The Office of the Dean, in conjunction with the Liman Center, LSO, the Justice Collaboratory, and schools across the University, will be hosting a series of panels to examine the impact of the Derek Chauvin trial. We invite all members of the YLS community to attend. Each panel will feature experts in the fields of racial justice, criminal justice, and police reform. The discussions will explore the wide-ranging legal and societal implications of the killing of George Floyd, the subsequent legal proceedings, and recent verdict. At a time of significant unrest, uncertainty, and trauma that has disproportionately impacted our friends, students, and colleagues of color, we hope to help bring the community together for a period of reflection, learning, and solidarity. Please join us.
