Uniting Justice and Freedom - The ACLU’s Mission in a Divided America

Young Hall (113)

What happens when the pursuit of justice collides with the protection of individual freedoms? Amber Duke, Executive Director of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Kentucky, joins us for National Free Speech Week to delve into the complex interplay between the protection of civil liberties and advancement of social justice.

How does the ACLU navigate this apparent tension, ensuring that the push for societal progress does not come at the cost of freedoms that underpin our democracy? Through an examination of its past and present work, Duke will address how the ACLU strives to protect individual freedoms while also addressing the urgent demands for societal progress.

As part of the Citizen Power Tools series, Duke introduces advocacy and activism as one of many empowering forms of democratic engagement.
