Pathways to People’s Lawyering A career panel discussion featuring:
Sharlyn Grace Chicago Community Bond Fund
Samoane Williams VISTA Attorney at First Defense Legal Aid
Jason Han JEP attorney at Jason Han Law
Wednesday, March 30 at 12pm Corboy Law Center, 25 E Pearson St, Room 1303 Food and Beverages Provided! What does it mean to be a people's lawyer? How can progressive attorneys help interrupt systems of oppression through their work? How are attorneys working to consciously build organizing power and community leadership in their practice? Join us in a discussion of nontraditional approaches to practicing law and building legal practices through organization-building and programs such as the AmeriCorps VISTA Legal Fellowship and Justice Entrepreneurship Project (“JEP”), and learn how to build crossdisciplinary relationships to the end that "human rights shall be regarded as more sacred than property interests."
