Tragedy

Not law school related, but I guess you could call it legal related, because of the violence. It feels like every week we have gun violence. And now I’m watching the news about a hate crime less than a couple of miles away. It started out with a couple of guys harassing two girls, asking them if they want to have sex, and then their friend, a fifteen year old African American male stepped in to try and stop the harassment, and instead got beaten so badly he was hospitalized.
In a tragic moment, we see the strong connection between sexism and racism.
