When the Law Is not the Law:
Part 2

Join our discussion on When the Law is not the Law, our panel will explain how the heightened and restricted measures to limit voting rights, women rights over their bodies, the active censorship of books by authors of colors and the erasure of Black, Brown, Native American and other disenfranchised group history is ignoring human rights inherent to a democratic society. The overt dismantling of these rights diminishes our individual and collective rights when our rights are violated.
