The Thelton E. Henderson Center for Social Justice (Berkeley Law) presents its fall symposium, ReProducing Justice, Nov. 12-13, 2009.
The regulation of bodies, sexualities, and reproduction by the state has traditionally been addressed through a “reproductive rights” lens. In practice, however, the reproductive rights movement, with its emphasis on individual “choice” and rights to specific practices such as abortion, has neglected the needs and demands of people of color, poor people, and those whose bodies are marked as inappropriate or incapable of reproducing or enjoying sexuality. Now, a new generation of lawyers and activists, under the new framework of “reproductive justice,” seek to eradicate the reproductive oppressions that have exploited the bodies, sexualities, and reproduction of our most marginalized individuals and communities for decades.The reproductive justice movement — a movement recognizing that power inequities inherent in our society’s institutions, environment, economics and culture affect people’s abilities to exercise self-determination in their reproductive lives — is burgeoning, yet legal scholarship, pedagogy, and advocacy lags behind. We are inviting you to participate in the conference and help us to galvanize a new generation of lawyers and legal scholars who are committed to uniting all those whose reproductive agency is endangered by enforcement of oppressive stereotypes and economic and cultural inequities. The conference will bring activists together with scholars from within law and outside law to address a host of interconnecting social justice and human rights issues that affect people’s bodies, sexuality, and reproduction.
The event is cosponsored by Law Students for Reproductive Justice (Boalt Chapter & National Office), Berkeley Journal of Gender, Law and Justice, Berkeley Law Critical Race Scholars Society, Law Students of African Descent, Women of Color Collective. mw

Rutgers School of Law - Newark, Women’s Rights Law Reporter would like to introduce the topic of our Fall 2009 Symposium, occurring on Friday, November 13, 2009: Women In Economics, Where are We Today?
This symposium is focused on the recent downturn in our economy, and how our latest economic crisis has had an effect on women. We invite discussion on topics such as: women in the workplace today; women’s positions in our economic sphere as it stands today and, possibly, as compared with ten years ago; women’s ability to obtain loans for either small businesses, homes, or the like; the bailout and its effect on women; all current legal issues associated with women and economics, and finally, differing feminist perspectives on where the women of today are headed in the future in terms of this economy. This is a fairly broad topic, but our main concern to answer the question of where this recent economic crisis has left women today, and the legal battles that they may be facing in the future.
We invite proposals for articles, essays and book reviews in conjunction with this symposium topic, however, such proposals are not required for participation in this event. Also, publication of any article, essay or book review is subject to the quality of the piece, and is within the sole discretion of our editors.
We welcome brief submissions of 250 words or less as to what issues you would be able to speak on concerning our Fall 2009 Symposium. I expect to get back to potential speakers as soon as possible, as this event if fast approaching. Please feel free to contact me. Christine Burke, Symposium Editor (burke.christine5 [at] gmail.com).
