This annual lecture honors the life and work of Robert H. Kirschner, noted forensic pathologist and a founder of the UChicago Pozen Family Center for Human Rights.
David Cole is the National Legal Director of the American Civil Liberties Union. As a professor at Georgetown University and attorney with the Center for Constitutional Rights and the ACLU, he has litigated issues involving the use of secret evidence, the protection of flag-burning as political speech, supporting the free speech rights of immigrants, and against the suppression of peace advocacy criminalized as “material support for terrorism.”
This event is presented by the Pozen Family Center for Human Rights and cosponsored by the International House Global Voices Program.
