The Legal Network for Gender Equity and the TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund hosted this webinar “On TIME’S UP Legal Defense Fund’s Third Anniversary – Is It Time to Redefine Sex Harassment?” on Tuesday, January 12, 2021.

The presentation brought together leading academics, litigators, and policy advocates to discuss promising changes to state and local anti-harassment laws over the past three years and proposals for rethinking what it means for sex harassment to be “severe or pervasive” given the evolution of the common understanding of sex harassment since the #MeToo movement went viral.

Our speakers included:
• Miriam F. Clark, Esq., Partner, Ritz Clark & Ben-Asher LLP
• Jennifer Liu, Managing Partner, The Liu Law Firm, P.C.
• Distinguished Professor Joan C. Williams, Founding Director of the Center for WorkLife Law, University of California, Hastings Law
• Mariko Yoshihara, Policy Director and Legislative Counsel, California Employment Lawyers Association
