This virtual event is not just a social hour. While there will be informal networking between 5:30 and 6:00 p.m. next Tuesday, October 26, the Advocates Society will present an "interactive discussion" with Wisconsin Judge Richard Ginkowski, the host of the ABA Gavel Talks Podcast, entitled, "It's No Joke: Respect for Lawyers and Judges Here and Abroad."
"Even when the jokes stopped," event organizers say, "Polish-American lawyers still feel the effects of decades of discrimination." Participants will be invited to share their experiences. The program will also look at "the crisis of the Polish government’s nonstop assault on a free and independent judiciary."
A $25 suggested donation is requested for registrants, although judges will be admitted on a complimentary basis. For more information about the event, or to register, start at this page of the Advocates website.
