Description:

Professor Jocelyn Getgen-Kestenbaum with students from the Human Rights and Atrocity Prevention (HRAP) Clinic in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil Human Rights professor Jocelyn Getgen Kestenbaum created 10 new curricular modules for classrooms on how the law perpetrates structural discrimination—and how the law can be used to break it down. “The goal is to confront the law’s—and lawyer’s—role in perpetuating structural discrimination and violence against identity groups in the U.S. We decided to create open-access guides that are easy to use and adapt across disciplines to aid law professors across the country, helping students grapple with these big issues.” Cardozo is the birthplace of The Innocence Project, one of the most transformative ideas in legal education.

I call on the Cardozo community to stand as one to condemn racism and reaffirm our commitment to the paramount value of equality under the law for all. At Cardozo, we are proud of our past leadership on social justice issues; freeing the wrongly incarcerated, advocating for reforms of the criminal justice and immigration systems, and using the lessons learned from the Holocaust to protect and advocate for victims of genocide. We have so much more work to do. U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and Canada Supreme Court Justice Rosalie Abella Visit Cardozo U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor and Canada Supreme Court Justice Rosalie Abella Visit Cardozo “Most people think that the law is black and white. The first thing you realize is that it’s not,” Justice Sotomayor said, addressing Cardozo Law students at a visit to the school. “The law is not moral justice. Every case that comes before us has a winner and a loser. I try to remember that.”
