Join civil rights lawyers and activists, Leslie E. Redmond and Nekima Levy Armstrong, for a critical conversation on the current Administration’s efforts to roll back progress on equity and diverse representation. This episode examines executive actions dismantling DEI initiatives, militarizing law enforcement, and weakening police accountability measures. We explore how these policies impact everyday civil rights and liberties — and how advocates, lawyers, and communities can mobilize to protect hard-won gains. Learn how to stay informed, resist regression, and continue advancing the movement for justice.
CRSJ, in collaboration with the DEI Center and its entities, the Center for Public Interest Law and its entities, the Young Lawyers Division, and other Section Divisions and Forums, is launching a new rapid-response project that will provide videos, resources, and other information breaking down key legal developments by explaining specific actions the government is taking, the legality of these actions, its impact on civil rights and daily life, and steps attorneys and advocates can take to protect our communities.
