Now in its thirtieth year of publication, BGLJ is guided by an editorial policy that distinguishes us from other law reviews and feminist journals. Our mandate is to publish feminist legal scholarship that critically examines the intersection of gender with one or more axis of subordination, including, but not limited to, race, class, sexual orientation, and disability.

Some states, like California and Washington, have implemented biological monitoring programs for certain pesticide classes in an effort to protect farmworkers in those states [101, 102]. What these state programs have identified is cause for concern; in cases where pesticide exposure resulted in physiological effects to workers, many were not even the result of a violation of the WPS or the pesticide label, suggesting that following the directions on the label is not necessarily protective of pesticide harm [103]. Since some pesticide exposures can lead to adverse effects in the absence of readily noticeable symptoms [104], biological monitoring is absolutely necessary to prevent or reduce harm from chemical exposure.
All-powerful God, you are present in the whole universe and in the smallest of your creatures. You embrace with your tenderness all that exists. Pour out upon us the power of your love, that we may protect life and beauty. Fill us with peace, that we may live as brothers and sisters, harming no one. O God of the poor, help us to rescue the abandoned and forgotten of this earth, so precious in your eyes. Bring healing to our lives, that we may protect the world and not prey on it, that we may sow beauty, not pollution and destruction. Touch the hearts of those who look only for gain at the expense of the poor and the earth. Teach us to discover the worth of each thing, to be filled with awe and contemplation, to recognize that we are profoundly united with every creature as we journey towards your infinite light. We thank you for being with us each day. Encourage us, we pray, in our struggle for justice, love and peace.
Even though the treatment guidelines are extrapolated from largely whitepopulations, they are, as a matter of public health prudence, the best availabletreatments for everyone, regardless of race or ethnicity. Yet evidence suggeststhat in clinical practice settings, minorities are less likely than whites toreceive treatment that adheres to treatment guidelines (Chapters 3-6; seealso Lehman & Steinwachs, 1998;Sclar et al., 1999; Blazer et al., 2000; Young et al., 2001). Existingtreatment guidelines should be used for all people with mental disorders,regardless of ethnicity or race. But to be most effective,treatments need to be tailored and delivered appropriately for individualsaccording to age, gender, race, ethnicity, and culture (DHHS, 1999).
Therefore, this Supplement encourages people with mental illness,regardless of race or ethnicity, to take advantage of scientific advancesand seek effective pharmacological treatments for mental illness.As part of the standard practice of delivering medicine, clinicians always needto individualize therapies according to the age, gender, culture, ethnicity, andother life circumstances of the patient.
Title IX was enacted as a follow-up to the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The 1964 Act was passed to end discrimination in various fields based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin in the areas of employment and public accommodation.[6][7] The 1964 Act did not prohibit sex discrimination against people employed at educational institutions. A parallel law, Title VI, had also been enacted in 1964 to prohibit discrimination in federally funded private and public entities. It covered race, color, and national origin but excluded sex. Feminists during the early 1970s lobbied Congress to add sex as a protected class category. Title IX was enacted to fill this gap and prohibit discrimination in all federally funded education programs. Congressman John Tower then proposed an amendment to Title IX that would have exempted athletics departments from Title IX.[citation needed] 2ff7e9595c
