Can We Waterboard?

Join us this Sunday, November 13th 2016, at the Habeas Steps for the
​Constitution Café: Can We Waterboard?

Donald Trump has vowed to use torture as part of his presidential campaign. "I like waterboarding a lot", he declared just earlier this week. On Sunday we will examine war and the U.S. Constitution with David Glazier of Loyola Law School. We will look at the War Powers Clause and international agreements, including the Convention Against Torture, among other treaties.

David Glazier is a Professor of Law at Loyola Law School and a 21 year veteran with the US Navy as a surface warfare officer. Prior joining Loyola Law School, he was a research fellow at the Center for National Security Law, where he conducted research on national security, military justice and the law of war. He also served as a pro bono consultant to Human Rights First.

Habeas Steps is a seating installation that promotes public-ness and the fine art of hanging out in public. It can be experienced at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery at Barnsdall Art Park as part of the exhibition "S/Election", on view thru January 8th, 2017. Habeas Steps and Constitution Cafés are part of My Daily Constitution, an ongoing public dialogue project that explores our constitutional democracy. ​

Constitution Cafés are free and open to the public. Complementary copies of the U.S. Constitution will be available.
