📚 Lecture: “Constitutional Law 101: Due Process, Free Speech, and More”

🎤 Speaker: Professor Ian Lowell Heller

The Constitution is essentially the by-laws for the United States, yet many of us often hear terms like "Due Process," "Equal Protection," and "Freedom of Speech" without a clear understanding of their origins or implications. Join Professor Ian Lowell Heller for an illuminating evening that demystifies these key concepts and explores their evolution over time.

This engaging talk will address significant questions such as: What does it mean when scholars suggest that the Constitution was essentially overhauled in 1868? How do the Civil War Amendments contribute to our understanding of the Constitution as a "second Constitution"?

From the increasing powers of the presidency to the implications of landmark cases like Citizens United, this is the perfect opportunity for both newcomers and those looking to refresh their knowledge of the most influential legal document in modern history.

Don’t miss this chance to gain valuable insights into constitutional law and its relevance today!
