Chapter 68 (2/2)
Because on her mother's body, she saw fresh scars all over her body, but no one took these seriously. Aimo had to rely on herself to find out the truth.
While studying hard, while investigating the cause of her mother's death, Aimo finally collected enough evidence to find the whereabouts of the man when he was about to graduate.
”Your honor, I want to defend myself as a litigant. I am a student of Harvard Law School, and will soon...” In court, Aimo tried to defend himself.
But the answer she got was, ”reject the application.”
There was even a cruel irony in the jury, ”what can a woman do?” ”They should go home and do the housework.”
”They can also use it to have children, ha ha...” ”No, no, it's to satisfy men's desires, followed by children...”
As a result, Aimo lost the case. The jury did not even see her evidence, but decided the case by relying on the man's remarks.
”You son of a bitch, bichi, I will find you, and I will let you know the price of offending me.” The demonic curse was introduced into the brain again, and Aimo just sat there, as if he had lost his soul.
”Prestige, status Rights, if I have higher rights, I can make them pay attention to them, and no one can despise me any more. ” There was a raging flame in Aimo's eyes.
Learn, learn, learn. Amo appeared in every court. Hundreds of notebooks were filled with the analysis of the case, the skills and words of both sides.
At the same time, her performance in the school is more excellent, even the pressure of other students can not lift their heads, so as to attract the attention of many tutors.
In the end, she received seven mentors, including the dean of the law school, and she chose the unknown but royal lawyer.
As an advisor, he wrote a complaint and analyzed the case. He was more and more experienced and showed more and more coldness.
With her selfless help, her mentor's reputation spread throughout Europe, until one day, the tutor looked at her and asked, ”do you want to join the Royal lawyers?”
Aimo smiles with relief and nods firmly.
When she stood in the court again, the sharp words and tricky questions made the judge and the jury speechless. At that moment, Aimo was brilliant.
She finally avenged her mother. The man who haunted her for 16 years was sentenced to death for murder, perjury and violence.
At the end of the trial, the moment the crowd left, she did not realize how bleak her future was.
”No, you can't follow up on this case...”
”No, these are not things you can touch...”
”There's no need for women here. Go away...”
”Go and tidy up the files! You don't need your help here. ”
”This is my case. Get out of here...”
Emo's performance is too eye-catching. Her sharp words make judges and juries vulnerable. She is isolated from the team and the legal profession.”Stupid woman who doesn't know good or bad,” was the judge's private evaluation of her after the trial.
”And you don't have a good position here, Aimo. You don't have a good position?” This is the answer she got from her mentor.
Aimo tried to contact the outside law firm, wanted to get a job, but she suddenly found that there were no female lawyers in these law firms.
Even if there are sporadic women in it, they just do some work of sorting out documents, receiving, serving tea and pouring water.
Until now, Aimo realized clearly that the biggest reason why she was isolated was not eye-catching performance, but simply because she was a woman.
During the first World War, due to the excessive labor shortage, the finance minister launched a women's war campaign to let more women go out of their homes and work in factories.
But they can get half as much as men, and they need to finish two or three times as much work as men.
There is no labor contract, there is no legal provisions, everything comes from the willingness of both employers.
Since then, women have demanded fair treatment, but they have never been responded to.
During the war, 1.5 million women worked in full-time jobs with low pay and heavy work.
When the war was over, many soldiers returned from the cruel battlefield and found that their jobs were occupied by women.
”Women have to go.” ”Women get out of the factory.” ”Give me my job, bichi.” They're delivering that voice.
Over the course of the next year, 80 percent of women lost their jobs and men regained their jobs.
The resistance of the women's unions has been increasing, and the authorities can no longer ignore their existence.
At the end of the 19th century, Congress was forced to pass three bills, allowing women to run for Congress, to enter Oxford or Cambridge, and to grant women over 30 the right to vote.
It seems to have won a key victory, but in fact, under the circumstances at that time, all the women who lost their jobs were basically under the age of 30.
The passage of the bill did not bring any changes in their lives. Even in order to revenge women's ignorance and arrogance, some areas imposed more stringent blockades on women.
At the beginning of the 20th century, Charing Cross Hospital lacked a large number of doctors, but they still insisted on rejecting female medical students.
In the fields of finance, medicine, research and law, such hidden rules are also applied.
It was only in 1928 that women really got equal voting rights.
However, the actual social status has not changed. It is precisely because of seeing through the connection, emo, who is unwilling, chooses to come to the United States of America to look for opportunities in this new country.
She wants to win the dignity that she should have, she wants to look down on those arrogant men, she wants to become the lawyer that everyone looks up to.
Now, she has been given such a chance.
PS: female discrimination in foreign countries was very common in the first half of the 20th century, and it was not until the 1970s and 1980s that the real significance of discrimination against women was improved.
Even worse in the 19th century or before, interested friends can learn about it by themselves.
