Auschwitz is not far off under the ideology that is Donald Trump & family
and if you're an ethical person of color living in the U.S., everyday in the U.S. is a personal Holocaust
and where we are headed is far worse than any place that we've been before
this is not to say that we shouldn't still fight, but
make no mistake: this is Sodom and Gomorrah

This is how I flip the bird:
Shout out to the American women so invested in trying to keep other women down. 

I have to win a lawsuit. So, I haven't been able to fully commit my time to growing my business in the way that I have normally dedicated myself to tasks. I came across this video from 2015, while preparing to make a statement on the vision and goals that I have set for 2018. In looking back, I'm not where I used to be but not where I should be. 

Only a power and money hungry SOB would pretend such problem are more complex than they truly are. (The bad news is that we're surrounded by too many power and money hungry SOBs.)

And now I have to go slay dragons and win a lawsuit. (Clearly the 'good' advocates of equality and justice currently in power don't care too much, because we're still having this discussion today.)

Bailey v. New York Law School et al. 

"You're in the system." Said the woman at the crises center. "You've been assaulted before." 

You need only look at my complexion, skin, and hair to see that I've been fighting in court for two years. Only most can't see that: they expect that because I am a woman of color I would naturally show signs of degradation, wear and tear. But it isn't natural for me. 

We fight so that other women will not have to tell this same story. And we will overcome. 
And oh how I wish Bella Caveat was operational right now.

Not long from now, in a week or so, I will delete my personal Facebook account. And I have long awaited this day. At least from the time that I mentioned that I had been assaulted on New York Law School's campus by Stephen Nesbit in 2014, and Howard Meyers--lawyer, professor, and esteemed member of New York Law School--demanded that I remove all social media references to the assault, on behalf of New York Law School's Harassment and Discrimination Review Board, then comprised of Howard Meyers, Erika Wood, and Jeffery Becherer, all employees of New York Law School. 

So, we borrowed from quotes most beautiful from across the globe....

(because women's rights, civil rights, human rights, state and federal law, the U.S. Constitution - for us, it's self explanatory)

"Their victims never had any appeals, nor did their tormentors have any mercy. Consequently these perpetrators don't deserve either." (re: justice for Holocaust victims)

"Democracy...does not mean that minorities can be exploited for the majority's satisfaction." (re: justice for persecuted Rohingya)

"We receive authorities' inaction as tacit consent for hatred directed towards the Jewish community and call upon Polish leadership to punish those whose actions threaten our well-being. As representatives of Polish Jewish organizations, we call on public institutions, police, media outlets, schools, and members of the Polish public to combat anti-Semitism." (re: justice for Jews in Poland)

"Your behavior was cunning, persistent, manipulative and cruel." (from a judicial sentence handed down in Birmingham, the United Kingdom)

"We will continue to demand the resignations of every individual who either participated in the abuse of women or stood by and was complicit by failing to conduct proper due diligence, as legally required...we expect that no new board members will be appointed until every implicated board  member has resigned." (re: beauty pageant contestants addressing their overseeing organization)

"The criminal actions he is accused of conducting on the bodies of these women are his responsibility, and if there is any justice left in the system he will pay for them - regardless of how many good movies, made by many good people, Harvey was lucky to enough to have acquired or financed." (re: American actress on Harvey Weinstein)

Why do these U.S. individuals believe that they are exempt?

PROCEDURAL POSTURE
Bailey v. New York Law School, Anthony Crowell, Barbara Graves-Poller, David Schoenbrod, Ella Mae Estrada, case no. 16-CV-04283

• April 2016 Plaintiff filed suit in New York Supreme Court April 2016.
• July 2016 Case was transferred to the S.D.N.Y. Federal Court, assigned to Judge E. Ramos.
• December 2017 Court Order permitted plaintiff’s case to proceed
• January 2018 Court issued a discovery schedule, plaintiff filed notice of intent to appeal the December Order, which dismissed parties and claims from the case.
• March 2018 Plaintiff submitted first set of interrogatories and document production requests – discovery is actively ongoing (responses due by April 9, 2018)

 
Bailey v. New York Law School, case no. 18-252

• January 2018 Plaintiff’s notice of appeal and record was sent to the Second Circuit and docketed
• March 2018 Plaintiff is awaiting pre-trial conference records from the lower court

Why Now
The plaintiff’s health is an ongoing concern as a result of injuries stemming from this case. The defendants and their counsel have until now largely benefited from the plaintiff’s weakened state, which impacts her performance in this case. The plaintiff is now taking several steps to protect her ongoing interest in the case, including seeking representation willing to pursue a wrongful death action against New York Law School, Anthony Crowell, Deborah Archer, Barbara Graves-Poller, David Schoenbrod, Ella Mae Estrada, Jeffery Becherer, Howard Meyers, Erika Wood, Victoria Eastus, and Oral Hope if plaintiff does not survive. 

This is a plaintiff who has previously sought aid from and reported her injuries to the

• White House
• Mayor de Blasio
• New York Law School (the site where plaintiff was harmed)
• The Board of Education's Office of Civil Rights
• The Police Department 
• The Manhattan DA's Office
• The U.S. Attorney General's Office 
• The Legal Grievance Committee (oversees lawyers' conduct)
• The American Bar Association
• Various attorneys 
• The Southern District of New York's Pro Bono program 
• Time's Up initiative's legal program (operated by the National Women's Law Center)

The plaintiff is a U.S. born military veteran, women of color, marathon runner, and dancer, who has never been in trouble with the law, but who is being treated less-than deserving of justice in order to grant unwarranted immunity to the defendants being sued--a law school and several attorneys and lawyers, and persons intricately involved in the wrong doing cited in her case.

The man who attacked her, Stephen Nesbit, and a male student (Jason Singer) who received favorable treatment worth thousands of dollars directly from Anthony Crowell (law school Dean), harmfully inserted himself and interfered in the investigation of the case at the law school. Both also must be held accountable for their acts.

As a country, we cannot afford to allow our moral values to be bought or influenced by status or any other figure of power. We cannot allow our outrage to be silenced or to mistakenly believe that a wrong committed against one woman will not have ripples.

​April will make two years since I filed a lawsuit against New York Law School. The lawsuit is ongoing (discovery is underway; interrogatories are due March 9). It’s difficult to sum up my feelings and experience in few words, but I can say that the U.S. justice system leaves much to be desired; it’s painful, mentally and physically exhausting, and reinforces what most American-born citizens who are not white understand: declaring yourself a beacon of civil and human rights does not make it so.
