This Law School Professor Knows Not Everyone Has The Same Rights In This Country
The truth about how the legal system works.
Do you believe that, fundamentally, everyone in this country enjoys the same rights? How naïve. When it comes to privacy rights, poor mothers are put in a no-win position and the liberties others enjoy are an impossibility for them.
In the latest episode of The Jabot podcast, we talk with Khiara Bridges, professor at Boston University School of Law, about her latest book, The Poverty of Privacy Rights. In the book, she makes the compelling argument that poor mothers in this country do not have the same privacy rights that wealthy women have.
The podcast is an offshoot of the Above the Law brand focused on the challenges women, people of color, LGBTQIA, and other diverse populations face in the legal industry. Let’s be real — it can suck out there. So we want to create a space where our community can come together share stories, find support and devise strategies.

Our name comes from none other than the Notorious Ruth Bader Ginsburg and the jabot (decorative collar) she wears when delivering dissents from the bench. It’s a reminder that — even when we aren’t winning, we’re still a powerful force to be reckoned with.
Happy listening!
