The Women's Right To Participate In The Game Of Baseball, David Fintz
The Women's Right To Participate In The Game Of Baseball, David Fintz
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that women have historically been excluded from participating in baseball due to gender discrimination, which violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment and Title IX. It critiques the narrow interpretation of state action in cases like Magill v. Avonworth Baseball Conference and advocates for broadening this doctrine to include youth organizations. The author proposes legal reforms, such as amending Little League charters, to ensure girls' inclusion in baseball programs. By addressing these legal barriers, the article suggests that girls can achieve greater opportunities in baseball, following the success of female athletes in other sports.

Rwandan Genocide: Taking Notes From The Holocaust Reparations Movement, Yael Weitz
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note examines the failure to provide adequate reparations to rape victims of the Rwandan genocide, drawing parallels with the Holocaust reparations movement.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) is proposed as a potential solution, despite jurisdictional limitations, through cooperation with the ICTR to address the urgent needs of Rwandan rape victims.

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article presents a longitudinal study of Yale Law School graduates from 1970 to 1999, analyzing their career paths, job satisfaction, and gender differences in professional experiences. It highlights the prevalence of career transitions, with many graduates moving from private practice to academia, government, or public interest roles.

The analysis underscores the importance of understanding career dynamics to improve support systems for law graduates.

Reinventing Eugenics: Reproductive Choice And Law Reform After World War Ii, Mary Ziegler
Reinventing Eugenics: Reproductive Choice And Law Reform After World War Ii, Mary Ziegler
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article argues that eugenic ideologies did not disappear from American law after World War II but instead evolved and were repackaged in response to shifting political and social norms. While the association with Nazi practices led to the decline of overtly coercive eugenic laws, eugenic principles persisted through new strategies, such as voluntary sterilization and population control initiatives. The article contends that the concept of reproductive choice became a key tool for redefining eugenic goals, allowing them to influence law and policy in more subtle ways.

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note critiques the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Ledbetter v. Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., arguing that it unjustly limits the ability of employees, particularly women, to seek redress for pay discrimination under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The decision held that a claim for pay discrimination must be filed within 180 days of the initial discriminatory pay-setting decision, even if the employee did not discover the disparity until later. The note contends that this ruling ignores the reality that pay discrimination is often hidden and cumulative, making it difficult for employees to identify …
