About this product: 

Lift Every Voice Book by Lani Guinier

In 1993, shortly after his inauguration, new President Bill Clinton nominated his old friend and classmate Lani Guinier to the prestigious and crucial post of Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights.
That nomination sparked an immediate firestorm of criticism from the right, labeling Professor Guinier the "Quota Queen" and assailing her for the ideas expressed in her publications, most of which her opponents had not read, or had taken out of context and misunderstood.

Above all, Guinier goes on to describe how her experience at the hands of the press, the White House, and her congressional enemies has given her both a new voice and a renewed faith in the ongoing struggle for civil rights. Her book is an extraordinary account of just how the civil rights movement acquired its strength, drawn from the courage of "ordinary" people standing up against fearful odds for what was right, and from the commitment to make change happen from the bottom up, relying on the wisdom and common sense of those at grassroots level. Using her own nomination as a symbolic point of reference, she shows just how weak and divided the cause of civil rights has become, as its leaders have all too often been silenced by the very people they should be challenging.

Lani Guinier lectures widely on issues of civil rights, social justice, and democracy. Currently Professor of Law at the University of Pennsylvania, she will join the faculty at Harvard Law School, beginning in Fall 1998. The author of The Tyranny of the Majority: Fundamental Fairness in Representative Democracy and coauthor of Becoming Gentlemen: Women, Law Schools and Institutional Change, she now lives in Philadelphia with her husband and son.
