Lambda Symposium 2023: The State of Antidiscrimination Law
Penn Carey Law Lambda is proud to announce that registration is open for this year’s Lambda Symposium on Sunday, February 19th at Penn Carey Law. The theme of this year’s Lambda Symposium is “The State of Antidiscrimination Law.” We welcome attendees from Penn Carey Law, the University of Pennsylvania, the Philadelphia community, and around the country. The Symposium will be held in person with the option for virtual attendance via Zoom. Attendance is free - register below!
Recent and upcoming Supreme Court cases, such as Masterpiece Cakeshop and 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis, cast doubt on the strength of antidiscrimination and public accommodations laws protecting LGBTQ+ people. Our Symposium will explore topics related to these cases on a local, national, and international level. The Symposium will feature discussions about these cases, local community organizing around antidiscrimination ordinances and school board policies, law firm culture and policies supporting LGBTQ+ employees, and the landscape of LGBTQ+ antidiscrimination law internationally. Speakers will include legal scholars, practicing attorneys, community organizers, and business administrators. The Symposium seeks to educate professionals, students, and scholars about the state of antidiscrimination law now and its application to LGBTQ+ people across different contexts.
