[blindLaw] JLE Symposium on Disability in Legal Education and the Legal Profession

[James Fetter]

Hi all,

I thought many of you would find this issue 
<https://jle.aals.org/home/>of the Journal of Legal Education of 
interest. It explores in depth the difficulties faced by disabled law 
students and attorneys, and it also explores various solutions. It came 
out a couple of weeks ago, despite the stated publication date of Fall 
2021. I wrote one of the articles, also attached here for your convenience.

Needless to say, employment discrimination remains far and away the most 
significant barrier to entry into, and upward mobility within, the legal 
profession for blind law students and attorneys. Perhaps publications 
such as this can slightly increase the glacial pace of change in 
reducing this and other artificial barriers.

Best,

James
