Calling out vs. Calling-in

This Book is Anti-Racist: 20 Lessons on How to Wake Up, Take Action and Do the Work by Tiffany Jewell. Available via MOBIUS request

This Book is Anti-Racist: 20 Lessons on How to Wake Up, Take Action and Do the Work by Tiffany Jewell. Available via MOBIUS request

Tiffany Jewell’s excellent book, “This Book is Anti-Racist: 20 Lessons on How to Wake Up, Take Action and Do the Work” offers a reflection process when you may have to confront racism. Jewell identifies two processes for confronting racist statements/behaviors: “calling out” or “calling in.” Calling someone out is an approach that holds a person publicly accountable. Calling Someone in when we set aside time to talk with someone about their offending statement/behavior.

Jewel offers a few reflections that may be helpful for instructors in any teaching situation:

Who has the power in this situation? The person I’m calling in/out, or me? (If you have the power in this situation, consider calling them in.)
Am I calling out a person or systemic behavior? (If you’re calling out systemic behavior or an institution, call them out.)
How much energy and emotional labor am I able to share right now? (If you don’t have the energy or aren’t willing to put in the emotional labor it takes to educate someone and work with them to change, consider calling them in with someone who can take on the work you are not able to do. I have a friend who helps me out when I don’t have the capacity to educate white people on racial oppression.)
Is this person likely to change their problematic behavior? (If they are not, call them out. If this is someone you’ve called in before and they’re still repeating their actions, call them out.)
Who is in the room? Who am I accountable to in this moment? Am I centering the needs of myself or the group? What will happen if I call this behavior out? What will happen if I call this person in?
What am I hoping to accomplish with this call-in or call-out?

Coercive Sterilization

Madrigal v. Quilligan 639 F.2d 789

Madrigal v. Quilligan was a civil rights class action lawsuit filed by 10 Mexican American women against the Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center for involuntary or forced sterilization. The plaintiffs involved in Madrigal v. Quilligan were residents of East Los Angeles, a predominantly Latinx population with inadequate medical and educational resources. Unauthorized sterilizations among Mexican women with minimal English proficiency rose at the County Medical Center during the 1970s. Among the victims were Dolores Madrigal, who claimed that doctors pressured her into signing a sterilization consent form while she was in labor, and Jovita Rivera, who signed the concession document without being counseled on the consequences of sterilization.

Madrigal v. Quilligan 639 F.2d 789

Although the hospital won the case, some progress was still made. Madrigal was able to help change the state laws to require Spanish translations of the sterilization booklet. They also were able to get the California Department of health to create a seventy-two hour waiting period for sterilization.

Disparate Impact

Dothard v. Rawlinson 433 U.S. 321, 97 S.Ct. 2720, 53 L.Ed.2d 786, 15 Fair Empl.Prac.Cas. (BNA) 10, 14 Empl. Prac. Dec. P 7632

Rawlinson (plaintiff), a 22-year-old woman with college training in correctional psychology, applied for a position as a correctional counselor trainee in Alabama. An Alabama statute required that state correctional facility employees maintain a minimum weight of 120 pounds and have a minimum height of 5 foot 2 inches. Correctional counselors’ primary duty was to maintain security and control over inmates through constant supervision and observation. In addition to the height and weight requirements, correctional counselors were required to have a valid Alabama driver’s license and a high school or equivalent degree, have no physical defects, and fall between the ages of 20.5 and 45 years at the time of employment. Outside these criteria, correctional counselors were selected by merit, based on education and prior experience. They were not subject to any written exam. Rawlinson was denied employment because she did not meet the minimum weight requirement. She sued the Alabama Board of Corrections (the State) (defendant) under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., alleging that the statutory height and weight requirements, though facially neutral, functionally operated to disproportionately exclude women from employment in the State’s correctional facilities. The district court found that when combined, Alabama’s statutory height and weight requirements would exclude 41.13 percent of the United States female population but less than 1 percent of its male population. The district court concluded that Rawlinson made a prima facie showing of unlawful sex discrimination, which the State did not sufficiently rebut. The State appealed directly to the United States Supreme Court, arguing that the district court erroneously permitted Rawlinson to rely on generalized national statistics to make a prima facie case rather than requiring more specific statistical evidence about actual correctional counselor applicants in Alabama. The State further argued it had successfully rebutted Rawlinson’s prima facie case by showing that the height and weight requirements were job related.

Park, K-Sue, Conquest and Slavery in the Property Law Course: Notes for Teachers (July 24, 2020). 2020. Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works. 2298., Available at SSRN: https://ssrn.com/abstract=3659947 or http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.3659947

This piece contains ideas for teaching about the foundational place of the histories of conquest and slavery to American property law and the property law course. I begin by briefly reviewing how these topics have been erased and marginalized from the study of American property law, as mentioned by casebooks in the field published from the late nineteenth century to the present. I then show how the history of conquest constituted the context in which the singular American land system and traditional theories of acquisition developed, before turning to the history of the American slave trade and the long history of resistance to Black landownership that its abolition fueled. Here, I suggest ways to correct for the tendency of traditional property law curricula to focus exclusively on English doctrines regulating relations between neighbors, rather than the unique fruits of the colonial experiment -- the land system that underpins its real estate market and its structural reliance on racial violence to produce value.

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 2000e et seq., does not require that a plaintiff’s statistical showing of disparate impact be based on characteristics of the actual job applicants.

Reproductive Rights and Race

Roberts, Dorothy E. 1997. Killing the black body: race, reproduction, and the meaning of liberty. New York: Pantheon Books.

In 1997, this groundbreaking book made a powerful entrance into the national conversation on race. In a media landscape dominated by racially biased images of welfare queens and crack babies, Killing the Black Body exposed America’s systemic abuse of Black women’s bodies. From slave masters’ economic stake in bonded women’s fertility to government programs that coerced thousands of poor Black women into being sterilized as late as the 1970s, these abuses pointed to the degradation of Black motherhood—and the exclusion of Black women’s reproductive needs in mainstream feminist and civil rights agendas.

Vernellia R. Randall, Teaching Diversity Skills in Law School, 54 St. Louis U. L.J. 795, 799 (2010) (discussing Teaching Objectives #3: Diversity/bias-Conscious Legal Pedagogy)

Class, disability, gender, race, religion and sexual preference issues are such an integral part of our society (and the legal profession) that we often overlook how the law affects individuals with different backgrounds differently. In a diverse society, such as ours, understanding of how different class, disability, gender race and sexual preference are affected differently by the law is essential. This is true whether the person is a defendant, plaintiff, lawyer, juror, judge or law student. Diversity skills should be a normative part of the value system of the practicing attorney.
