive biases in persuading consultants to join and continue a MLM. Consultants …

Participating Equally: Using Tax Policy To Improve Female Workforce And Management Participation In The 21st Century, Katherine E. Smalley
UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice
Examining the question as to why there are so few women in the upper ranks of corporate America, this article proposes the use of the Tax Code as a powerful tool that can be used to promote social objectives. This article seeks to demonstrate ways in which the Tax Code previously has influenced behavior, and to provide a possible way to use the Tax Code that would positively impact top female workforce representation.
Intersectional Resistance: A Case Study On Crimmigration And Lessons For Organizing In The Trump Era, Robin Pomerenke
Intersectional Resistance: A Case Study On Crimmigration And Lessons For Organizing In The Trump Era, Robin Pomerenke
UC Law SF Journal on Gender and Justice
Increasingly, the federal government has sought to utilize local law enforcement’s proximity to and intimacy with local communities to detain and deport immigrants. The resultant growth of crimmigration—the simultaneous enforcement of immigration law and criminal law—has sparked a large-scale social movement in California over the last ten years. This movement has built connections and solidarities among actors across communities and issue areas, including the faith community, the legal community, [etc.]. Using the response to crimmigration as a case study, this Note examines the potentials for intersectional resistance. What role has an awareness of intersectionality played in the fight against crimmigration? …
