We are confronted daily with news about a border wall with Mexico, anti-immigration policies, white nationalism, nativism and extremism here and around the world. Learn about these topical issues from the lawyers, policymakers and thought leaders who work on them every day at the New Jersey State Bar Association’s Diversity Summit on June 26 at the New Jersey Law Center.

The daylong conference titled “Diversity at a Crossroads: The Global Rise of Nativism, Nationalism and Extremism,” will feature panels that cover a range of topics, from the future of U.S. immigration to the role of the lawyer in combatting extremism and hate. Robert L. Lattimer, a diversity studies scholar at Rutgers University, will kick off the event with a look at diversity in America and how it is transforming society.
