Comcast vs Byron Allen Supreme Court Hearing Analysis

Armstrong WilliamsDecember 5, 2019

“I’m not a lawyer, but it seemed clear to me that the Justices (Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was absent because, in the words of Chief John Roberts, she was “indisposed due to illness”) thought the issue was what the pleading standard for a §1981 claim should be, not at this point whether Comcast had racially discriminated against Byron Allen.” — Armstrong Williams

Wendy’s Window: “No Room For Mediocre”

Wendy Gladney, Contributing WriterNovember 15, 2018

Madeleine Albright said, “There is plenty of room in the world for mediocre men, but there is no room for mediocre women.” History will show 2018 as the year of the woman. Whether we look at what came from the #MeToo Movement or the results from the midterm elections where a record number of women around the country were voted to various positions. People have fallen in love with Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and when she fell and broke several ribs, we were even willing to give up our own to help her heal. We have examples all around us every day of women who are anything but mediocre. Even when we fall, we get right back up.
