Live art and the audience: toward a speaker-focused freedom of expression
Article Abstract:
The government should not use audience-oriented standards to determine whether live art should be subject to First Amendment protection from laws regulating obscene or indecent speech. Artistic speakers should be allowed to consider art on their own terms and their sincerity in declaring an expression to be artistic should be always be given First Amendment protection. Courts should restrict artistic expression only if it poses a danger unrelated to the message of the artistic speech.

Envisioning a future for reproductive liberty: strategies for making the rights real
Article Abstract:
Women will have to develop political strategies in order to establish the right for them to control their reproductive choices by law and in the courts. Past political struggles that women have fought, such as their campaign to win the right to vote, to legalize birth control and abortion, and the failure to pass the Equal Rights Amendment to the Constitution, reveal techniques women must adapt to their present fight to keep abortion legal and prevent restrictions on its access.
