Hi friends, comrades, and assorted feds,

I'm coming up on the end of a thoroughly wasted undergrad, and it's looking like I'm going to end up at law school.

I know that a better, more socialist society cannot and will not be established through the judicial system alone, but I nonetheless want to contribute in some way through a career in law. So in your opinion, is Labor/Employment Law a valid way of doing this? Representing the interests of Unions or individual employees against their employers?

Would it be better to attack some other aspect of our societal injustice? Immigration law, Civil Rights or so on? Open to any kind of thoughts you might have, I haven't read enough theory yet myself to be 100% sure about this.

    From what I've experienced in my short time in the legal field thus far, immigration law and labor law are the fields to be in if you want to genuinely help people. Maybe criminal law too if you can focus on defense.
