The Constitutionality Of Laws Forbidding Private Homosexual Conduct, Michigan Law Review
The Constitutionality Of Laws Forbidding Private Homosexual Conduct, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
The laws of forty-three states and the District of Columbia impose criminal penalties on consenting adults who engage in private homosexual conduct. Most of these laws are sodomy statutes, which also prohibit oral and anal intercourse between heterosexuals and sexual acts with animals. Two states have statutes explicitly limited to homosexual conduct. These statutes also prohibit nonconsensual homosexual activity and homosexual acts involving a minor, but this Note addresses only prohibitions on private consensual adult homosexual conduct.

Discriminatory Membership Policies In Federally Chartered Nonprofit Corporations, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
Since 1791 the United States has created federal corporations by specific acts of Congress. These corporations fall into three general types, including corporations organized in the District of Columbia, corporations that carry out a federal governmental or public function, and private nonprofit corporations that undertake educational, charitable, historical, cultural or similar purposes. About fifty groups comprise the third category, including the American National Red Cross, the Girl Scouts of America, the Boy Scouts of America, the United States Olympic Committee, the American Legion, the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States (VFW), and the Little League.

Cleveland State Law Review
This paper will analyze the competing considerations in America's struggle for true equality for all its people. The basic premise upon which the analysis will be made is that it is in the best interest of the country to achieve equality among the races, at every level of American society, as quickly as possible. This author views discrimination and the present effects of past discrimination, as experienced by black America, as an evil facing Americans of every color. The sooner this country can rid itself of the evil, the sooner it can be on its way to achieving a decent, …
The Infirmities Of Affirmative Action: The New York City Plan
The Infirmities Of Affirmative Action: The New York City Plan
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The regulations announced by Mayor John Lindsay that propose new contract bid regulations designed to eliminate discrimination in employment in New York City were implemented and are the basics of the city's present program. New York City's present affirmative action attempts to increase the number of minorities employed in city-financed construction projects. But, how viable are these programs in light of the expected attacks based on the federal preemption doctrine? Questions of due process and equal protection must be examined when affirmative action programs require contractors to make good faith efforts to meet these goals. Affirmative action programs are part …
Civil Rights - Discrimination In Placement Of Low-Rent Housing- Statute's Requirement That Locality's Governing Body Agree To Cooperate With Hud Used As A Shield To Protect Suburbs From Integration By Low Income Blacks
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The constitutionality of certain sections of the National Housing Act that required a community to consent to the construction of federally assisted low income housing was challenged. The plaintiffs alleged that the consent requirement gave white suburbs the power to bar this construction resulting in limited low incoming housing offered in predominantly black areas. Plaintiffs proposed that a new agreement between the City of Cleveland and the Cuyahoga Metropolitan Housing Authority be reached that would better reflect low income housing needs. At trial, the court rejected the plaintiff's contentions and on remand, the court held that absent a rational basis, …
