#72: Judicial Discrimination & Cleaning Up The Judiciary

Join me for a candid yet also inspirational discussion with Aliza Shatzman about judicial discrimination & the changes needed within our judiciary.

Aliza Shatzman is the President and Co-Founder of The Legal Accountability Project, a nonprofit aimed at ensuring that as many law clerks as possible have positive clerkship experiences.

In today’s interview, Aliza shares her gut-wrenching personal story of having to deal with gender discrimination, harassment, and retaliation by a former DC judge. And how that closed the door to her big legal dreams.

But it doesn’t end there. Today's story is also about courage and resilience.

Here's what we cover:

--> Life lessons around how to be courageous in the face of daunting odds and bounce back after thinking you’ve lost out on your dreams.

--> How victims of judicial discrimination are treated (and why so few file complaints).

--> Why we’re ALL impacted (and our profession is tarnished) by judicial discrimination.

--> The truth about how women in law treat other women when it comes to discrimination (that must be addressed honestly).

--> How you can make a difference to increase judicial accountability.
