Event Description
The 2023 MLK Forum will raise awareness about the continued injustices impacting Black and Brown communities, as a result of racist systems and institutions that were designed to oppress them.  Esteemed panelists will establish the need for health and safety reforms that will not only protect the constitutional rights of all Illinois residents, but will also create safer communities throughout the state. 

Through a discussion about current and developing Illinois legislation and policies designed to meet these goals, our guests will present ways in which law students, lawyers and members of the community at large can get involved in the fight for equity and freedom.

The panel conversation will be followed by a brief Q&A and a light reception
