Local Law 1 of 2001 (domestic violence)
NYC Human Rights Law
This legislation prohibited employment discrimination against victims of domestic violence. The legislation did not provide protection against housing discrimination.
The idea that we fundamentally have more things in common than we have differences; that it is important to cross borders of race, ethnicity, class, and geography; that no neighborhood is the preserve of any one racial, ethnic, or religious group; and that all forms of illegal discrimination must be fought, wherever and whenever they manifest themselves. Once upon a time, it was called the Civil Rights Movement.
