Norman Thomas Memorial Lecture
Tuesday, April 11, 12 p.m.
Maynard Hall, Guthery Community Room
"Civil Liberties in the Age of Trump" presented by Mike Brickner, Senior Policy Director for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) was founded in 1920 to ensure the promise of the Bill of Rights and to expand its reach to people historically denied its protections. In The ACLU's first year, it fought the harassment and deportation of immigrants whose activism put them at odds with the authorities. In 1939, the ACLU won in the Supreme Court the right for unions to organize. The ACLU stood almost alone in 1942 in denouncing the U.S. government's round-up and internment in concentration camps of more than 110,000 Japanese-Americans. And at times in U.S. history when frightened civilians have been willing to give up some of their freedoms and rights in the name of national security, the ACLU has been the bulwark for liberty.
The ACLU has grown from a roomful of civil libertarians to more than 1 million members, activists, and supporters across the country. The ACLU is now a nationwide organization with a 50-state network of staffed affiliate offices filing cases in both state and federal courts. The ACLU appears before the Supreme Court more than any other organization except the Department of Justice. Mike Brickner, Senior Policy Director, will discuss the various immigration orders, the use of private prisons, the setbacks we have seen with the Departments of Justice and Education, etc, as well as the important current work of the ACLU.
The event will be followed by a lunch in the Dean's Board Room from 1-2p.m.
COMPAS Talk with Dr. Amartya Sen: What's Wrong with Inequality?
Tuesday, April 11, 4-5:30 p.m.
Maynard Hall, Guthery Community Room
This event will be a livestream from the Mershon Auditorium in the Wexner Center for the Arts on Columbus campus. Dr. Amartya Sen received the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1998, and in 2012 became the first non-American in history to be awarded the National Humanities Medal by President Barack Obama. Dr. Sen will be discussing the value of inequality-aversion judged as a basic human concern and to what extent it might conflict with other human values, such as economic efficiency and freedom.
