<h2>Multiple Marginalization in the Criminal Justice System Before, During, and After Prison</h2><h3>Join us virtually for an insightful discussion about how various identities impact an individual&#x27;s journey throughout the criminal justice system.</h3><h3>Friday, October 8, 2021</h3><h3>11 AM - 2 PM, EST</h3><h3>Via Zoom</h3>Those who are accused of crime are already at risk of discrimination or disparate treatment because of their charges. Multiple marginalization refers to the stigma and discrimination that affect individuals who are also members of historically oppressed groups. The Symposium will bring together a diverse group of legal scholars, including Professor Jeffrey Fagan of Columbia Law School, to engage in discussions about how an accused’s multiple identities, including race, disability, age, gender identity, and sex, intersect with the criminal charges against the individual.In the aftermath of George Floyd’s killing, and the deaths of many others at the hands of law enforcement, it is critical to discuss the ways that many of those accused of crimes are multiply oppressed in order to inform our collective and individual perspectives on our criminal justice system, and ultimately on how we can effectuate change. The Symposium is part of the Law Review’s commitment to social justice and anti-racist education, and, we hope, a step forward in our school&#x27;s pursuit of becoming an actively anti-racist institution. The St. John’s Law Review will feature Symposium panelists who are prepared to write and speak about how individuals of “target” or historically oppressed identities are disparately impacted by the criminal justice system pre-sentencing, while serving prison sentences, and when reentering society.<h3>Schedule</h3>Opening Remarks | 11 - 11:10 a.m. | Opening Remarks by Dean Michael A.
