My motto, justice is made flesh by what we do, inspires my teaching, consulting, training and activism. I am currently teaching courses in public law, digital defamation and counter-terrorism. I am also a lecturer in the USC CREATE Homeland Security Centre of Excellence, Executive Program on Counter-Terrorism.

I am the first Black woman to sit on the Law Society of Upper Canada--the governing body for 47,000 lawyers in Ontario, Canada--in its 218 year history.

In June of 2014, I was the successful plaintiff in a case of malicious online defamation that has been upheld by the Supreme Court of Canada.

Susan is Faculty Associate of the Berkman Center for Internet and Society. She founded the Dangerous Speech Project, to study speech that inspires intergroup violence - and to find ways to prevent this *without* infringing on freedom of expression - and she does research on how to counter hateful and harmful speech online.
