At the Judith S. Kaye Service Awards, representatives of the New York State Bar Association honored the recipients for their dedication to democracy and the judicial system. The event emphasized the significance of Law Day, encouraging lawyers to reflect on their responsibilities to protect democracy and inform citizens, particularly the youth, about civic engagement. The association is hosting a Civics Convocation to tackle media literacy, addressing the challenges posed by misinformation in a digital age, demonstrating their commitment to public education and strengthening democratic values.
Our obligations include speaking out not only because it is our right but because it is our duty as proud Americans and New Yorkers.
As lawyers, we have a role to play in ensuring and promoting the rule of law, as well as imparting knowledge to all citizens.
