At Legal Momentum, we recognize that the fight for gender equality is also a fight for racial justice. We understand that to tackle gender discrimination, we must also address the institutional racism faced by people of color in this country. We know that discrimination in any form puts marginalized groups at greater risk of economic hardship, exclusion, and violence.

We honor the extraordinary legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a pioneer in women’s rights law and among the most celebrated feminist icons of our time. Justice Ginsburg also served as one of our earliest Board members.

Building on 50 years of our work tackling gender inequity, this Brief identifies policy priorities for governments and recommends measures to shape a short-term response to the gendered impact of the pandemic and to facilitate a long-term transformative agenda for inclusive gender equality.
