BLB&G Partner Rebecca Boon, Senior Counsel Michael Mathai, and Associate Kate Aufses will present to Harvard Law School students on "Fighting Workplace Sexual Harassment with BLB&G: Tracing the Harm from Jeffrey Epstein and Roger Ailes" on March 22, 2022. They will discuss how they prosecuted claims on behalf of shareholders against Twenty-First Century Fox’s board for ignoring patterns of sex and race discrimination after employees filed sexual harassment claims against Roger Ailes, Bill O’Reilly, and others; and will further cover their suit against L Brands’s board for permitting a culture of sexual misconduct after the disclosure of CEO Leslie Wexner’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Rebecca Boon is among the BLB&G attorneys who has become a thought leader on the issue, as seen in recent articles published in Responsible Investor and Law360. She also frequently presents to other law schools around the country discussing how securities litigation can be used as a tool for social justice, and recently presented at Harvard Law School's Roundtable with fellow attorneys Michael Mathai and Ryan Dykhouse on "How Securities Litigation Can Be a Tool for Social Justice."
