Mathew O. Tobriner Memorial Lecture: Dahlia Lithwick

Lady Justice: Women, the Law, and the Battle to Save America
Lady Justice celebrates the tireless efforts, legal ingenuity, and indefatigable spirit of the women lawyers who worked to uphold democracy, dignity, and equality in the face of assault during the Trump years. The American journey toward greater freedom and justice for all might have died outright with Justice Ginsburg were it not for the millions of women lawyers moving boldly and quickly to organize and fight. These women upheld not only civil rights but the justice system itself, through the crucible of the Trump administration and now beyond. They fought for pregnant migrant teens at the borders and brought consequences to white supremacists who invaded Charlottesville. They fought for the right to vote and for the right to bodily autonomy. They showed up and did the work without accolades or fanfare. In the grand scheme of American history, these women, using the tools of law and organizing, gave the country the immeasurable gift of becoming something better, more tolerant, and more just.
