A dynamic panel including a top journalist, legal practitioners, and senior executives in sports dives into social justice issues in the field and their legal implications, extending the discussion of a Showcase CLE program at the ABA Business Law Section’s 2022 Hybrid Spring Meeting (now available as on-demand CLE). With Jeffrey Schlerf leading the discussion, the panelists—Sterling Hawkins, Terence Moore, Ashley Hibbett Page, and Ty Thomas—weigh in on a broad range of trends. Their conversation ranges from athlete activism and discrimination lawsuits, to league policies that contribute to DEI issues, to legal developments in the realm of name, image, and likeness for collegiate athletes, and more.
