Please join APALSA, BLSA, and LLSA for a panel discussion on the state of voting rights. Ahead of the upcoming election, panelists from Southern Poverty Law Center, Asian Americans Advancing Justice, Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund, and Brennan Center for Justice will discuss the recent wave of voter suppression laws as well as current efforts to defend voting rights, including the cases currently at the Supreme Court.

This convening is open to all invitees who are compliant with UChicago vaccination requirements and, because of ongoing health risks, particularly to the unvaccinated, participants are expected to adopt the risk mitigation measures (masking and social distancing, etc.) appropriate to their vaccination status as advised by public health officials or to their individual vulnerabilities as advised by a medical professional. Public convening may not be safe for all and carries a risk for contracting COVID-19, particularly for those unvaccinated. Participants will not know the vaccination status of others and should follow appropriate risk mitigation measures.
