SUMMARY:Maryland Fellows Virtual Lunch Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to attend. Open to Fellows and nominees only.  \nFeatured Keynote: “Critical Race Theory: Context\, Controversy\, and Call to Action” with Richard Bell (Professor of History\, University of Maryland) \nSuddenly\, everyone is talking about Critical Race Theory\, a set of premises developed by legal scholars decades ago to interpret America’s institutions in the context of race and civil rights. Yet what exactly is CRT? This talk with University of Maryland Professor of History Richard Bell aims to locate the origins of CRT\, establish its core premises\, describe the recent controversy\, and introduce participants to a list of practices that CRT scholars believe all of us can adopt to mitigate the worst legacies of slavery in our supposedly post-slavery world. \nThe Fellows gratefully recognize:

SUMMARY:New York Fellows Virtual Lunch Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \nFeatured Keynote: “The Emotional Influence of Gruesome Photographs in the Courtroom” with Janice Nadler (ABF Research Professor; Nathaniel L. Nathanson Professor of Law\, Northwestern Pritzker School of Law) \nLawyers\, judges\, and juries are faced with a barrage of evidence and arguments displayed in visual form – sometimes gruesome in nature. Courtroom images can influence beliefs\, emotions\, and judgments in ways that have yet to be empirically examined. Join us as we explore how emotionally evocative modes of visual evidence can affect the psychology of jurors’ decision making processes—through influence on emotions\, attention to evidence\, and legal judgments at the individual and group level. The results of two experiments conducted by ABF Research Professor Janice Nadler have shown that gruesome photographs of a murder victim can increase the propensity to convict\, with an increase of conviction dependent on race. This presentation will further examine the extent to which gruesome photographs limit juror attention to evidence rousing negative emotions\, and present potential safeguards that may mitigate the prejudicial effect of this type of visual evidence.

SUMMARY:Fellows CLE Research Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Register with the ABA \n1:00pm PT / 2:00pm MT / 3:00pm CT / 4:00pm ET \nFellows CLE Research Seminar (CLE Requested): “Democracies and International Law” with: \n\nTom Ginsburg\, ABF Research Professor; Leo Spitz Professor of International Law\, University of Chicago\nRachel Cichowski\, Professor\, Department of Political Science and Law\, Societies & Justice Department\, University of Washington\nDongsheng Zang\, Associate Professor of Law\, University of Washington School of Law\n\nModerated by: \n\nDavid Tang\, Managing Partner\, Asia\, K&L Gates\n\nDemocracies and authoritarian regimes have different approaches to international law\, grounded in their different forms of government. As the balance of power between democracies and non-democracies shifts\, it will have consequences for international legal order. Human rights may face severe challenges in years ahead\, but citizens of democratic countries may still benefit from international legal cooperation in other areas. Based on the recent publication of Democracies and International Law by ABF Research Professor Tom Ginsburg\, this research seminar surveys the state of democracy-enhancing international law\, and provides ideas for a way forward in the face of rising authoritarianism.

SUMMARY:Oregon Fellows Virtual Event
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \nJoin us after the presentation as we welcome new Fellows! \nFeatured Keynote: “Alternative Legal Professionals and Access to Justice: Failures\, Successes\, and an Evolving Innovation” with Stephen Daniels (ABF Research Professor) \nAccess to justice is an endemic problem and the traditional solutions have long shown themselves to be inadequate. As the 2017 Oregon State Bar Futures Task Force said\, “Despite more than two decades of efforts to encourage pro bono and unbundled legal services\, the problem has grown.” This underscores the need to think boldly about potential “innovations” for attacking the problem. An idea once anathema (even odious) to the legal profession is gaining traction (mostly in western states\, Oregon among them) –trained\, licensed non-lawyers authorized to perform “substantive law-related work” without an attorney’s supervision. Boldness\, however\, doesn’t assure success. Pursuing this innovation necessarily involves a leap of faith; but if states are seen as laboratories for innovation\, then tracking and analyzing the evolution of this bold idea in different states will provide insights into its future\, shape\, and workability. Despite the demise of the Washington State LLLT program\, the innovation itself has taken on a life of its own and is evolving – perhaps in unforeseen ways.

SUMMARY:New York Fellows Virtual Lunch Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \nFeatured Keynote: “Halfway Home: Race\, Punishment\, and the Afterlife of Mass Incarceration” with Reuben J. Miller (ABF Research Professor; Associate Professor\, University of Chicago Crown Family School of Social Work\, Policy\, and Practice) \nEach year\, more than half a million Americans are released from prison and join a population of twenty million people who live with a felony record. Professor Reuben Miller\, a chaplain at the Cook County Jail in Chicago and now a sociologist studying mass incarceration\, spent years alongside prisoners\, ex-prisoners\, their friends\, and their families to understand the lifelong burden that even a single arrest can entail. What his work revealed is a simple\, if overlooked truth: life after incarceration is its own form of prison. The idea that one can serve their debt and return to life as a full-fledge member of society is one of America’s most nefarious myths. Join us to hear Professor Miller’s research exploring the notion that America must acknowledge and value the lives of its formerly imprisoned citizens.\n\n\n\nThe Fellows gratefully recognize:

DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \n11:00 am PT / 12:00 am MT / 1:00pm CT / 2:00pm ET \nFeatured Keynote: “Building the Rule of Law: Firsthand Accounts from a Thirty-Year Global Campaign” with: \n\nElizabeth Anderson\, ABF Fellow; Executive Director\, World Justice Project\nMichael E. Flowers\, ABF Life Fellow; Director of Diversity and Inclusion & Attorney\, Steptoe & Johnson PLLC\nHomer Moyer\, Senior Counsel\, Miller & Chevalier Chartered\n\nModerated by:  \n\nJames Silkenat\, ABF Patron Fellow; Director & Treasurer\, World Justice Project; Partner\, Sullivan & Worcester LLP\n\nJoin the ABF to learn more about the story of an unprecedented volunteer effort that answered calls from around the world for rule of law assistance. Over the past 30 years\, more than 5\,000 unpaid volunteers\, ranging from young lawyers to Supreme Court Justices\, have responded through a series of initiatives often likened to a “rule of law Marshall Plan.” Hundreds of volunteers lived abroad without pay for a year or more in challenging\, occasionally dangerous\, circumstances. These inspiring efforts\, still ongoing\, have now extended to more than 100 countries. They have strengthened the rule of law and\, in the process\, changed the lives of countless people around the world\, as well as the lives of scores of American volunteers.

SUMMARY:New York Fellows Virtual Lunch Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \nFeatured Keynote: “Dog Whistle Politics: Past\, Present\, and ’22” with Ian Haney Lopez (William H. Neukom Fellows Research Chair in Diversity and Law; Chief Justice Earl Warren Professor of Public Law\, University of California\, Berkeley) \nIan Haney López teaches in the areas of race and constitutional law\, and is one of the nation’s leading thinkers on how racism has evolved since the civil rights era. His current research emphasizes the connection between racial divisions in society\, and growing wealth inequality in the United States. In Dog Whistle Politics: How Coded Racial Appeals Have Reinvented Racism and Wrecked the Middle Class (2014)\, Haney López details the fifty-year history of how politicians exploit racial pandering to fracture social solidarity and ultimately convince voters to support rule by the rich. Join us to learn more about how the political manipulation of coded racism has evolved\, and how an evidence-based approach to neutralizing political racism can build cross-racial solidarity.

SUMMARY:New York Fellows Virtual Lunch Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \nFeatured Keynote: “The Scandal of Predatory Cities” with Bernadette Atuahene (ABF Research Professor; Professor of Law\, Chicago-Kent College of Law) \nPredatory cities are urban areas where public officials systematically take property from residents and transfer it to public coffers\, intentionally or unintentionally violating domestic laws or basic human rights. Although this practice affects many urban areas\, US legal scholarship has almost completely overlooked the phenomenon of predatory cities. Against a backdrop of vulnerability\, certain legal and governance failures created structural opportunities for predation to advance at scale. Using Detroit as a case study\, this presentation identifies\, defines\, and examines this phenomenon\, which scholars and policy makers must begin to better understand and address. \nThe Fellows gratefully recognize:

SUMMARY:New York Fellows Virtual Lunch Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \nFeatured Keynote: “Civil Rights in America: A History” with Christopher Schmidt (ABF Research Professor; Associate Professor of Law\, Chicago-Kent College of Law) \nThe term “civil rights” has such a familiar presence in discussions about American politics and law that we tend to use it reflexively and intuitively\, but rarely do we stop to think about what exactly we mean when we use the term and why certain uses strike us as right or wrong. In this presentation\, Professor Christopher Schmidt tells the story of how Americans have fought over the meaning of civil rights from the Civil War through today. Through their struggles over what it means to live in a nation dedicated to protecting civil rights\, each generation has given the label new life and new meaning. Join the ABF to learn more about how the words we use to understand our world become objects of contestation and points of leverage for social\, political\, and legal action. \nClick here to purchase “Civil Rights in America: A History”\nEnter code SCHMIDT20 at checkout for 20% off! \nThe Fellows gratefully recognize:

SUMMARY:New York Fellows Virtual Lunch Program
DESCRIPTION:This event is free to registerees.  \nFeatured Keynote: “Why the Innocent Plead Guilty and the Guilty Go Free and Other Paradoxes of Our Broken Legal System.” with Hon. Jed S. Rankoff (Senior Judge\, US District Court\, Southern District of NY) \nHow can we be proud of a system of justice that often pressures the innocent to plead guilty? How can we claim that justice is equal when we imprison thousands of poor Black men for relatively modest crimes but rarely prosecute rich white executives who commit crimes having far greater impact? Join the ABF as Judge Jed Rakoff\, a leading authority on white-collar crime\, examines why innocent people plead guilty\, why high-level executives aren’t prosecuted\, and why the judiciary is curtailing its own constitutionally mandated power. This presentation will demonstrate the best aspects of our legal system\, the failure to live up to these ideals\, and the opportunity for practical reform to make our justice system truly just. \nThe Fellows gratefully recognize: \n \n
