The Soul of the First Amendment
Thursday June 01, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM ET
Floyd Abrams, Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP
Mr. Abrams, a noted lawyer and award-winning legal scholar specializing in First Amendment issues, examines the degree to which American law protects free speech more often, more intensely, and more controversially than is the case anywhere else in the world, including democratic nations such as Canada and England.

Sea Power: The History and Geopolitics of the World's Oceans
Admiral James Stavridis, The Fletcher School, Tufts University
What are the likely sites of the next major naval conflicts? What are the global challenges that lie ahead?
