The Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under Law (LDB) is an independent, non-profit, non-partisan civil rights organization based in Washington, DC. It was founded in 2012 by Kenneth L. Marcus. It is named for Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis. Its mission is to advance the civil and human rights of the Jewish people and promote justice for all.
LDB uses legal advocacy, research, and education to combat antisemitism. Its work focuses on campus life for Jewish students, opposing anti-Israel boycotts, and preventing antisemitism in the workplace. It brings and supports cases, files civil rights complaints, and maintains a case materials library. It also runs a Center for Legal Innovation and a law student chapter initiative.
With partners, LDB runs the Campus Antisemitism Legal Line (CALL), a helpline offering free legal help to students facing antisemitism. Its attorneys also share their expertise through webinars, in-person events, publications such as the Brandeis Brief newsletter, and broadcast interviews.
