A powerful minority in our society is attacking vulnerable outsiders and assaulting the rule of law. Lawyers belong on the front lines of defence. Where do you stand?
Thank you, Jordan. You’ve expressed a position that we, the privileged class, are reluctant to speak. I join you in standing for “equal Justice for all.” May we all be as committed as you have chosen to be.
We must look deeply inside ourselves and we must take action -- particularly in the domains we as leaders control and those as colleagues we influence. My frame of reference has become Diversity through design (eliminate impact of structural bias thus providing equal opportunity), inclusion through rigorous deployment, implementation & enforcement of design without deviation), and equity will result. Your question remains -- what will I do?

Terrific piece Jordan. A reminder of the privilege many (most) in the legal community enjoy and of the need for self-reflection.
