Lawyer Chapters, StopRepeatingHistory.org, the Austin Bar Association, the Houston Bar Association (Supporter), and the Asian American Bar Association of Houston for a two-part event on The Soul of America.\n\nThe program will be centered around the HBO documentary (The Soul of America) of Jon Meacham's book The Soul of America- The Battle for Our Better Angels and the events of January 6 at the nation's Capitol.

Registrants will receive information on how to screen the film and will be invited to join us for a panel discussion with respected legal scholars and practitioners to discuss the role that the law (and lawyers) played in past crises and division and how they can pave the way for "better angels" to prevail to build a more antiracist society and an America that lives up to its ideals.\n\nWith Remarks From: \n\nHon.
