Chicago is home to the largest population of Palestinian Americans in the U.S. Is the community optimistic that having the DNC in town amplifies their concerns?

In bringing the Smithsonian’s "The Bias Inside Us" exhibition to campus, California Western School of Law (CWSL) is creating the space for critical conversations on the intersections of bias, privilege, law, and justice. As part of this ongoing community engagement project, CWSL is proud to announce that we will be hosting a panel featuring Professor Emily Behzadi Cárdenas and George Fatheree, in which they will discuss the long-term impacts of bias and racial discrimination on property ownership and what can be done to shift the material conditions of historically marginalized communities. George Fatheree is a social impact entrepreneur and trailblazing attorney committed to closing the wealth gap through home ownership. He is most notably recognized for securing the landmark return of the Bruce’s Beach property, marking the first time that the U.S. government has returned property taken by racially motivated eminent domain. Professor Behzadi Cárdenas’s scholarship revolves around the convergence of cultural heritage law, human rights, and social justice. Her recent publication, National Security or National Origin? The Implications of Florida’s Alien Land Law Under the Federal Fair Housing Act, addresses ongoing efforts to codify discriminatory housing practices, exposing the cultural biases that underly them. This event is both in-person and virtual. Virtual registrants will receive the Zoom link prior to the event (MUST RSVP to receive the link). This event is made possible in part by the Law, Equity, Inclusion, and Diversity fund. "The Bias Inside Us"—an exhibition and community engagement project from the Smithsonian—is an exploration of the science and consequences of implicit bias and an opportunity to learn how to challenge bias in the world through awareness of one’s own bias.
