November 21: Investigating Personal Injury Claims

The world is a dangerous place. And while falling down in your teens is often funny, falling down when you’re grown-up hurts, and people are often injured. Combine that fact with an increasingly litigious society, and we have arrived at a time where personal injury claims are common. When there is a claim, someone needs to figure out if the condition is a danger and render a thoughtful opinion about whether or not it caused or contributed to the fall.
In this program, we'll provide a panoramic view of handling personal injury claims, offering you a strategic understanding of the entire process. We'll introduce a structured framework for conducting professional investigations specific to the built environment, ensuring you're equipped with effective methods to approach these intricate cases. Through engaging case studies, we'll illustrate real-world scenarios, bringing the theoretical framework to life.
Join us as we dissect the nuances of personal injury claims from legal, insurance, and construction angles, providing you with a holistic perspective. By listening to professional insights, you'll gain a deeper knowledge that will undoubtedly enhance your expertise.

November 18: How a Bill Becomes a Law: Federal Prison Reform in the 118th Congress

In recent history, Congress passed two of the most significant reforms to the Federal Bureau of Prisons in decades: the Federal Prison Oversight Act and the Prison Camera Reform Act. The genesis of this bipartisan productivity traces to a damning public record created years prior by reporting from the Associated Press and a series of bipartisan Congressional investigations into dysfunction, corruption, and abuse in Bureau facilities across the country.
On Monday November 18, 2024, NYU JLPP and the Brennan Center for Justice will present a moderated panel with key figures behind the reforms. 

Attorneys seeking CLE credit and law students will gain insights into the interactions between press, advocacy, and Congress that created a new bipartisan consensus surrounding federal prison reform. Those interested in investigative reporting and advocacy, administrative law, legislation, compliance strategies, government relations, and more are encouraged to attend.

November 14: From Tokyo Rose to the China Initiative: Espionage and AAPIs

Asian Americans have long been accused of spying for foreign countries and engaging in acts of treason. In 1949, Iva Toguri D’Aquino was tried for treason in San Francisco—as the infamous “Tokyo Rose.” Years later, she was pardoned. In 1999, Dr. Wen Ho Lee, a scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory, was arrested and accused of being a spy who had given U.S. nuclear secrets to China. Although he eventually pleaded guilty to one count of mishandling national defense information (after spending 278 days in confinement under harsh conditions), the sentencing judge apologized to him on behalf of the United States.
More recently, during the China Initiative, the government arrested individuals of Asian descent with great fanfare, only to eventually drop or drastically reduce the charges in many of the cases. When the end of the “China Initiative” was announced in 2022, there was some skepticism that it was truly over, skepticism that was shown to be justified earlier this year as some members of Congress sought to revive it. 

Will the China Initiative now be revived?
The Center on Asian Americans and the Law at Fordham Law School will explore the issues presented by the government's prosecution over the years of Asian Americans for espionage and treason at its Third Annual Fall Symposium. We will first examine several historic cases and follow with a panel discussion on the government's more recent actions.

November 21: Youth Power and Restorative Justice in NYC Public Schools

The Center on Race, Law, and Justice, Dignity in Schools Campaign-NY, and The Circle Keepers invite you to learn about restorative justice - a transformative way to cultivate healing and culturally responsive public school cultures, practices, and policies. Punitive school discipline policies reinforced by school police, metal detectors, detentions, and suspensions contribute to oppressive school cultures that disproportionately criminalize Black, Brown, LGBTQIA+, and low-income students. Across New York City Schools, culturally responsive mental health specialists and programs are inaccessible, and sadly, many teachers have only been trained how to cultivate punitive disciplinary systems that translate into damaging classroom management practices and regressive funding policies. These policies and practices lead to systemic profiling and punishment, creating conditions where students of color face regularized and systemic violence. Restorative justice programs offer a transformative approach, centering youth power and leadership to foster restoration, safety, and healing.

For many live events, credit approval is not received prior to the program.
