the case fink recommends, i realize i am familiar with.
yes, yes.

my educator brainiac friend/consultant dan diamond helped me look up all these
people
http://laccd.edu/contact_us/
who because of having goofy old school web design won't properly publish the emails for making a report.  so i'll have to call first.

and he recommended too http://www.splc.org/ who so far have failed to write me back.
fun, fun!

excited about making an equality coalition that is specifically anti-racist, anti-sexist, anti-homophobic, and anti-islamaphobic.

so honored to be getting the attention of los angeles's pre-eminent sexual harassment litigator.
he is sending me legal homework.  i love it!!!!!  i want to intern with him.  he sued dov charney for workplace harassment. lol.

email response this morning re the sexual harassment legal theory of the future and the sexist version of Jim Crow, where we are told it's equal and supposed to believe it, but it is clearly not.

dear fink!!!! (sent 3-24-10 7 am)
"thanks so nice to hear from you

thanks for the homework.

my particular interp i realize would allow for true and real equality and abandonment of all epithet and degrading terms.

i realize that is counterculture and might be difficult to litigate.

what inspired me to contact you too was this recent

http://jonathanturley.org/2009/02/15/los-angeles-city-college-sues-over-christian-based-presentation-in-speech-class/

which just settled.

the kid who made the homophobic speech is getting paid for being called a "bastard," which to me is a pretty meaningless old word.

but the fact that the admin is probably ignoring the CA AB 1825

BASIC PROVISIONS OF CALIFORNIA'S AB 1825

Two Hours of Training Every Two Years

The deadline for the first round of AB 1825 training was December 31, 2005. Thereafter, employers must provide two hours of sexual harassment training to each supervisory employee, every two years.

is GNARLY TO ME.

if i have to go to class and hear whore, slut, n*****, hooker, i really do not find this fair and equal.  how much more hostile could the atmosphere get????

an educational fair use argument only goes so far if coupled with sloppy academic standards and specific targeted ridicule of the black women in the class.

whether or not it is worth your time, or abides by this PC/antiPC free speech/hate speech grey zone, to me is unimportant compared to the larger issue at play involving school admin's failure to safeguard against suit.

even if the courts ruled in LACC's favor, the legal expense and waste of resource could easily be prevented by having educated, careful, and sensitive education of professors.

this is fiscal irresponsibility.

this walking into a danger zone of potential litigation, which is happening in many departments, to me shows lack of administrative oversight.

whether the alleged discrimination is provable to a sexist court by sexist white CEDAW-rejecting misogynist america, is less critical than the fact that, admin is failing the taxpayer by paying huge claims for clearly preventable dangerous speech situations, where professors act totally oblivious to any concern for legal repercussions.

the irony of this happening in the paralegal department does not escape me, but these aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer here.

i will read the san bern case and have already read a lot on the issue, with similar effect as you describe.

quite aware.

my quest for litigatory activism is defiant of the norms which sanction this constant belligerent atmospheric attack on women and their integrity in the workplace and school.

to me, this is similar to the sexist version of Jim Crow.

where everyone is trying to tell me how equal it is for me to shut up and get called a slut, whore, hooker, etc.

the fact of the matter too is that i grew up in the luxury of a far more educated atmosphere than this.

i find this jerry springer style approach to teaching an academic failure most of all, regardless of the litigability of the offensive speech.

i am looking forward to extracting more stories from other students.

the doormat culture is pervasive, but the discomfort is high.

these poor kids need a liberation from LACC's pathetically low standards.

i appreciate your support so much fink.

i really also appreciate the gravity of dov charney's propaganda exploits against you, and admire the fact that you would risk the repercussions of suing the goebbels of trashy ad campaigns.

that he so effectively has tried to defame you, bespeaks highly of his propaganda skills, his lack of dignity, and hatred of women.

thanks for being there to take hits, on our behalf.

i have more emails too i may forward.

i will try to dig thru them for relevant stuff.

i find it tedious how losery the school is.

p.s. may forward to other specific people in the district.

I will have to study these e-mails. However you should read Cohen v. San Bernadino. Merely because a Professor says something non PC (even something some perceive as sexist or racist) doesn't mean he has violated Title IX or Title VI. You need to focus on the specific statements and the context they were made.
