Vermont Law Review Presents: “Free Speech on Trial: Resisting Censorship in 2025”
October 3 @ 3:30 pm – October 4 @ 12:30 pm EDT

In celebration of its 50th volume, Vermont Law Review proudly presents its annual symposium, “Free Speech on Trial: Resisting Censorship in 2025.”
This dynamic event will feature four panels examining pressing First Amendment issuesโexecutive power and academic freedom in contemporary governanceโthe Pico v. Island Trees case and book banning in schools across the United States, a comparative panel with African artistic freedom of expression, and the rapidly evolving intersection of artificial intelligence and free speech in democratic societies.
The symposium is free and open to the public. Both in-person and livestream attendance options are available. The livestream links will be shared on this page prior to the event.
