SCOTUS in 2023

Hosted by ChangeLawyers, ACS Bay Area, and Equal Justice Society. What can we expect from the conservative legal movement in 2023? And what can be done to prepare ourselves for the most likely outcome? The overturning of Roe v Wade in 2022 was just the beginning. In 2023, the conservative legal movement will have plenty of opportunities to further unravel our rights, including rolling back LGBTQ+ rights and overturning election results— among other potentially explosive decisions. Our panelists will discuss the most alarming cases of 2023, and offer solutions to counter the radical conservative legal movement.

The End of Affirmative Action

Hosted by ChangeLawyers, ACS Bay Area, and Equal Justice Society. In 2022, a newly radical Supreme Court shocked our country by undoing decades of precedent. Up next? Stripping away race-conscious admission policies that overwhelmingly help BIPOC students create a better future for themselves. California already ended affirmative action 30 years ago, and the results have been devastating. Black, Latinx, and Native comprise a smaller percentage of law and medical schools than in the 1990s. Our panelists will discuss the possible outcomes of Students for Fair Admissions (SFFA) v. Harvard, and offer potential solutions to ensure higher education is accessible to BIPOC students.
