Good afternoon and thank you to the American Intellectual Property Law Association for inviting me to speak to you all today. It is an honor to help you kick off this year's Virtual Spring Meeting.
As intellectual property practitioners, each of you plays a part in a tradition that is centuries old and considered so essential that the Founders placed it in the Constitution.

Rayshard Brooks did not have to die. His life mattered. But if there is anything the past six years has taught us, it is that too many police departments and elected officials throughout the United States, the lives of black people do not matter.
