Tribe Denounces Spoof as Hateful

Several women in the audience said the parodyissue made them feel further alienated from aschool they see as already dominated by men.

"We just don't belong here as women," one womansaid.

But in response to Tribe's suggestion that theLaw Review be boycotted next year in orderto "undermine its legitimacy," Rebecca Eisenberg,a Law Review member, said that feministscholars need to work with the journal to helpfurther their cause.

"There is value to working within the system,"Eisenberg said. "What we want is more people whoare willing to put themselves on the line."

Towards the end of his speech, Tribe encouragedthe audience to do more than just complain aboutthe parody.

"There has been a slow-burning Holocaustagainst women all the time," Tribe said. "Wecannot allow ourselves to be silenced."

"Much, much more needs to be done," Tribe said,encouraging students to respond in an "uninhibitedcounter-demonstration."

After the question period, members of theJewish Law Students Association voted to breakprecedent and take an official position on theReview parody.
