Liman Director Jennifer Taylor on Building Community
Jennifer Taylor ’10 became the new Director of the Liman Center in May. Previously, she was a Senior Attorney at Equal Justice Initiative, in Montgomery, Alabama.
On Monday, September 12, 2022, the Liman Center will co-host Echoes of Attica, a music/theater performance about the 1971 prison uprising and its aftermath, followed by a panel discussion about U.S. prisons, past and present. The event is free and open to all; in compliance with University COVID protocols, guests without a Yale University ID are required to register in advance by emailing Liman Center Director Jennifer Taylor.
The Quinnipiac-Yale Dispute Resolution Workshop series will kick off this academic year with the session “America in One Room: Bridging the Climate Divide” with Alice Siu, Associate Director of Stanford's Deliberative Democracy Lab, and Bill DeVane Logue, Senior Fellow and Director of Training Programs at the Quinnipiac Law School Center on Dispute Resolution, on Wednesday, September 28, 12:00-1:30pm, via Zoom.
In this session, Siu will discuss the process and results of America in One Room: Climate and Energy, the largest controlled experiment with “in-depth deliberation” ever held in the U.S., and what the experiment concluded about the path to establishing the Lab's goal: "a world where forming policy is less about cutting through red tape, and more about listening to people for building a better tomorrow." Logue will serve as commentator, and there will be time for questions and comments from the audience.
