• Just Female: A Global and Local View of Women and Access to Justice by Lesley F. Rosenthal
• Foundation Racial Justice Report: Addressing racial inequality is pivotal to the success of the Foundation’s Rule of Law efforts. Aware that the Rule of Law is a powerful concept that can bring people together in these fractious times, at its meeting on June 12, 2020, the Foundation explicitly embraced anti-racism work as a part of its agenda. Following discussion, the board unanimously voted to raise and dedicate resources to improving racial justice as part of the Foundation’s focus on strengthening the Rule of Law in New York State.
