    The ABA Civil Rights and Social Justice Section and the Reconstructionism Project of the ABA Center for Human Rights are co-hosting a non-CLE webinar series exploring the significance of the Reconstruction era (1865–1877) in shaping civil rights, justice, and equality in the United States. The series will examine attempts to undermine the progress of this pivotal period and highlight the lessons and inspiration it offers for addressing contemporary challenges. Structured around the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments, the program aims to equip lawyers with fresh perspectives on the U.S. Constitution and its potential to drive societal transformation.

    Speakers:

    • Barrett Holmes Pitner  Philosopher, Journalist, Educator; Author, The Crime Without a Name: Ethnocide and the Erasure of Culture in America
    • Aziz Rana - J. Donald Monan, S.J., University Professor of Law and Government at Boston College Law School; Author, The Constitutional Bind: How Americans Came to Idolize a Document That Fails Them
    • Etienne Toussaint (Moderator) - Associate Professor of Law, University of South Carolina Joseph F. Rice School of Law
