IntLawGrrls
Intlawgrrls are "voices on international law, policy, practice." They "embrace foremothers' names to encourage crisp commentary, delivered at times with a dash of sass. We welcome replies, and we look forward to fresh dialogue on the matters of the day. It's our world, after all."
Author: Posting under their foremothers' aliases are these law professors: Diane Marie Amann, University of California-Davis (Grace O'Malley) who also contributes to Convictions; Elena A. Baylis, University of Pittsburgh (Amelia Earhart); Johanna Bond, University of Wyoming (Mary Harris Jones); Karen E. Bravo, Indiana University-Indianapolis (Nanny of the Maroons); Janie Chuang, American University (Frances Perkins); Mary Coombs, University of Miami (Charming Betsy); Hélène Ruiz Fabri, Université de Paris (Olympe de Gouges); Michelle Leighton, University of San Francisco (Nancy Ward); Elizabeth Lutes Hillman, Rutgers University-Camden (Vera Brittain); Diane Orentlicher, American University (Beatrice); Hari Osofsky, University of Oregon (Mata Hari); Jaya Ramji-Nogales, Temple University (Lakshmi Bai); and Beth Van Schaack, Santa Clara University (Eleanor Roosevelt).
