Senior Managing Attorney Shane Kadidal will be participating on a panel, “Guantánamo: The Future,” as part of the University of Brighton conference, Guantanamo: 20 Years After.

The discussion will focus on how President Biden’s stated intention of closing Guantánamo can be fulfilled, looking at the three categories of prisoners still held: those approved for release, those still languishing as “forever prisoners,” and those charged in the military commission trial system.

Panelists

Professor Jonathan Hafetz, Professor of Law at Seton Hall Law School

Nancy Hollander, Internationally recognized criminal defence lawyer who represented Mohamed Ould Salahi when he was detained in Guantánamo

Shane Kadidal, Senior Managing Attorney at the Center for Constitutional Rights and habeas counsel for detained men

Dr. Maha Hilal, Researcher and writer on institutionalized Islamophobia and co-director of the Justice for Muslims Collective.
