2025 Symposium

The Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice is excited to announce that our annual Symposium, Conservative Caution v. Progressive Originalism: How Justices Barrett and Jackson and Paving Their Own Paths on the Court, will be held on March 7, 2025, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM!

We have planned three panel discussions covering key topics related to Justice Jackson and Justice Barrett’s recent jurisprudence, including gun rights and presidential immunity. For the gun rights panel, we intend to focus on New York Pistol Association v. Bruen and Rahimi v. United States. The presidential immunity panel will discuss Trump v. United States. Lastly, we plan to have an additional panel dedicated to exploring the judicial ideologies of Justice Jackson and Justice Barrett, specifically examining how their theories of constitutional interpretation diverge from other justices.

This event will feature seven, highly esteemed panelists, such as Pulitzer Prize winner Linda Greenhouse, Constitutional Law experts Eric M. Freedman, Earl M. Maltz, and Michael Waldman, and Gun Rights Specialists Mark Anthony Frassetto, William Araiza, and Jake Meiseles. The event will be moderated by Cardozo Law Professors: David Rudenstine, Haiyun-Demon Feng, and Michael Pollack.

The event will be held in person and CLE credit will be available for those who attend. Please register through this link: https://lnkd.in/eJKqP8MF
