Featuring Professor Jane Kirtley, Silha Professor of Media Ethics and Law at the School of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Minnesota

In a reversal of Clinton Administration policies, the U.S. Justice Department has recently identified "hard-core pornography" involving adults as a top prosecutorial priority. Some observers have suggested that the Department?s goal is not only to crack down on hard core pornographers, but to rewrite the Constitutional definition of obscenity. And the issue is by no means limited to one political party. Senators Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) have both launched legislative initiatives aimed at stamping out pornography.

Come join Professor Kirtley and the ACS chapter for a fascinating discussion on the impact this new "War on Porn" will have on freedom of expression.
