39 Berkeley J. Gender L. & Just. [i] (2024)

handle is hein.journals/berkwolj39 and id is 1 raw text is: From the Editors We are incredibly proud to present Volume 39 of the Berkeley Journal of Gender, Law & Justice. We extend a heartfelt thanks to our wonderful membership and Editorial Board. Their hard work and dedication come through in the work we publish. Even amid the stresses of law school and the world at large-where unimaginable violence against oppressed communities has become even more normalized- our members have continued to show up with empathy, grace, and a steadfast commitment to uncompromised justice. . We also thank those who have contributed to our online blog, Under Deconstruction, as it has remained a place where our members can respond to current developments in the law. We are especially grateful to our readers, who continue to support our journal; this work is fundamentally about coming together and building community, and our readers are a critical part of our efforts. Finally, we acknowledge the work of our predecessors as we continue to build on their remarkable contributions to our journal. Volume 39 grapples with the challenges of an increasingly hostile legal landscape and offers a vision for how we may continue to fight for a more just world. It has long been apparent that the interests of lawmakers, judges, and administrators are not aligned with those relegated to the margins. This Volume represents our ongoing pursuit to amplify the struggles and voices of those most impacted by implicitly and explicitly gendered regressive laws and policies. We begin Volume 39 with the powerful words of Rocio Madrigal, a community outreach coordinator in the Central Valley, in We have to hope that things will change. Ms. Madrigal sheds light on the poverty, pesticides, medical injustice, and labor exploitation farmworkers in the Central Valley face everyday, while at the same time, highlighting necessary policy solutions and the resilience and joy present in her community. Professor Yxta Maya Murray interviewed Ms. Madrigal for this article to challenge the legal community's dispassionate understanding of the grave issues farmworkers face. Murray centers the organic, poignant, and knowledgeable voice of Ms. Madrigal to illustrate the benefits of following community legal thought. Next, resoundingly beloved Berkeley Law Professors, Andrew Bradt and Mallika Kaur, combine their renowned expertise in civil procedure and domestic violence law, respectively, to champion domestic violence tort law as a non- carceral remedy for survivors of domestic abuse. In A Surprising Ally: Harnessing the Power of Procedure in Domestic Violence Tort Cases, Bradt and Kaur introduce domestic violence tort law as a relatively novel remedy, one of both promise
