Friend,

Our country has a serious, deadly, and racist police brutality problem.

Yet even in the most extreme circumstances, officers are rarely held accountable — in part because of a rule the Supreme Court created decades ago.

Absolutely unacceptable. When police commit violence against those whom they are meant to protect, they must be held accountable. Period. Yet Qualified Immunity, a principle that appears nowhere in the Constitution, makes it all too easy for police to evade accountability.

Tomorrow (Monday, June 15) at 8pm ET, join Rep. Ayanna Pressley and leading experts and advocates from the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Emory University School of Law, Columbia University, Constitutional Accountability Center, Center for Popular Democracy, and Demand Justice for a conversation about Qualified Immunity — and what we can do as we work to end this Supreme Court-created doctrine.

Together we can raise our voices in demanding an end to Qualified Immunity once and for all.

Hope to see you on Zoom tomorrow night,

Robert
