Duke's 2020 Symposium: The Second Amendment's Next Chapter | Duke University School of Law
Duke Center for Firearms Law will host its annual symposium this fall in partnership with The Northwestern University Law Review. The symposium-the Second Amendment's Next Chapter-will explore the future of the Second Amendment. It has been over a decade since the Supreme Court decided a significant Second Amendment case and, with the new addition of Justice Kavanaugh to the bench, and another justice soon to join, the Court could be ready to start a new chapter for the right to keep and bear arms. This symposium will examine, among other topics, the Second Amendment's role in private and public spaces, the socio-political environment, and urban gun violence. The keynote address will be given by U.S. Senator Chris Murphy.
