“Let’s Kill All the Lawyers”: Lawyers in the Crosscurrents
Date & Time
Thursday, September 4, 2025, 4:40 PM - 5:20 PM
Description

Lawyers today find themselves at the intersection of profound global change. From the rise of generative AI and escalating environmental crises to intense political polarization, from Trump-era politics to global democratic backsliding, our role is under greater scrutiny than ever. Are we advocates, gatekeepers, ethical stewards, or something more? This session will reflect on the evolving place of lawyers in society, asking what responsibilities we carry, how we can remain relevant, and where we might need to take a stand.
