Listen in: Join Us in Court (Remotely) as We Defend Activists' Right to Organize Safely on Campus

On Thursday, March 11, the Los Angeles Superior Court will hear arguments in a case where activists are urging the court not to force the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) to publicize the names of presenters at the 2018 National Students for Justice in Palestine Conference. Find out more about the case here and here.

Advancing Justice – Asian Law Caucus staff attorney Javeria Jamil will be representing the activists at the hearing, which is scheduled to start at 9:30 a.m. PT. Palestine Legal is co-counsel in the case, along with the Law Office of Matthew Strugar.
