Event Reminder: Law Day, Friday, May 1

Date: Friday, May 1, 2009
Time: 1pm - 2:30pm
Location: Members' Room, Jefferson Bldg.
Contact: Barbara Moore, ([email protected])

The Law Library of Congress and the Friends of the Law Library of Congress celebrate Law Day & the Emancipation Proclamation.  What effect did the Emancipation Proclamation have on the Civil War? What inspired President Lincoln to undertake such a sweeping executive order in his first term? Did it have a broader effect on the slave trade throughout the Americas and Europe? These questions and many more will be discussed by Congressmen G.K. Butterfield and Jesse Jackson Jr., Dean Kurt Schmoke and Professor Emeritus Roger Wilkins, with congressional correspondent Kwame Holman moderating.

In addition to material from Rare Books on display, the Manuscripts division as well as Prints and Photographs will display material relating to slavery and the Emancipation Proclamation.

The event is free and open to the public but seating is very limited and advance reservations are suggested at (202) 707-9834, [email protected].

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
