What does it mean to practice law in partnership with social movements?

Join us for a conversation with Ybarra Maldonado, Founder of Ybarra Maldonado Law Group, as we explore the role of lawyers in grassroots organizing, immigrant defense, and abolitionist movements. From direct representation to community-centered advocacy, this discussion will examine how legal work and movement building intersect — both in the courtroom and on the ground.
