Peter B. Edelman, Kirra L. Jarratt, Stuart Yasgur, and Juan R. Thomas

Concluding the Economic Justice Summit, Section Chair Juan R. Thomas speaks with Georgetown University Law Professor Peter B. Edelman, DC Bar Foundation Chief Executive Officer Kirra L. Jarratt, and Ashoka Leadership Group Member Stuart Yasgur and discusses the lessons we’ve learned from the two-day conference and what lawyers, advocates, students and anyone interested in making an impact on economic justice can do to help.

This panel was a part of CRSJ’s hybrid Economic Justice Summit — held on March 30-31, 2023 — the Section held its Economic Justice Summit at the Georgetown University Law Center. Continuing with CRSJ’s 22-23 Bar Year theme of economic justice, this two-day Summit convened lawyers, activists, policymakers, and key stakeholders to formulate policy solutions to our country’s most critical economic disparities and devise strategies to implement such policy solutions.
