Crisis or Catalyst? Courts, Communities, & Our Democracy.
Extremists are attempting to weaponize the law in federal and state courts across the country, seeking to replicate the US Supreme Court's reversal of reproductive rights & weakening of civil & voting rights leveled on communities nationwide. Will the next 25 years be a catalyst for change in the courts? Panelists will discuss the role of the courts in our communities & how people & organizations can better use the law as a catalyst for a bold, vibrant democracy for all people.
