To celebrate Women’s History Month, nearly two hundred attendees gathered at the Eastern District Courthouse on March 11, 2026, with even more on Zoom, to learn about the legal rights afforded to women from the time of the Declaration of Independence through the modern day. The esteemed panelists were Loyola Law Dean Madeline Landrieu, LSU Law Dean Caprice Roberts, Tulane Law Dean Marcilynn Burke, Tulane Law Professor Saru Matambanadzo, and Loyola Law Professor Courtney Turkington. Discussions included the status of women’s rights in 1776 when the Declaration of Independence was written, the evolution of employment laws, the treatment of women’s property rights, the voting and political activity of women, and centuries of reproductive regulations. The presentations concluded with a group discussion led by Chloé Chetta.
