In honor of Banned Books Week, we’re teaming up with the Media Law Resource Center to host a discussion on censorship’s effects on First Amendment rights.

The Censorship Presentation touches upon various types of regulation and censorship relating to both everyday individuals and the press, discussing schools, universities, online issues, television, radio and international variations. This presentation will be given by lawyer Stacy Allen, a partner at Jackson Walker, and will also include an overview of Banned Books Week, including the event’s history and some more recent well-known challenges to books. There will be an opportunity for an audience Q&A following the talk.
