A judge conceded the law was written to serve white interests.

Evidence

One judge said, “We’re wrong for not giving this woman redress. And we’re not giving a redress by allowing her to go back and file for this emotional distress and punitive staff that the laws were made by white men who have a purpose in the outcome of these decisions or an interest in these decisions.” — Tamara Lanier, From These Roots, 1328
