Commemorating 160 Years of the 13th Amendment
This year marks the 160th anniversary of the ratification of the landmark 13th Amendment – a defining moment in U.S. constitutional history that officially abolished slavery and reshaped the law; an Amendment that continues to resonate in our courts today.
Join us on Thursday, December 4, 2025, at Salve Regina University for a special educational event bringing together judges, attorneys, law clerks, legal scholars, law students, and members of the public.
