Abstract

It took many decades and just as many bad court decisions before the Supreme Court delivered its verdict in SFFA v. Harvard, revitalizing the foundational meaning of our civil rights laws—equal treatment under the law. Civil rights lawyer R. Lawrence Purdy outlines the steps that must be taken to ensure that this interpretation of the law is permanently ensconced in our jurisprudence and our institutions.
