The HCBA's Law & Literature CLE seminars provide a
unique way to earn your ethics and elimination of bias CLE credits. Led by
experienced facilitators, these popular CLE programs use short articles and
works of fiction as a springboard for active discussions on legal ethics and
bias. Stories will be sent to you once you register and must be read in
advance.
Choose the morning program for the
Ethics discussion, the afternoon session for Elimination of Bias, or sign up for
a whole day and save on registration. Space is limited. Please no
walk-ins, advance registration required.
1:30 PM Elimination of Bias
Session: the overall goal of the Eliminator of Bias program is to
prompt discussion among participants about the ways in which and the extent to
which attorney speech and conduct can be viewed by others as indicating some
degree of bias, prejudice, or insensitivity on issues of racial fairness and
equality. Additionally, the program will involve a facilitated discussion and
thoughtful exploration by participants of a number of topics which bear on the
racial sensitivity of attorney speech and conduct.
*Stories for the
Elimination of Bias portion include:
Good Will by Jane
Smiley
Sonny’s Blues by James Baldwin
*Upon
your completed registration, materials will be sent to you for advance
reading
