The Tenth Annual James M. Nabrit Jr. Lecture Series is April - TopicsExpress



          

The Tenth Annual James M. Nabrit Jr. Lecture Series is April 9! It is hard to believe that the Nabrit lecture series is marking its tenth anniversary! Over the past ten years, we have welcomed Supreme Court Justices Breyer, Kennedy, Ginsburg, Thomas, Sotomayor, and Kagan. Weve heard civil rights icons like Charles Ogletree and William Coleman deliver rousing speeches. Weve hosted White House officials and judges from other courts. And we have welcomed educators and scholars, like Angela Davis, who teach the law to future generations of lawyers. All to honor the legacy of James M. Nabrit Jr., a champion civil rights lawyer and the man who some say, put an end to the separate but equal doctrine that applied to schools. This year we are pleased to host Chairwoman Edith Ramirez of the Federal Trade Commission (12:15pm), who will talk about your consumer rights, and Director-Counsel Sherrilyn Ifill of the NAACP LDF (4:00pm) who will talk about Brown v. Board of Education 60 years later and the ongoing struggle for civil rights. Read more about our lecture series and join us at the law school on Wednesday, April 9!
