2012 Cannabis Law Reform Conference
Currently, Oregon has three initiative campaigns competing for signatures, fundraising, and volunteers, all hoping to qualify for the November ballot; the Oregon Cannabis Tax Act (OCTA), Sensible Oregon, and Citizens for Sensible Law Enforcement (I-24).
In order to propel the Oregon marijuana legalization movement forward, Oregon’s SSDP chapters have come together to host the 2012 Cannabis Law Reform Conference on February 25th here at our own Lewis & Clark Law School campus.
During the conference, Oregon SSDP will put on a neutral, non-confrontational debate between the initiatives in order to educate the public and Oregon’s SSDP members about the different aspects of each campaign.
Whether you have been involved in SSDP or not thus far, if you desire a world free from cannabis prohibition where farmers may grow hemp, entrepreneurs may utilize hemp to create up to 50,000 different products, students may no longer worry of suspension or denial of scholarships because of marijuana, and consumers may fuel legitimate, legal businesses, come. Come and learn. Come and participate. Come and engage.

Andrea Ritchie
The National Lawyers Guild, OUTlaw, the Black Law Students’ Association, and Women’s Law Caucus present Queer (In)justice: The Criminalization of LGBT People in the United States.Join us in Room 2 on March 13 at 12:15 pm, where NYC police misconduct attorney Andrea Ritchie will speak about the book she co-authored, Queer (In)justice: The Criminalization of LGBT People in the United States.The book is “a groundbreaking work that turns a “queer eye” on the criminal legal system. Drawing on years of research, activism, and legal advocacy, Queer (In)Justice is a searing examination of the queer experience—as criminal defendants, prisoners, and survivors of violent crimes. The authors unpack queer criminal archetypes– like “gleeful gay killers,” “lethal lesbians,” and “disease spreaders”– to illustrate the punishment of queer expression, regardless of whether a crime was ever committed. And tracing stories from the judicial bench to the streets and behind prison bars, the authors prove that the policing of sex and gender both bolsters and reinforces racial and gender inequalities.”Andrea Ritchie is a police misconduct attorney and organizer who has engaged in extensive research, writing, speaking, litigation, organizing, and advocacy on profiling, policing, and physical and sexual violence by law enforcement agents against women, girls, and LGBT people of color in the US and Canada over the past two decades.
