| Video Discription | This is a "Law Lessong" - a law lesson in a song - that I wrote to help students consider the issues surrounding a claim under the 14th Amendment's Equal Protection clause. More "Law Lessong" videos will be posted at the Legal Studies Classroom blog: http://legalstudiesclassroom.blogspot.com/ The melody is based on "Walk Like an Egyptian" written by Liam Sternberg and recorded by The Bangles: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walk_Like_an_Egyptian No copyright infringement is intended. This song is offered and intended for educational use only and has no commercial value. Equal Protection Words by M. DeAngelis Tune: Based on "Walk Like an Egyptian" A state may act in a way, That divides its citizens. Gives benefits (to one group) But others treated different. If the distinction's based on race, The court will strictly scrutinize. If history shows, (suspect class) Discrimination has applied. To the court you will resort and (oyez, oyez, oyez oyez) Sue for Equal Protection If your claim is the state Treats men and women differently No suspect class (Oyez, O) But intermediate scrutiny The state must be seeking goals Found substantial by the court And the distinction (oyez, o) They use must give direct support. If the state can't relate their (Means and ends-o, ends and means-o) Sue for Equal Protection If its business that the state Has targeted to regulate. Then distinctions (Oyez, O) Need only rationally relate. As long as the law is not Arbitrary or insane. The court is sure (Oyez, oh) To let the state have free reign Businessfolks, they make no jokes and (rational basis, favors states') Sue for Equal Protection |
