Christensen Law Appellate Attorney Stephanie Arndt asserts that educational institutions violate the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act of 1976 when they fail to implement prompt and appropriate remedial measures to prevent sexual harassment that they know is occurring within their school. This Act defines Michigan’s civil rights; serving to prevent discrimination in employment, education, housing, public service, real estate transactions, and the use of public accommodations, and to secure equal opportunity for all.

I want to highlight a legal giant whose impact on civil rights and justice in the United States is nothing short of extraordinary, Thurgood Marshall! As an attorney, Marshall argued dozens of cases before the Supreme Court, consistently fighting against racial discrimination and segregation. His legal victories paved the way for progress in civil rights and social justice. ⚖️ #blackhistorymonth #lawyers #jurist #americanlawyer #law #justice #blackhistorymatters #attorneyatlaw #justiceforall #blackhistorymonth2024 #thrugoodmarshall
