Constitution Conversations with The NY County Lawyers Association: Freedom of Speech is a public workshop and discussion held in the Whitridge Room of the New York Society Library, free of charge with registration required. It was developed by the New York County Lawyers Association, founded in 1908, and is presented by the Library in cooperation with that association as part of its Collective Witness season marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Two experienced lawyers will introduce recent events and offer nonpartisan background on the constitutional points and lawsuits involved, then facilitate conversation among participants. This session addresses freedom of speech and the right to assemble under the First Amendment, including the constitutionality of the Secretary of State's revocations of green cards and visas and threatened deportations of lawfully resident non-citizens who expressed disfavored views or joined demonstrations.
