Justice Doesn’t Just Happen

So, I just got back from LSRJ’s killer National Leadership Retreat, Justice Doesn’t Just Happen. And let me say, it rocked. It was an important — and powerful — reminder that reproductive justice is not going to just fall in our laps. We’ve got to make it happen. And we can. Some suggestions for how:* An event educating your law school community about abstinence only, perhaps with a mock abstinence-only class.* A panel on the use of shackles on women who give birth while incarcerated (made easy with one of LSRJ’s easy events in an envelope).* For those of you who are alums, taking on a pro-bono case representing a young woman seeking a judicial bypass of a state parental notification requirement before she can get an abortion.And stay tuned in to this blog for more ideas and reactions, as well as exciting guest-posts from others in the LSRJ community.

    Three cheers for an amazing national conference. It was such an inspiring and energizing experience to hear our incredible speakers and, more importantly, meet so many students who are rocking the world of student activism in the reproductive justice movement!
