The Black Law Student Association (BLSA) will be holding a week-long conversation about race relations, policing, and criminal justice. We will be inviting law professors, police, attorneys, and community activists to participate in panel discussions about various issues pertaining to this topic. We will also be analyzing a number of films and current events. This week-long conversation will be broken into four parts: 1) a discussion about what the policing and criminal justice system used to be like; 2) a discussion about where these systems are now; 3) a deeper analysis of what the systems look like in Miami and Florida; and, 4) what a world without policing would look like. Each part of the conversation will take place on a different day, but we invite everyone to take in each event.

Statement of Free Expression

FIU endorses the Florida Board of Governors' Statement of Free Expression to support and encourage full and open discourse and the robust exchange of ideas and perspectives on our campuses. In addition to supporting this legal right, we view this as an integral part of our ability to deliver a high-quality academic experience for our students, engage in meaningful and productive research, and provide valuable public service. This includes fostering civil and open dialogue in support of critical thinking in and out of the classroom, including events hosted by the university.
