We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.

Were there issues in the past? Yes. But the whole world was like that during boomer times.
This was almost 20 years ago. Times have changed. Today’s youth are a lot more sensitive. You will be ostracised if you make a comment at a black football player or cricketer, be it at a stadium or while watching with friends on TV. In fact, NLUs are highly progressive and inclusive spaces today, where neither explicit comments not microaggressions based on race, caste, colour, ethnicity, nationality, religion, creed, gender, sexuality or medical and mental conditions will be tolerated. But the comment shows it was not always like this. You have to wonder if some Gen Y people from NLUs who are today partners, leaders and whatnot still harbour certain prejudices.
