Disability Law Symposium – Berkeley, CA

March 22, 2012toMarch 23, 2012

Berkeley Law is hosting a Disability Law Symposium at Boalt Hall, March 22-23, 2012. The focus will be on the intersection of disability and other civil rights constructs such as gender, sexuality, class, race, class, ethnicity and religion. Presentations will be grounded in law (rights, discrimination, equity) or and/or public policy. Their goal is to “re-brand” the field of Disability Rights to encourage students to think of this (1)as a subset of the broader civil rights movement and (2) as part of the larger disability-related disciplines at the University.
